janewilliams20I got tagged by ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
hobbitblue. I don't usually do these things, but this looks reasonably short and harmless.
The rules are:
A. People who have been tagged must write their answers on their blog and replace any question that they dislike with a new, original question.
B. Tag eight people.Don't refuse to do that Refuse if you wish :) Don't tag who tagged you.
I'm not doing that. Anyone's welcome to play, but if you've got better things to do with your time, I don't want to imply any sort of obligation.
01. What are your nicknames?
I don't have any that I know of - well, other than a few private ones between me and Dave, and I'm not going there.
02. How do you style your hair?
Echoing the Hobbit:
"It's long and straight and I tied it back with a scrunchy and sometimes put it up in a clip. Not sure that counts as "style" on the whole... :)"
03. What's new in your life right now?
A really nice footrest under my desk - got it off a car boot sale on Sunday and it's a vast improvement on the cardboard box + blanket I was using before
04. How many colours are you wearing now?
The dressing gown is grey - nothing else is visible.
05. Are you an introvert or extrovert?
According to a thing we did in work, I'm the nearest to an extrovert the IT department has got - the rest are noisy introverts. Make of that what you will.
06. What was the last book you read?
Something odd Dave left in the bathroom - I think it had "CSI" somewhere on the cover. About an American serial murderer, anyway.
07. Do you nap a lot?
Not usually, but I have been lately. Possibly a side-effect of the antibiotics?
08. If the person you secretly like is already taken, what would you do?
Dunno... the concept's been hypothetical for decades. Shrug and move on, I suppose.
09. Is there anything that has made you unhappy these days?
A bit down at just how many bits of me seem to be not working or falling apart all at once.
10. What's your favorite dessert?
I'd rather have another starter.
11. How long does it take you to get ready in the morning?
Under 5 min if I'm in a hurry, but I usually take it easy - alarm and coffee at 6, dawdle around making lunch and catching up on email and LJ, out of the house 8:30 ish
12. What websites do you visit daily?
Email, LJ, Facebook, LinkedIn, an on-line game or two, then the ones I'm working on. Google, of course. A couple of ASP.NET forums, probably.
13. What classes are you taking right now? And if you're not in school any more, what's your job?
What a weird way of putting it - was this aimed at children? Let me replace that one.
13. What's your job? If you don't have one, what do you do?
Database designer and web application developer.
14. Do you like to clean?
That was a joke, right?
15. What's the last song that got stuck in your head?
"Good King Wenceslaus". If you expand that to tunes getting stuck in the head, then it's the background jingle from "Pet Society" on Facebook, and I wish it would go away.
16. What's the last movie you saw?
This was written by an American, wasn't it? Correcting....
16. What's the last film you saw?
Beowulf, the 3D one, last New Year.
17. What's better: eternal love or memorable love?
Agree with hobbitblue that that's a weird question. What I've got is both.
18. What is your least favourite thing to do that you have to do everyday?
Try to put my shoes on.
19. Best time of your life?
A couple of years back, I think - just about at my peak mentally, and physically hadn't really started to fall apart. Anything I wanted to do, I could do.
20. What are you most looking forward to in the coming month?
Having the guest room decorating finished so all the stuff in the sewing/painting room can go back in there and I'll have room to move again. Or possibly having a hand-rail on the stairs so getting up and down them isn't quite such an effort.
