A chocolate coated freeze-dried strawberry (one of the goodies Fuzzle sent us).

4. Have you ever seen the movie Hairspray:
Yes, years ago.

MrPloppy.

7. Do you believe in God:

17. Favorite holiday:
Show weekend. (That’s Canterbury’s Anniversary holiday, and it also happens to mark the end of exams at my university, so a three-day weekend is usually much needed!)

18. Do you download music:
No, but only because I don’t listen to a lot of music.

19. What illegal things have you done:
I was technically an illegal immigrant in Germany. (If you visit Germany, if you’re going to stay for more than three months you’re supposed to register with the local police. I ended up staying for nearly five months, and never did get around to registering…)

20. Where would you want to go on a first date:
A park, probably.

21. Would you date the person who posted this before you?
I might, except MrPloppy might get jealous. And I’m not sure how keen they’d be, given that they’re all female, and all (I think) in relationships…

My mother used to sing me nursery rhymes, does that count?

23. Have you ever cried for no reason?
Never for no reason, but often for stupid reasons.

No, but I wouldn’t rule it out.

26. Have you ever white-water rafted:
No, but I wouldn’t rule it out.

27. Has anyone ten years older than you ever hit on you?
Does inviting you for lunch and making a point of mentioning while inviting you that his wife is out of town count as “hitting on”? (I turned him down, in case you were wondering.)

28. Do you still watch cartoons on Saturday mornings:
No.

29. Have you met a real redneck:
I lived on the West Coast for several years, so I met plenty of NZ’s version of rednecks.

Dark πŸ™‚ Actually, it’s overcast but warm because there’s been a nor’wester today.

Nothing. The hum of the computer.

32. What are your current fav songs?
Can’t think of anything – it varies according to my mood, anyway.

In a movie theatre, Pirates of the Caribbean 2, otherwise Farenheit 911 on TV the other night.

No.

35. Where was the last place you went besides your house?

45. Do you have an iPod?:
No.

46. Has anyone ever said you looked like a celeb?

Mum :-p

48. Who would you like to see right now:
Nobody at this precise moment.

I don’t think I have one – see favourite music.

Definitely cats.

51. Have you ever been caught doing something you weren’t supposed to?:
Who hasn’t?

52. Favorite flower:
Jasmine.

53. Butter, plain, or salted popcorn:
Icing sugar. That’s what we always used to put on it when we made it. I was a teenager before I realised popcorn could be savoury.

See previous entry.

55. Have you ever ridden in a limo?:
No.

Yes.

59. What are some things you really like doing:
Learning new things, stretching my brain, and being creative.

60. Do you like Michael Jackson:
As a musician, he’s ok. I can’t judge him as a person because all I know is the media image.

To see the dawn.

About 10 years ago, somewhere in Shropshire.

“The” doesn’t make sense in this context. I can tell you who a man is, if that helps?

My brother, letting me know Sister-in-law will be dropping in tomorrow to pick up their car on her way down to Dunedin (where her sister has just been taken into hospital πŸ™ ).

  1. But does it contain the word floccinaucinihilipilification? How about antidisestablishmentarianism? Or the word pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicovolcanoconiosis? Those are the true tests of a dictionary!

  2. What a great prezzie!

    I’d like a copy of Partridge’s Dictionary of Slang, but mainly because I need to consult it to be sure my characters aren’t speaking anachronistically. Fortunately the central library has a copy.

  3. Mwahahahahahaha, the urge to answer pointless questions takes another victim!

    Shropshire? Seriously? whats its like? Its actually on my ‘visit one day’ list as one half of my parental input orignates from there a few generations back. Family still has land there and all. Though most of them were errrr… asked to leave the country permanently.

  4. I don’t know about 1755, but the first recorded use of floccinaucinihilipilification was in 1777. Antidisestablishmentarianism I believe was born in the 1800’s, and I know the pneumo word has it’s origin in much more recent years.
