ghost: what would you like on your tombstone?
I don't want a tombstone. I'd like to be cremated and put in an urn. Or perhaps my remains will be of use to a hospital or medical school.
dracula: are you afraid of aging? or death?
Neither. I'm afraid of losing my faculties.
nosferatu: what, as a child, did you imagine went bump in the night?
I was afraid of be awoken by either a clown or a fire in my bedroom.
godzilla: what do you do when you are angry? are you ever destructive?
I get hostile and snappish.
the blob: do you collect anything? if so, what and why?
I collect books. Because they're books.
zombie: when was the last time you trusted your gut? was it successful?
Nothing comes to mind. Sorry.
mothra: what is something dangerous that attracts or fascinates you?
Whenever I go to the zoo, I find myself transfixed by the alligators.
king kong: what are some questionable choices you've made lately?
How about farting around on the internet when I could be doing housework, sorting laundry, organizing my bookshelves ...
alien: what is your strangest feature?
My sense of humor. I often find inappropriate things funny.
cthulhu: do you like the ocean? why or why not?
I like the ocean. Because it's vast and it compasses so many shades of blue and green (my two favorite colors).
nessie: have you ever felt invisible to people -- the feeling of not existing?
Yes. It happens more and more often as I get older.
mutant spider: what is one of your biggest fears?
Airline travel.
werewolf: if you could change into any nonhuman animal and back at will, what animal would you change into and why?
One of my cats. That way I would know better how to make my home happier for them.
golem: if you could make up an imaginary friend, what would they be like and why?
I object to this question. Why can't I make up an imaginary friend any time I wish to?
leprechaun: what is your "pot of gold" (or white whale, if you'd rather)
Peace of mind.
sharktopus: what is something you've done that was ridiculous or a bad decision?
I stayed in a relationship way too long. I think of him every time I hear the Huey Lewis song, "If This Is It." There's a line that goes: let me go or make me want to stay. That sums up that relationship.
robot: what is a habit you do without thinking?
I catch myself scratching the inside of my ear with a pen. I do it when I'm lost in thought and not paying attention. It's creepy and I wish it didn't.
Books.....I get it.
ReplyDeleteAlligators are very cool. From a distance.
Farting around on the internet...I should have thought of that questionable behavior, but I was actually pretty productive yesterday and feeling good about that.
I find it terribly sad how many of us say we experience feeling invisible.
My sense of humor and your sense of humor? I wonder what we would be like together in a coffee shop. And I think we should all make up imaginary friends RIGHT NOW, dang it. Why not?
ReplyDeleteI think it's easier to have an imaginary friend now. You can sit in a coffee shop and talk with said friend and people will think you're talking to someone on your phone!
DeleteI should have said that I collect books, but books are such a part of who I am that I don't even think of "collecting" them...they just ARE.
ReplyDelete#9 reminds me that I rub my index finger middle knuckle in the dip under my nose when I correct papers...
ReplyDeleteBooks, too many books! Yep, I didn't even think of them as a collection. They even seem to have their own collection; it's called,"Dust".
ReplyDeleteI think I'll go make an imaginary friend right now. ;o)
