apollaBecause I like stealing from ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
nightfalltwen, because I haven't updated in a while and because I'm Narcissus at the water hole...
1. WHAT COLOR ARE YOUR KITCHEN PLATES? My mother has horrific plates with pictures of fruit on them. I personally hate them with a fiery passion... At uni I have the old crap she doesn't mind me breaking. *grin*. The one I always use is plain, see-through glass/pyrex. One day, I'd like to own dark purple square plates.
2. WHAT BOOK ARE YOU READING NOW? Should be reading about Jim Morrison. Am not.
3. WHAT'S ON YOUR MOUSE PAD? My brother got a Quiddich mouse mat for my birthda. Features Harry hanging off his broom to catch the snitch.
4. FAVORITE BOARD GAME? Monopoly. Am v. sneaky and always win.
5. FAVORITE MAGAZINE? Vanity Fair. Or MOJO. Or Q. Or Empire.
6. FAVORITE SMELL? Don't know.
7. LEAST FAVORITE SMELL? At the moment, frying mushrooms. My brother and his girlfriend have a thing about bloody mushrooms. The smell makes me want to vom.
8. WHAT IS THE FIRST THING YOU THINK OF WHEN YOU WAKE UP IN THE MORNING? I don't wake up in the morning. In the afternoon, my first thought is usually to go back to sleep, followed by switching the telly on to check the showbiz news on teletext.
9. FAVORITE COLOUR? Purple.
10. LEAST FAVORITE COLOUR? Fawn. A colour that should just not exist.
11. HOW MANY RINGS BEFORE YOU ANSWER THE PHONE? Many. It's a long way to the phone from my room.
12. FUTURE CHILD'S NAME? Flynn, Dean, Ava. Also some reference to Beatles, La Monroe and the Emerald Isle.
13. WHAT IS MOST IMPORTANT IN LIFE? Love. All you need is love. Money, I'm told, comes in handy though.
14. OF ALL THE POSSIBLE CIRCLES OF HELL, WHICH ARE YOU MOST LIKELY TO BE ASSIGNED TO? One of the nicer ones, I hope. The one where people who listen to novelty singles go, I expect. Not the central one where Judas and Peter Pettigrew are. I'd like to show off my having read Dante's Divine Comedy, but I really haven't. I've heard of it though, does that count?
15. CHOCOLATE OR VANILLA? Chocolate. But don't tell me dentist, all right?
16. DO YOU LIKE TO DRIVE FAST? Yes. Which is why I'm not legally allowed to drive. I will pass one day though, just you wait!
17. DO YOU SLEEP WITH A STUFFED ANIMAL? I have tons of them accumulated over the years, but I've never slept with them ever.
18. STORMS - COOL OR SCARY? Very, very cool. I like getting caught out in the rain, just so long as the promise of warm and dry isn't far away. I'm siiingin' in the raaaain.... Just as well I like rain and storms- I live for much of the year in Lancaster!
19. WHAT WAS YOUR FIRST CAR? Still not allowed to drive. Had lots of toy cars as a kid. My favourite was this white sports car thing.
20. IF YOU COULD MEET ONE PERSON DEAD OR ALIVE WHO WOULD IT BE? Of all my honoured dead in the rock and roll and movie Pantheon, I would like to meet all of them. I suppose I'd like most to meet James Morrison (to give him a whack I think) and Errol Flynn (also to give him a smack) and John Lennon (to give him a big hug). Ultimately though... I'd just like my grandmother back. I'd like to meet my other two grandparents who died before I was born, but I would very much like a hug from Anne Driscoll about now.
21. FAVORITE ALCOHOLIC DRINK? Guinness.
22. WHAT IS YOUR SIGN & YOUR BIRTHDAY? Aries, March 25
23. DO YOU EAT THE STEMS OF BROCCOLI? Yup. Like it a lot as vegetables go. Have you ever eaten it dipped in barbecue ketchup? V. v. nice.
24. IF YOU COULD HAVE ANY JOB WHAT WOULD IT BE? Right now I'd like to be the President of the USA (because although I'm not American, let's face it- I'd do a better job than Monkey-face). But really I just want to be in the movies.
25. IF YOU COULD HAVE ANY HAIR COLOR WHAT WOULD IT BE? Red. Not bright red or ginger but just... auburn, I guess.
26. HAVE YOU EVER BEEN IN LOVE? I think to truly be in love it does have to be returned, so no. I love many people though, to vary degrees and in many different ways.
27. IS THE GLASS HALF FULL OR HALF EMPTY? Being drained very very quickly, I think.
28. FAVORITE MOVIE? Many and varied, mostly very old and featuring deceased personages of great fame. The most beautiful piece of Hollywood filmmaking I think though, is the Godfather in its entire trilogy form.
29. DO YOU TYPE WITH YOUR FINGERS ON THE RIGHT KEYS? More or less. It's kinda too fast to tell.
30. WHAT'S UNDER YOUR BED? A huge box of videos... boxes of other crap I haven't bothered unpacking since getting home for the holidays.
31. WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE NUMBER? 37. Don't know why. I don't hold much store in it, though. Am not good with numbers at all.
32. FAVORITE SPORT TO WATCH? The footie, man, when it's a fantastic, huge match. I still like watching bits of the 1966 World Cup Final.
33. WHAT IS YOUR SINGLE BIGGEST FEAR? Don't think I have one. I'm not overly fond of many things, but I wouldn't say I was fearful of them.
34. FAVORITE SONG? You do not want the entire list. At the moment I'm listening to 'Is That All There Is?' by Peggy Lee and 'The Fields of Athenry' by the Dubliners a lot. Also, the Funky Gibbon by the Goodies.
35. FAVORITE TV SHOWS? Never Mind the Buzzcocks, Friends, Only Fools & Horses, Porridge, The West Wing, Ally McBeal.
36. KETCHUP OR MUSTARD? Barbecue ketchup. Then tomato. I hate mustards of all descriptions.
37. HAMBURGERS OR HOTDOGS? Hamburgers.
38. FAVORITE SOFT DRINK? Diet Coke. Always comes back to the Diet Coke, man.
39. THE BEST PLACES YOU HAVE EVER BEEN? Big Sur was beautiful although we only drove through it. New York City. I'm finding that I miss Irvine a lot, too.
40. WHAT SCREEN SAVER IS ON YOUR COMPUTER RIGHT NOW? The Gryffindor Vs. Slytherin screensaver off harrypotter.com
41. BURGER KING OR MCDONALDS? Burger King. I have to ask for the cheese to be taken out of Big Macs, you see and it takes ages.
42. DO YOU KNOW SOMEONE RIGHT NOW THAT YOU COULD FALL IN LOVE WITH? I could probably fall in love with my best friend, but it would be very odd. And also, he likes other boys.
43. WHAT DID YOU DO YESTERDAY? Yesterday? Slept. Was recovering from the PP chat that I didn't leave until some time after 6am. was woken up by mama painting outside my room. Slept a little bit more. Woken up by big argument downstairs... Slept a bit more. Naffed about on the computer... Edited Kit & Flynn using advice given during chat. Went to bed at 2am or so. Actionpacked, as you can see.
44. WHAT'S YOUR FAVORITE FOOD? Beef & Onion crisps.
45. WHERE DO YOU SEE YOURSELF IN 20 YEARS? Making movies. Dear God, let that be it.
46. IF YOU HAD THE CHOICE OF ANY SUPERHERO POWER TO POSSESS, WHAT WOULD IT BE? Oooh... super strength. I'd like to fly, too.
47. WHAT'S THE WEIRDEST DREAM YOU'VE EVER HAD? Many and varied. Just this week I've been visited by Jareth, the Goblin King, Roger Daltrey, someone I was at secondary school with and a cast of thousands..... Dreamed that my gran was in a film the other day. That was nice. I think me and George Harrison standing together at a Royal Wedding was one of the oddest.
48. WHO IS YOUR FAVORITE CLASSICAL COMPOSER? I'm not big on classical music, partly through having it forced on me during Music GCSE. But I do love the Cavalleria Rusticana by Mascagni, partly because of the end of the Godfather Part III (the only good bit of the picture). Also I love the soundtrack to Dr. Zhivago.
Had fab time in PP chat. Very amusing throughout and got some good, much needed advice for the Ficlet That Wouldn't Die. Now have it down to 36 pages. Am now off to watch a movie on the telly. Hope you're all groovy!
