important questions...
why is it that when I was a kid, I looked to all of my older relatives, and my parents, and I thought 'wow, they're adults... I can't wait to be one!' But now that I am the same age as my parents were when I was wee, and most of my friends are in their 30's- I still look to my parents, and to my small handful of older friends and think 'wow, they're really adults! And I can't wait for everyone around me to be one!'

why. why why why, dammit! why?
Will I forever feel older than my peers?


Why is it that Emeril only kicks it up one notch at a time. I asked someone this already, and received no response. I'm surprised he hasn't figured this one out. I mean, if people are cheering for him when he garnishes a plate of mashed potatoes with parsley, they'd be offering their firstborn if he were to just kick it up several notches at once... and say, garnish with a bird of paradise or something...

Why did Alton Brown just reference Lovecraft? that's pretty sweet.

Why do people think I'm intimidating? Am I too smart for my own good? Am I too intense? Do I have too many interests, too much curiosity???

Why... why why why, dammit! why?


and finally- why do I never tire of filling out

Body:
1. Do you sleep in your bra?
never.

2. Have you kissed any one on your top list?
top list? I don't have one of those... and I haven't kissed many people at all anyway.

3. Are you happy with your looks?
I'm happy with me. I should quit drinking beer and start doing yoga again instead- but aside from that, I'm relatively comfortable in my skin.

4. are u straight?
this is a stupid question, and I despise that people can't type three whole letters, and must instead use a single letter to represent a simple part of english vocabulary... but I'm going to answer anyway.
I'm mostly straight, but only because I learned early on that girls are usually crazier than boys- I still like them all though- I'm attracted to personalities, not looks, and not genders.

5.Are you a girly girl?
very, very rarely.

6. Who was the last guy you hugged?
Blair

7. Small or large purses?
purses? laptop bags, and other devices designed to carry books and electronics. no purses.

8. Are you short?
I'm shorter than all of the people who are taller than me.

9. What would you do if someone smacked your butt?
return the favor, on their face.

10. Do you care if your socks are dirty?
well, yeah- socks are a wear once then wash sort of thing, aren't they?

11. Have you ever been told your photogenic?
yes, but I didn't believe it.

12. Are you a brat?
I'm usually the one who caves- but on some things I refuse to back down- I guess that makes me a brat sometimes.

13. Do you dress up on Halloween?
sometimes.

14. Do u dress up on Christmas?
ack, there's that damn "u" again. I'm lucky to have a family full of hippies- none of us dress up on Christmas...

15. Where is the weirdest place you have slept?
in a closet, behind a box of star trek books and a stack of woodwind instruments (it's a long, somewhat depressing story that I'd rather not share here)

16. Has anyone touched/smacked your butt in the past 24 hours?
nope- what's with this fixation on butts?

17. Is there any type of rumor going around about you?
Usually... Oddly, I'm fairly certain that I know what at least one of them is about right now...

18. Do you shop at victoria's secret?
no

20. How many guys do you think will end up reading this just because it says girls survey?
did it say girl's survey? I didn't notice

I think Johnny Depp is peculiar, and positively fascinating... and, yeah, he's pretty good looking in a traditional sense...

As long as it's from before 1989- even more so if it's from before 1976...
