First: If you've been tagged, you must write your answers in your own LJ and replace any question that you dislike with a new question.
Second: Tag eight people. Don't refuse to do that. Don't tag who tagged you.
What song are you currently addicted to?
Not a Pretty Girl by Ani DiFranco. Pretty much all of Ani DiFranco right now. Plus all of the songs Joss wrote for either Buffy or Dr. Horrible. And also "Jenny Says" by Cowboy Mouth.
What books are you currently reading?
On Writing by Stephen King. The Sandman series by Neil Gaiman (I'm on book 7, "Brief Lives"). Next up for me is Tony DuShane's Confessions of a Teenage Jesus Jerk.
What's the most enjoyable thing you've done today?
Smooched
scribefigaro . Plus, I was amused at a very small Yorkie who was very offended at the presence of me and my dogs outside of his apartment door so he came barking after us. Then he saw the size of my lab, and backed off and barked at us from 10 feet away until his owner came to collect him. He made me laugh.
What is the one skill you wish you had?
Singing.
What is your favorite historical era?
Contemporary American history.
What's your current fandom/obsession/addiction?
Full Metal Panic! Also, Inuyasha. I've been surprisingly low-key the past couple of days.
If you were to act on your impulses, what would you be doing?
Probably eating more chocolate.
What web sites do you always visit when you go online?
My school email account. AOL. Yahoo. LJ. Feministing.com. snopes.com. xkcd. televisionwithoutpity. ff.net lately.
What was the last thing you bought?
Groceries.
Which fictional character do you think you're most like?
Heh. Scribe and I just watched Ponyo two nights ago and marveled at how exactly like the mother I was. I think I'm kind of like Sango. Scribe thinks I'm like Kagura from Azumanga Daioh (only smarter).
What kind of food do you really want right now?
Thai food. Pad Thai with tofu and no green onions, please.
Do you get cravings? If so, what do you crave?
Sugar, chocolate, very spicy foods.
Do you ever worry that other people will judge you for what you say in memes?
No.
What was the last meal you ate?
Banana for breakfast. Last night's dinner was linguini with homemade marinara sauce and a wheat roll.
Do you want to learn another language?
I'd like to know them all, actually. But I'm okay in Spanish, or was 10 years ago. Of course knowing Japanese would make things a lot easier, too.
List six things you can't live without:
My little family. My larger family. Cadbury eggs coming around every year. Sunny days. The change in seasons. Speaking my mind.
Find the closest book currently sitting near you and flip to page 54. What is the first sentence of the second paragraph?
"The principal source for Shakespeare's works is the 1623 Folio volume of Mr. William Shakespeare's Comedies, Histories, & Tragedies." From The Norton Shakespeare. It's Shakespeare's entire collected works plus some analysis.
What's something you'd like to say to someone right now?
Can I please know what's wrong with my dissertation so I can fix it and be done with school ASAP?
What are you looking forward to?
Graduating. Getting a job where I'll actually be making money.
