52 Self-Revelations
1. FIRST NAME? Most of you know it!
2. WERE YOU NAMED AFTER ANYONE? Well, I’ve always appreciated that it means “follower of Christ.” My middle name is the same as my mother’s.
3. WHEN DID YOU LAST CRY? Two nights ago. But then I got a lot of productive stuff done.
4. DO YOU LIKE YOUR HANDWRITING? Yes.
5. WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE LUNCHMEAT? It’s been a long time…I think turkey. Or maybe ham. Or well-cooked roast beef. Heck, just so long as it’s sliced thinly and has mustard on it…
6. KIDS? Someday, Lord Willing!
7. IF YOU WERE ANOTHER PERSON WOULD YOU BE FRIENDS WITH YOU? I would hope so!
8. DO YOU HAVE A JOURNAL? I have a diary on my computer, in which I write things too personal to include on my blog, which has replaced the paper journal I kept infrequently heretofore.
9. DO YOU USE SARCASM A LOT? Sometimes, but I’m not that good at it.
10. DO YOU STILL HAVE YOUR TONSILS? Yes. I'm rather fond of them.
11. WOULD YOU BUNGEE JUMP? Probably not, since I would be afraid I would hurt my back or neck—these sorts of things have happened to too many people I know!
12. WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE CEREAL? Cinnamon Toast Crunch. It’s like dessert.
13. DO YOU UNTIE YOUR SHOES WHEN YOU TAKE THEM OFF? No.
14. DO YOU THINK YOU ARE STRONG? Mentally, physically or intellectually?
15. WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE ICE CREAM? I love green-tinted mint chocolate chip. And cookies and cream. And caramel swirl. And coffee. In fact, I don’t scorn any ice cream flavor except peach (yuck!).
16. SHOE SIZE? 7 1/2.
17. RED OR PINK? In what context? I like both, plus all the other colors of the rainbow. My uchikake is flame red.
18. WHAT IS THE LEAST FAVORITE THING ABOUT YOURSELF? I am pretty sure I bore some people.
19. WHOM DO YOU MISS THE MOST? I don’t really miss people who are within phone/internet range--I don't feel separated from them--but I do miss a friend of twenty years from whom I drifted apart, and with whom I am no longer in contact.
20. DO YOU WANT EVERYONE TO SEND THIS BACK TO YOU? I'd love anyone who wants to do this to put it up and/or mention it in the comments.
21. WHAT COLOR PANTS AND SHOES YOU ARE WEARING? Blue jeans. Socks, no shoes.
22. LAST THING YOU ATE? Apple juice and a chocolate Powerbar—come to think of it, it’s almost 5 PM, and that’s all I’ve had all day! I got busy and forgot to eat.
23. WHAT ARE YOU LISTENING TO RIGHT NOW? The whirr of my computer fan and the tick-tack-tick of my fingers typing.

25. FAVORITE SMELL? Good food.

27. FIRST THING YOU NOTICE ABOUT PEOPLE? Kneecaps. J/K. Not to say that it wouldn’t be kneecaps on a given day—it depends, really, on the circumstances of the meeting. Sometimes I see a physical characteristic, other times it’s a behavioral one, or a voice.
28. DO YOU LIKE THE PERSON WHO SENT THIS TO YOU? I was forced to steal it from Kim of Upward Call and from Tulipgirl. I figured they were examples worth imitating!
