B - Band listening to right now: traffic and air conditioners
C - Crush: Damn, that's some nasty soda.
D - Delicate wash: People actually do that? Well, ok, I do have a few items, but I try not to have to wash them too oten
E - Easiest person to talk to: morlock
F - Favorite bands at the moment: been listening to Solas and Flogging Molly this week. On a kelly green kick, I guess.
G - Gummy worms or gummy bears?: Worms
H - Hometown: Brooklyn, NY. What! What!
I - Instruments: Violin (9 yrs), clarinet (3 yrs), piano (on and off most of my life)
J - Junior Girl Scouts: are really only good for kidnapping and ransoming for cases of Samoas.

O - One wish: If I tell, it won't come true.
P - Phobia[s]: Mold. Dead bugs.
Q - Quote:
"I'll ask you a riddle. What do you have more of the more you give it away?"
"Oh, love, I suppose."
"So if I care more about Naming than anything else, then maybe I have to give myself away, if it's the only way to show my love. All the way away. To X myself."
"If you do it - X yourself - does it last forever?"
"Nobody knows. Nobody will know until the end of time."
"Do I have that choice too?"
"I't's not a choice given to mortals, earthling."
--Madeleine L'Engle, A Wind in the Door
R - Reason to smile: Having a car scream past you blasting "Smells Like Nirvana" at top volume. Anyone that would crank Weird Al gets a bonus in my book.
S - Last song you heard: I have this horrid amalgam of Dido's "White Flag," Prince's "I would Die for you" and Solas' "Darkness Darkness" wound up all together in my head with a liberal splash of O-Zone's "Dragostea Din Tei" for flavor.
T - Time you woke up: 6:53 AM
U - Unknown fact about me: I'm sure if you read you can find out anything you want to know and a few things that will keep me out of public office.
V - Vegetable you hate: lima beans. Which I think are actually legumes. Whic
W - Worst habit(s): That I'll admit to? nail biting
X - X-rays you've had: Teeth. I've had my head cat scanned too.
Y - Yummy food: yes please
Z - Zodiac sign: Libra the Indecisive wonder of the world.
Some advice to give to my 16 year old self:
1) If you're going to lose your virginity, among other stupid ways to screw it up, leave yourself more than an hour and a half to do it in.
2) grow a set and fucking ask Wyeth out. For real. You'll regret it if you don't. Trust me.
3) Do your homework. It's not like you have the internet to distract you yet, just your own teenage bullshit to journal endlessly about.
4) Don't fight with your mother so much; you only get her for ten more years.
