Diane over at Good Mourning, Glory! tagged me for a meme. Thanks, Diane! I'm starting to get hooked on these meme things. : )
What is your current obsession?
I had this same question on my Stealing Sunday meme so I'd say the same thing...reading, tea, and the occult. But I'm going to add crafting and Diablo to that.
I went to three different craft stores today looking for my Mother's Day project and settled on a cross-stitch pattern. I always make my mom something for Mother's Day. I better get started on it tomorrow if I want it done by then! I might even post a pic of the finished product. Mind you, it won't be gothy or anything cuz' it's for my mom. We are complete opposites!
I'm sure you've heard of Diablo before but I'm referring to the game. It's the best game EVER. They're going to come out with Diablo 3 and I cannot wait. Yes, I'm a gamer nerd. This is the version I've been playing a lot of since I no longer have the 9-5. : )
I guess the question was "obsession" singular but I just can't limit that to one thing!
What is your weirdest obsession?
Gosh I have a lot that could be considered weird. I guess all the occult/paranormal stuff that I'm interested in would be "weirdest", although it's not to me, obviously.
What are you wearing today?
Well now that it's almost midnight, I'm in my jammies, which consist of purple pj bottoms with stars on them and a blue t-shirt. Doesn't exactly match. : )
When I was out and about today, I wore a black sweatshirt hoodie and dark blue jeans with black shoes. It was a bit chilly around here.
Why is today special?
Thinking of things that happened today that don't normally happen, I would say that today was special because my brother and his girlfriend had their first ultrasound of their first kid together. OMG I'm going to be an aunt. I'm really not a fan of children but I'm happy for them. : ) I was told that if it's a girl, they're naming it after me. What can I say? I took care of my brother A LOT when we were growing up.
What would you like to learn to do?
I would love to learn how to play the piano and how to sew. I can cross-stitch and do embroidery like a mother f***er (AKA I'm really good) but I've never "sewn".
What is the last thing you bought?
I had a craving for nachos so I bought sour cream, shredded cheese, an avocado, and organic chips. I already had the salsa so when I got home, I just had to whip up the homemade guac and lunch was served. Delish!
What are you listening to right now?
What's your favorite weather?
I'd have to go with a storm on a day/night when the weather is in the 70's.
What's your most challenging goal right now?
It's the goal I always have...to constantly better myself.
What do you think about the person who tagged you?
I think she's awesome! I sense that she has a beautiful soul and that's hard to come by.
What's your favorite guilty pleasure?
Again I'm going to have to go with my Sunday Stealing answer. Naughty food...which basically means anything creamy, cheesy or buttery.
Favorite vacation spot?
I don't have a favorite go-to spot but if there is a body of water, I'm so there.
What would you like to have in your hands right now?
A buyer's agreement saying that they want to buy my condo!
What would you like to get rid of?
Family issues! Some days I just want to get in the witness protection program and run away.
If you could go anywhere in the in the world for the next hour, where would you go?
This one was tough cuz' it's only an hour. I'd have to say Dracula's castle.
Which language would you like to learn?
latin
What super power would you like to possess?
I would choose immortality because I think it would be so neat to see how the world changes over time, to see what we create.
What's your favorite thing about the city you live in?
My favorite thing is being so close to Lake Michigan. Tulip Time starts this weekend and it's going to be a mad house! People come from all over. People that don't know how to drive on our Michigan turn arounds. That part I'm not such a fan of. If you're going to be in town, let me know...I'll show ya' around!
What's your favorite piece of clothing in your own closet?
My soft fuzzy black zip-up sweater.
What's your dream job?
To work on a police force.
If you had $150 now what would you do with it?
Probably nothing because I have to watch my pennies due to the "no job" situation. If I was working, then I'd use the money to buy things off of my wish list.
Do you admire anyone's style?
No one in particular but I admire goth/industrial fashions.
Describe your personal style?
Basically anything black or blue. I'm one giant bruise. I wear a lot of comfy slip-on shirts. Not really a fan of buttons.
Who's fashion show would you want tickets to?
I can't think of anyone in particular. If Gothic Beauty magazine put on a fashion show, I'd be interested in seeing that.
Who's closet would you want to raid?
Geesh there are a lot of clothing questions. I'd raid anyone's closet that had goth/rivethead clothes.
What are you most proud of?
My ability to overcome emotional pain.
If you could choose one person who has passed to have lunch with, who would it be and why?
My great-grandpa because I think he had a secret life.
Holy crap my night has gotten away from me! I've had something I wanted to post for a couple nights now but keep running out of time. Maybe tomorrow? For now, I have this:
You Scored as Lilith
You are a vampire, or at least if you were a doll. A word of advice, make sure there are no aspen trees in your backyard. (If there are, chop them down.) Aspen is the legendary wood used for stakes. I hope this advice helps you stay alive - wait - you can't die! You're immortal!
When it comes to big purchases (car, house, furniture, etc.), I tend to be impulsive but I can hesitate on a small purchase for a long time. Makes no sense, I know. I have a small wish list of things that I would like to buy someday. One of the things on that list is the Angel DVD set. Don't get me wrong, I like Buffy but I liked Angel much better. Maybe it's because of David Boreanaz? He is quite delicious.
So what was I saying? : ) Oh yeah, DVD set. So the original price for all five seasons was around $150. Not a huge investment but not small either so it went on the wish list. Lo and behold I found it recently for $100 plus free shipping and handling!! Plus it comes in a cool box where the DVD set I saw before just came in separate cases for each season. This was too good to pass up so as we speak, someone is getting my Angel box ready to ship to me. I can't wait!
