Meme: The Avitable ‘My’ Meme

Filed under: Meme — bec September 21, 2008 @ 11:56 pm

While catching up on reading blogs (which I have been doing, I know I haven’t commented but… yes, I’m rubbish… It’s been an odd time for me recently.  I’ll pull my head out of my arse…)  I have seen this meme going around.  Created by the most magnificent Avitable and seen most recently by me) at SJ’s Psuedotherapy… here’s my addition to the joy.

  • My favorite age: Even though was insane pain and frantic joy - 20-21.  It taught me a lot about who I am.
  • My best friend: Hard to answer.  I have friends and people that I love but after being burned I try to keep away from the ‘best’ label.
  • My celebrity crush: Obviously David Tennant, Neil Patrick Harris, Davis Duchovny, and at the moment having a little James Marsden fascination.
  • My defining characteristic: Talking.  Too bloody much.
  • My most evil moment: Other than being involved in pushing a breakup that could have reconciled I think all my evil is in stopping someone from getting the promotion they wanted by dropping hints about their supposed rubbishness.  (Don’t worry, they have a fantastic job now - Karma sorted that one out!)
  • My favorite food: Yeah Toast!
  • My grossest injury: I had a stone bench drop onto my left foot fracturing it in three places… Oh no wait, the snapping of my left wrist on a dancefloor was far grosser - the sound alone!  I made it worse by refusing to go to the hospital.  It’s all fucked up now. Dumb? Me? Oh yes.
  • My biggest hatred: SJ already covered the cruelty to animals… I’d like to add ignorant sheep type people.
  • My most illegal activity: I once stole condoms from a chemist.  Yes, poor but safe student.   Stealing over embarrassment of evil ‘Family Planning’ clinic.
  • My need for justice: Justice for women across the world.  The international variances in rape laws and domestic violence is incredible.  Also… the treatment of our troops when they return home.
  • My most knowledgeable field: Singing.  Not so good at doing it at the moment but I can spot a flat note at 40 paces hence why I don’t watch TV talent shows.
  • My life’s goal: To feel content with myself.
  • My mother’s influence: I am learning from her that settling never brings happiness, but that you should take every moment of positivity that you can.
  • My nerdiest point: Talking a computer engineer through his job without the aid of any manuals.
  • My oldest memory: Sitting half way down the stairs at my grandmother’s house after waking up with a party going on downstairs.  I have my mother’s music box with me but am more interested in listening to the music coming from the front room - Gerry Rafferty’s Baker Street
  • My perfect date: Theatre - musical, followed by drinks at a Jazz club.
  • My unanswered question: When is it my turn?
  • My random fact: Loud music is fine and crowds are fine, but any other kind of loud noise irritates me to the point of screaming.
  • My stupidest decision: Not staying at uni and getting my degree.
  • My favorite television show: Currently on air? Doctor Who Of all time? The West Wing Runners-up would be The X-Files and also (yes, me too, SJ) Firefly.
  • My style of underwear:High leg briefs.  I like me the lace.
  • My favorite vegetable: Parsnips.  Roasted with a little honey.
  • My weakest trait: I feel inferior to just about everyone.
  • My X-men power: According to this quiz - Telepathic - which of course is best.  But really invisibility - you’d never know I as here if I didn’t want you to know.
  • My strongest yearning: To be right.
  • My moment of Zen: Singing loudly and without shame.

  1. Guess what? You’re not inferior to anyone except maybe Princess Michael of Kent, but then everyone is. It’s that hairstyle she has, all swept up and glam, no one has a hope of replicating it.

    You talk with fondness of music and singing. I notice the yearning often. I wonder if you should seriously look at getting back into some theatre work. I think it would do you the world of good.
    This was a great meme. I may steal it from you and of course, the gorgeous Avitable, and do it myself. Enjoyed learning more about you!

  3. My favorite age was 29. Just before 30, but still in my 20’s (barely). I had a daughter that was almost 1 and it life actually was pretty good.

  4. Selma - I do keep thinking about getting back on the boards but then the fear and the horror and the croaking sound that comes out of my throat… One day…

    Avitable - It certainly is. I would specify that my clothes go invisible with me though…

    martymankins - 29 for me… sucked. Hard. Am very very glad that 29 is over!
