Not-so-odd things
Apr. 26th, 2017 02:24 amThis is part of what was supposedly a "40 odd things" questionnaire, except there's not much that's particularly odd here and there weren't actually 40 questions when I got it. But y'know, that doesn't stop me from doing it anyway. I didn't get around to answering all of these but I'm posting the part I did. (I stole this from Crickwooder, incidentally.)
(Note, because I might as well get this out of the way at the start: any time you ask me what my favorite movie/tv show/color/whatever is, usually I pick at random from a sort of mental shortlist. I rarely actually have one favorite anything, so if anybody bothered to go check from survey to survey my answers are unlikely to match. This does not apply for things like "do you like blue cheese" or "do you like eggnog" which are always going to be resoundingly negative. Well, unless it's "pizza" but nobody ever asks that, somehow.)
Do you like blue cheese? Ugh, no.
Coke or Pepsi? These days I mostly drink tea. For years I was a Diet Coke drinker, and hated Pepsi. Now I think they taste about the same.
Do you own a gun? I don't, but my husband owns several (rifles, not handguns). I have fired a gun exactly once in my whole life.
What flavor Kool-Aid? Grape
What do you think of hot dogs? I eat one occasionally - maybe once a year.
What is your favorite television show? Let's say the collective Marvel stuff on Netflix (Jessica & Luke & the first season of Daredevil, is mostly what I've seen.)
What is your favorite movie? Star Wars (A New Hope, that is)
What do you prefer to drink in the morning? tea (I head straight for Starbucks when I leave the house, usually, though)
Can you do a push-up? I seriously doubt it.
What’s your favorite jewelry? Tiaras. (I love jewelry but I hardly wear any any more. Some of you guys may remember when I used to be all into making jewelry a few years ago, so it's kind of weird. I gave up on earrings because they hurt my ears, and I never liked rings. I wear a bracelet or a pendant once in a while but that's about it.)
What is your hobby? I guess it's nail polish blogging, nowadays. (Not vlogging, which I don't do, just an old-fashioned blog.) (added: in case that interests anybody and you don't already know where it is, it's here.)
Do you have ADD? almost certainly, although I never figured it out until I was an adult
Do you wear glasses? yes
What are your favorite cartoons? Miyazaki movies, does that count? I love Spirited Away and My Neighbor Totoro, especially.
Current hates? That would have to be the president.
Favorite place to be? Online :)
How did you bring in the New Year? At home with Anderson & Kathy on TV.
What is your favorite color? Today I'm going with the color of the nail polish I'm about to put on, a bright sort of raspberry color.
Can you whistle? No, never could.
What’s in your pockets? I wear middle-aged lady jeans that don't have pockets
What’s your favorite animal? cats
How many TVs in your house? two, one of which we never watch
Do you like to dance? yes, but I'm a terrible dancer.
Do you enjoy camping? I haven't been camping since I was a kid. I liked it then, though.
