Stolen from the Peanut Queen because I am unable to think of anything remotely decent to write about, I figured I'd just play along like all the other kids...
1. Accent - Well, you heard me on my audio post, so I think that says it all. Not much of an accent to speak of but I tend to pick up a slight bit of wherever I am living at the time. (Ohio, Pennsylvania, etc.)
2. Booze of choice - FREE...lol. Kidding. Actually, I don't drink much anymore but I am a girl that likes beer and never turns away a shot of Blackhaus. Which is usually followed by me mumbling 'feel the burn'.
3. Chore I hate - I lack the housework gene, but for some reason, I really have a distaste for dusting. I prefer to just move as opposed to dust. My theory; it'll fall off during the move.
4. Dog or cat - Keeettoooons! (That is LiVEwiRe-speak for 'cats'.)
5. Essential electronics- Radio/CD player, computer, vibrator (HA! Made you look...;) [I left this one mainly unaltered from the PQ's because I simply didn't see a need to change it!]
6. Favorite perfume/cologne - For me Design or Escada. I recall Hugo Boss for men being pretty spectacular, but it's been quite a while since I've had the advantage of having a man around to 'smell test'.
7. Gold or silver - Gold I suppose. What kind of pirate goes for silver? Really?! (Lucy McGoldNugget does maintain the high standard of practice required by the official Pirate Code Book.)
8. Hometown - Tiny place, so I'll go to the next large town and call it Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.
9. Insomnia - Comes and goes. Worse with mania, duh. Never have been able to sleep through the night, though; sometimes I wake up restless and can't get back to sleep, sometimes I just have to pee too damn much and waaay too often.
10. Job title - Lead Pharmacy Technician and your basic jackass.
.
11. Kids - Sometimes I think my biological clock is an LED. Then, like yesterday I see a teeny 10 day old baby and it all but makes my uterus ache. Either way, I can't do it myself.... ahem.
12. Living arrangements - I live in a cute apartment in a nicely renovated old house. Unfortunately it's in the hood and I can't afford heat. Meh.
13. Most admired trait - Trait I admire or trait I have? In others, honesty and sincerity. In me, I'd like to say speaking my mind but I don't think some people see it that way; they probably refer to it as the 'shut the fuck up' trait. So, instead of that, I'll say... well, I don't know what the word is, but when you have me, you really have me. I'd do anything for you. As long as you don't fuck it up. =)
14. Number of sexual partners - Let's just pretend this question never existed, k? I can only imagine the comments I'd get. Besides, I can't count that high...kidding!
15. Overnight hospital stays - When I was four. Typical tonsillectomy and had tubes in my ears at the time - it was all the rage.
16. Phobia - Things that resemble humans - clowns, ventriloquist dummies, mannequins, dolls, leprechauns, you name it. And spiders. And odd fabrics. And drowning. And finding something on the side of the road partially alive in a plastic bag. Seriously, that one is huge.
17. Quote - Depends on the day, but it usually involves me hissing out a curse with the word 'fuck' in it. Oh! But in a movie... think back to City Slickers... Billy Crystal (still unsure of Curly) asks Jack Palance if he's killed anyone yet today. Curly just smiles and says...'Days not over yet.' That line is soooo me.
18. Religion - Not very fond of it. Either way, I'm sure I'm going to hell; I got my confirmation letter in the mail yesterday.
19. Siblings - Yeah, talk about a can of worms. Until I was about 25 or so, I thought I was an only child. Then I learned that I have a half sister. About two years later I learned I had a half brother and he has two kids, so does that make them a half niece and half nephew? Yeah, sticky situation at best. I still consider myself an only child.
20. Time I wake up - Around noon. Give me a break... I go to bed around 4 and am up peeing half the night!
21. Unusual talent or skill - Sometimes I have a way of getting information out of people that others cannot. And no, it does not involve force. And I have common sense - that's unusual, right?
22. Vegetable I refuse to eat - I like most veggies. I draw the line at cooked spinach and stewed tomatoes, although the raw version is fine with me.
23. Worst habit - I smoke, swear excessively, and make my own life a living roller coaster ride. A sort of self-sabotage I suppose in that respect.
24. X-rays - I'm developing a subtle glow at night...
25. Yummy foods I make - My salsa kicks ass! And I never had a recipe, just put in what sounded good to me and everyone devours it!
26. Zodiac sign - Cancer. I'm a crab. Shocking, isn't it? ;)
Oh gee, look at the time... I must be off to work. Certainly you all have tears of sadness because this cannot continue. Yeah, or something like that... Ok my little bloglings, run along... shoo! Shoo! =)

Dusting... Ew.
You can't afford heat?
Beelze - It IS a trick question, and I wasn't about to get roped into answering it in any way. And I think it's always been an LED; a dim one at that. =)
Anne - Well, let's put it this way. I can afford enough to not freeze to death. I'd normally keep it on 68F(20C). I've been keeping it on 60F(15.5C) when I'm gone and 63F(17.2) while I'm here. Even that low temp has given me a monthly bill of $200(165EUR); hence, raising it to what I would like it to be would at least double it. I guess I can afford heat, just not enough to keep me warm!
hehe, funny :)
I love that quote too. My other favourite one is from St Elmo's Fire: "It's not a party until something's broken". Dunno why - I don't break stuff often and I get really annoyed when other people break my stuff.
Um, sorry, tangent...
So where exactly does one get a phobia about finding something on the side of the road partially alive in a plastic bag?
No. 18: Lol you will make hell kick ass!
Terri - I can imagine YOU making Curly's comment...lol. And St. Elmo's fire... now I'm going to have to go watch it! The phobia about the bags came from watching the news too much... reports of idiots putting live animals and babies, etc in bags at the side of the road to either suffocate or be found. For some reason it stuck; and knowing my luck. Oddly, one day I did find a duck in a bag, but it was dead. That also bought me 6 more months on the therapists couch!
Marco - Thanks! {takes a bow} hey, if you're ever in the neighborhood... =)
Funny how often 'common sense' isn't common at all.
Grew up around Pittsburgh? I was over in Johnstown. Occassionally treading floodwater, of course.
I love your dusting philosophy! You are too cute.
Kyknoord - Isn't that the truth; that's why I put it in that category. Sad in a way.
Jason - Oh, so that was you with the little yellow rubber ducky water wings?! ;)
Jay - Feel free to take on my dusting philosophy anytime! Or did you do that when you moved?
Hmmm... what's with the fear of clowns? I know some people who have the same thing. What's wrong with painted faces? :-/
Banzai - It's not the painted faces, it's that trick flower in the lapel that squirts water at me! kidding! Just too many scary clown movies/shows as a kid! =)
