i heart procrastination....

A Top Ten List, inspired by Zimmerhouse! I'm procrastinating by doing this instead of reading this one article right now--I feel like I'm coming down with a cold, I haven't exercised all week, so my head is not clear. Maybe this purging of personal information will help.

Mommymatic, Ginapalooza, The Wendy Lady, Waves, Frets 'n Discs, Red Red Rine, Girls Run Wild: YOU'VE BEEN TAGGED for your own Top Ten.

10) Favorites
COLOR: blue
FOOD: steak, salad (but no pork or beef during Lent--really, I just do it for the priciple of the whole thing. The stick-to-it-ness of it all. Because I really love pork and beef...)
MONTH: April
SONG: depends on my mood
MOVIE: On The Waterfront, too many others to name.
SPORT: duh, nordic walking.
SEASON: Spring and Fall
DAY OF THE WEEK: Friday
ICE CREAM FLAVOR: chocolate
TIME OF DAY: 6 o'clock, either end of the day

9) Currents:
MOOD: Cluttered
CLOTHES: none
TASTE: coffee, V8 and a stuffy throat
TOENAIL COLOR: none at the moment
TIME: 11-ish
SURROUNDINGS: desk/living room
THOUGHTS: get my results and method sections drafts looked over before that meeting this afternoon; wait, I have NO idea what I am DOING here with this stuff.
WONDERINGS: What comes after Summer 2007?

8) First:
BEST FRIEND: Four years old, "Black Hair", my Japanese friend down the street. She called me "Yellow Hair". No, seriously, I really indexed her as "Black Hair" ("Can I go over to Black Hair's to play?"). It was a PC match made in heaven.
KISS: Troy Cowan (yes, his real name), by the garbage can in 4th grade before doing out to recess. Not that I remember or anything. He was ca-yoot and word was already out by the time I hit the kickball scene with the boys. How embarassing.
SCREEN NAME: lizinka
PET: Rosie the rabit.
PIERCING: ears
CRUSH: A couple boys in 5th grade. I don't really remember but with my record, probably at least one of them eventually did come out of the closet.
HOME LOCATION: Bellevue, WA

7 Lasts:
CIGARETTE: dinner party, last Saturday. It was really very satisfying. I'm not a regular smoker (gross) and can turn it off or on, which I am very thankful about. Terrible habit, WONDERFUL vice.
DRINK: See above
KISS: at a party that got out of hand
MOVIE SEEN AT THE MOVIE THEATER: Amazing Grace
PHONE CALL: my parents, who never answer the home phone.
CD PLAYED: Katka Koscova, "Este sa nepozname" (2005)
GIFT RECEIVED: yesterday morning, sunlight streaming in and birds chirping that I enjoyed for half an hour while lying naked in bed. That was a calming gift.

6:
HAVE YOU EVER DATED ONE OF YOUR BEST FRIENDS? Not per se, but we were very good friends. I don't get the question.
BEEN ARRESTED: never
BROKEN THE LAW: shhh...
SKINNY DIPPED: often
BEEN ON TV: yes, as a child reporter for "Kidsworld" on KOMO (Seattle ABC affilate) and on Slovak National Television a few years ago.
KISSED SOMEONE YOU DIDN'T KNOW: Yes. What, you HAVEN'T?

5:
THINGS YOU'VE EATEN TODAY: apple, V8, coffee, water, air (not feeling well so did not opt for my usual regular brekkie)
YOU'VE DONE TODAY: got up, ate, read emails, showered, watched the special features on "Marie Antionette" (Sophia Coppola, 2006), put an article in front of me, thought about work to do, am doing this list thing
YOU CAN'T LIVE WITHOUT: sunshine, music, coffee, montly massages
YOU CAN HEAR RIGHT NOW: classical music on this NPR station, sound of my typing, hum of a plane flying outside overhead
YOU DO WHEN YOU GET BORED: putz around with amazing abandon

4:
PLACES YOU'VE BEEN TODAY: my bedroom, my kitchen, my computer, my shower

3:
PEOPLE YOU CAN TELL ANYTHING TO: those few people I love to pieces because I can tell them anything

2 Choices:
a. BLACK OR WHITE : this is a weird question. I totally depends on the season.
b. HOT OR COLD: situation-dependent.

1. THING YOU WANT TO DO BEFORE YOU DIE:
Reproduce. But then hopefully not die soon afterwards...
