One meme, slightly used.

Borrowed from beow11.

1; Have you ever actually sat down and thought about why you like the person you like?
*sighs* Once again, I take it to mean like as in highschool like, but whatever. The honest answer is, frequently. Aside from being very clever and having an excellent sense of humour, this person helped me through a rather tough time in my life and through integrity and compassion inspired me to be a little bit of a better person. What's not to like?

2; When people say, "Honestly, I don't think I've ever talked crap about anyone" do you believe it?
Not really, no. They may try not to, but it usually happens now and then anyway if only because you can't talk honestly about anyone you know very well without also acknowledging their flaws, and in this day and age, if you say anything about a person's short-comings it's considered "talking crap". What I look for is more why they do it rather than whether they do it.

3; Is there someone you'd really like to hang out with and just talk about stuff?
Yep, I can think of someone.

4; Is there something that has happened in your past that you really hate?
I can think of a couple of things...

5; Do you think a lot of people think bad things about you?
Not a lot, probably one or two.

6; Do you think you're approachable?
It varies. If I'm among people I feel comfortable around, then yes. If not, I tend to be a little aloof.

7; Do you regret doing anything this week?
I regret not driving more.

8; Name something you wouldn’t want to buy used?
A bathing suit.

9; When did you last cry?
I think probably sometime in the last couple of weeks or so.

10; How late did you stay up last night?
11 a.m.

11; Has someone of the opposite sex ever told you they loved you?
A few. Depending on the person and situation, I haven't always believed it.

12; What do you think of the most when you are alone?
I tend to divide it equally between running over the list of things I need to work on, missing friends, and trying to keep myself occupied.

13; Suppose you see your crush kissing another person, what would you do?
Feel a little stab of regret, casually find out if it's a serious situation and whether it's monogamous or poly. Depending on the answer, I'd either wish them the best or feel out whether there might be a chance for me to join in.

14; Would you ever become a vegetarian or even vegan?
Hmmm, probably not. Veggies are great and all, and I have friends and families who are vegetarians and with whom I've tried vegetarian dishes that I've liked. However, I like meat much too much to want to give it up entirely.

15; Do you like your school?
I don't have one, presently.

16; Are you a flirt?
But for rare occasions, not really, no.

17; Have you ever held hands?
*snickers* Um, yes. It's very nice, actually, and I kinda miss getting to.

18; When was the last time that you went swimming, where, and what color was your swim suit?
Hmmm, two years ago, the Nashville Inn (nice, indoor, heated pool), and black.

19; How often do you talk on the phone?
Not that often, actually.

20; If you need a new pair of jeans, what store do you go to first?
Whatever's closest.

21; Did you ever lose a best friend?
A couple in my time.

22; Have you ever gotten mad because somebody said they'd call you and they didn't?
Back in highschool I probably did. Now, I figure what happens happens, and getting mad is often a waste of energy. People have lives, things come up, and if I have their number, who says I can't call them, if I want to talk so badly?

23; Have you ever met a real life prostitute?
I work at a hotel. What do you think?

25; Can you do push-ups?
Sure.

27; What is wrong with you right now?
Aside from my life being just a tad stalled? Nothing much, really.

28; Who do you hate?
I don't see the point in hating people. The worst I can usually muster is disgust or indifference.

29; What do you want in your life right now?
I would love to be moved out of Mom's. I moved in to keep her above water and she's doing well enough, now, that she doesn't particularly need me aside from the use of my car. Eventually, I would also like to have a good relationship with someone I can talk to, count on, and have mind-blowing sex with.

30; Are you happy right now?
Doin' pretty well, sure.

31; What are you listening to?
The TV in the background.

32; Drinking?
Not at the moment, but I will now and then. Not usually anything strong.

33; What is your favorite thing to have on your bed?
Oh, some delicious creature who can stimulate the mind as well as s/he can other places.

34; Last time you went in a tanning bed?
Never. I prefer the pale look. I only get tan if I happen to be outside a lot, and I usually burn first.

35; What do you wear to bed?
Usually, nothing.

36; Do you tend to make relationships complicated?
I try to keep them simple, but it doesn't generally work.

37; What are you doing/did today?
Got my car fixed (for too bloody much money), slept, hung out with my little sis, studied Japanese, worked, watched Ghost Hunters and X-Files.

39; Have you ever been nominated for something?
Well, I was nominated (and subsequently voted in as) the Most Likely to Become a Mad Scientist in my senior year. The mad part was dead on, but I'm closer to the poetic/artistic variety of looney.

42; Do you remember your dreams?
A little over half the time, and about fifty percent of them are prophetic. Usually just mundane things, like something I'll do next week. Now and then it's something big. Vultures tend to show up when there's some kind of death or disaster on the way.

43; Do you read?
Voraciously.

44; who was the last person to call you hun?
*ponders* I'm not sure. Normally I'm the one who calls people that.

45; what was the last thing you bought?
Gas and one of those oranges'n'cream Sobe drinks. (You know how the bottlcaps always say something strange on the inside? I am on an endless quest to help my little sis collect the weirdest ones. So far our favourite says: "Men's night with Louie" :-|)

It occurred to me...

It's been forever and a day since I posted some icons. So, here's a few (and more to come shortly). Please comment if you're taking, credit, and enjoy! :-)
