I rarely post memes and I certainly never do these personal questions thingies. Except that today I've just spent longer than I care to contemplate answering 28 questions over at fajrdrako's journal. *g* So here it is in mine:

I want to know 28 things about you. I don't care if we've never talked, never liked each other, or if we already know everything about each other. I really don't. I'm curious about who's on my list and who has me on theirs. What kind of people share this odd non-space with each other, hm?

1. Your Middle Name:
2. Age:
3. Single or Taken:
4. Favorite Movie:
5. Favorite Song or Album:
6. Favorite Band/Artist:
7. Dirty or Clean:
8. Tattoos and/or Piercings:
9. Do we know each other outside of LJ?
10. What's your philosophy on life?
11. Is the bottle half-full or half-empty?
12. Would you keep a secret from me if you thought it was in my best interest?
13. What is your favorite memory of us?
14. What is your favorite guilty pleasure?
15. Tell me one odd/interesting fact about you:
16. You can have three wishes (for yourself, so forget all the 'world peace etc' malarkey) - what are they?
17. Can we get together and bake a cake?
18. Which country is your spiritual home?
19. What is your big weakness?
20. Do you think I'm a good person?
21. What was your best/favorite subject at school?
22. Describe your accent
23. If you could change anything about me, would you?
24. What do you wear to sleep?
25. Trousers or skirts?
26. Cigarettes or alcohol?
27. If I only had one day to live, what would we do together? (If you have no idea, just say something crazy, it'll entertain me!)
28. Will you repost this so I can fill it out for you?

1. I think I knew that, you must have told me. Heh, I went through a phase of not liking my first name much...
7. Yes, that's all very well, but you could be more specific about what it is you're trying to convince us is so very clean...
10. Heh, like the Doctor!
11. Nifty answer. *g*
13. The flowers were probably geraniums or plumbago. Lots of great memories, yes. When are you coming to stay again?
23. Thank you re. the better health. ::hugs you:: And I'll try not to hermit too frequently. Poke me if I do. :)
26. Remind me why banana daiquiris? Oh, it's from The Girl in the Fireplace, isn't it? Had a stewed brain moment there.
27. I'll pass on the sushi. I've tried it several times, just to be absloutely sure, but something about the taste and texture of the rice used just makes me feel sick when I put it in my mouth. Ewww. Oops, there goes your impression of me as a person of discerning taste. *g*

I went through a phase of not liking my first name much...

When I was very young my mother called me "Betty", which she thought was a wonderful name. I hated it from the time I was old enough to say it, maybe even from the time I was old enough to understand it. When I was twelve I was finally able rebel and insist on being called by my 'real' name, Elizabeth, though a lot of people turn that into Liz or Lizzie anyway... which is okay. I can handle that.

like the Doctor!

Yeah. See why I love that show? I like his attitude.

The flowers were plumbago - gorgeous. We have geraniums in Ottawa, but not plumbago, for whatever reason, probably climate. Your place looked so nice. I will visit again as soon as I can afford it... I blush to say that I am still paying off the first time. Yeah, I'm slow.

Now I can't hear the word 'hermit' without laughing, remember the Doctor's line in "Utopia" about hermits getting together every ten years to talk about caves. What a lovely bit of nonsense.

Yes, banana daiquiris, invented 300 years earlier than they should have been in "The Girl in the Fireplace".

I don't like sushi either. I like most other bits of Japanese food - well, not the pickled stuff, and not the wasabi, but I love the tempura. We can do Chinese if you like, just to be safe! And there, see, you do have fine discerning taste becuase we dislike the same things and that's as discerning as you can get.

Stupid lj send me 2 notifications for this comment of yours, which would be fine, except that it usually means there's another comment it hasn't notified me about...

::kicks lj::

LJ is sometimes strange.

[rosiespark.livejournal.com]

And annoying. No comment notification at all on this one. Grrr.
