The Inquisition

[This has been shamelessly stolen from Lissie's journal.]

PICK ONE OF YOUR SCARS OUT, NOW HOW DID YOU GET IT?
I have a slight horizontal scar across my forehead, which I got when I was literally clotheslined by a rusty metal wire while running after my brother and being chased by a screaming old lady who was angry that we had cut through her back yard. The wire clipped me midline on my forehead and I was thrown back like a slingshot, falling flat on my ass. Then I finished running home and told my mom. I still have a teeny tiny piece of metal in the scar (it looks like a very small mole).

WHAT IS ON THE WALLS IN YOUR ROOM?
The living room has a Dali print (Metamorphosis Of Narcissus), a framed triptych of archways in Italy, and a a signed, framed b/w print of a photo of a highway taken by Noah Grey, that Rappy gave me for Christmas a few years ago.

WOULD YOU RATHER PLAY FOOTBALL OR WATCH IT?
Watch

WHAT SPORT WOULD YOU SAY YOU ARE BEST AT?
Australian Rules Smirking

WHAT IS/WAS YOUR WORST NIGHTMARE?
Anything involving alligators being in close proximity to my person. Kind of like this.

HAVE YOU EVER WRITTEN POETRY?
Yes, mostly in high school for the literary magazine, but also in my early 20s. The two poems in that entry are probably two of the best things I've ever written, and one of the poems has, IMO, the best line I've ever put on paper.

DO YOU REMEMBER BIRTHDAYS?
Of family and close friends, yes.

DO YOU KNOW WHAT TIME YOU WERE BORN?
11:56 a.m.

DO YOU HAVE A BIRTHMARK, WHERE?
No birthmark, but lots of small moles. Also lots of scars at this point.

WHAT IS THE WEIRDEST THING YOU HAVE EVER DONE?
I'm not sure I can pick just one thing. In middle school my friend Jenna and I used to have shaving cream and ketchup fights. That was kind of strange. Linda, Kathy and I also used to walk around the neighborhood with a boombox loudly singing Adam and the Ants songs. The COOLEST weird thing I ever did was when I went to Michigan, I was exploring a neighborhood and decided to climb up this steep embankment to see what was on the other side. This was on the other side, and it took my breath away.

WHAT WERE YOU DOING BEFORE YOU STARTED FILLING THIS IN?
"Working"

WHAT IS YOUR FAVOURITE GUM?
Orbit Cinnamint, always

FAVOURITE CHOCOLATE?
I'm not hugely into chocolate, but I do like those Lindor truffles that Rappy brought me when she visited.

FAVOURITE CANDY (NON CHOCOLATE)?
Pixi-Stix

DO YOU OWN ANYTHING LEATHER?
A couple of handbags, I think.

WHAT ARE YOU THINKING RIGHT NOW?
That I really hope my lower back hurts less before I fly cross-country on Saturday morning.

WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE DISNEY MOVIE OF ALL TIME?
Finding Nemo. Oh wait, that's Pixar. Then I'll go with Robin Hood. I loved the family of rabbits.

DO YOU OR HAVE YOU EVER SLEPT WITH A STUFFED ANIMAL?
I'm a girl, so of course I did.

WHO WAS YOUR FIRST CRUSH WHEN YOU WERE LITTLE?
Christopher Robin Taylor. I was 12 and he was one of my older brother's friends. I sobbed when he moved back to Chicago.

WHAT KIND OF HAIR DO YOU LIKE ON THE OPPOSITE SEX?
I'm not picky. It just can't be prettier than mine.

WHO OUT OF YOUR FRIENDS (SAME SEX) HAVE YOU KNOWN THE LONGEST?
Trina

NOW THE OPPOSITE?
Glen

WHAT IS THEIR BIRTHDAY AND MIDDLE NAME?
Trina Lynn was born March 16 (she'll always be THREE DAYS OLDER than me, ha ha!)
Glen Alexander was born March 12 (a full WEEK older than me ... forever!)

DO YOU SPEAK A DIFFERENT LANGUAGE?
Yes, but it's a dead language

WHO IS YOUR FAVORITE SINGER?
I can't answer questions like this. Pondering them makes my head explode.

WHAT KIND OF BOOKS DO YOU LIKE TO READ?
Comedy, some sci-fi, anything that is about a subject I don't know much about, but am interested in.

HOW DO YOU LIKE YOUR COFFEE?
Coffee makes my heart skip, so I don't drink it.

DRAGONS OR DINOSAURS?
DragonSLAYER, baby!

WOULD YOU FALL IN LOVE KNOWING THAT THE PERSON IS LEAVING?
Leaving town? Leaving the country? Leaving for Mars? More specificity is needed, but I'll go with "I'd try not to, fall anyway, but get over it relatively quickly."

WHAT IS THE BEST WAY TO TELL SOMEONE HOW MUCH THEY MEAN TO YOU?
Just take a deep breath and say the words. You might not get another chance.

WHAT IS THE ONE NUMBER YOU CALL MOST OFTEN?
My mom's.

WHAT ANNOYS YOU MOST?
Willfull ignorance. And people who can't drive for shite.
