Sorry I'm slacking on answering comments and catching up on LJs. Things have been a bit rough lately.

25 What's one item that you wish you owned right now?
Nothing comes to mind.

26 Do you like makeup?
It depends. I think some can look great.

27 What celebrity death(s) that affected you the most?
Davy Jones from The Monkees. I think because it was rather unexpected. I actually cried when I mentioned it to a friend, which really caught me off guard. Anton Yelchin (the Star Trek actor) too. That was such a stupid, infuriating accident and I really hope he didn't suffer.

Christine took some pictures of Daisy for me yesterday. The two I'm getting printed are under the cut.

24 What's the first thing you do when you get on the computer?

I usually have to reset the clock. The internal battery in my desktop has gone so my computer clock usually stops when the plugs are turned off at night.


What about you guys?

This time, the Shopping Clutter game is about a wedding, so lots of the items are wedding related: Food, clothing, flowers etc.

About 2 levels in, I encountered this item and it took me an embarrassingly long time to work out what it actually is.

Possibly NSFW?

23 How long does it take for you to fall asleep at night?

Usually, not that long now I'm used to the ventilator mask. I occasionally have nights when it's difficult for me to get to sleep and I keep on waking up.

I'm playing the Christmas version of the Shopping Clutter games. It's all very jolly with lots of Christmassy items. All you have to do is collect pairs of various items, or collect specific items. It's rather soothing.

On this particular level, the items have been cut in half and are on a conveyer belt. And there's a decapitated Santa head sliding past. He looks surprisingly happy. @@

20. If you could marry any celebrity today who would it be?
I wouldn't. I'd have to get to know the real person first.

21 Do you own anything that's an antique?
I have some old coins but nothing especially valuable.

22 Do you let your hair air dry or do you blowdry it?
Air dry, definitely.

17 Do you like going to museums? Any particular type?
Yes. The few times I've been, I've thoroughly enjoyed it. I'd love to go to an Egyptian museum.

18 What time do you usually go to bed at on weekends?
Whatever time my carers arrive.

19 How often do you re-watch / re-read things or are you more ‘once only’?
I frequently re-watch or re-read things. I'm currently re-watching The Mirror Crack'd From Side to Side (Miss Marple, with Joan Hickson) and re-reading Nemesis (Miss Marple).

16 Were you born with naturally straight teeth?

11 What's something you've experienced that very few others have?

I'm positive I've seen an orb.

This was about 30 years ago. I was asleep in bed and I woke up suddenly. There was a round light right next to my bed. It ws really bright but it didn't light up the area surrounding it - there was a sharp cut off point between the light itself and the darkness surrounding it.

I looked at it for a couple of seconds, then it seemed to realise I was awake and it shot past my head and disappeared into my headboard.

10. Did your parents live in a different country before you were born?

No idea about my father, but my mum lived in Germany for a few years in the 50s and 60s because her dad was in the RAF.

8 What did your parents do when you were growing up?

My mother mainly read books. If you mean her actual job, she was a bookkeeper. As in accounts, but she kept lots and lots of books too.

As for my father, I have no idea since I never met the guy.

7 If you had to move to a new city, where would you move?

I wouldn't. I don't like living in a city as I much prefer grass and greenery and the countryside.

5 After high school – straight to college or straight to work?
Straight to unemployment, actually.

Food, iced coffee, milk, and cans of diet coke and dark berry Tango.
