why not?

true to style, i'm jumping on this meme bandwagon after everyone else has forgotten its existence...

Accent: a veritable cornucopia of accents from around the world. i have this habit of picking up patterns of speech from all the people i listen to every day. so i'm mostly a neutral washington accent, with a little chicago, wisconsin, valley girl, alabama, and high brow brit.

Booze: i'm not a big drinker, but i do love a good glass of wine. especially rioja (spanish red wine). i also like guinness, even though i'm told that makes me not actually a girl.

Chore I hate: taking out garbage. and cleaning other people's bacon grease.

Dog or cat: dogs! i'll take loyalty and joy over selfish love any day.

Essential electronics: i have a cell phone addiction.

Favorite cologne(s): none. i'm pretty picky about smells. the smell of clean laundry is great. as far as my own personal perfume taste, i prefer a french perfume called miranda by fraggonard. it is delightfully vanilla-ey and smells edible. expensive? yes. i hope that just means i have good taste.

Gold or silver: indifferent. i only wore silver for a while, but i think i'm pretty ambi-metal now. not that i wear jewelry ever.

Hometown: lynnwood, wa

Insomnia: hardly ever. sleeping is my spiritual gift.

Job title: photo archivist, therapeutic aide, and student as of june 13.

Kids: yes! not now or tomorrow, though.

Living arrangements: super cute house, three amazing roommates, one fish named Nudie, some bugs.

Most admirable trait: i can usually make people laugh.

Number of sexual partners: zeeeeeeeeerooooooooo

Overnight hospital stays: i had my appendix out when i was nine. best two days ever. the nurses fawned over me (i was still in my cute stage), i watched movies and ate popsicles.

Phobias: fire, explosions

Quote: "he who hesitates is lost" - i don't know who originally said it, but my dad used to quote it at us all the time in a silly voice. i really like asinine aphorisms.

Religion: christian

Siblings: one baby brother (by baby, i mean 19)

Time I wake up: usually 7:08 am

Unusual talent or skill: i can clap with one hand.

Vegetable I refuse to eat: do i have to pick one? i'm pretty picky. i don't like raw tomatoes, onions in any form that i have to chew, mushrooms, olives. yes, i am a texture-eater.

Worst habit: self-deprication.

X-rays: both arms (both broken), teeth (normal), chest (check for tb)

Yummy foods I make: banana bread, italian spinach & chicken, oatmeal bread

Zodiac sign: pisces? maybe? did i even spell it right?
