Stolen from [livejournal.com profile] starlightmoonla.



A - Age: 31

B - Bed size: Queen

C - Chore you hate: All of them

D - Dog's name: I have no dog. Still. I swear I really want one, but my life is too unsettled at the moment.

E - Essential start your day item: Tea. And breakfast in general.

F - Favourite colours: Blue

G - Gold or Silver: Silver

H - Height: 5'2-1/4" (that quarter inch is very important when you are as short as I am)

I - Instruments you play(ed): I took the clarinet very, very briefly in elementary school. Then I had a crash course in the violin last year. And now I am teaching myself the harp (very slowly)

J - Job title: Professor

K - Kid(s): Nope. I still can't believe I'm old enough to have children.

L - Living arrangements: Complicated beyond belief.

M - Major weakness: Laziness.

N - Nicknames: I don't really have any, I don't think. My family always shortens my name to its first syllable. Sometimes people do that without knowing me well enough to have that privilege, and I get really annoyed.

O - Overnight hospital stay: None

P - Pet Peeve: People driving in the first lane of the highway who refuse to move over to allow the line of traffic behind them to pass

Q - Quote from a movie: "Frankly, my dear, I don't give a damn."

R - Right or left handed: Left-handed for writing and eating. Right-handed for pretty much everything else.

S - Siblings: Two little sisters, four and seven years younger.

T - Time you wake up: Depends on my schedule. It's usually sometime between 7 and 8:30.

U- Underwear: Yes. I wear underwear.

V - Vegetable you dislike: Carrots.

W - Ways you run late: The Internet. I get distracted. I can't look at the computer in the morning.

X - X-rays you've had: Dental ones, and an x-ray of my hips because I have one hip that's higher than the other. Turns out I have one thigh bone that's longer than the other.

Y - Yummy food you make: I make excellent baked macaroni and cheese. I'm very good at baked apple pancakes, too. And I'm good at cupcakes. Basically, I can bake things.

Z - Zoo favourites: Giraffes. How do giraffes exist? They make me feel like I'm going insane.

I am SO GLAD someone else appreciates the quarter inches. (I myself am 5'2-3/4"!) My tall friends/mother mock me for adding the 3/4s and then put things up high where I can't reach them.

I love giraffes. I accidentally started collecting giraffe things. For my 22nd birthday my then-girlfriend got me this print http://www.zazzle.com/giraffe_trivia_poster-228487129739724578 and my mother piped a cake with the giraffe. It was pretty much awesome.

People should not mock shortness! It's an affliction!

And GIRAFFES FTW!

Dual-handedness solidarity!

Do you dislike carrots both cooked and raw? I love the latter, but am not so much a fan of the former. I don't exactly dis-like them, but I feel they are the inferior option of the two.

Also your answer for "chore" cracked me right up. YAY.

Cooked, raw, etc. Yup. Just don't like carrots.

Dual-handedness FTW! Mono-handedness is for boring people!
