1. When you looked at yourself in the mirror today, what was the first thing you thought?
It'll grow again. I'll "get there". (I shaved my head again to get the blue hair dye completely out-- was fun, but its done. I want my light brown hair back.)
2. What were you doing at midnight last night?
Talking to a friend who is going through a personal matter with his girlfriend; trying to help him make sense of things.
3. What's a word that you say a lot?
"Understandable" or "Seriously?"
4. What is your current desktop picture?
A picture of my older sister (she passed away in January) and I as kids playing with my grandfather's recorder. I really miss her.
5. How old were you the first time you got drunk?
Around 12. My friends and I were told we could have ONE wine cooler each (New Year's Eve party where our parents and others were celebrating). JUST ONE. Uh huh. Jenny, the older of the twins, and I had wine coolers (plural), beer, and quite an assortment of the small bottles of liquor you get on flights. My dad said he'd have been really upset with me if he hadn't found me so amusing. I talked and talked and talked, and he noticed it got quiet, looked over, and I'd fallen asleep. I got the lecture the next day and was grounded for like a week (?) for disobeying the "one drink" rule.
6. Which Disney character do you like best?
LOL! Depends on my mood really-- that whole "twin" nature of the Gemini. I'd say either "Stitch" from "Lilo & Stitch" or "Beast" from "Beauty and the Beast".
7. Can you roll your tounge?
Yes. Yes, I can.
8. If you could only eat one food for the rest of your life, what would you choose?
Hmmmm... one food or one food group? I love sushi if we're talking an assortment, but if we're talking of one specific dish, I'd want Pad Thai.
9. What's your favorite song at the moment?
Michael Bublé - "Haven't Met You Yet"
10. Do you twirl your spaghetti or cut it?
How can you properly eat spaghetti and NOT twirl it?
And please, don't forget the ricotta cheese!
11. Favorite Alcoholic drink?
Margarita. Not frozen. On the rocks-- I'm not sure if it's because I'm Anemic or frustrated, but I like lots of ice. Salt the glass.
12. Any tattoos or piercings?
Eight tattoos. One earlobe is currently pierced and sports a blue ring to match my eyes. The other ear is pierced, but I don't keep anything in it. My tongue piercing closed years ago.
13. Do you do any kind of drugs?
I don't do recreational drugs. If it's not prescribed by a doctor or a common OTC medication to be used as directed for its intended purposes, it doesn't go in my body.
14. What would you change about yourself?
I wouldn't worry about everything as much as I do. I tend to dwell on things too much.
15. Something you envy about the opposite sex?
Being that I'm a non-op FtM, are we talking sex or gender? They ARE different, so I'm not sure what you're wanting from this question really. What do I envy about femmes, my opposite gender: how well they can read us-- yet still manage to puzzle and intrigue us.
What do I envy about cis-males: having a chest rather than breasts; being able to go shirtless and have it be a non-issue.
16. Would you ever take someone back if they cheated on you?
No. If a femme didn't appreciate me when she had me, when I was completely devoted and faithful to her, then she certainly wouldn't deserve me. I can forgive a great many things-- and have. But that's a "point of no return" for me.
17. What would you say about your last ex?
I hope she finds the love and happiness she deserves, that we all deserve.
18. Biggest turn off?
Arrogance. The whole "I'm a princess", "I'm a diva" mentality really just leaves me cold. To me, it screams, "I've got more issues than 'Entertainment Weekly', and I need LOADS of attention to feel validated and worthwhile!" I want a woman, not a "project".
19. Have you ever made a sex tape?
No, and I would never do that as I genuinely like people and wouldn't subject random people to me naked. It's difficult enough just to get past my own shyness and insecurity in sharing myself with a partner when it gets to that point in a relationship.
20. Worst thing you have ever done to someone?
I have a lot of faults; I've made a lot of mistakes. The WORST thing I've done, however, is to myself: put off phone calls, not prioritized visits, argued and bickered with my older sister over what amounted to petty stuff that prevented us from being even closer. I do my best by her sons, my nephews, but I've lost those opportunities with her. God only knows when I'll "see her again" to be able to tell her how sorry I am for that.
