1. [livejournal.com profile] enemy_anime tagged me.
2. List 5 random/strange/weird things about you. <- it would be harder to list five non-weird things.
3. Refuse to tag others, on principle of terminal laziness.

1. This year (well, starting after last year's Atlantis season break) marks the first time *ever* that I have followed a TV show as it airs, rather than in reruns. And I had to start by trying to follow seven different shows (nine if you count Daily Show and Colbert). And I suck at it, as can be made apparent by the fact that this'll be the third time in a row that I've forgotten that some of my shows are on tonight.

2. I walk on tip-toes, when I'm not wearing shoes with high ankles. I have ever since I'm a kid. It feels much more natural that that awkward flat-foot gait, even though admittedely it looks kind of funny. When I was little I used to be mildly worried about the verse we said in church that talked about "walking in the way of the Lord".

3. I listen to country music radio. Like, a lot. Granted, I also listen to Spike Jones and Elvis Costello and MIA and Tinsmith and anybody who does Simon and Garfunkel covers, among other things, but even so. Plus I've been known to belt out "Redneck Woman" in public places.

4. I can't go to sleep if my feet are cold. I've been known to absentmindedly chew on my own shoulder and give myself a hickey. There's nothing I enjoy so much as spending an evening reading my own old fic - and as I have 875 kB of it on this computer now, I actually have enough to do that with. I'm seriously considering trying to vid Firefly:Serenity to Spring and Fall. Somebody ought to talk me out of it.

5. When I first heard people talking about how you were definitely a geek if you had your own set of multi-sided dice, I agreed. Because I though multi-sided dice were for doing probability experiments. My parents were math teachers; that's what we used ours for! I think I even tried to calculate pi (or possibly e) with them once, though darned if I can remember how.


I seem to have signed up for the feedback challenge, which means I ought to be feedbacking every fic I read, for the next week. O dear.
