1. Elaborate on your default icon.<\/b> Me as a South Park<\/i> character. I’ve used it in various capacities over the past few years.<\/p>\n
2. What’s your current relationship status?<\/b> No current relationship.<\/p>\n
3. Ever have a near-death experience?<\/b> There are times I’ve nearly died (yes, that’s plural<\/i>, people), but I wouldn’t say I’ve had a near-death experience with lights and the whole shebang. Let’s see. Car accident. Severe blood loss. Electrocution. Drowning. And those are just accidents. I won’t mention a medical condition or two.<\/p>\n
4. Name an obvious quality you have.<\/b> I am obviously scruffy.<\/p>\n
5. What’s the name of the song that’s stuck in your head right now?<\/b> “Still the Same,” by Bob Seger. I don’t know why.<\/p>\n
6. Name a celebrity you would marry.<\/b> Kate Winslet.<\/p>\n
7. Who will cut and paste this first?<\/b> It’s already been done by several people, so I doubt that anyone will.<\/p>\n
8. Has anyone ever said you look like a celebrity?<\/b> Yes. I used to get mistaken for Dave Matthews when I lived in Charlottesville.<\/p>\n
9. Do you wear a watch?<\/b> No.<\/p>\n
10. Do you have anything pierced?<\/b> No.<\/p>\n
11. Do you have any tattoos?<\/b> No.<\/p>\n
12. Do you like pain?<\/b> I have a very high tolerance for pain. I don’t like pain. But I tolerate it.<\/p>\n
13. Do you like to shop?<\/b> Frankly, no.<\/p>\n
14. What was the last thing you paid for with cash?<\/b> Deodorant and ibuprofen.<\/p>\n
15. What was the last thing you paid for with your credit card?<\/b> A friend’s Christmas present.<\/p>\n
16. Who was the last person you spoke to on the phone?<\/b> My youngest sister.<\/p>\n
17. What is on your desktop background?<\/b> “The Creation of Bart,” a parody of “The Creation of Adam” done in a Simpsons<\/i> style. No, Bart is tastefully clothed with a fig leaf, unlike Adam who lets it hang it.<\/p>\n
18. What is the background on your cell phone?<\/b> Two dragons, and a keep. For some reason, it came loaded on the phone.<\/p>\n
19. What was the last movie you watched?<\/b> The Rankin-Bass animated Return of the King<\/i>. I’d gone and downloaded a really bad cover of “Frodo of the Nine Fingers” and wanted to scrub my mind of that drunken awfulness….<\/p>\n
20. What was the last book you read?<\/b> Death of a Musketeer<\/i>, the first in a series of murder mysteries starring Dumas’ Three Musketeers (and D’Artagnan).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
