Oh, all right, then...

[desperance]

I've been avoiding this one - it's one of those "if you want to be my friend, tell me stuff about yourself and us" memes that seem a little intrusive or else a little public, perhaps publicly intrusive, to buttoned-up Britishers like me - but I am so very working, I just filled one out myself, and it seemed a little mean not to reciprocate.

Ganked from samarcand, then, and behind the cut (and it's okay, you really don't have to do it, you can still be my friend and I'll be yours even if I have no idea whether you'd give me a kidney. Hell, if you did, I'd probably only devil it and invite you to lunch):

Here you go then:

1. Middle Name: Tracey is what it says on my birth certificate - though I have 3 'first' names, that's the middle one of the three and the one that most, but not all, people call me in RealSpace.

2. Age: 40

3. Single or Taken: Taken (polyamorous person but really not looking just now)

4. Favorite Movie: Mutiny on the Bounty. Either of the 'real' versions.

5. Favorite Song: Erm. Varies. Lilac Wine by Jeff Buckley springs to mind

6. Favorite Band/Artist: Varies with my mood. Eliza Carthy, something early 80s rock, something else. Too much of a variable

7. Dirty or Clean: Yes

8. Tattoos and/or Piercings: Pierced ears, no other body art. I like tattoos on other people though.


HERE COMES THE FUN ... ... ...
1. Do we know each other outside of LJ? We've met and spoken to each other once, so - depends on the value of 'know' here.

2. Whats your philosophy on life? Live and let live

3. Would you have my back in a fight? Probably. Though if I thought you were in the wrong I'd give you grief about it later.

4. Would you keep a secret from me if you thought it was in my best interest? Depends on the secret.

5. What is your favorite memory of us? There's only the one so I guess that would be it. Agreeing that the books of [a certain author] make better steps than they do reading matter.

6. Would you give me a kidney? Probably, though would depend on how it was cooked. I'm not a huge fan of offal.

7. Tell me one odd/interesting fact about you: I currently smell of "The God of Sexual Desire, Longing and Yearning; an attendant of Eros and Aphrodite."

8. Would you take care of me when I'm sick? If I was around sure (though I'm invoking the Bubonic Plague clause here)

9. Can we get together and make a cake? Sure, I'm good in the kitchen, that sounds like fun.

10. Have you heard any rumors of me lately? Nope. Maybe I'm on the wrong grapevine

11. Do you/have you talk(ed) crap about me? No

12. Do you think I'm a good person? From all evidence available to me, yes. You like cats, how bad can you be?

13. Would you drive across country with me? Yes, roadtrips are fun.

14. Do you think I'm attractive? Yes.

15. If you could change anything about me, would you? Nothing springs to mind.

16. What do you wear to sleep? Either nothing or a t-shirt - I can't sleep if my shoulders get cold.

17. Would you come over for no reason just to hang out? Yes, if invited. I don't invite myself anywhere like that.

18. Would you go on a date with me if i asked you? Yes - for values of 'date' that don't imply romance.

19. If I only had one day to live, what would we do together? Whatever you wanted to - it's your last day after all.
