mickyfinn1. What curse word do you use the most?
Bugger. I'm not allowed to say Cunt in nearly as many situations, and those are the two swear words that I nearly always say multiple times any time that I have occasion to use them (I rarely just say "bugger", its usually "Bugger bugger bugger bugger. Bugger!". occasionally the really emphatic "Bugger!" goes at the start instead of the end)
2. Do you own an iPod?
Yep. it gets used about 20% for music and video, majorly for extra HDD storage. will change once I finish travelling
3. What person on your Flist do you talk to the most?
tuiredan.
4. What time is your alarm clock set to?
800 ish. it often gets moved when I'm setting it at night. I'm trying to start getting up with the sun, since winter is really doing a number on my brain.
5. Do you still remember the first person you kissed?
Yup. I actually have a short list of different milestones, like first "quick peck" type kiss, first snog, first shag. Interestingly, first shag came well before first snog. Get me drunk and you might even find out the story of how that happened.
6. Do you remember where you were on 9/11/01?
I was at my parents house, chatting on #atbuffy, my brother called me into the tv room and showed me the news, and I went back online where we started betting on the number of casulties. I won.
7. Would you rather take the picture or be in the picture?
well, at the moment the standard pic in my collection is a pit of english scenery, and my bike helmet.
8. What was the last movie you watched?
If double episode/TV movies count? Graduation (kim possible finale). TV movies? A sitch in time (also Kim possible). download pirate stuff? superbad. At the cinema? I have no idea. its been ages.
9. Do any of your friends have children?
Yes.
10. Has anyone ever called you lazy?
Oh hell yeah. I regard myself more as excellent at procrastination, blessed with a poor attention span, and with a poor ability to find goals which adequetly motivate me. Which comes to about the same thing, but means I've got three problems to tackle instead of one. Biggest problem is my tendency to settle into a rut, both in my hobbies as well and in my work.
11. Do you ever take medication to help you fall asleep?
Not specifically. I have drunk to excess, and I have torn up half a house trying to find pain killers so I could go to sleep despite my headache
12. What CD is currently in your CD player?
MP3 is the only way I listen to stuff. Currently listening to the Cruel Sea
13. Do you prefer regular or chocolate?
Regular? what the hell is wrong with the word vanilla? And the answer is choc mint.
14. Has anyone told you a secret this week?
Nope.
15. Do you sleep on your side?
Yes. Usually. depends on the available bedding. I require a stack of good quality pillows to sleep in the manner I am most comfortable with.
16. Do you watch the news?
I mainly read it.
17. How did you get one of your scars?
The first girl I had a proper crush on turned me down, decided she was a lesbian, and moved to another state in the couple of months after I asked her out. whats that? physical scars only? The scars on my face (and the busted teeth) are all from mistaking my it for an appropriate set of brakes for a bike going full speed downhill.
18. Do you have any siblings, how many, sex?
One sister (who has been a great freind the whole time I've been in a different country to her) and three brothers (one has the energy to counterbalance my lazy, one reminds me of most of the things I don't like about myself, and one who keeps astounding me by how well he is doing)
19. Do you have any children?
No. Well, none that I know of.
20. What is the last thing you purchased?
Cigarettes. I fell of the wagon, but I regard it as self medication. I'll try again when there is more sunlight.

Date: 2008-01-10 12:38 am (UTC)I need more sunlight because I seem to suffer from a mild dose of depression during the months either side of the winter solstice. couple this with withdrawals from smoking, and it gets really crappy.
As mentioned, nicotine replacements of various types (gum, patches, inhalers) all seem to lack something. I suspect its the whole ritual of going outside, lighting up, pacing around and brooding over whatever and then having a set point to come back inside and leave some of the mental garbage in a different physical space that does the trick.
