8735 - Thursday's end

[scottobear]

Highlight of the day was ending it with a picnic in the loft with bhk - cheese, crackers, seltzer and vegetarian pepperoni while watching stuff on the tivo was the perfect end to the evening.
(Ugly Betty, The Office, My Name is Earl)

I love it in the loft... it's sort of a little tree house that we can run to with the kitties and just curl up in a bubble of extra comfort.

An incomplete list of Interests added or revitalized since I've moved north -

• wildlife observation / birding
• fly fishing (at least the casting side of it)
• music of all stripes
• seltzer water (flavored, sometimes)
• Getting together with family
• School events
• Neighborhood Committees (especially for emergency preparedness and regional wifi)

interview meme

via _chandra

1. How many days have you been married? 106! It's gone by like a blur, too.

2. Do you like dogs and would Newt allow you to ever have one? I do like dogs, and I'd wager Newt wouldn't mind one too much after a little adjustment period. However, dogs are a lot more responsibility than cats... walking, more regular bathing, etc... I think that I'd prefer to visit a puppy more than have one.

3. If a movie of your life were made, who would play you? Heck if I know. I've been through a lot of physical and behavioral changes over the years. Someone who can do the "giant guy" thing without being too ridiculous. John Goodman, maybe?

4. What are your top three favorite songs at the moment?

1. This Will be our year - The Zombies
2. I'm Alive - ELO
3. Powerhouse - Carl Stalling

5. What do you wish you had more time to do? Everything! I've been enjoying virtually every minute!

via eryx_uk

1. If you were to gain super powers, would you honestly be a hero or a villain? I think I'd be a hero, but I'd probably use my abilities for personal gain here and there. (or at least laughs) I like to help people and do what's right, for the most part.

2. Who would star as you in a movie of your life? Dang it... I just got this question - see #3 from chandra

3. Zombie apocalypse or return of the Great Old Ones? Zombie apocalypse, please... I'd like a war that can be won!

4. If you wrote the autobiography of your life, what would you call the book? I'm unsure... "Immaculate Misconception" maybe? "Don't Sweat the Petty Things, and Don't Pet the Sweaty Things?"

I'd probably swipe a line from Bill Hicks... "It's all just a ride"

5. If you were a character from a live-action TV show, who would you be? Not sure.. maybe a bit of Jim Halpert from The Office (except that I moved to Maryland to be with the one I love - no triangles or questions there.)

IF you like, leave a comment saying "interview me," and I'll ask you five questions, the answers to which you will post on YOUR livejournal.

RPG class quiz

scottobear, you're now logged in!

Below you'll find your test result. After, continue on to your home screen to discover what we're about.

continue to OkCupid homescreen >

Spellsword 81% Combativeness, 33% Sneakiness, 76% Intellect, 27% Spirituality

Aggressive, but with the brains to back it up: You are a Spellsword! Score! You have a prestige class. A prestige class can only be taken after you’ve fulfilled certain requirements. This may mean that you're an exceptionally talented person, but it probably doesn't. Spellswords combine arcane might with combat know-how. They're much tougher than mages, like to wear armor, and can cast spells through their weapons. They're very, very, good at doing lots of damage to a single target very quickly, and while not quite as tough as most fighters, are still pretty hard to kill. You're both smart and aggressive, which means that you're probably pretty dangerous when pissed off. You also tend to be somewhat straightforward, which is nice, and don’t have much use for spirituality or mysticism.

My test tracked 4 variables How you compared to other people your age and gender: You scored higher than 90% on Combativeness You scored higher than 45% on Sneakiness You scored higher than 60% on Intellect You scored higher than 25% on Spirituality

1. Which of your many fandoms is your fave, and why?
Hmm... tough pick. I'd have to say I have two favs. The first one is Star Trek. Its something I've grown up with. On Sundays after church, my dad and I would watch Star Trek together. We'd make fun of the silly costumes, I'd ask him questions about space, you know... laughs. It was more than just watching a show. It was time to spend with my dad.
The second one is D&D. Again, its more than just a table top game. I play with my best friend, James, and my boyfriend, Freddy, among other very wonderful people. Also, its a game that my very good Joe (god rest his soul) helped to teach me, so I hold it quite dear to me.

2. If you could live anywhere in the world, where would it be?
Oh, I totally go back to England! I loved living there! SO much history, lush land, beautiful architechure, great food, etc.

3. Who do you look up to the most?
There are a lot of people I look up to. Its difficult to say who I look up to the most. But I would say one person stands out quite a bit when I think of how I conduct my life. Joe. My darling Joe. He taught me things more people ought to expell. Patience, understanding, peace, unconditional friendship, and common morality. There is so much I'd say about why I look up to Joe, but I want to keep this to under 30 pages. :)

4. What's that behind you? Where'd you get it? Well, I'm not at home, so it ain't mine.

5. When will your next dream come true... and which one?
Not sure... my next dream (other than winning the lottery or something similar) is to get married and finally have love, unconditional and supportive love. Yeah, yeah... I'm a sap, but I really want to be able to find that special someone who will stick around when I need him (or her... whatever happens, happens).
