tadiera and 80sfiend. 2 different surveys.
What is your occupation? Unloading a delivery truck. Also some various webstuff that I'm going to call "Consulting" because it sounds cooler, even though I don't actually consult or get consulted.
What color is your underwear? Blue right now
What are you listening to right now? As I type this, an old rerun of the Just for Laughs tournament which is currently playing Weird Al's Amish Paradise. But I'm not doing the survey all at once so later in the survey probably something else (and at the moment of posting, CNN).
What was the last thing you ate? Again, as of typing this, toast with pineapple cream cheese. (At time of posting, a slice of charity subway pizza)
Do you wish on stars? No, I am not convinced at the powers of
the stars to grant wishes (if any stars wish to demonstrate their
ability, however, I would be most grateful). However, I still wish to visit stars.
If you were a crayon, what color would you be? Gray
How is the weather right now? Too hot for the season.
How old are you today? N + 1 days, where N is my age yesterday, in days.
Favorite soda? Ginger Beer
Favorite sport to watch? ... watch? Sports? You jest.
Have you ever dyed your hair? No, but my hair dyed of natural
causes when I was young (I was born blonde, turned dark).
Do you wear contacts or glasses? No, but I probably should
wear both.
Pets? None of my own, although the apartment does have a black
cat named Gabriel, belonging to my roommates.
Favorite month? I dunno. March, maybe?
Favorite food? I don't have a single favorite. But Gyros, Tacos, and Potato Chips are all up there.
What was the last movie you watched? In the Theatre, Serenity. And it's a damn good movie and you should all go to see it 10 times, and take 10 friends each time.
Favorite day of the year? Ehhh, I don't really know that I have one. I'll just say Canadian Thanksgiving, cause you get the big family meal and get together and no obligation or worries re: presents like Xmas. It would be Greek Easter, but we really haven't done anything for that in the last few years. :P
What do you do to vent anger? I don't really know. I guess I just try to do something to get my mind off it, rather than actual venting.
Fall or spring? Either's pretty good.
Hugs or kisses? Neither happen enough to merit any thought on the matter.
Cherry or Blueberry? Blueberry.
Living arrangements? My heart pumps the blood, my lungs supply the oxygen, my stomach the fuel, and my brain keeps it all running. The arrangement seems to be working out pretty well - we tried one day having my lungs pump the blood, but that just did not work out like we expected it to.
Oh, wait, you mean where? Apartment, shared with my brother and his girlfriend. 2 bedroom, kitchen, hallway, bathroom, and 'book room', although really I spend almost all my time in my tiny little room with the door closed, except coming out to get food and go to the washroom.
What is on the floor of your closet? Milk crates full of books.
Who is the friend you have had the longest? Hmmm... if you mean the person on my friends list that I've known the longest,xet_ith, who I've known from way back in the days of BBSes. Remember Sithicus? If you're talking about actual friends, my brother probably. Yeah, he's family, but he's still a friend.
What did you do last night? Watched TV. Geeked.
Favorite smell? Food cooking.
What inspires you? Not a whole lot, at this point. Fantastical landscapes, characters, and situations.
What are you afraid of? Confronting people, or really, interacting with them in any way in person.
Plain, cheese or spicy hamburgers? Spicy I guess, because anything spicy is good.
Favorite car? I don't 'get' cars. The romanticizing of them, anyway. I don't own one, nor do I want one - so, I'd have to say any one that does the job with the least amount of worry or associated extra costs from mileage, etc.
Favorite dog breed? Poodle
Number of keys on your key ring? 5.
How many years at your current job? 4? Maybe 5?
Favorite day of the week? Thursday.
How many states have you lived in? None, I've never lived in the US.
How many places have you lived in? I don't know. Lessee.. I must have lived a bit in BC. Ottawa. Gypsumville. then to Toronto there was a semi-detached house, then another in Scarberia, then parents divorced and with my grandmother, then with my Dad during college, then here. If you count the summers I lived with my mom, add something like 3 more. Between 8 and 11.
Survey Meme #2:
1. When you look at yourself in the mirror, what's the first thing you look at?

I have no idea. Well, technically I'm not wearing any shoes at the moment. But the ones I wear? No idea. I don't look at such things. They're cheapy department store brands though I think.
10. Bright or Dark Room?
In my room it depends on the time of day, since I have a skylight. Generally I prefer dark to really bright, but I like it to be medium really - bright enough to read by but not so bright that it gives me a headache or makes things hot.

They're pretty cool. (it's [Bad username or unknown identity: 80sfiend).]12. Ever "spilled the beans"?

14. What did your last text message you received on your cell phone say?
It said 'How the hell are you receiving this, you don't have a cell phone', and it was from Reality. Oh, and it used leet speak so it said 'u' instead of 'you', but I don't like typing that.
15. Do you ever click on "Pop Ups" or Banners?
Generally not. I'm sure I have at one point or another though.

Don't do it, it's a trap!

Probably my grandmother.
18. Hmmmmm seems 18 is missing so I'll making something up What number are you thinking of?

None that I'm aware of. I don't even think I've had caffinated drinks in the last 3 days.
20. How many rolls of film do you need to get developed?
None. I don't take pictures.

Reality. One day I will conquer it!

The starship Serenity over a planet.
24. What was the last thing you said to someone?
Can't remember the exact words, but explaining that I might be called in to work in a few hours or tomorrow or maybe not at all.
25. If you had to choose between a million bucks or to be able to change a major regret?
I'd take the million because I've got too many regrets for undoing just one to make a big difference.
