Because I'm such a Meme Ho:
Yet Another 20 Questions Meme
1. What do you see when you look out the window?
Grass that needs to be cut; a patio set that never gets used. Ditto a hammock, because it's too hot.
2. What is your favourite song from childhood?
The Name Song my Aunt Louise taught me
3. Which is your favourite fairy tale?
A Midsummer Night's Dream by Shakespeare
4. Do you follow sports? If so, which team/sport?
I have been known to scream at the telly when a Clemson Football game is on.
5. Do you consider yourself/do others consider you a geek?
Not in the least. I am actually considered rather cool to those who know me best. I suppose I indulge in a bit of geekery at times.
6. Which character from your fandom would you throw out the door?
Mad-Eye Moody - his self-righteous paranoia gets on my tits.
7. Which character(s) from your fandom is your personality closest to ?
Possibly Minerva, or Tonks. I have her clumsiness. Maybe Sprout.
8. Which character from your fandom is the utmost boring type?
Lupin - bless him, but he's dull. I'd be praying for a full moon around him.
9. Do you mod or co-mod any communities?
No, but I greatly admire those who do.
10. Do you consider memes an insult to your intelligence?
Not the ones I perform.
11. What time did you eat your last meal?
Today at 12Noon. Chick-fil-A. It was tasty, thank you.
12. What do your prefer in a person: depth of emotion or depth of reason?
Depth of emotion. They may not be able to balance their checkbook, but I want someone who can FEEL.
13. When you put out trash do you put it in a small bin or a big skip?
Big skip - although, I really don't see why it matters. This question is making me rethink Question 10.
14. Where do you consider yourself at home? Why?
With my husband, surrounded by my cats, in my home, surrounded by those things that are comforting and familiar to me. I can live anywhere if those things are present. When you are at peace with yourself, anywhere is home.
15. Are you easy to get to know or are you an acquired taste?
I prefer to think of myself as a Japanese meal. Enjoyable with complex flavours, challenging the palate, yet leaving you wanting more soon after. Or that could just be bollocks.
16. Which word do you like more- ingenious or popular? Why?
Popular. Like Garrison Keillor, I think it feels physically good in the mouth when you say it.
17. Do you have a bath, shower or both?
Both. I have a huge garden tub that I've never used in the 3 years we've lived here. I always shower. Go figure; it was one of the selling points of the house.
18. What is your favourite piece of technology?
Either my laptop, because it enables me to write, or my little ARchos Gemini MP3 player, which enables me to enjoy my music.
19. When is the last time you split your side laughing, and what was it about?
The night I wrote 'Snape smirkled'. I still chuckle about it, and dammit if I didn't type it today as well!
20. If you could have one item from your fandom, what would it be? Why?
I, too, would love my own wand. I don't know what it would be or what type of core it would have, but I wouldn't worry about things like that. The wand chooses the wizard, you know.

To take a bath, I would have to scour the tub first. Wait for it to fill with water. Then I'd get in, soak for maybe five minutes before I'd get bored. I can't simply relax. I have to be DOING something.
19. I still remember 'Snape smirkled'. I, too still get a chuckle out of it.
20. My wand is purple, curved slightly at the tip, and has a core of four AA batteries. ....Aaaand we're out!.....

Date: 2011-06-30 08:19 pm (UTC)I used to love to soak in a bath, surrounded by candles and incense - I would make a big production out of it, and when I moved in, I envisioned many nights spent in this pursuit. Never has happened yet, but I'm optimistic.
I have a wand like that...and a red one that glitters...and a pink one... I like variety in my life...
