Nothing To See Here....

[sariagray]

Stolen from thebuttonontop.

1. Make a list of 5 things that you can see without getting up.
My Disney princess mug
A corkscrew
My giant Oscar Wilde compendium
Cigarettes
LAS fic, printed out, with lots and lots of red pencil marks

2. How do you style your hair?
I wash it. Then I towel-dry it for 2 seconds. Sometimes, if I'm feeling really fancy, I may actually attempt a part (which will somehow meander over in another direction by the time I get to work).

3. What are you wearing now?
Black flowy pants and a long-sleeve black shirt. More jewelry than an Empress.

4. What's the one thing you would like to change about your looks?
All of them? No, really. One thing? My body. Does that count?

5. What do you hear right now?
My fan and some orchestral music of some sort.

6. Who was the last person you hugged?
Uh. Maybe Jen's brother-in-law last weekend? No, wait, usakiwigirl.

7. What is/was for dinner?
Diet Coke, it seems.

8. What is your favourite beauty product/toiletry item?
Cristophe wavy hair shampoo/conditioner (whatever the Hell it was called). But 1) they no longer make it and 2) my hair is too short. So now I think it might be Aussie 3 Minute Miracle conditioner. 

9. Dog person or cat person?
I am a cat person, through and through.

10. If you had to change your name, what would you change it to?
My given name? Dorian Elizabeth.

11. What was the last thing that you bought?
"Ta-Dah" by The Scissor Sisters, I think. 

12. If you could afford to go anywhere in the world, where would you go?
Anywhere? A tour of Europe, unless I had to go to only one place. In which case it would be 16 34 Tite Street, Chelsea, London. And I would buy it and never leave.

13. Favourite band/musician?
Okay, seriously, it changes regularly. Top runners are Tori Amos, The Smiths, Rufus Wainwright, Silverchair, Tool, A Perfect Circle, and Blind Guardian.

14. Favourite book?
The Picture of Dorian Gray - Oscar Wilde; The Garden of Eden - Ernest Hemingway; A Clockwork Orange - Anthony Burgess; Tipping the Velvet - Sarah Waters; The Barker and Llewelyn Series - Will Thomas. (Side note: When I went to write "Tipping the Velvet," I automatically wrote "Tipping the Velvet Goldmine." Because that was a title of an essay I had written in high school on homosexuality in the media. I wonder where that's gotten to...).

15. Of the shows you watch, what is your favorite and what is your least favorite?
Honestly, my favorite is The Tudors. It HAS to be; the cinematography is brilliant, the score is fantastic, the acting is spot-on, and it deals with my favorite people ever. JRM does NOT hurt. Least favorite? I dunno. I just stop watching shows if I'm not interested.

17. Where did number 16 go?
He took off in the Tardis as the newest companion. 

18. How are you?
Let's not open up that discussion, hm? Suffice it to say that I am beginning a quarter-life crisis in which I doubt my abilities in most things.

19. What are you doing tomorrow?
Working. Flirting. Being as ridiculous as humanly possible at all times.

20. What are you looking forward to the most?
Retirement.

You met usakiwigirl too? We really need to get that wormhole in the drinks cabinet sorted so that we can go both ways.

Also, stealing this, because I am procrastinating like whoa... as usual

[sariagray.livejournal.com]

I did! And we really, really do. Although I suppose for now we can pretend that we've met via her? lol

And steal away - procrastination is my favorite event ever. ;)

Tipping the Velvet! <3 I think you're the first other person I've met who has read that. :D

*snuggles you~~~* ♥

[sariagray.livejournal.com]

I LOVE that book so much! SO MUCH! It...went around in my high school like gossip, I swear. And that's why the Emily/Alice bits in TW made me so very giggly.

Did you see the BBC mini-series!?

[analineblue.livejournal.com]

OMG there's a BBC miniseries??! *_* ....I will be downloading this presently. :D

[sariagray.livejournal.com]

There is! It came out around '05? I think? I know I had it in '05, anyway. If I remember correctly, it was very good!

I watched the first season of The Tudors during my stint in Hell, aka the Great Internet Exile. It was fun and JRM makes me proud to be Irish ;p

Another meme on my To-Do List...

[sariagray.livejournal.com]

JRM makes me proud to...have a pulse...and eyes...or something. *STARES* Teehee!

He is my favorite thing ever. Especially when I get to watch him make out with many boys.

*Dies again*

Nawww, I was the last person you hugged? That's so sweet - and yet, incredibly sad, because that was two weeks ago! Come on woman, you must have hugged somebody else at some point! You're a lovely lady, I know people aren't that afraid of you, LOL!

I like the idea of the drinks cabinet wormhole - can I surf it too?

Edit: I have got to finish reading the entire damn meme and the comments before I put in my two-cents worth! Where and when did JRM snog many boys? How can I get to see this? For he is delicious and I do so wish to watch this. *is depraved*

Oh yeah - and I like that you like Scissor Sisters, too!
