Another Day, Another Meme
I'm bored and I don't have anything I feel like blogging about. So another meme for you all. This one from Hed who got it from someone else who probably got it from someone else etc. back to suspect zero.
In the extended entry. This one is pretty long but not as long as the one I posted a couple of days ago.
1. FIRST NAME: Troy
2. WERE YOU NAMED AFTER ANYONE: Troy Donahue. A bad B-movie teen hearthrob from the 60's.
3. DO YOU WISH ON STARS? I have before. Nothing every came of it.
4. WHICH FINGER IS YOUR FAVORITE: My index finger. It's good for pointing, picking, sticking into things etc. etc.
5. WHEN DID YOU LAST CRY: Hmmm. Not too long ago and that is all I'm telling.
6. DO YOU LIKE YOUR HANDWRITING: It can be neat if I try. Whenever I write letters it tends to start off neat but then deteriorate as I get tired.
7. WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE LUNCH MEAT: Summer sausage. Mmm. Summer + Sausage = goodness galore.
8. ANY BAD HABITS: I'm a nail biter. I'm not proud of it but I can't help it.
9. WHAT IS THE MOST EMBARRASSING CD ON YOUR SHELF? Hmm. Tough one. I don't mind listening to the Barenaked Ladies but they don't really fit in with the rest of the mix.
10. IF YOU WERE ANOTHER PERSON, WOULD YOU BE FRIENDS WITH YOU: Probably - though since I'm not much of a social butterfly I probably wouldn't get to know myself very well.
11. ARE YOU A DAREDEVIL: Not really. Sometimes I wish I was but then I remember I'd rather be alive :)
12. HAVE YOU EVER BEEN TOLD A SECRET YOU SWORE NOT TO TELL: Plenty of times and I never told anyone until that person told people. I'm good at secret keeping. I even impose secrets on myself when someone tells me something that they probably wouldn't want spread around.
13. DO LOOKS MATTER: Yes and no. The whole package is what I look at. Especially the personality of the person. Though I also like when someone can look good, even if they don't think they can.
14. HOW DO YOU RELEASE ANGER? Punching my pillow or bed. Sometimes I hit other inanimate objects. I never hit living things.
15. WHERE IS YOUR SECOND HOME? My parents place, though some of the time it still feels like my first home.
16. DO YOU TRUST OTHERS EASILY? Yes and no. I tend to start off with the belief that all people are good, though I am also apprehensive when meeting someone new. Just part of my introverted personality.
17. WHAT WAS YOUR FAVORITE TOY AS A CHILD? I don't know if I had a favorite. We had lots and lots of toys. I guess I was kind of spoiled (though most of the toys came from garage sales and the like).
18. WHAT CLASS IN SCHOOL DID YOU THINK WAS TOTALLY USELESS? I'd say French if it wasn't my countries official second language. Though for me it would have been French.
19. DO YOU HAVE A JOURNAL? I use to keep an offline journal for a while (starting in 1998). I still use it occasionally when I can't post my feelings and thoughts on this blog. It's full of angst like ramblings. This online blog is my substitute plus Firda is my living journal since we talk almost every week night and we chat about everything and anything.
20. DO YOU USE SARCASM? I do but only for comic effect.
21. WHAT DO YOU LOOK FOR IN A GUY/GIRL? Definitely someone who laughs at my stupid jokes. Someone who can take a joke. Someone who I can be friends with. Someone who I feel comfortable with. Amongst many other things.
22. WHAT ARE YOUR NICKNAMES? Forest Pirate, T-Royus Rex, T.D.
23. WOULD YOU BUNGEE JUMP? I probably would if I didn't have to pay for it. Though I'd probably throw up (like Hed).
24. DO YOU UNTIE YOUR SHOES WHEN YOU TAKE THEM OFF? If I can get them off and on without untying them then I do.
25. DO YOU THINK THAT YOU ARE STRONG? Physically, not so much. Mentally, if I try I can be. Emotionally, I can be if I need to be.
26. WHAT ’S YOUR FAVORITE ICE CREAM FLAVOR? I don't have a favorite. I like anything with chocolate.
27. SHOE SIZE? I can fit into 9, I usually wear 9 1/2.
28. WHAT ARE YOUR FAVORITE COLORS? I like blue and green. I know they aren't exotic colours like "mocha" or "heliotrope".
29. HOW MANY WISDOM TEETH DO YOU HAVE? I still have them all. No problems. The dentist has never told me to get them out. I'm happy.
30. WHO DO YOU MISS MOST RIGHT NOW? Firda. Though she will be back in Canada soon.
31. WHAT ARE YOU LISTENING TO RIGHT NOW? One of my co-workers on the telephone with another co-worker. Otherwise on the Winamp player I have "Silver Clouds & Silver Linings" by Sixtoo. If you want to check the track out go here and it's the 16th track. It might not be everyones cup of tea though. Be warned.
32. LAST THING YOU ATE? A Gyro pita for lunch.
33. LAST PERSON YOU TALKED TO ON THE PHONE: One of my co-workers who is out of the office today.
34. THE FIRST THING YOU NOTICE ABOUT THE OPPOSITE SEX: I don't know. For different people it's different things. Though a lot of the time it's the butt :)
35. HOW ARE YOU TODAY? Pretty good. I'm going to a book sale tomorrow so I should be much better by then :)
36. FAVORITE DRINK? Strawberry and banana milkshake.
37. FAVORITE SPORTS: Don't really have a favorite. Soccer? Maybe?
38. HAIR COLOUR? Dirty blonde. Browner in the winter, blonder in the summer (depending on the amount of sun I get).
39. EYE COLOUR? Blue and/or greenish blue. I believe the colour changes.
40. DO YOU WEAR CONTACTS? Nope. I have glasses but I only wear them when watching TV or movies and/or playing video games. I don't really need them. They just help.
41. SIBLINGS? One brother. Four years younger.
42. FAVORITE MONTH? They are all great. Though I enjoy the fall months better than most of the other months.
43. FAVORITE FOOD? Right now I'm on a Thai/Vietnamese kick. Though I also love the food that Firda cooked for me (unless it was too hot for me to eat).
44. LAST MOVIE YOU WATCHED? The Forgotten. Just like the title it is easily forgotten. Good concept. Poor ending.
45. FAVORITE DAY OF THE YEAR? No single day is better than the rest.
46. SCARY MOVIES OR HAPPY ENDINGS? Happy endings - though there has to be a little bit of sadness in it. I thought the ending of Big Fish, even though sad was also a happy ending.
47. SUMMER OR WINTER? If I must choose between the two I will choose Sinter or Wummer!
48. HUGS OR KISSES? Hugs for friends (unless they are friends with privileges) :) and kisses for family and girlfriends.
49. RELATIONSHIPS OR ONE NIGHT STANDS? Relationships. Since as you can see from the other meme I've never had a one night stand (though I've never had much of a relationship either).
50. WHAT’S ON YOUR MOUSE PAD? At home it's grey. At work it's nothing.
51. FAVORITE BOARD GAME? Trivial Pursuit. We played it last weekend. I was on the losing team but it was still a great game.
52. WHAT DID YOU WATCH ON TV LAST NIGHT? Flipping back and forth between a CSI rerun and the US presidental debate. I wasn't really watching it though. I was chatting on the computer.
53. FAVORITE SMELLS? Too many to list.
54. WHAT IS THE FIRST THING YOU THINK OF WHEN YOU WAKE UP? How many days until the weekend?!?
Daily Crawl
It looks like I bjorned (my new favorite word for saying screwed up) my linked side bar. I tried taking off two blogs and changing the address for one. Magically one blog that had dropped off the list for a long long time reappeared and the one I changed the address for disappear (don't worry Hed, I'll get it back), plus there are two empty lines. I think I should just go back to the good old fashion, non-daily crawl, non-blogroll side bar. Or maybe my dear Firda can fix it for me :) (hint, hint)
UPDATE: Apparently things have fixed themselves except that the blog which reappeared has disappeared once again. Damn you eh Steve!!!
