sylvia_bondI was quasi-tagged by big_pink for this meme, and I'm to tag 8 other people and tell them they can't refuse. (Even though they can) Totally fun! Here's who I tagged: fashes, agt_spooky, blacklid, cormallen, grand_sophy, plutogirl10, vaingirlfic, nocturnal08, apgeeksout, amothea
Here goes:
2. What is your most guilty pleasure?
Cooking in my pajamas, drinking white wine, and singing out loud to Rascall Flats.
3. Favorite childhood cartoon?
Space Ghost. I always wanted to ride on his back through space.
4. What goes on your hotdog?
Ooooh, saurkraut. Onions. Mustard. Must have a coke with that, with ice and a straw.
5. What was the last movie you saw, for pleasure, and would you recommend it?
I am blissfull. I know neat people, I can do interesting things, and I enjoy what I do for a living. Just call me Pollyanna, because I'm GLAD for every day.
7. What's the one possession you USED TO have, but don't anymore and wish you did? What happened to it?
I had a unicorn statue that I bought one year. It was a nice one, made of pewter. Did it get lost in a move? Don't know. I miss it.
8. You (as you are now, not a fictionalised you) are a FC in an episode of SPN. What's your role?
I am an incredibly helpful contact. Perhaps I run a bookstore that has information, like a book or an old map, that Sam or Dean need. I don't know I have it, not like that, but as they come through town, and stop at my place, I'm able to lend a hand. I'd like to be one of those characters that find out what they really do. I'd like to feed them some good homemade cooking. I'd like to get one of those smiles as they leave town. (What a FUN question!)
10. Worst case scenario?
11. What do you consider your greatest accomplishment?
Independance. Owning my own place. Taking manytrips across the country solo.
12. What's your greatest frustration?
My computer. Sloooooooooooow.
14. Jury duty. Ever done it? What was it like? Wanna do it? Thoughts at all?
Depends on what they wanted me to do and why. Otherwise, Canada looks pretty good to me.
17. Describe the flag design of your personal utopia.
Blue sky, clouds, and green grass. Maybe a little river at the bottom.
18. Do you have a motto? If yes which one?

1. You've just died. What happens?
Heaven is a giant hologram where I can live out my favorite stories. Victorian England here I come!
2. What is your most guilty pleasure?
Cooking in my pajamas, drinking white wine, and singing out loud to Rascall Flats.
3. Favorite childhood cartoon?
Space Ghost. I always wanted to ride on his back through space.

5. What was the last movie you saw, for pleasure, and would you recommend it?
I saw the Darjeeling Express, cause I saw the preview about the brothers arguing over a belt. One brother had it, the other brother owned it, and then the first brother said, "Can I borrow it?" It was such a quirky little movie, so honest about sibling relationships, I found myself nodding with recognition over so much of it, it was VERY cool.
6. On balance, are you happy with your life as it is, would you change it a little or change it a lot?
I am blissfull. I know neat people, I can do interesting things, and I enjoy what I do for a living. Just call me Pollyanna, because I'm GLAD for every day.

9. Name one person for whom you'd definitely take a bullet, and one for whom you definitely wouldn't.
Anyone in my family, I would take a bullet for. I would take a bullet for Danuta or Donna. Everyone else, I'm sorry.
10. Worst case scenario?
War of the Worlds. I would loose my shit.
11. What do you consider your greatest accomplishment?
Independance. Owning my own place. Taking manytrips across the country solo.
12. What's your greatest frustration?
My computer. Sloooooooooooow.
13. For you only, not as a broad political statement: life imprisonment or death sentence?
Life.
14. Jury duty. Ever done it? What was it like? Wanna do it? Thoughts at all?
I'd love to do it, though I think it would be hard. I used to want to do it to get off of work, but now I'd just like to see the process up close.
15. You discover you've been drafted into military service (to a country to which you hold a citizenship). What do you do?
Depends on what they wanted me to do and why. Otherwise, Canada looks pretty good to me.
16. Which fictional character could you most see yourself marrying?
ANY fictional character? Wow, that's a wide open world, you see. If you'd asked me which historical person I'd want to meet, I'd say George Washington in a heartbeat, but I wouldn't want to marry him. I'd love to marry Cat, from Catspaw by Joan D. Vinge.
17. Describe the flag design of your personal utopia.
Blue sky, clouds, and green grass. Maybe a little river at the bottom.
18. Do you have a motto? If yes which one?
"Look afar and see the end from the beginning."
19. What's in your pocket right now? Conversely, if you have no pocket, what are the three items closest to your right hand, excluding computer hardware?
Pen (a pilot Dr. Grip, for which I have refills. It's my favorite pen.) A picture of Dean, cause I'm dorky like that. (It's my badge from KazCon, which was a blast.) A sticky note with Missy Higgen's name on it, to remind me to go check out her music.
20. What place most speaks to you?
Any place that I happen to be, is the first thing I thought of. Cause there's a story everywhere you go. My bed calls to me a lot. But I remember, quite recently, taking a drive along some back roads near my house. Everything was brown and dead, on account of it was winter, the trees were black, and the sky was blue and I stopped the car, because it felt so wonderful to see that kind of geographic outline. Colorado is the place for me.

Date: 2008-03-16 03:21 pm (UTC)I'll tell you the story. First, I got an additional earring in my left ear, on account of Cat wearing that one made of jade. Then, I managed to find some information on her, about how she and a friend used to pretend to be boys during the American Revolution. I felt such an affinity with her. And as for CAT, oh, man. He's perfect, isn't he? Then I found an email and wrote to her. Her husband wrote me back almost right away. Sadly, Joan had been in a car accident, and was unable to write any more due to a head injury. I about came apart.

Date: 2008-03-16 09:44 pm (UTC)Victorian England here I come!
I bet you would like Libba Bray's Gemma Doyle books. They're set in a fairly historically accurate Victorian London (complete with all these threads of class/race/gender that are both brainfood & plot elements) & a bit of colonial India & have coming-of-age and magic of the connection-to-other-planes-of-existence variety and family and betrayal and sacrifice.
