So there's that meme going around ... it goes something like, "There are things about me you probably think you should know but don't, so ask away." I'm too lazy at the moment to search for the exact wording, but you get the point. So, hit me with questions if you've got any. In fact, you don't have to limit yourself to personal questions. It can be about fic, basketball scores, quadratic equations ... don't be shy. If it's too personal I'll tell you so. (I don't talk to just anyone about quadratic equations, you know.)
My day tomorrow is blissfully meetingless. \:D/

3) Yes! I've mailed it by sea-mail, so your professor should get it in about 3 months. Let's keep our fingers crossed that it does! And that I spelled 'gennicyde' correctly!

I'm going to go with the Sydney as my favorite shape, and her signature rose print as my fave print. But I'm not sure if there was ever a SRP Sydney made. ;)

Date: 2004-11-18 07:02 pm (UTC)Since I'm here... *whispers* Who are your favorite romance authors?
Re: Totally OT
Date: 2004-11-18 07:27 pm (UTC)- Meg Cabot, if you count her stuff as romance. Some of her adult contemporary stuff could possibly be classified as such. Her real romance novels, however (She Went All the Way and the books written as Patricia Cabot), aren't nearly as good as her other material.
- Diana Gabaldon, if you consider her stuff as romance, also. ;) I would say that Outlander counts, though it's much more than your typical romance novel.
- Judith McNaught, before she started doing the romantic suspense thing, but it's been years since I last read something by her, so it's possible I've grown out of her work.
- Julia Quinn, the Bridgerton series specifically
- Lynne Graham, who I believe writes exclusively for Harlequin
There's my top 5, I suppose, even if there are caveats attached. ;)

How do you get your bags cleaned btw? I've got an ancient chocolate brown nylon Sam that needs some cleaning.
Re: Totally OT
Date: 2004-11-18 07:55 pm (UTC)Julie Garwood- (She was the first author my HS mate turned me to. I have moved to her contemporary novels too.)
Julia Quinn- of course and aside from the Bridgertons I like her Lady Whistledown collaborations.
Judith McNaught- second fave from HS
Susan Johnson and various Har/Sil authors
I like American soccer and European Football.
You never put a limit on how many questions we could ask...
Date: 2004-11-18 08:46 pm (UTC)2) Have you ever been into jazz? If so, who?
3) What's your favourite Tom Hanks film - or are you one of those anomalies who can't stand him?
4)If you and Jade switched bodies for a day, much in the Buffy/Faith style, what would get up to?
5) You are faced with two doors. Behind one is Christian Bale. Behind the other is an all-you-can-eat sushi buffet. Which door do you go through?
6) Which is creepier, an American doing a really bad English-accent or a Brit doing a terrible American-accent?
7) Why do birds suddenly appear, whenever you are near?

Date: 2004-11-18 11:15 pm (UTC)2) Not particularly, though I did take a jazz appreciation course in college. It definitely helped me appreciate it more, but as a rule I don't listen to much of it. Do you? I'd be interested in hearing your recs, since we seem to have other musical tastes in common... (The only jazz I really know is the stuff everyone knows, like "Sing, Sing, Sing." And the music in Swing Kids. :D)
3) I enjoy Tom Hanks. And I love Colin Hanks, too. As for favorite film ... Band of Brothers doesn't count, right? Assuming it doesn't count, I'd have to say ... um ... this is such a hard question! *weeps* I mean, when you say "Tom Hanks film," do you mean one where he was the undisputable star? Or just one that he was in, period? :-S I'm going for one where he was the undisputable star: Forrest Gump. I just love that movie.
4) HAHA! Outstanding question. Since I have no idea what she'd say (well, okay, yes I do, she'd probably sabotage my job and get me fired s that I'd move back to LA), I can only really tell you what I'd do, as her. I would:
* go through her computer and read any D/G ficbits that she might have stored on there that she hasn't yet shared with me
* make a long, rambly LJ post guaranteed to make people think I've gone off the deep end
* package up her portable DVD player, new laptop, and any CDs/DVDs I wanted and ship them to myself
* swim in her pool then run around her neighborhood in my bathing suit, singing "Henry the Eighth"
* eat celery and onions, just to see what the heck is so bad about them
* eat a bunch of other things, to see if any of it tasted differently
* flirt with all the bag boys at the local grocery store
* get things off shelves for people (since I would finally be tall and have the upper hand, so to speak)
* call her (me) on her (my) cell phone and torture her with the things I've been doing
Naturally, those are all the things I'd do if we weren't together. If we were together, it would sadly probably only consist of doing the same things we would if we were in our normal bodies (watch TV, eat, go to movies, play miniature golf, go to Magic Mountain). Only we might play some mind games on other people, particularly
5) :O :O :O
......... after much debating, I will go with Christian Bale, because I shouldn't participate in all-you-can-eat buffets anyway, and eventually I'd get enough of sushi. I'd never get enough of Christian. :D
6) HAHHAHAAHHAAHAA, I personally find an American doing a bad British accent creepier, probably because it happens so often. And because it is often unprovoked. Whereas I highly doubt Brits go around doing it for fun; usually it's for an acting gig or something, and also most are scarily good at it.
7) Just like you, they long to be ... close to me.

Date: 2004-11-18 11:39 pm (UTC)To be honest, I've been fairly anal about my bags, so wiping the nylon ones with a damp (not wet!) cloth has worked fairly well for me so far. If any of them needed cleaning beyond that, I'd probably go to Nordstrom's first and get their suggestions, then maybe take it to a dry cleaner's or something if they didn't have a better idea. I suppose contacting Kate Spade corporate would also be a consideration, but somehow I don't see them being too helpful. They and Nordstrom's would probably be like, "Just buy another one!" ;)
