Domestic Geek

Late as usual, I know:



1) Girls of the world ain't nothin' but...
Shallow, back-stabbing, two-faced, pains-in-the-butt. Ouch, did I type that? Sorry, even though I am technically a girl, I've never got along with them much and most of my good "girlfriends" are more of the tomboyish type. I'd rather hang out with a bunch of guys anyday.

2) Who's the meaning in your life, who's your inspiration?
It is my boyfriend, Marcus. Some days I don't think I'd be able to go on if he wasn't around. My friend Traci is also a great source of inspiration.

3) What do people like about you? (Bonus: Do you really know how to dance?)
I don't know, does anybody even like me? Just kidding, but you'd have to ask them.
Sorry, I don't dance. Not that I couldn't, I just never learned how. I used to try when I clubbed in the 80's. Of course, I was ususally extremely intoxicated.

4) Are you an innocent wo/man?
Nope, haven't been for a veeeeeery long time.

5) Is your house in the middle of your street?
No, actually, it's at the very end. Thank goodness we only have icky white trash neighbors on one side of the house.

6) Did you have Pac-Man fever?
I did. I think we had it on our old Atari game system. I really sucked at it, though. I know my mom kicked butt on it.

7) Do you always feel like, somebody's watching you? And you have no privacy? (Woah, oh, oh, oh.)
Yes, Yes I do (see yesterday's rant). I can hardly wait until the day Marcus and I have our acreage and I can truly have privacy.

8) Why do they call it the blues?
I know it's based on the jazz term, but I don't know where that name originated, either, and I'm too lazy to look it up. I wish there was a different term because I actually like the color blue. It's a serene and peaceful color. They really should call it the grays or olive greens or something yucky like that.

1. How often do you do laundry?
Only when absolutely necessary. It's usually when I'm out of something, like underwear or socks. Marcus is ususally more inclined to do laundry more often. He ususally does it about once a week. How cool is that?

2. What's in a typical wash load?
We separate everything. There is usually do a load of lights, a load of darks and a load of towels.

3. Front or top loader? Powder or liquid detergent?
I've got a Sears Kenmore top loading washer and use Gain powder with bleach (Marcus' detergent preference).

4. Do you use fabric softener in the rinse cycle?
Nope. We do use unscented Bounce dryer sheets. I'm allergic to anything scented.

5. Dryer or clothesline?
We have a matching Sears Kenmore dryer. I hate drying clothes on a line. Too much work.

1) What's in your room?
Way too much STUFF! Computers, books, nine pets, lots of craft stuff, wolf collection, teddy bear collection, Star Trek memorabilia, South Park stuff, and that doesn't include Marcus' things.

2) Do you have fame?
No, and I don't want any. Fame brings way more pressure than I'm willing to live with.

3) Are you on a road to nowhere?
Some days it feels like it. Maybe I'm on a long detour.

4) Ooh, are you a little runaway?
No, but there are days I wish I could be.

5) Have you ever felt the earth move, under your feet?
Can't say that I have.

6) I've been waiting, for a...
Winning lottery ticket. I still don't have one.

7) If you love somebody...
Tell them and, if they'll let you, show them. Often.

8) Tell me lies, tell me sweet little lies.
Do I have to? I'm really bad at it.

1. What's the last vivid dream that you remember having?
I had this a few nights ago: I was trying to get back into school at UNC (Northern Colorado) as I had one more semester to go, but I couldn't find a place to live and the bassoon professor wouldn't let me sign up to take lessons.

2. Do you have any recurring dreams?
I used to. There was one where cars were trying to go on a hot wheels type of loop and couldn't get enough speed to make the loop and were crashing below. Creepy.

3. What's the scariest nightmare you've ever had?
I honestly can't remember any, although I know I've had some. I must block them or something. I remember a few months ago waking up really scared and sweaty and I was afraid to go back to sleep. I told Marcus about the dream when he woke up, but now neither of us can remember what it was about.

4. Have you ever written your dreams down or considered it? Why or why not?
No on both counts. I don't really see the point.

5. Have you ever had a lucid dream? What did you do in it?
I don't remember ever having one of those.

Man, I haven't done one of these in a few weeks---



1) Are you forever young?
I look it, but I sure don't feel it. People never believe that I'm as old as I am, but the aches and pains give me away.

2) Are you like a virgin?
Not even.

3) Are you looking for a new love, baby?
Nope, perfectly happy with the one I've got.

4) Are you in control?
I'm totally out of control. It's been so long since I have had control, I don't even remember what it feels like.

5) Have you ever been where the streets have no name?
Yes, delivering pizzas to new subdivisions with no street signs. Very confusing.

6) Do you have a touch of grey?
Just a little. I've had a few grey hairs since high school. My sister used to think it was funny to pull them out when I wasn't paying attention.

7) When was the last time you celebrated good times?
I honestly can't remember.

8) Are you wild an' willin' or is it just for show?
None of the above.
