Quince (15)

found on the Chocolicious Meme Queen 's site:
1. Pairs of shoes you own:
I estimate about 35 pairs. There are about 30 upstairs in my closet (well, if I put them away, there would be!), and then some scattered around the house by outside doors.

2. TV show you hate:
Anything involving Paris Hilton, anything on the FOX channel, stupid sit-coms.

3. Harry Potter 7 or food for a day?
Haha, I've already read it! But if the question is food or books, for one day, I'd probably give up food before books.

4. Comic strip you could live in?
"Zits" combined with "Boondocks" and "Calvin & Hobbes." Welcome to my life. I'd like to live in classic "Bloom County."

5. Scooby doo or Shaggy?
Scooby, because I don't really know what Shaggy's about. But really I want to be Angelica.

6. Finish this sentence, "Getting lost..."
"...sounds nice right now."

7. Favorite veggie:
When I can get it, jicama. Corn, broccoli, asparagus, peas, beans, lettuce, (raw) spinach, celery, carrots....all the usual.

8. Lost friend you would like to find:
The last time I did this, I was discovered via Google, which was embarrassing, but kind of cool, too. I've actually kept track of most of my good friends...sigh. One of the problems with being [sort of] anonymous is that I can't write anyone's name down from the library field. And I can't remember a lot of last names of people I used to know. Uhm, Kim Skjoldager. We used to be on a Prodigy BBS together about 13 years ago.

9. DJs or Music?
Music, because I don't go to clubs or listen to radio (gaahk).

10. Something good you did this week:
For me: Bible Study
For others: I want to say "Didn't kill them for existing" but I'll tone that down to "Provided passable reference service on a day when I wanted to chew ten-penny nails."

11. TV reality show you would like to host:
I kind of always liked "The Mole." But I'd co-host "The Amazing Race" with Phil any time. Just call and say the word.

12. Red or Blue?
Blue.

13. Opening lines to your speech at your high school class reunion:
Thank God we didn't have to do this!
"Hi, I was in band, wore glasses, and otherwise invisible. A lot of you folks were pretty nasty in high school. I've noticed that some of you haven't changed. That's ok. I didn't really expect you do, and I sure didn't come here to talk to you anyway." [can you tell I was at my 20-year reunion a couple of years ago?]

14. New York or Los Angeles?
Neither. If I had to pick one, I'd pick LA for the weather and NYC for the general sense of being part of the world.

15. When you wish upon a star, what do you wish for?
I don't. None of them ever came true. I think I used to wish for peace and/or for the Boy of the Moment to notice me.
