[meme] Monday 50.
Another question meme. Swiped from
zonereyrie.
[Edit: Mystery solved. I know that it says 50 questions, and there are only 49. That's not my fault! I stole it from
zonereyrie, who doesn't have a question #15, and neither does the person he swiped it from. Go figure.)
- Your name spelled backwards. irem
- Where were your parents born? My mother was born in Kumamoto, Japan. My father was born in Argonia, Kansas.
- What is the last thing you downloaded onto your computer? Hrm. Probably the Trillian Pro patch.
- What's your favorite restaurant? Hmmm. In this area? Ye Cheong, Akasaka, The Melting Pot, Meskerem...
- Last time you swam in a pool? September 26th of this year. I was in the Bahamas.
- Have you ever been in a school play? Several of them.
- How many kids do you want? None. I like kids... when I can put them back in the closet when I'm done playing with them.
- Type of music you dislike most? Hmmm. Disco-pop? I don't know. I like most music. I despise Limp Bizkit, though. Does that count?
- Are you registered to vote? Yes.
- Do you have cable? Yes.
- Have you ever ridden on a moped? I lived in Hawaii. :) So, yes.
- Ever prank call anybody? Not to the best of my knowledge. It's a ridiculous thing.
- Ever get a parking ticket? Not in the last several years, but I got a lot of them when I lived in Hawaii.
- Would you go bungee jumping or sky diving? Bungee jumping, no. Sky diving, yes.
- Do you have a garden? No. And any jokes about "Mary Mary Quite Contrary" will be met with a sharp object to the eye.
- What's your favorite comic strip? Oy. Online comics: Something Positive. PvP Online, MegaTokyo. Print comics: Y: The Last Man, Strangers in Paradise, Gloom Cookie, Sandman, Death, others that I'm not thinking of.
- Do you really know all the words to your national anthem? Nope. I know the first two verses. It's long, though, and I never really cared enough.
- Bath or Shower, morning or night? Usually showers, though I'm a mutant and I take weird showers when I want to relax. (They involve lying down in the tub and reading. In the shower, yes.) And, I take lots of showers, generally at least twice a day.
- Best movie you've seen in the past month? Hmmm. *thinks* I watched Split Second last week. Does that count? :) (I also saw Kill Bill, which I actually think I would have liked a lot had I not been in a completely broken state of mind when I saw it. And I saw Underworld which I failed to find to be a good movie at all.)
- Favorite pizza topping? Depends on my mood. But, cheese is high up there.
- Chips or popcorn? Depends. Is there crappy icky butter on it? Are they boring chips? I like salt and pepper chips, and seasoned popcorn without butter.
- What color lipstick do you usually wear? *looks wary* I own entirely too much lipstick. (No. Really. I went on this big girly kick last year.) I haven't worn any in a while, but when I do, it tends to be dark red.
- Have you ever smoked peanut shells? ... No.
- Have you ever been in a beauty pageant? No.
- Orange Juice or apple? Depends. I like both, tend to have orange more often than apple.
- Who was the last person you went out to dinner with and where did you dine? chichi, sitz, Vger, and I went out to Amphora in Vienna on Sunday night.
- Favorite type of chocolate bar? Dark chocolate wins, though if we're looking for generic checkout line stuff, Three Musketeers, Kit Kat, Reeces, and Baby Ruth are all in rotation.
- When was the last time you voted at the polls? *looks sheepish* 1996 presidential election.
- Last time you ate a homegrown tomato? I suspect the last time I was at kazmat's, maybe?
- Have you ever won a trophy? Yeah. Mostly academic things.
- Are you a good cook? I think so. My friends seem to think so.
- Do you know how to pump your own gas? Yup. I found it completely weird when I moved to Oregon and wasn't allowed to pump my own gas. Yeesh. Them and New Jersey.
- Ever order an article from an infomercial? I don't think so, but it seems like something I've probably done.
- Sprite or 7-up? Sprite.
- Have you ever had to wear a uniform to work? how about school? Yes, at the beach concession (well, I had to wear the work tank top over my bathing suit and shorts), at Kinko's (company button-down shirt), and in the 4th grade in Kuwait.
- Last thing you bought at a pharmacy? Prescription refills.
- Ever throw up in public? Yup.
- Would you prefer being a millionaire or find true love? True love.
- Do you believe in love at first sight? Yes. I don't think it's the norm, but I do think that it's possible.
- Ever call a 1-900 number? Yup. Not like you think, though. The old Sierra Online hint number was a 900 number.
- Can ex's be friends? Yes. Even if the grammar in the question is wrong. (Ahem.)
- Who was the last person you visited in a hospital?
bouncingleaf, I think, during her disastrous trip to DC this summer.
- Did you have a lot of hair when you were a baby? As a baby, I don't know. The pictures seem to indicate so. By the time I was 3, I could stand on my hair.
- What did you eat today? I had a bowl of cereal this morning.
- What's your all time favorite Saturday Night Live Character? Gumby.
- What was the name of your first pet? Hrm. Barney, I think. This predates the damned purple monstrosity. This was a cool Saint Bernard. :)
- What is in your purse? I've actually not been carrying a purse around much lately. (Those of you who know me can stop fainting now.) When I do carry it, I tend to have: wallet, keys, cell phone, digital camera, notepad, a book, lip gloss, a pen, and some mints.
- Favorite PG rated thing to do before bedtime? Read. I generally read myself to sleep.
- What is one thing you are grateful for today? Having friends who support me and understand me and care for me. And who are as strange as I am.
