More Questiony Things

Again, off the normal format because of Lopez and Prunella...

Here is a questiony thing from Prunella's site, and since she is way cool, I reckon I'll complete it according to instructions:

1. What are your current obsessions?

Art of all kinds, investing, pretty women of course

2. Which items from your wardrobe do you wear most often?

My day job is in finance, so usually slacks, shirt, professional-like you know...

3. What's for dinner?

I love to grill (since I used to work for the Chilis parent company and spent time among the directors and culinary type folks), also I go out a lot.

4. Last creative thing you bought?

Art supply stuff - paints for fresco, and a book.

5. What are you listening to?

Right now? Some old cheesy reggae guitar and synthesizer song I recorded 10 years ago, lol.

6. If you were a god/goddess who would you be?

Poseidon/Neptune, I love the ocean and sailing, and strangely enough... horses (never understood why horses were associated with the god of the ocean, WTH?)

7. Favorite holiday spots?

Thera (Santorini) Greece at my favorite hotel on the Caldera

or Anywhere in Italy, but especially Venezia or Roma

Colorado in ski season

8. Reading right now?

Kings, Queens, Bones, and Bastards (English history)

9. Four words to describe yourself.

Creative, tenacious, scientific, artistic

10. Guilty pleasure?

Puns, definitely. *sorry*

11. Who or what makes or made you laugh until you’re weak?

I like silly humor, so comedians like Dmitri Martin, Sarah Silverman, Zack Galifianakis, and Jack Handey are tops in my book.

12. Who or what makes you so angry you could scream?

Hypocrites, or those that aren't nice to people that can't help themselves.

13. Planning to travel to next?

Thinking of trying to get my mom to go with to Northern Italy this September since dad hasn't been around for her since December. She doesn't want to go snowboarding though.

14.Best thing you ate or drank lately?

Pecan bar from Corner Bakery

15.When did you last get tipsy?

Definitely this past weekend, on wine, ugh.

16. Favorite ever film?

Raiders of the Lost Ark. When I was a 13, with a group of my friends, we made a lower budget version of this one actually. *Way lower budget* but still funny and surprisingly good now.

17. Care to share some wisdom?

It's an old notion, but be true to yourself always, and everything else usually falls into place.
And, don't hit when the dealer is showing a six.

18. If you could change one thing in your life what would it be?

I want to live in a place with more history than Texas, like Italy for example.

19. What are your blog turn-ons and turn-offs?

I like blogs/bloggers that share something of their humanity, creativity, or humor.

Sure, everyone has an occasional weak post, but I don't like blogs that don't invite comment participation or draw the readers in.

20. Favorite website?

escapeartist.com

21. What is your least favorite alcoholic beverage?

Zima, definitely. And I've tried almost all of them.

...And here we have a questiony thing graciously bestowed from Zepo Lopez (and grand-bestowed from Girl Interrupted). (see how I hid this embarassing one way down here?)

*Queen of All Things Awe-summm!*

It is supposed to be a quesionnaire for a girl, so don't go getting any strange ideas about me now.

Seven things that I think make me Awesummm:

Awesome 1) I always try to see things from another person's point of view, unless they are trying to kill me, at which point, all bets are off.

Awesome 2) I know lots of things, but I can always learn something from anyone. What do you know?

Awesome 3) I have a sense of humor, because without that, what's the point?

Awesome 4) I can lift 3 sets of twelve x 160 lbs (70kg) on the curl bench. So I can easily carry around heavy $hit, just like the Queen of England I hear. I'll bet she has a good uppercut too.

Awesome 5) I try to make at least one positive difference for someone every day.

Awesome 6) You all probably already know about my art and music stuff, what are you still doing reading this post? Go there...

Awesome 7) I'm available for parties (will not impersonate the Queen though).

*some fun included.
