Another stupid survey thing

I am bored and sleepless. My apologies.

Do you wake up cranky?
not usually. Sometimes if I'm jolted out a deep sleep I wake up and am really out of it for like half an hour, and I've been told I grumble at people who try to wake me up.
But when I do that I'm not actually awake, so meh

If an ex said he hates you, you say?
As far as I know, i only have one ex who dislikes me, and the feeling is pretty mutual. I'm friends with the rest even if we don't talk much anymore.


Would you curse in front of your parents?:
My dad swears like a sailor so I doubt he'd care. Actually I used to cuss a lot around him when I played Nintendo and lost. I was about 7. lol.


If a fairy godmother comes into your life, you'd...?
Wish for my brothers to be taken care of and happy, wish for DD to be taken care of and happy and probably wish for a bajillion dollars so I can sit home and write. lol.


What is your current annoyance?
The British Consulate in Chicago are a bunch of slackers.


Do you like drama?
I absolutely hate it. If someone is deliberately starting it for no reason and it's a common occurrence, I'm pretty much outta there.


What kind of camera do you have?
At the moment, none. I had to sell my awesome Fuji Finepix awhile back when I was super poor and needed insulin, so yeah. My new phone has one though, so as soon as my sim card gets here I'll have a shitty VGA phonecam. lol.


Last time you were on a boat and where?:
hmmm. This is sad, I live right on the Mississippi but I honestly can't remember. Probably a few years ago on my uncle's boat when we went to the Lock & Dam.


Do you take daily vitamins or medications?
I take insulin, but that's required lol. I do have multivitamins but I never really remember to take them, so I don't think it counts. I should really start.


Where is your computer located?
My office, which isn't actually an office at all lol. In this apartment, the living and dining room aren't separated by walls, but there's a little bit of woodwork sticking out so you can tell one room from the other. I used to have a couch in the dining room, but now I have my reading chair, bookcase, computer desk and writing desk in here instead. It qualifies, dammit. haha.


What was the last item you bought?:
insulin/metformin/Symlin. I paid the copay. It counts too.
lol

What country has the best food?:
how the hell do I know? I've only been to three, haha. Of those, I honestly think it's Scotland. I love haggis. I know it sounds gross but it's really very good.


Last time you used a coupon?:
I use them a lot at Jewel! Their prices are so high you pretty much have to or you'd be living in a refrigerator box.


Are you afraid of roller coasters?
oh not at all, they're so great. I love them, which is kinda surprising since I'm usually a chicken.


If your best friend told you they were moving, you?
Well if it was DD, I'd be like "whaaaa?" and ask where she was moving so I could find her, otherwise it'd be hard to spend a week at her place. If it was anyone else, meh. They move a lot as it is. lol.


Would you rather go to a party or out of town?:
Out of town, I'm not a big party person.


Apple Bottom Jeans or Hollister gift card?:
Oy.
Can I get a shopping spree at Waldenbooks instead?

Do you think you're dumb?:
Socially, very. Otherwise, no. I like to say that I am, but I'm not half as stupid as most of the rednecks around here.


Say a random word?:
superfluous.
and I didn't say it, i typed it

Do you wear anything with skulls?:
Haha no, I'd look retarded and I'm not 15 or a goth.


What is/was your school mascot?:
Rocky. he's some form of bulldog. lol.


At what age do you want to be married?:
I don't really believe in marriage, but if it were to happen, it wouldn't be until i was sure we could make it. "We" being me and the person that wanted me to marry them. I wouldnt ask lol.


Is divorce an option?
Yes. In many cases it has to be, although it sucks.


What color is your luggage?:
I have a huge military backpack thing that's army green. Imagine that! I also have a green backpack and a black laptop bag that I'm gonna use when I move to Scotland.


Where and when did you last go on vacation?:
Scotland last year. Possibly Des Moines if you want to count an out of town trip as a vacation, but it kinda sucked. lol.


Where is your mom right now?:
heaven

What are you supposed to be doing right now?:
I'm pretty sure I should be sleeping. haha.


What is your 5 year plan?:
Move, finish undergrad, apply for and begin grad school, hug DD a lot.


10 yr plan?
Hug DD more, get published and/or become a professor of some sort, get my Swedish citizenship

One wish?
For DD to be happy

Are you slowly drifting away from someone close?
Yes, but it happens. If it's meant to, we'll drift back again eventually.


When was the last time you felt unbearably guilty?:
oy. i don't know, but probably when I upset DD. Oh wait! I cant tell my great granny that I'm moving to Scotland, she'll freak. So I felt really guilty the other day when she made me kroppkakor and I didn't tell her I was going. lol.


How is life going for you right now?
It's going great. I think this is the first time in a very long time I've been able to say that. Now i just need my visa so i can get the hell out of the US before it gets nuked. lol.


When was the last time you held someone’s hand?
I have no idea, and that's sad.


Who can you tell everything to?
DD, my aunt Lori (gonna miss a lot!), Morph, Lindsay when I can answer the goddamn phone (sorry babe, the social anxiety is killing me lately!)

Who was the last person you talked to on AIM?
I'm never on there!

Last words you spoke?
I asked my grandpa if I can borrow his camera so I can sell stuff on eBay.


Have you ever kissed anyone who's name started with a C?
I have not.


How do you feel about gay marriage?
I don't understand what the big push for marriage is, marriage sucks. But I'm all for equal rights. if people wanna get married, they should be able to.


What is the next concert you're going to?
No idea, but living in Edinburgh I'd better go to some good ones!

Can you play guitar hero?
I suck so incredibly badly

Do you prefer warm or cold weather?
Cold. Really cold. I think I was an Eskimo in a previous life, i cant stand heat.

Indeed.
i had a sore that finally broke and it stings to high heaven lol

Do you burn easily in the sun?
All the time.
i was born lacking the ability to tan, so i just burn red as a lobster and then go back being really pale

I did not.


Plans for today?
My grandparents are taking me to lunch since I'm moving in less than a week (hopefully, if the damn visa gets here). So I'm doing that, probably working on school stuff since I have a paper due Wednesday, and writing some fanfic. lol. My life is so boring.

author/poet/professor

Are you happy with the choices you've made?
they've all led me to where I am, so i can't exactly be unhappy with them. I like where I'm at now and lamenting past decisions doesn't do any good to begin with.
