And a one, and a two, and a...what?
I hate not being able to go online.
There, I've said it. Hate it. Booo to no internet.
Now that's over with...
Had me a lovely time these past few days reading an amazing book recommended to me by the no less amazing Arborealis of the SQ continuum. ::huggles Arborealis:: That boy is way too much fun to talk to.
Anna, take careful notes. You'll want to read this. I haven't finished it yet, but I love it, love it, love it - called "At Swim, Two Boys" by Jamie O'Neill.
Are you interested in Ireland?
Yeah!
Are you interested in gay men?
Yeah!
Are you interested in gay men in Ireland?
Hell yeah!
Read it. Now.
Onwards and upwards...
Yesterday my boss told me that he thinks I'm going nuts. I am. Make no mistake about it. I'm absolutely going insane. This whole study abroad thing? If I make it to that room at Uni of Sussex in one piece (and that piece will actually be me and not a mindless Zombie) it'll be a miracle.
Sister's wedding is this Sunday. I'm still supposed to buy shoes. Argh. Ewwww, shopping...ewwwww, MALLS. Ick, ick, ick.
And, just for posterity's sake, I HATE LONG ISLAND.
And now,
VITAL STATS
+Name:+
Yelizaveta Yakovlevna Dimant. Would you like my medical records as well? And now, say it three times in a row, really, really fast...
+Birthday:+
June 9th. 6/9/82. That's a cool number, if only because the first two divide into three.
+Sex:+
Sometimes. Kidding. I'm a girl.
+Location:+
Lawngisland. The bane of America.
+Hair:+
Brown with a fading red...
+Eyes:+
Hazel. Sometimes green, sometimes blue, sometimes grey. You pick.
+Height:+
I'm a shortie. 5'1.
+Weight and/or Build:+
I'm average, I'd say. 112 lbs. A few days ago I was told that I'm too thin, but he's on crack, I'm convinced.
+Siblings:+
Sasha, the one getting married this Sunday, silly girl... She's 26.
+Pets:+
Computer.
+Religion:+
Agnostic. When I was ten, I came up to my mother while she was cooking and said: "Mommy, can I believe in God?" "Go for it," answered my mother as she cut up another onion for the soup. I have since changed my mind because suddenly I realized that I didn't know what exactly I was believing in. But I was raised atheist.
RANDOM QUESTIONS
+What do you wear as pajamas?+
Tanktop and man's pajama bottoms, because they're more comfy. Sometimes, just a t-shirt.
+How many girls have you kissed?+
One, but, unfortunately, it was just a joke. Give me time.
+How many boys have you kissed?+
Err, lemme see... seven? I think that's right...
+Have you ever kicked someone in the nuts?+
Ummm, I feel bad but...yes. *runs away*
+What other countries have you visited?+
Well, I've lived in Russia...does that count? Besides that, Canada.
+What do you think of virginity? And are you a virgin yourself?+
Virginity is something that each should decide for her/himself what s/he should do with. I'm not. But I don't consider that to be any more strange or good than being one. To each his own. Sex is fun. I like it. I like being touched.
+How far have you ever gone with a boy or girl?+
With a boy - read above. With a girl, just a quick kiss, but, like I said - give it time.
+Do you swear a lot?+
I've been called a potty-mouth by Carrie. Seeing as how it had come from her, yes. I swear all the fucking time.
+Have you ever experimented with homosexuality?+
For a long time, that was a no-no, because I was scared of taboos. That's changed. So, am planning on it.
+Have you ever tried to kill yourself?+
No, because no matter how much life sucks, there is always hope in the back of my mind that it will get better. I'm a pessimistic optimist.
+Have you ever been in love?+
Not that I know of...though I thought I was. I very well may be, more on that later.
+What colour is your toothbrush?+
White and purple.
+Do you know how to drive? If so, manual or automatic?+
I drive, and I love every minute of it, especially when it's just me in the car with loud music blaring. It's automatic.
+Have you ever held a gun?+
No and never ever want to. Out of all the inanimate objects, guns scare me the most.
+How many languages do you speak?+
Two and a half. Russian, English, and some French.
+Name one person who bugs the hell out of you.+
My roommate James. Thank God we're moving this weekend. He's a hypocrite and fake asshole, whose entire vocabulary consists of cliches that he picked up in movies. That, and he thinks calling me "bitch" all the time is funny. It isn't. Shut the hell up.
+What's your biggest pet peeve?+
Ignorance.
+Are you vegetarian?+
Well, I was for a year and a half, much to the agitation of my Russian mother, but then I almost became diabetic and decided to fuck it. Mmmmmmm, meat...steak...yummmm...
+Do you diet?+
Not really, but I am broke, so I rarely eat.
+What's the most uncomfortable situation you've ever been in?+
Oh, geez... I don't even remember. Not even if I try really really hard because my brain doesn't respond to that. I'm blanking.
+Are you a sexy bitch?+
I can be if I really want to.
+Name a food you hate that everyone else seems to love.+
Beans. "How can you hate beans, what is WRONG with you?!" "I CAN'T STAND THEM, LEAVE ME ALONE!!!"
+Given the opportunity to have a white-hot one-night stand with a celebrity, who would it be?+
I would say Alan Rickman, but I'd feel bad (hands the sexy man over to Sekhmet's capable hands) - so, it has to be...Ewan McGregor pops to mind. Mmmm, yeah...that sounds good.
SHOCKING REVELATIONS
+Tell us five things most people don't know about you.+
1) I look innocent to those who first see me, but I'm really not. At all.
2) Most of my real life friends don't know I'm obsessed with gay men - or that I write slash. It would be worth it to tell them just to see the faces.
3) The closest I have come to being in love is with Tali and she will never know.
4) Can't fake what you've never had.
5) People that I talk to online sometimes know more about me than the people in my real life.
+Tell us five things that you'd never tell your parents.+
1) Oh, that's easy - this. Slash. They would just...not get it. At all.
2) I'm bisexual. It would cause too many problems that I don't want to deal with.
3) That I've watched gay porn.
4) That they are the ones who, albeit inadvertently, have instilled a few problems that I will have to eventually go to therapy for.
5) I draw naked men - together - in bed. And I like it.
+What are your three wishes?+
1) That I had enough money to be able to just Not Worry About It.
2) That I could make myself a better writer.
3) That I had never stopped singing seriously. I will still take it up again, though. I will.
There, I've said it. Hate it. Booo to no internet.

And when asked what new and interesting books I've read over the summer, I'll put all the blame on you ;)
Good luck with shoe shopping. And I'll see your Ick and raise you an Ugh. No is fun.

I found the shoes. Went up to pay. The card was declined. My check hasn't cleared yet...*SIGH* They're saving them till tomorow, but...what a friggin' pain in the ass!..
Re:
Which made the whole shopping experience that much more pleasant, yes? So sorry hun :( Nyeh.

::sighs:: Oh, I knew that you were a true friend, but to make a sacrifice like that, well...... :-) Just know that I'd love you forever!
Hmmmm, wonder if I could make him enjoy himself so much that the 'white-hot one-night stand' would turn into a white-hot life-long affair of epic proportions? Worth a try, wouldn't you say?!?
