May. 28th, 2009 12:48 pm1. Were you named after anyone?
Nope. If I'd been a boy, I'd have been Justin Arthur, and the Arthur would have been after my paternal grandfather.
2. When was the last time you cried?
I got a little teary reading bits of Nightwatch on Monday, but that wasn't really crying. Might have been the 9th.
3. Do you like your handwriting?
Yes, it's quite good, and has character.
4. What is your favorite lunch meat?
I don't really eat "lunch meat". Prosciutto could count, maybe, and I love that.
5. Do you have kids?
Not yet.
6. If you were another person would you be friends with you?
Sure, I rock.
7. Do you still have your tonsils?
I read this at first as, "do you still have your toenails?" Um, yes to both.
8. Would you bungee jump?
I don't know. I might, if I were convinced of the safety of the rig and the people in charge, but I don't like that stomach-dropping feeling at all.
9. What is your favorite cereal?
Oatmeal.
10. Do you untie your shoes when you take them off?
When I have shoes with laces on them, yes.
11. Do you think you are strong?
Yeah, I am pretty strong, especially in my lower body. I've got some fairly powerful quads. My arms aren't as strong.
12. What is your favorite ice cream?
Decisions, decisions! I like a lot of weird ones: burnt caramel, ginger snap, molasses, cardamom...I like mint chip (or anything involving chocolate or mint), cookie dough, and peanut butter cup, among the more normal ones.
13. What is the first thing you notice about people?
Probably hair color and cut, and face shape. It's how my brain remembers people, so it's what I see first.
14. Red or pink?
Red.
15. What is the least favorite thing about yourself?
My weight and my skin.
16. Who do you miss the most?
Hard to say. Some people who mean a lot to me who I don't see anymore, I'm not sure if seeing them again would be awesome or awful, like my first boyfriend/oldest friend. I miss my dead grandparents, but have grown used to their absence. Everyone I'm currently really close to, I see fairly often.
17. Do you want everyone to send this back to you?
If they want to.
18. What color shoes are you wearing?
Brown boots.
19. What was the last thing you ate?
A granny smith apple
20. What are you listening to right now?
White noise generating system.
21. If you were a crayon, what color would you be?
Scarlet
22. Favorite smells?
Chocolate, lilac, boy.
23. Who was the last person you talked to on the phone?
pierceheart
24. Do you like the person who sent this to you?
Yep! We seem to have even more in common now than we did in high school.
25. Favorite sports to watch?
Not a sports fan, but gymnastics can be fun.
26. Hair color?
Hmm. Espresso bean?
27. Eye color?
Again, espresso bean, or maybe baker's chocolate?
28. Do you wear contacts?
No. I have glasses that I only wear on rare occasions.
29. Favorite food?
I am too much of a foodie to have a single one, but chocolate and cheese are waaaaay up there.
30. Scary movies or happy endings?
Both!
31. Last movie you watched?
Night of the Living Dead from 1990. Not really scary, but interesting. I think it would make an excellent stage play, really.
32. What color shirt are you wearing?
Milk chocolate.
33. Summer or winter?
Both. I love all seasons from their beginning to their middle. Near the end, I get sick of both summer and winter. I don't get sick of spring or fall, and fall's really my favorite.
34. Hugs or kisses?
Yes, please! Hugs from lots of people, kisses from some.
35. Favorite dessert?
Chocolate in some form. Truffles, mousse, brownies, ice cream sundae...

Who knows?
37. Least likely to respond?
Lots of people.

Carpe Jugulum by Terry Pratchett while away from home (a re-read), and Anathem by Neal Stephenson while at home (it's heavy. First time for this one.)

Mouse pad? Oh wait, I have one at home, it's the Dell one that came with my computer.
40. What did you watch on tv last night?
JB brought over Night of the Living Dead as mentioned above, and Igor.
