featherynscale1. Are you an innie or an outie? Innie.
2. Have you ever worn bell-bottoms? Yup. I had a pair that were like someone had cut a slit in the legs of straight-leg jeans and sewn in orange fabric with yellow flowers on them. They belonged to my aunt when she was a teenager - I wore them as part of a costume a couple times.
3. Have you ever written a song? Several, really.
4. Can you make change for a dollar right now? Hell no.
5. Have you ever been in the opposite sex's bathroom? Sure. Not even just at the Melissa Ethridge concert, either.
6. Have you ever smelled your own feet? Sure. The condition of my feet is very important to me.
7. Do you like ketchup on or beside your french fries? Not at all. Ketchup is abomination, and should not be consumed by me.
8. Can you touch your tongue to your nose? No, sadly.
9. Have you ever been a boy/girl scout? Yep. From 2nd grade through 7th, I believe.
10. Have you ever broken a mirror? Yes.
11. Have you ever put your tongue on a frozen pole? No!
12. What is your biggest pet peeve? When people ask a question and refuse to believe/acknowledge the answer. (note: Yes, it also bothers me when I do it.)

19. Did you have a baby blanket? If so, what did you call it? I don't think I had one. I had a blue baby doll called Beans, and a Chewbacca called, well, Chewbacca.
20. Have you ever tried to cut your own hair? Good gods no. Neither my hair nor anybody else's. I did cut a wig for Khristoff one time, and that didn't turn out so badly, but not so well that it would encourage me to try on actual hair, either.
21. Have you ever sleepwalked? I don't think so. I do talk, sing, kick, punch, and molest people in my sleep, but unless you're sleeping in my bed, you are really in no danger of this.

23. Can you flip your eyelids up? Ewww. I never tried, and I'm not about to begin now.
24. Are you double jointed? Possibly. I'm able to get into a lot more positions than someone of my size and build ought to be able to.
25. If you could be any age, what would you be? 21, I think. I didn't really enjoy being 21, but I think it would be more fun if I could do it again.

36. How many remote controls do you have in your house? I don't know. I don't own anything that has a remote control, but I think that the entertainment center that came from
![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif){kind=small}
kittenpants and triadruid's old apartment has two or three.37. Have you ever fallen asleep in school? Many, many times.

Poor and happy, I think.
42. If you fell into quicksand, would you try to swim or try to float? Float.
44. Do you ask for directions when you are lost? I ask for directions before I get lost.
45. Have you ever had a Mexican jumping bean? I had a toy that was called that... (Not *that* kind of toy!)
46. Are you more like Cinderella or Alice in Wonderland?
Alice in Wonderland. Lost a lot, talks to cats, plays cards, eats a lot of mushrooms, knows a lot of nonsense poetry.
47. Would you rather have an ant farm with no ants or a box of crayons with broken points? Crayons. Ant farms are kind of creepy, even without ants.
48. Do you prefer light or dark bread? Wheat bread.
49. Do you prefer scrambled or fried eggs? No eggs at all, really. Had a bad reaction to my measles vaccination, and now I can't much eat them without being ill.
50. Have you ever been in a car that ran out of gas? Yep. At 3 a.m., when I was on my way to my friend's wedding, out in the middle of nowhere, in the rain. We had to walk like 12 miles or something to the gas station, and were able to hitch a ride back with a trucker.

I prefer to get up and go in another room for that sort of thing.

64. Do you use regular or deodorant soap? Herbal body-wash stuff. Nothing like covering your skin in eucalyptus oil first thing in the morning.
65. Have you ever locked yourself out of the house? Yep. Fortunately, I'm pretty good at breaking into the house. I've never locked myself out of the current house, though.
66. Would you rather make your living as a singing cowboy or as one of the Simpsons voices? Simpson voicing. I don't mind singing, but I think that if you're a singing cowboy you have to wear chaps.

vote: Johnny Depp.

83. What kind of fruit have you never had? Lychees, but after having eaten the lychee gels that
kittenpants was so fond of, I really don't think I need to eat any.84. If you won a $5,000 shopping spree to any store, which store would you pick? Hrm.... Brookstone. I really want one of those wild foam mattresses they sell.

86. How many letters will/did you earn in your high school career? 2 Hi-Q (Academic bowl), 1 choir, 1 academics
87. Among your friends, who could you arm wrestle and beat?
I don't know. Probably not many of them. Upper body strength is not so much my thing. If I have any strength to speak of, it's all in the legs.
88. If you had to choose, what branch of the military would you be in? Air force. Not that I would join, or that any of them would take me.

Date: 2003-11-17 01:56 pm (UTC)Heh. You noticed that, too? It was rather funny the time I attended one of her concerts. The line for the women's room snaked out the door and for a good fraction of a city block. The men's room had open stalls. I wasn't the only woman to declare it unisex, and none of the men in attendance said a thing. Heck, I got sympathetic looks from a couple of them.
84. If you won a $5,000 shopping spree to any store, which store would you pick? Hrm.... Brookstone. I really want one of those wild foam mattresses they sell.
One of the best investments toward a good night sleep I ever made was a mattress pad made out of that same material. $300 or so, but portable to hotels with pathetically hard beds and a joy to come home to as well.

Date: 2003-11-17 02:01 pm (UTC)And the mattress thing - I long ago decided that if I ever became financially solvent to the point where I could throw down a few thousand dollars on a single non-car purchase, that the space-foam mattress would be the first thing I was going to buy. Alas, this has not yet come to pass.

I congratulate you on your TMI avoidance skills, then :)
Date: 2003-11-18 11:15 am (UTC)By the way, what's with the tits on your penguin?

Date: 2003-11-18 12:23 pm (UTC)And to be honest, I don't believe I ever joined the KISS army, it was way too cool for the likes of me. But I couldn't come up with anything else quick other than cutting my long hair or burning my Motley Crue albumns... and that just AIN'T happening.
I am too busy planning for my layoff. If you turn disaster into opportunity, it makes the best out of a tragic situation. So if I am laid off on Thursday, it will be like winning the lottery.
