featherynscaleThis time, it's from ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
teross50.
THE INSTRUCTIONS:
1. Leave me a comment saying anything random, like your favorite lyric to your current favorite song. Or your favorite kind of sandwich.Something random. Whatever you like.
2. I respond by asking you five personal questions so I can get to know you better.
3. You will update your LJ with the answers to the questions.
4. You will include this explanation and offer to ask someone else in the post.
5. When others comment asking to be asked, you will ask them five questions.
THE QUESTIONS:
1. Why did you originally stop being a blond?
Because my skin is yellow. My skin is yellow, and my hair was yellow, and I was thinking, "By all the gods, can we get some contrast up in here?". Also, I sort of think that being a redhead is fair warning to people. Those stereotypes are closer to accurate than the sort of stereotypes you get about blonds. If nothing else, it at least allows me to camouflage myself better among the pagans. ;)
2. With the new figure, and perhaps changing mindset. Are there skirts in our future?
Not unless the Gender Identity and/or Expression Fairy comes and turns me into a real girl, no. The fact that I avoid skirt-wearing unless some costume demands it is not much at all about the fact that I look like crap in skirts (although that's also true). It's more about how I feel like I'm in drag when I wear one, and I don't think drag is appropriate for everyday use.
3. When did you first realize you were bi?
Probably in college. Of course, I didn't really realize that I was sexual at all until college, so there you go. It probably helped that I was in a RHPS cast for a little while in college...
4. Is there a city, or part of the country, you would rather be in?
Several. I have occasional fond thoughts of moving to Atlanta (mostly around DragonCon time, or when it's snowing here), or the Pacific Northwest (mostly whenwolfieboy posts) , or even occasionally Arizona (mostly when I'm having allergy days).
5. What was the stupidest, pick-up line, somebody tried to use on you?
Depends on whether or not you countmalvito, for whom it's sort of a professional obligation. If you count him, he often accosts me at Faire and says I'm looking pale and that he should check my heart rate, by laying his head on my cleavage. If you don't count him, I have to go back to when I was in college and a guy in the coffeeshop told me that he was an archangel and could read my mind. I told him if he'd tell me the rest of his bullshit story and it was good, I might go home with him on his creative merit, since everybody else who'd tried to pick me up that night had said they were vampires, so do please go on, and I'll evaluate you. That totally torpedoed him, which was its own kind of fun. Actually, people hardly ever try to pick me up. I'm told I have a FOAD field that extends for several feet around my body.

Ok, I'll bite.
Date: 2007-07-16 01:27 am (UTC)"I love ya baby but all I can think about is
Kielbasa sausage, your butt cheeks is warm.
I check my dipstick, you need lubrication honey,
My kielbasa sausage has just got to perform.
Now get it on!"
*blushes*
Teehee...
Re: Ok, I'll bite.
Date: 2007-07-20 08:28 pm (UTC)1. How did you come to have the religion you practice now?
2. The little guy in your icon is a cartoon of a land-wight, right? Are land-wights particularly important in your practice, or just fun to draw?
3. I'll ask you my favorite question too: If you could change one thing about your life to date, but knew that you would have to accept the consequences of that change, would you take advantage of the opportunity, and if so, what would you change?
4. What does your username mean, and how does one pronounce it?
5. How is the podcast project going?
Re: Ok, I'll bite.
Date: 2007-07-20 11:20 pm (UTC)2. Yup, his name is Landwight Leif, he is fun to draw, but the landwights are very important in my practice, the Ancestors and Landwights are more active in my practice than the Gods! *L*
3. Yes, I would take the opportunity to go back and NOT purchase our home. It was the biggest mistake of my life, and I have been paying for it for the last 5 years. It wasn't worth it. Honestly.
4. Vedis can be broken down into two words, Ve = Heathen altar, Dis = Female ancestors (known to carry the luck of the family among other things) So Vedis is Heathen holy woman (roughly translated of course *L*) Koerner is my married name.
5. The podcast has pretty much crapped out. However, ADF is thinking about creating one themselves, and it wouldn't take NEAR as much effort. Thing is, creating a podcast by yourself, sucks royal ass. I was hoping it would be more of a group project to help bring me and my husband closer, but, as usual, he want's no part of it. Ooo, I think that one has a bit of a rant to it, so I will stop there.
That was fun!
