In lieu of content, a meme!
Gakked from [Bad username or site: @ livejournal.com]
1) Are your parents married or divorced?
Married for... 36 years this December, I think.
2) Vegetarian?
Mostly. I still eat fish. These days I'm calling it a protein intolerance, since sometimes large amounts of veggie protein will also make me sick.
3) Heaven?
You mean the ice cream? Don't mind if I do. *grins*
4) Come close to dying?
Only in the sense that had circumstances been a little different, I would have been another cyclist fatality. But otherwise, nope.
5) What jewelry do you wear?
Two pairs of earrings in each ear, and my watch. My silver chain with the dolphin pendant broke and I haven't replaced it yet. I bought that for myself after the break-up, since the ex wasn't into jewellery and I wore it constantly. :(
6) Are you eating?
Not right now, but I probably should.
7) Do you eat the stems of broccoli?
Whilst I'm still chopping them up, even.
8) Makeup?
Only for formal occasions. And I've started wearing toenail polish, for some reason.
9) Virgin?
*snorts* At 36 and after a 12 year relationship? I'd hope not. Definite 'no' for that one.
10) Would you ever have plastic surgery?
I have, actually. Had my ears pinned back when I was ten. When you see photos of my father from the wedding, you'll see why.
11) What do you wear to bed?
Oversized t-shirt and underwear, although sometimes actual PJs, generally when I'm visiting or being visited and there's more potential for inadvertant flashing.
12) Have you ever done anything illegal?
Fare evasion on public transport? Also the very rare use of certain prohibited herbal substances and underage drinking back in the day. ;)
13) Can you roll your tongue?
Nope.
14) Pluck your eyebrows?
Used to, but not so much now. I think I trained them. ;)
15) What kind of watch(es) do you wear?
A heavy silver Tissot women's watch, which was the last birthday gift from my now ex. I like it too much to get rid of it.
16) Abortion?
I'm pro-choice, but I believe in decent sex education and accessibility to contraception as well. There's little reason for someone to become pregnant these days if they're having consensual sex, unless there's a major malfunction.
17) Hair color?
Medium brown, currently streaked with blonde and copper,
18) Future child's name?
That's up to my brother and his wife. *grins* No babies for me.
19) Do you snore?
Only if my nose is blocked.
20) If you could go anywhere in the world on a vacation, where would you go?
Tibet.
21) Do you sleep with stuffed animals?
Not for a few years now. The spare pillow, sometimes, when I'm feeling lonely.
22) If you won the lottery, what would you do first?
Pay off my bloody credit card.
23) Gold or silver?
Silver
24) Hamburger or hot dog?
Veggie burger.
25) If you could only eat one food for the rest of your life, what would you choose?
Sushi.
26) Beach, city, or country?
City.
27) Who was the last person you touched?
[Bad username or site: @ livejournal.com] yesterday.
28) Where do you eat?
Depends where I am. At home, either at the dining table or on the couch. At work, at one of my various food places or at my desk, although I avoid that last as much as I can.
29) When's the last time you cried?
About ten minutes ago, talking about finances. I'm a little stressed about money atm.
30) Have you loved somebody so much it makes you cry?
Yes.
31) Would you ever go out dressed like the opposite sex?
Yes. I've worn my brother's jeans before and frequently have borrowed t-shirts.
32) Ever been involved with the police?
Only in a work capacity.
33) Believe in Santa?
Not since I was small.
34) Do you talk in your sleep?
Sometimes. Sometimes in Japanese.
35) beach or pool
Pool. Salt water hurts my eyes.
36) Can you cross your eyes?
Yes.
37) What's your favorite song at the moment?
"The Going Rate (My Fix)" by Thornley
38) Window seat or aisle?
Window. It gives you something to lean on and fall asleep.

Mostly Australian ones. David Bridie, Timm Freedman from the Whitlams, Ben Lee. Ruth Cracknell, an Australian actress who passed away a few years ago now. Ben Mendelsohn.
40) Do you feel that you've ever had a truly successful relationship?
Romantic relationship? No. Friendships? Yes.
41) Do you twirl your spaghetti or cut it?
Twirl. If there's too much, I bite off the excess and let it fall back on the plate. It's probably best not to watch me eat it. ;)

Ice cream. Prefereably something with real fruit in it.

On an ordinary work day, around 7:30 am. Weekends... depends what I was up to the night before.

Yes.

Right now? Somewhere where I had money.
