cyan_blueSo the 100-things-about-me meme is going around, and I told myself I wasn't gonna do it. But I'm bored right now, so what the heck. I'm not promising 100, but we'll see how far we get....
1. My eyes change colors with my environment.
2. I learned how to fire-eat when I was 14.
3. I own a magenta hat, which is used to signal that the wearer desires solitude.
4. I am owned by a little grey cat.
5. I do beadwork.
6. I have visited more than half of the US states, but I've only lived in 3 of them.
7. I have driven across the country three times.
8. I get to set my own work hours, which is extremely important to me.
9. My pay ranges from $11.33/hour to $120/hour at various times of the week.
10. I have asthma.
11. I make lots of to-do lists, because I'd forget tons of stuff if I didn't.
12. I love playing Settlers of Catan.
13. And I love playing Scrabble, which is a family tradition.
14. My partner and I are really into Italian Sodas.
15. I'd be a vegan if it weren't for CHEESE! And mango lassi.
16. I haven't (intentionally) eaten meat since 1989.
17. I'm allergic to shellfish and kiwis.
18. And cats. But I've never let that stop me.
19. I developed a taste for boiled peanuts in Florida.
20. I love taking photographs!
21. My favorite ethnic cuisine is Ethiopian. Injera and collards, anyone?
22. I have purple ice cream in my fridge. (Ube, it's Filipino).
23. I have a cousin who lives in Australia (waves to her)
24. My oldest cousin is old enough to be the grandfather of my youngest cousin.
25. My mothers' father's father was a slave.
26. I have two fairy godfathers.
27. I can see the ocean from my living room window.
28. On very clear days, I can see the Farallon Islands from my living room window.
29. I have never had a full drink of alcohol, nor tried illegal drugs.
30. I believe drugs should be legal.
31. I am sometimes codependent. But working on it.
32. I prefer Asian to European cuisines.

36. I have a PhD.
37. I am easily persuaded to go for Afghani and Indian cuisine.
38. I prefer salt to sweet. At a chocolate convention I went straight for the chips.
39. I have been out as bisexual for 14 years.
40. I was into polyamory before there was a word for it.
41. My favorite charity is Covenant House.
42. Most of my car's bumper stickers are symbols, not words.
43. I like manouri cheese, which is hard to find. No one else has it as an LJ interest.
44. I have postage stamps with weird bats on them.
45. I like to drink mauby.
46. I miss the Twin Towers.
47. I miss Rich, too.
48. I had all 4 grandparents living until I was 18.

so what's manouri cheese? sounds middle eastern.

Date: 2002-12-28 10:56 am (UTC)Manouri is a soft, salty-sweet-creamy Greek cheese, which I've only seen in Greek specialty food stores. Fortunately there is one such store in SSF or Daly City or someplace around there.
