Just a little further down the line

No new interview questions today. *sulk sulk*

So, to save original thinking on my part, here's a Seven Deadly Sins meme instead, nicked from jon_p

WRATH
1. Whom did you last get angry with? My mother.
2. What is your weapon of choice? My tongue, and my knowledge of a person's weak spots.
3. Would you hit a member of the opposite sex? Not unless they hit me first.
4. How about of the same sex? See above.
5. Who was the last person who got really angry at you? My mother.
6. What is your pet peeve? Littering. Especially involving glass and/or dog crap.
7. Do you keep grudges, or can you let them go easily? I can usually let them go pretty easily.

SLOTH
1. What is one thing you're supposed to do daily that you haven't done in a while? Exercise. Especially sit-ups.
2. What is the latest you've ever woken up? Ever? Probably about 8pm. But I've lived many years with a very random Circadian rhythm, so if it was that late it probably just means I went to bed at 12 noon...
3. Name a person you've been meaning to contact, but haven't? watervole, and my Dad. I promised him some pics and I've yet to email them...
4. What is the last lame excuse you made? I try not to make lame excuses. I just say, "Sorry, I'm a bone idle slattern and I haven't got round to it yet."
5. Have you ever watched an infomercial all the way through (one of the long ones...)? Lord, no. I'm not that much of a masochist.
6. When was the last time you got a good workout in? Probably back in the 90s sometime.
7. How many times did you hit the snooze button on your alarm clock today? My alarm clock doesn't have one. If it did it wouldn't get me out of bed at all. As it is I have to keep it on the other side of the room for it to be any use.

GLUTTONY
1. What is your overpriced yuppie beverage of choice? Elderflower champagne.
2. Meat eaters: white meat or dark meat? Dark meat. Or bloody red meat. I like juicy.
3. What is the greatest amount of alcohol you've had in one sitting/outing/event? Half a bottle of vodka. I don't have a high tolerance for alcohol.
4. Have you ever used a professional diet company? Not successfully or for very long.
5. Do you have an issue with your weight? Oh hell, yes. Way too fat.
6. Do you prefer sweets, salty foods, or spicy foods? Salty, spicy, then sweet.
7. Have you ever looked at a small pet or child and thought, "LUNCH"? Pets, no. Children, occasionally. I imagine they'd be rather like sucking pigs - crispy outside and very tender inside...

LUST
1. How many people have you seen naked (not counting movies/family)? Never counted. Ten or twelve?
2. How many people have seen YOU naked (not counting physicians/family)? One or two more than above.
3. Have you ever caught yourself staring at the chest/crotch of a member of your gender of choice during a normal conversation? No. But I have looked into people's eyes and imagined being on my knees looking up at their "come face" with a cock lodged somewhere near my tonsils. Does that count?
4. Have you "done it"? Lots. And not nearly enough.
5. What is your favorite body part on a person of your gender of choice? Every single inch.
6. Have you ever been propositioned by a prostitute? Yes, and if the proposition hadn't also included doing crack with her, I'd have taken her up on it. (This was after I'd stopped doing hard drugs). I've also been mistaken for a prostitute a few times, although I'd think you'd have to be pretty desperate and/or clueless to think a woman in jeans, long sleeves and ratty trainers out walking a dog is looking for business just because she keeps late hours and happens to live near a red light district.
7. Have you ever had to get tested for an STD or pregnancy? I've been tested for HIV and chlamydia, but not as a direct result of sex with anyone - both were routine checks before surgery and before having my IUD put in. I've never had a pregnancy scare.

GREED
1. How many credit cards do you own? None. I don't have a credit rating to speak of, and I know myself far too well to subject myself to that sort of temptation in any case.
2. What's your guilty pleasure store? Bookstores and sex toy retailers.
3. If you had $1 million, what would you do with it? Buy a place with a big garden, a hot tub and a swimming pool, and pay a few plane fares so we could have the Grand International Terran and TrekBBS Meet-up there.
4. Would you rather be rich or famous? Rich.
5. Would you accept a boring job if it meant you would make megabucks? Yes. But I doubt I'd keep the job for too long.
6. Have you ever stolen anything? Not in the last five years, but yes, plenty.
7. How many MP3s are on your hard drive? A bunch.

PRIDE
1. What's one thing you have done that you're most proud of? Retaining some self-respect and standards of decent behaviour through the junkie years.
2. What's one thing you have done that your parents are most proud of? Getting clean.
3. What's one thing would you like to accomplish in your life? To find someone (or a few someones) to have really mind-blowing kinky sex with. Am having trouble with this for some reason.
4. Do you get annoyed by coming in second place? I don't care who comes first as long as everyone gets to come.
6. Have you ever cheated on something to get a higher score? Nothing that really counted.
7. What did you do today that you're proud of? Nothing yet.

ENVY
1. What item of your friends would you most want to have for your own? How many of you have swimming pools?
2. Who would you want to go on "Trading Spaces" with? Can't think of anyone. Though captain_ice seems to have some mad decorating skills, from what I've read. But I'm too much of a control freak to like the idea of anyone but me altering my personal space.
3. If you could be anyone else in the world, who would you be? I wouldn't. I'm perfect.
4. Have you ever been cheated on? Not without prior consent.
5. Have you ever wished you had a physical feature different from your own? I'd like to be taller and not to have had such bad teeth.
6. What inborn trait do you see in others that you wish you had for yourself? Self-discipline; the ability to force oneself to do things you really don't want to.

FINALLY
What is your favorite deadly sin? Do I even need to answer this one? Gluttony comes a close second.

In other news, the disgusting ignorant pigfucking barbarians who don't pick up after their dogs are going to spend the afterlife having to empty cesspools with their mouths if I have anything to do with it. Especially the one who leaves turds on my little greenspace every bloody day, for several reasons - one, I dislike treading in it as much anyone does, and I dislike my dogs treading in it and tracking it into my flat even more. Two, my dogs are highly visible and recognisable, so anyone else seeing dogshit lying around is likely to assume I'm the disgusting barbarian, and three, I caught Squish attempting to eat it this morning. So I'm having to pick up some other fucker's dog turds every bloody day in sheer self defense. This does not please me!

Edited to add:

I am: 28% Republican.

"You're probably one of those people who still thinks that getting a blowjob is not an impeachable offense."

Are You A Republican?

Fire - I'll take you to bed...

Today started out as a crappy day - nasty grey rain, and I couldn't get awake - four in the afternoon and I was sitting here after six pints of coffee feeling like I had a bag over my head.

Then things started to get more interesting. A new and promising IM contact. Too far away for more than dirty words - but he's good at words. I am impressed - and I do take some impressing, as you know...

And then I check in Terran, and Herbie's back - after being away so very long that I was seriously doubting I'd see him again. And he has a new shiny laptop of his own, which might mean seeing him back on IM and LJ - I won't hold my breath, but a girl can hope....

*does naked happy dance*

Squish likes The Crazy World of Arthur Brown. Not only that, but he now has Spike joining in. It's lucky for them I'm in such a fucking good mood, that's all.
