Yeah, I know. All my posts recently have been memes. And guess what--here's another.

What song are you listening to? "Time," Pink Floyd. <333

Why do you like that song? It's so true. I know that sounds all emo and teenangst of me, but it really is such a true song.

What did your last incoming text message say? I don't have a cell phone.

Look at your received call list. Who is #5? I don't have a cell phone. So number five is irrelevant and kinda meaningless.

Did you answer? Yes, I answered the phone I don't have. Psssh.

Who did you last talk to on aim? Erica, and she sent me a picture. :]

Do you ever wish you were a different race, and if so, what? Well, seeing as how I'm quite possibly the whitest white girl ever, yes--I have. Pretty much any other race would be interesting.

Would you date someone of another race? Sure. Not an issue.

Do hobos frighten you? Depends.

What's the most you have ever spent in the crane toy machines? Three bucks to get my brother a plushie Spiderman.

What color are your shoelaces? Blue. With white clay spatters.

If you could live anywhere, where would it be? Hmm. Hawaii. Or Ireland.

How much do you hate G.W. Bush on a scale of 1-10? I don't hate him.

When is the last time you were in a hospital? Sometime last semester.

Why were you there? I had an insanely bad cold and the beginnings of asthma craziness.

What is the most painful piercing you have had? I've only pierced my ears, and that didn't really hurt.

Why do you take these surveys? I've got nothing better to do. Or I'm avoiding work.

Are you a member of the mile high club? Hehehe. No.

Would you ever pick up a hitchhiker? No. I've heard too many urban legends.

Would you ever hitchhike? Heh. No.

Have you ever cried after one of your favorite sports teams lost a game? No. I've said angry words as the opposing team ran past, but never cried.

Would you marry a 90-year-old billionaire? Only if he were Sean Connery. :]

Would you cut off one of your fingers for the perfect body? Nah. I need my fingers, and I like my body just fine.

What about a toe? Depends. Could it be my teeniny baby toe that doesn't seem to have a purpose other than getting stubbed constantly? 'Cause that thing'd be off in a heartbeat.

Have you ever kept a fortune from a Chinese fortune cookie? Hehehe. All the time. Now, do I know where I put them would be a better question.

Have you ever told a lover that they were good in bed, when they were not? Haven't slept with anyone, so... no.

Would you jump into a lake to save a stranger? I'm really not that great of a swimmer. And aren't you supposed to try to reach, throw, and row before you jump in?

Do you think your life story would make a great movie? Only if it were directed by Tim Burton and scored by Danny Elfman, and starring Christopher Walken, Michael Weatherly, Joe Flanigan, Josh Holloway, and myself. That movie would rock.

What T.V. show world would you fit right into? Hmm. Well, pretty much any sci-fi show. I can technobabble with the best of them. But I'd love to be on Monk or NCIS or The Dead Zone, too.

What was the sweetest thing a guy/girl did for you? Gave me bubble wrap. :]

What is your social status?(i.e:prep, clown, goth..) Parameters, meh.

What's the last pill you've taken? Advil, this morning.

Would you rather be in a room with Micheal Jackson or a rattlesnake? ...Can the snake dance?

Have you ever gone to a bookstore a 12am to buy the next Harry Potter book? No, but I've gone at 8 AM to a Potter Party, where they served chocolate frogs and punch and we all got free spectacles. It was cool.

Have you ever been so bored that you counted cracks in the walls? I do a lot of crazy stuff when I'm bored.

If your eyes could be any color, what color would they be? Hm. I like my eye color.

Do you read while you eat? Depends on what I'm eating. Cheetos, probably not. Anything else, though, is fine.

What's the weirdest combination of food you've ever eaten? Mustard, Ketchup, and chocolate milk-- mixed together, and put on french fries.

Were you pregnant or pmsing when eating it? It was a really long lunch period, with people I didn't like. Like I said, I do crazy things when bored.

How long does it usually take you to drink a glass of beverage? I go through drinks pretty fast.

What did you want to be when you were in kindergarten? A muppet, I think.

What is your favorite movie, and why? We don't have the time for this one: The Adventures of Baron Munchausen, Amelie, Casablanca, Edward Scissorhands, K-PAX, Moulin Rouge!, Napoleon Dynamite, Pirates, etc etc etc. Movies that make my favorites list usually have many goodnesses.

Have you ever read a life changing book? What was it? What was so special? I don't know about life-changing. I've read some amazing books, but not any that have made me reevaluate my life.

Ever watched a life changing movie? What was it? What was so special? 2001: A Space Odyssey. I think I was four or five, and it got to that scene where [SPOILERS!] HAL turns off the life-support, and then there's the "My mind is going, I can feel it. I can feel it" scene-- it just really brought home that some actions were irrevocable, that you couldn't take it back when people died. I'm sure I've got others, too, like OMG Harvey, which probably solidified my childhood fears of lobotomy and my love for black and white movies, and Amelie, which really resonated with me, but this answer has already gone on too long.

If you could change your name, what would it be? I almost got named Victoria. Sometimes I wonder if I would have liked it. I like Alex, though.

When you were afraid of the dark, what was the creature that haunted you? The Twirly Wind. It came in the night and would steal Baba, the thing I slept with. And ghosts. They were all over my room and could take on the shape of people and animals I knew.

What is your favorite cartoon from the 1980's? TMNT! Care Bears! Muppet Babies!

1990\'s? Animaniacs! Freakazoid! Uh... that one with the jet-flying anthropomorphic cats! Dexter's Lab! Johnny Bravo, the ones directed by Kirk Tingblad, and yes I’m terribly, terribly pathetic for knowing cartoon eps by their director.

2000\'s? SpongeBob. Hands down.

What song comforts you when you are sad? "Don't Worry, Be Happy”—Bobby Darin. Also, “Changes”—David Bowie. Also, “Let It Be” and “Hey Jude” by the Beatles.
