"Thinking Meme"

1. If you had to choose one vice in exclusion of all others what would it be?

running the heater as warm as I want it to be all winter long. and chocolate.

2. If you could change one specific thing about the world what would it be?

The rampant stupidity. The storehouse of un-used common sense must be visible from outer space.


3. Name the cartoon character you identify with the most.

Wakko. I mean, his name really says it all, doesn't it?

4. If you could live one day in your life over again which one would it be?

I don't remember the exact date, but it was a Sunday during my Sophomore year of college. I had a HUGE fight with my mom and said some things I shouldn't have. Even though things are ok now, I will always regret that day.

5. If you could go back in history and spend a day with one person who would it be?

Famous person: Marlon Brando
Reason: To see if he actually could "have been a contenda"
Not famous persons: My grandparents.
Reason: To talk to them as an adult and find out who they were, rather than just relying on the vague memories from a little girl.

6. What is the one thing you lost, sold or threw away that you wish you could have back?

This is hard to answer because I don't put a lot of stock in posessions. I just don't get sentimental over things. I would say something funny like "my sanity", but I don't think I ever had that to begin with. I guess I would say that the one thing I lost that I wish I could have back is my cat, Snobe. He died several years ago, but he was a cool cat.


7. What is your one most important contribution to this world?

I could be all noble and say, 'well, I'm a teacher, so my contribution is giving the gift of knowledge and music to my students' (wow, I almost puked as I was typing that!), but honestly, I think my most important contribution is my amazing good looks.

8. What is your one hidden talent that nearly no one knows about?

I don't think I have one. I guess it's because I have so few talents that it seems silly to keep any of them hidden.

9. What is your most cherished possession?

This is another hard one to answer because of the whole not getting attached to things thing. But, I guess if I had to pick, I would say my horn. I've had it since 10th grade and although it's gone through some pretty interesting transformations (I'll tell you about that sometime), it's also gone through some really memorable occasions with me. Yeah, I think I would be pretty upset if it suddenly disappeared.

10. What one person influenced your life the most when growing up?

My parents. My neuroses wouldn't be nearly so interesting if it weren't for them.

11. What one word describes you better than any other?

probably the word "huh?". That's the reaction I get from people about 98% of the time when I talk. (the other 2%, they aren't actually listening)
