Hi everyone. I've been meaning to write something here, and all I have for right now is a survey I found on someone's page (can't remember whose, now), but that's better than nothing, right? As good a way to introduce myself as any, I figure. So, here goes:
.Simple questions:
1. What time is it: 7:40 PM.
2. Name: Rachael
3. What are you most afraid of? Got all day? Well, the main one is of looking strange or unbalanced in some way in front of people. That's usually what my social anxiety always comes back to. But on a more general level, I'm not a big fan of death. I don't like the loss of control in not knowing what happens after.
4. Have you ever seen a ghost? Not seen one, no, but I swear I lived in a haunted house as a kid, based on things that happened. And have had a crapload of other strange, don't-know-how-to-explain-them things happen to me and my family too.
6. Where were you born? Portland, Oregon.
7. Ever been to Alaska? No, but I'd like to.
8. Ever been toilet papering/ rolling in decorating trees? No, I would've been the wet blanket kid saying "We shouldn't be doing this!"
9. Croutons or Bacon bits? I don't like salad, but both are fine.
10. Favorite day of the week? Other than the obvious Friday or Saturday? I suppose whichever day has my favorite tv show of the moment on. Heh. Dork!
11. Favorite restaurant? Hmm, Golden Crown's always good (Chinese food. Or, well, fake Americanized-Chinese food, as my hater friends used to say. Heh).
12. Favorite Flower: I should say roses, what with Portland being the City of Roses and all, but I don't know. I think hydrangeas are really pretty, so we'll just go with those.
13. Favorite sport to watch: Female gymnastics like a mofo! Hee.
14. Favorite Drink: I like to try new things, but Long Island Iced Teas are my standby. Almost anything with lime is good though, as a rule.
15. Favorite Ice cream: Cookies 'n Cream.
16. Disney or Warner Brothers: I'll go with Warner Brothers.
17. Favorite fast food restaurant: Taco Del Mar! I am so addicted to their burritos. It's like KFC to the Dad in "So I Married An Axe Murderer." Damned Colonel!
18. What color is your bedroom carpet? Let me move all the crap out of the way. . .uh, a nondescript brownish orange? In other words: ugly.
19. How many times you failed your driver's test? Once, but I only took it once. And then never took it again. Wooh, 25 with no license, score.
20. From whom did you get your last e-mail? My Mom, sending me a joke-email about Oregon Barbies, my favorite of which was the Eugene Barbie ("This doll is made of actual tofu"). Ha.
21. Bedtime: When I'm stumbling around like a drunk person, going "maybe I should go to bed."
22. To sleep: Perchance to dream? Oh, you mean when do I go to sleep? Usually within 30 minutes, but if my brain won't shut up it can take longer.
23. Who will respond to this bulletin the quickest? Well this isn't really a bulletin, so. . .yeah.
24. Favorite TV Show: Right now? Gilmore Girls. It's my current delicious obsession. Mmm, obsession. . .my precioussss
25. Ford or Chevy? Neither. Remember I don't have a license? More like bus or light-rail for my sad behind (or another word I'd usually say. Do people swear here? What's the etiquette regarding that on this site?).
26. What are you listening to right now? As I'm answering this question it's "Coin-Operated Boy," by The Dresden Dolls.
27. Favorite color? Green. It's not easy being it.
28. How many tattoos do you have? None.
29. Do you have any pets? No, although I always did growing up. I had the same cat from the age of three until twenty.
30. Which came first the chicken or the egg? I'll see your "who came first" question and raise you one "what is the sound of one hand clapping." Yeah, you think about that.
31. What would you like to accomplish before you die? To be happy with myself. Cheesy, but I think if I don't accomplish that it will taint everything else.
