litoteaseThe Rules:
A. If you've been tagged, and you choose to participate, write your answers on your blog. Replace any question that you dislike with a new, original question (please italicize the new question if you do that).
B. Then, tag eight other people. Don't tag who tagged you. (I got tagged by![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
cold_poet )
01. What are your nicknames?
Red. And Mom.
02. How do you style your hair?
Short, pulled forward from the crown, spiky around my face.
03. What's new in your life right now?
I'm now an official sex educator (just finished the 60 hours of training last weekend). And someone in my training group asked if I'd be willing to write a column of some sort (sex & aging, sex & parenting, sex & something) for a sex-positive website start-up he's part of. (Cue terror.)
04. How many colors are you wearing now?
2: Khaki and black (I'm still in the ugly work uniform).
05. Are you an introvert or extrovert?
It depends on the day. Really. I've been Myers Briggs-ed multiple times, and sometimes I test extroverted (by 1 point) and sometimes I test introverted (by 1 point).
06. What was the last book you read?
Geometry of Design: Studies in Proportion and Composition by Kimberly Elam.
07. Do you nap a lot?
Only when I don't have enough time left before work to get in a whole eight hours. (I usually do that a few nights [well, days, in my case] a week; then I'll crash for 14 hours twice in a row to get caught up.)
08. If you had a theme song, what would it be?
LOL. I need two; the disjunct is the theme: Please Please Please (Let Me Get What I Want) by The Smiths, and Protégé Moi (Protect Me from What I Want) by Placebo.
09. Is there anything that has made you unhappy these days?
Work. I hate our Corporate Overlords, but feel trapped in my job because of my need for ongoing medical care/insurance. (But! As of this month, I'm one year post-chemo, and [knock on wood] re-occurrence free. Whee!)
10. What's your favorite dessert?
Cheesecake, with no bells or whistles. Or chocolate or strawberry, either.
11. How long does it take you to get ready in the morning?
20 minutes to shower, 10 for hair, 5 for clothes, and as much time as humanly possible before that for coffee and catching up with reading my flist.
12. What websites do you visit daily?
LJ (flist & crack impala), delicious.
13. Do you write fic? What was the last fic you wrote?
No, unfortunately. I just read (and read and read and….)
14. Do you like to clean?
Not even the littlest, tiniest bit. I do like having everything clean once the cleaning's done, though.
15. What's the last song that got stuck in your head?
Smile for the Paparazzi by Cobra Starship.
16. What's the last movie you saw?
The Bourne Ultimatum, on TV. I don't remember the last time I was in a theater.
17. What fandom was the last fanwork you read/saw for, and did you like it?
Supernatural. I stumbled across a series that's so OOC I'm cringing, but they all center around a bullet-proof kink of mine, so I can't. Stop. Reading. *facepalm*
18. What is your least favorite thing to do that you have to do everyday?
Two words: kitty litter.

Date: 2008-12-13 01:43 pm (UTC)That was a fun meme. It was interesting reading everybody's answers, and also seeing how the meme itself changed. Kind of like playing "telephone" as a kid (did you ever do that one?).
