I may make minor edits to this sometime.

I got the meme from the-golden-knight.deviantart.c…

A
- Available: sans commentaire
- Age: born in the year of the Tiger
- Annoyance: People who sit within my range of sight, which includes my peripheral vision, and repetitively and at high speed flap/bounce/vibrate their leg(s) or foot.
Movement of an ad or avatar on a webpage when I'm trying to read or admire a picture.
New! Get off the ******* cell phone in the movie theater!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
People with crappy earphones or the volume so high that crishcrishcrishcrish can be heard across the room.
- Allergic: Some chemicals in cigarette smoke. I'm not bothered by (the presumably higher quality/less chemically laden or processed) clove cigarettes or cigars. PABA in sunscreen or other lotion.
- Animal: Foxes (this is new. Came with certain characters that came to me.)
- Actor/Actress: I really enjoyed Samuel Le Bihan in Brotherhood of the Wolf.

B
- Beer: Fun to taste, but I don't drink it.
- Birthday/Birthplace: Leo Tiger/Houston
- Best Friend: ___
- Body Part on opposite sex: The right guy's forearms can be really hot. A man's chest that seems really appealing might look a little old fashioned like...(what's his name he has awesome hair) Robert Plant. Not six-pack abs. That's not natural or attractive to me. Best if earned by just being naturally active doing things at home or work and being healthy instead of sedentary.
- Best feeling in the world: Dancing to wonderful music, knowing what you're doing, on stage in front of thousands.
- Blind or Deaf: My brother introduces me as his sister who's kind of deaf, but if I can hear music and very faint noises, then it must be a problem of making out or processing the odd speech frequency or something.
- Best weather: Cat 1-2 hurricane (then it starts getting scary because you're not sure the windows are going to hold up)
- Been in Love: yes
- Been bitched out?: When a dog barks at a cat in a tree, the dog's not earning any respect.
- Been on stage?: I love it. I eat it. It needs to happen again.
- Believe in yourself?: yes
- Believe in life on other planets: yes
- Believe in miracles: sure
- Believe in Magic: Well, one can say or sense that something is magical, some wonderful spirit. And one can concentrate, focus one's intention to lead to the creation of something.
- Believe in God: There is a force-spirit presence throughout...probably something like a hive mind...and different "levels" of minds
- Believe in Satan: There's probably something, some spirit... On one hand I don't concern myself or fear... On the other hand, there are things I don't mess with...
- Believe in Santa: :Spock on: It would be interesting to study the evolution of the Christmas/Yule spirit figure.
- Believe in Ghosts/Spirits: Makes sense that something like these exist.

C
- Car: It would be lovely to have a new car with leather seats, but I'd feel kind of guilty, too, because I don't want to impact the earth badly.
- Candy: Good chocolate. Caramels. Big lollipops like you can get at the fair. Banana Laffy Taffy.
- Color: I like almost all of them, excepting what I call Purina Cat Chow barf orange-red and some horrid greens I've seen.
- Cried in school: two times I was falsely accused
- Chocolate/Vanilla: both
- Chinese/Mexican: Hunan Chicken in brown sauce with lots of mushrooms/beef fajitas and caramelized onions with guacamole on fresh flour tortillas at Ninfa's
- Cake or pie: Cake.
- Countries to visit: Bulgaria. France, Scotland, Ireland. Spain. Turkey. Canada. Italy. China. Lithuania, Poland. Romania, Greece.

D
- Day or Night: Night.
- Dream vehicle: horse and a fine carriage. Maybe I'll make that carriage some day.
- Danced: At Elysium in Austin on Saturday nights, but not recently.
- Dance in the rain?: Can't say I have. Ah, for lack of music. Imagine loud dance music in a serious rainstorm/minor hurricane. Worthy. That should happen.
- Dance in the middle of the street?: At a rest stop or in parking lots
- Do the splits?: When I was in maybe 4th grade I was in a play that had a minor dance number, and at the end of it I dropped into the splits. I hit the stage and bounced a little (no sweat), and some parents in the audience literally fell out of their plastic chairs.

E
- Eggs: I didn't like them for a long time.
- Eyes: Mine are green or je ne sais quoi (literally I do not know what, when you're not sure what color to call them), with a sort of sunburst (orange/yellow) effect around the pupil.
- Everyone has: to eat
- Ever failed a class?: 0.0 GPA my last semester at the University of Texas (but overall the GPA's still good enough I can go back when I want)

F
- First crush: don't remember, but I was called Hot Lips in elementary school
- Full name: It's a good name, it sounds neat when said (it's Scottish), maybe no one else in the world has it (the full name), and Americans pronounce the last name wrong and the first name only after hearing it multiple times, slowly.  
- First thoughts after waking up: I don't use an alarm if at all possible, so as I become aware, I start thinking about whatever things I want to think about.
- Food: I love a good prime filet mignon, cooked medium, pink throughout, with a pat of butter on top.

G
- Greatest Fear: It's the future. My family has enough food to survive. Other people are starving. Or authorities are confiscating.  
- Giver or taker: Right now I'm a taker, but that will turn around.
- Goals: In the next year or two figure out a good town to live in, get land, plant an orchard. Learn to use a wood cook stove. Eventually get a story or more out into the world and perform on stage.
- Gum: I don't buy it, but I'll chew some on rare occasion if someone gives it to me.
- Get along with your parents?: Passable.
- Good luck charms: Not really.


H
- Hair Color: I'm a brunette. It used to have a golden and red/auburn tint, but now there's a more silver/starlight tint instead of gold and a little less red/auburn.
- Height: 5'3"
- Happy: I do alright. I'm not sad.
- Holidays: I love Halloween. Valentine's Day is more trouble than it's worth, and the same could be said for Christmas, though I do like to be able to give presents, and some Christmas decorations can be very nice. I like the New Years..regular, Celtic, and Chinese. I love a good turkey dinner on Thanksgiving, with cornbread stuffing and thick gravy.
- How: I do a lot of things backwards or start in the middle of things.
- Health: I'm working on relaxing more.
- Hate: That sexual molestation of the type that sends people to prison can now happen to virtually anyone at US airports as a matter of government policy. Please may the children of today not grow up thinking that this is okay.

I (in guys/girls)
- Eye color: I didn't even notice eye color until fairly recently. I'm usually not a fan of brown eyes. Blue eyes are very common, but can be very nice. Green or gray eyes don't seem typical, so that would be very nice to see.  
- Hair Color: I appreciate every hair color in guys except a pepper gray or faded green.
- Height: I guess 5'6"-6'4"
- Clothing Style: Me, denim, comfortable cotton shirt, Teva sandals (I suppose I ought to dig out my closed-toe Nikes for winter), unless I'm going dancing at a goth club. In men? Not "hip hop". Not really country either, unless it's old West/gothed up. A sharp-dressed man is appreciated, but probably not all the time, and right now I don't have the clothes to match up. Elegant/glam goth is always appreciated. The emo look is attractive, but not an unhealthy attitude with it. Nothing wrong with jeans, ordinary clothes.
- Characteristics: Guys who are only interested in hooking up would be wasting both our time. Sexual pressure is not appreciated; a gentleman wouldn't do such a thing, and would get better results. Someone who drinks too much on a regular basis is stupid or an alcoholic and is wasting good money.  
Putting the TV on is usually the impetus to me getting out of earshot of it, generally, but I (sort of) have a mental list of movies I look forward to watching with the right person.
- Ice Cream: I rarely eat it, but my favorite at the Marble Slab or similar place is sweet cream, with chocolate chips or Butterfinger mixed in. My favorite at Baskin-Robbins is World Class Chocolate with marshmallow sauce, whipped cream, and a cherry, and adding sliced banana would be nice.
- Instrument: I used to play the oboe, but I never really practiced. I can play the piano given some music and practice time. I appreciate the electric bass.


J
- Jewelry: I don't have any worth wearing, and I have things I need to spend money on more than jewelry worth wearing; otherwise it'd be nice to pick out a little something.
- Job: I plan to work through Laurence Boldt's Zen and the Art of Making a Living. When I have a baby I intend to stay home to take care of him/her. I'll probably end up a small farmer/homeschooler/author? who has way more things she wants to do than she ever could.

K
- Kids: 3, maybe 2 or 1
- Kickboxing or karate: Ninjitsu, as in avoid fighting, hide, climb, jump, have superior intelligence, have outdoor survival skills, and be able to use farm tools.
I took ballet when I was little so I know for a fact that white belt former ballet students, or at least my sister and I, can thoroughly kick the ass of purple and blue belts just by kick kick kick kick kick kick kick kicking etc.
If fighting's -really- called for. Eyes eyes throat right up under the bottom of the sternum side of the knee.
- Keep a journal?: I have a lot of writings

L
- Longest Car Ride: I have crossed the US many times.
- Letter: A or K
- Laughed so hard you cried: It would be great to see him again.
- Love at first sight: Yes

M
- Milk flavor: (starting with whole milk) chocolate, or with sweet vanilla syrup, or as an Iced Caramel Macchiato with half a shot of espresso
- Movie: Xanadu
- Mooned anyone?: no
- Marriage: Probably, due to wanting kits.
- Motion sickness?: As a car passenger on curves and on buses on rural roads in Ireland.
- McDonald's or Burger King: McDonald's, rarel

N
- Number of Siblings: 3 + 1 boy miscarriage
- Number of Piercings: None
- Number: I like: 7

O
- Overused Phrases: ..., bitch. Where...at.
- One wish: To have children born healthy
- One phobia: nothing comes to mind

P
- Place you'd like to live: If I knew, that would be convenient. Someplace that will still be tolerable outdoors (without air conditioning) in the summer when global temperatures rise considerably so that my kits and grand-kits won't have to move unless they want to; so that means maybe temperatures not getting above the mid-80s regularly now. Someplace with small organic and sustainable agriculture, where people use heirloom seeds. Someplace one doesn't need a car yet not an area with a high population, yet access to a movie theater and library. Someplace with nature in one's backyard, so the kits can run off and play like kids used to be able to. Someplace with local theater and ballet (while I'm dreaming, with a studio that adults can join that isn't too expensive that's run by someone who was a member of the Houston Ballet). A place that gets orange leaves in autumn and snow in winter. A place where most people aren't blind and easily led by a demagogue.   
- Pepsi/Coke: Pepsi down South is toxic waste. Tastes better the further north you go or in Europe. I vote for Old Coke, the way it was when I was little. Or good fountain Dr. Pepper.

Q
- Quail: I lived in Quail Valley
- Questionnaires:

R
- Reason to cry: to get someone to stop tormenting me who isn't getting a clue otherwise
- Reality T.V.: the TV is not plugged in
- Radio Station: the radio in my car stopped working
- Roll your tongue in a circle?: instantly

S
- Song: Umm... how about Queensryche's Silent Lucidity
- Shoe size: 7, 7 1/2
- Sushi: with avocado and cream cheese
- Skipped school: Missed school
- Slept outside: Aside from tent camping, I once climbed a fence and slept in the front garden of a small language school I was going to be attending because it closed before I got there and could get my room assignment in town, and I didn't have a lot of money.
- Seen a dead body?: Only road kill
- Smoke?: Fuck no
- Skinny dipped?: Closest I've come was being naked (obligatory) in a couple indoor spas in Baden-Baden, Germany, and being topless on a beach in Biarritz-Bayonne, France, which at the time I was not enthusiastic about, but my bikini top had been stolen at the hostel and everybody else was topless (and getting sunburned breasts D: ). And then an ESPN2 cameraman started filming me and an enormous freak wave swamped him, which was awesome.
- Shower daily?: Not since I hiked on the Appalachian Trail. Besides, I prefer long, relaxing baths.
- Sing well?: I've got potential. My highs are so loud I'm afraid to go there outside of the privacy of driving in my car.
- In the shower?: No.
- Swear?: In a limited fashion.
- Stuffed Animals?: No.
- Single/Group dates: Both have their advantages.
- Strawberries/Blueberries: I look forward to trying the best of both. I've never had very good ones of either.
- Scientists need to invent: Won't that just make things worse?
Too bad they can't make GM pollen catchers so none of it infects my future crops.

T
- Time for bed: usually earlier than what ends up happening
- Thunderstorms: Bring it, bring it, bring it. Rise, winds! Driving sideways rain! Raarrr!
- Touch your tongue to your nose?: Not without pushing my nose down with my finger. I can touch my upper lip to my nose though.

U
- Unpredictable: I can be.
- Under the influence?: I had half a shot of espresso poured over caramel in whole milk with 6 pumps vanilla syrup earlier (an iced Caramel Macchiato with only a little espresso).
- Understanding?: That's my aim.

V
- Vegetable you hate: I'm not a fan of straw mushrooms. Wait, that's a fungus. I don't hate any vegetables, but I've yet to eat good eggplant. But baked well with plenty of butter and breadcrumbs and salt and pepper and it'd probably taste good.
- Vegetable you love: really good tomatoes, not that tastes-like-funny-water waste bred for shipping
- Vacation spot: If I won some contest (i.e. I didn't have to come up with the money) I'd say I wanted to visit Mt. Kurama (Japan) (and take in the architecture of shrines, palaces, and old-style houses) and then go diving with manta rays. More time? And visit spas and hot springs. And eat really good food. And on the way home get to go to the Bon Ton in Vancouver and eat there and get my fortune told. And travel by ship and train, unless the TSA molesters aren't involved. And then tour all the potential areas I might live, which mostly includes rural Eastern Canada and mountainous New Mexico and Arizona. It'd be cool to visit Australia, too... Oh and will this contest pay for me to see Houston Ballet performances? That would be so awesome. I'd see every performance of the Nutcracker or Swan Lake if I could.

W
- Weakness: tasty food, and interesting stuff on the internet when I ought to be going to bed
- When you grow up: Have maybe 3 kits? I want to be a respected parent. Not demanding it, but earning it. Means I managed to do a good job.
To be capable.
Maybe produce some original music, some stories, artwork, handmade clothes and wood furnishings, and act, dance, and/or sing on stage.
- Which one of your friends acts the most like you:
- Who made me you laugh the most: Jeff Gore in 9th grade Spanish
- Worst feeling: Nothing comes to mind immediately, and I don't want to go searching.
- Wanted to be a model?: No. Too short anyway. I would have been commercial print (a cover girl). I was discovered in High School but my mom said no. Probably for the best. My eyebrows are excellent the way they are.
- Where do we go when we die: another plane of existence
- Worst weather: heat
- Walk with a book on your head?: I've got better things to do. Walking on a tightrope though, that'd be cool. Wish I had one of those.

X
- X-Rays: Marie Curie

Y
- Year it is now: 2011
- Yellow: kitchen of a woman I respect

Z
- Zoo animal: If there were manta rays in zoos I'd visit a zoo. I'd like to see foxes.
- Zodiac sign: Leo
