eponymous_roseIt's time for a random meme! Yet again. This one's stolen from scarletsherlock!
scarletsherlock!The Countdown survey
100.WHATS YOUR MYSPACE SONG AND WHY?
Y'know, I've actually never been on Myspace, so I don't have a clue what a "Myspace song" entails. It sounds ominous. Possibly romantic.
99. DO YOU HAVE A JOB? IF SO WHAT IS IT?
Research assistant!
98. MIDDLE NAME?
Kate!
97.DO YOU HAVE A CRUSH ON SOMEONE?
Unless you count goofy celebrity crushes, not in the least. :D
96. LIED IN THE LAST 24 ?
Probably.
95. BEST BREAK UP SONG?
Haven't given it much thought.
94. WHERE WAS THE LAST PLACE YOU TOOK A PLANE TO?
Heathrow!
93. WHAT IS THE LAST MOVIE YOU WATCHED?
Wordplay. Actually a very fun movie about crossword puzzles!
92. WHAT MAKES YOU MAD?
All sorts of things! I actually have a very short fuse - but I calm down equally quickly. Generally, anyway.
91. WHAT WOULD YOU LIKE TO BE WHEN YOU GROW UP?
Just at the moment, I'm leaning toward eccentric-but-fun professor of meteorology at a prominent university. Aim high!
90. WHAT'S YOUR NAME?
eponymous_rose! Haven't you been paying attention?
88. DO YOU HAVE A FRIEND OF THE OPPOSITE SEX YOU CAN TALK TO?
Except for my roommates, nearly all of my friends are of the opposite sex. Dunno what that's about. And, yeah, I can talk to most of 'em.
87. DO YOU HAVE ANY SIBLINGS?
A seventeen-year-old brother!
86. WHERE ARE YOU NOW?
On a couch at my parents' place, half-watching a fifth-season Sopranos. It's good.

72. LAST TIME YOU LISTENED TO COUNTRY MUSIC?
I think there was a country song in one of the last episodes of the Sopranos I watched.
69. WHAT ARE YOUR FEARS?
They change a fair bit. Heights make me all wobbly-kneed, which means that building weather stations on the roof of a fifteen-storey building was a heckuva lot of fun. Lightning freaks me out, too. :D

56. WHAT ARE YOU DOING NOW?
Watching TV and typing. After I'm done this, I'll go back to watching TV and reading a Doctor Who novel. MULTITASKING FTW!

It's been a very long time. Which I'm actually okay with. :D
54. WOULD YOU DIE FOR SOMEONE?
Yup!
53. LATEST THING YOU’VE RECENTLY LEARNED?

Not even with a fan on full-blast.

The lasagna Dad's making for tomorrow.
50. IS ANYTHING BOTHERING YOU RIGHT NOW?
Not really, nope!

Going to visit my Gran, doing a little driving, playing some crib, taking Gran out for lunch, eating lasagna here, taking the bus back to the condo and then getting ready for work the next day.
47. IF YOUR EX WANTED YOU BACK, WOULD YOU TAKE THEM BACK?
I'm still not entirely sure I have an ex.
37. FAVORITE SMELL?
Can someone please teach the meme-makers to count? Just, y'know, once? Do I need to pull out the flashcards again? And, um, many things.

Date: 2007-07-23 05:10 pm (UTC)Don't know how you have the patience to do a 100 questions. A lot of them I have to say not being particularly fascinating.
Possibly this mysterious patience explains why you are a person of many and varied accomplishments. :)
94. WHERE WAS THE LAST PLACE YOU TOOK A PLANE TO?
I was about to say "probably Amsterdam", but the answer must be "probably Heathrow". Otherwise I'd still be in Holland wouldn't I?
88. DO YOU HAVE A FRIEND OF THE OPPOSITE SEX YOU CAN TALK TO?
Yes, lots.
78. CLOSEST BLACK OBJECT?
Wallet.
59. WHO DID YOU LAST CALL?
My sister, just now.
55. WHO WAS THE LAST PERSON YOU HUGGED?
Now that you mention it, someone called Lisa. A former classmate I met at a reunion over the weekend.
47. IF YOUR EX WANTED YOU BACK, WOULD YOU TAKE THEM BACK?
Now that is a very interesting question. Firstly which ex? I would give it serious consideration at least, and have a proper talk with them.
33. WHAT WOULD YOU DO IF YOU FOUND OUT YOU WERE PREGNANT?
Being a man, I would ask for a second opinion. :)
In the unlikely event of it being confirmed, I might sell the story rights for a zillion bucks to the highest bidder. Also, I would hire a nanny.
18. DO YOU LIKE 80’S MOVIES?
Umm... they're not all the same are they? So some, yes.
13. BEST CITY YOU’VE VISTED?
Don't think in terms of bests. Some of my faves are Boston, San Fran, Vancouver, Hong Kong.
12. BEEN TO LONDON?
Technically no. As I live here.
4. WHAT ARE YOU LOOKING FORWARD TO?
Visiting my sister and nieces. Going to a football match with my brother-in-law. Playing tennis, if there is a sunny evening on Weds. Heroes starting on TV on Weds. Getting hold of a copy of Deathly Hallows sometime.
1. ARE YOU AFRAID WHEN YOU'RE HOME ALONE?
Nope. A fully paid up member of Hermits United. :)

Date: 2007-07-23 05:18 pm (UTC)Re: last place you took a plane to - Oh. Right. I guess Heathrow wasn't the last, then. Either that, or I've suddenly become very good at swimming and walking cross-country. Which is, y'know, possible!
...No?
Okay. Last place would've been... Calgary!
I think I need a Hermits United t-shirt! It'd save me a lot of explanations.
no subject
Date: 2007-07-23 09:54 pm (UTC)Yes, we should get Hermits United t-shirts.
It'd save explaining how we're hermits... hermits with friends... who go out quite a lot... :)
no subject
Date: 2007-07-23 11:10 pm (UTC)As for swimming back to Canada - last time I was in a moderately-sized body of water, I nearly drowned and wound up getting rescued by a horse. I don't even want to imagine what sort of creature would have to rescue me if I attempted to swim an ocean. :D
no subject
Date: 2007-07-25 03:45 pm (UTC)Rescued by a horse?
As they say... "You do lead an interesting life Mr Beeblebrox." :)

Date: 2007-07-28 12:51 am (UTC)Horses have excellent timing, though!
