my_thestral
my_thestralI just came across this one at a friend's page and I thought, hell, why not, could be interesting…:)
1. How old will you be in 10 months?
43 and some change
2. Do you think you'll be married by then?
Hopefully not, I managed to resist it so far.
3. What do you look forward to most in the next 3 months?
Holidays, perhaps a tattoo if my BF has a generous fit ;)
4. Who was the last person you called?
I have to look that up... blimey, it was someone I met perhaps 10 times in my life, I need to arrange her a ride. I know... incomprehensible.
5. Who was the last person to call you?
My sister, nagging as usual. ;)
6. Do you prefer to call or text?
I prefer to text, but strangely enough I find myself calling more often, no time for texting, I need my hands all the time and shoulder holds the phone just nicely...
7. Do you have any pets?
I've got kids - does that count? They're loud and I have to feed them and clean after them... yep, that definitely has to count.
8. What were you doing at 12am last night?
Trying to write a piece of fan-fiction (*is looking expectantly for a pat on the back*).
9. Are your parents married/divorced/separated?
(Un)happily together. Catholics, those two - no matter how many times we tried to tell them how poorly they are matched, they insists ;)
10. When is the last time you saw your sister?
2 days ago, expect to see her again in 2 hours.
11. What happened at 10:00am?
I was at work, trying to persuade a lady on the phone that I was not her husband and that she should, perhaps, try dialling again. Seriously, if a female voice is not enough...
12. How many states have you lived in?
I you have the US in mind, I've visited one (New York), but so far I only managed to live around Europe.
13. How many cities/towns have you lived in?
At least 3, could be more.
14. Do you prefer shoes, socks, or bare feet?
Bare feet - freedom, baby... well, mostly freedom to collect dust in my house
15. Are you a social person?
Very much so, though I might be one of those secretly introvert types who live inside of their head and have a conversation with their social self regularly to keep in touch. ;)
16. What was the last thing you ate?
A pancake. In the middle of the office. Screw the important papers.
17. What is your favorite ice-cream?
Best one I had so far was chocolate with chilly and that one time in London I had a really good walnut one as well - I'm very much for trying out the exotic types
18. What is your favorite dessert?
Ice cream, of course
19. What's your idea of a perfect day?
Something that would involve a new book by George R.R.Martin, a Rupert Grint movie and a Guns n'Roses concert... yeah, I'm weird that way.
20. What kind of jelly do you like on your PB & J sandwich?
Don't eat those, sorry - I only eat PB with banana. Would be orange or strawberry jam, though. I wonder if it would go well with Marmite.
21. Do you like coffee?
Addict here. We have an on-going love affair for 30 years.
22. How many glasses of water a day do you drink on average?
Lots, if I remember, but at least one a day, I'm thirsty like a whale in the morning.
23. What do you drink in the morning?
Water and loads of coffee.
24. Would you rather sleep with someone else or alone?
With someone is just fine, but if it has to be with obnoxious someone, then alone will do, thank you very much. I don't really care much. When I'm tired, I'll sleep on top of the cock in the church tower. I seriously don't care.
25. What side of the bed do you sleep on?
Left... everything in my life is slightly gravitating towards left...
26. Do you know how to play poker?
Nope and I would be hopeless - I've got one of those faces where you can read my hopes and dreams for the next 20 years from.
27. Do you like to cuddle?
I do, but my stupid BF doesn't, so there you go.... Any volunteers? ;)
28. Have you ever been to Canada?
No, but that's definitely an ambition. Sounds like a haven of good ol' common sense in the American continent. And it looks beautiful.
29. Do you eat out or at home more often?
I eat sandwiches at work most often, sometimes at my mom's place, twice a week perhaps if my BF caters me. I'm hopeless.
30. Do you know anyone with the same birthday as you?
Boris Becker? Jamie Campbell Bower, ha! Not the same year, though! :)
31. Do you speak any other language?
Besides my own language I also speak Croatian, fairly decent English and scraps of Dutch. I took French and German at school, but would be sorely tested to actually try and use it in real life. I pity the natives trying to make sense out of anything I say in those two languages!
32. Have you ever been in an ambulance?
Nope and I have definitely no interest to, except strictly anthropological (OK, that's a fancy way of saying I'm curious!)
33. Do you prefer an ocean or a pool?
Ocean for me. I'm hard pressed because the rest of my family likes the pool - why go to the sea-side then?! Where I live everyone's got one of those 15-feet inflatable pools in front of their house - but still go to holidays by the sea in the summer. Go figure...
34. Do you prefer a window seat or an aisle seat?
Window seat, move people, I won't be bothered during a flight.
35. Do you know how to drive a stick shift?
Yes - I'd be hard pressed to drive an automatic, actually. I can't imagine liking it, I get... erm, creative, when I drive.
36. What is your favorite thing to spend money on?
Books, most definitely. And travel. And I'd be lying if I said it wasn't food.
37. Do you wear any jewellery 24/7?
You name it, I've got it. I used to be a walking jewellery shop window, but now - not so much so any more. I still wear a silver replica of LOTR ring, I never take that off, and daily, other rings and earrings.
38. What is your favorite TV show?
Currently - The Vikings and/or Game of thrones. I used to like Dexter and House as well. But mostly British sit-coms for me, can't stand the American ones.
39. Do you miss any of your exes?
Why would I? That's why they're exes.
40. Who is the funniest person you know?
One of my neighbours could be comedian. And my BF's got his fits - not to mention my kids, their antics make me laugh my heart out.
41. Do you sleep with stuffed animals?
Only the ones my kid throws at me at night. Which is more than a local zoo owns.
42. What is the main ring tone on your phone?
I have lots of personalized ring tones, but the general one is "Mi amor", played by Guns n'Roses' DJ Ashba. It's instrumental.
43. Do you still have clothes from when you were little?
God god, I hope not, it would have all been rotted away by now... I'm ancient! ;)
44. What is the color of your bedroom walls?
Purple and green. My BF's mental idea, but it kind of works. I was thinking black and red, but he let me pick the colours for the rest of the house so I let him keep this choice.
45. Do you shut off the water when you brush your teeth?
Who doesn't? Actually, who doesn't should wash it in a toilet, constant supply there.
46. Do you sleep with your closet doors opened or closed?
No closets in my bedroom, we have a would-be walk-in closet down the hall.
47. Would you rather be attacked by a big bear or a swarm of killing bees?
Oh, bees, I suppose. I think I just might stand a better chance at them.
48. Do you flirt a lot?
I'm surrounded by guys. If I flirted, I'd be three divorces down by now. I'm more or less "one of them", no one remembers to flirt with me, but I do hear a lot of gross jokes. :)
49. Is there someone you're thinking about right now?
I don't know if it's someone (though for the love I hold for it, it might as well be), rather something - it's my sandwich and it smells most appealingly.
50. Are you a relationship type of person?
I suppose so. I haven't been for 30 years of my life, but I'm kind of holding this one steady for the past 13+, so I suppose I am. Who'd say? And that from a girl who said she'll never marry... :)
