Memes, new and old; Gilmore Girls at last

Remember that meme from way long ago where people took pictures of things that were requested of them, because they had or were getting digital cameras around that time? Well, I'm slow as always, but now that I finally have a digital camera, I want to take pictures of things! So ask and ye shall receive. (Pics of Christian Bale in the nude may take me awhile, but never fear, one day I'll have my company, Stalkers Inc., up and running.)
In the meanwhile, my dog is the unfortunate victim of my picture-taking escapades. Usually it's of him sleeping (sometimes in really strange, contorted ways), because that's basically what he does all day. I think he's awake like four hours out of every day, if that. The rest of the time, he's sleeping. Is that normal? I mean, I know it's partly due to the fact that I'm playing WoW so much, but it's possible I would curb my playing if he weren't sleeping all the time, giving me license to play more. It's a vicious cycle.
I have finally started to watch my Gilmore Girls DVDs. I've never even seen one episode before now. Is it wrong that when I saw Chad Michael Murray in other places, I thought he was heinous, and then when he showed up on GG I was like, "Hey, he's such a punk, I might actually like him!"? (This is why the Hatsumi/Shinogu shippers tried so hard to get me to see the error of my ways.)
My favorite catalog: I don't really like catalogs. I find looking at things I want but cannot actually have kind of pointless. Pictures of hot guys are the exception.
My favorite artist: Meeehhh... I find that most art escapes me. My taste runs to the fairly mainstream. There's only been one painting that made me stand there and go, "WOW." I saw it with my friend Richard at the National Gallery in D.C., and we've been looking for it online ever since. It was huge, took up a whole wall, and had to do with the Mediterranean with a woman or women lounging in the foreground. I'd get a print of it, if I could ever find one, except I don't think it'd do the original justice, so maybe it's best that it just stay in my head.
A food I shouldn't eat but I love: All desserts like pie, cake, ice cream, brownies, the blondies I just made...
A scent other people like which I don't: Vanilla. I like the smell of real vanilla, especially if I'm about to eat something that has it, but vanilla perfume and such -- blech! It's far too cloying for me.
My favorite gadget: My iPod!
The thing about Winter which makes me happiest: At the moment, I can't think of a single thing. It's sub-zero temperatures here right now, and all I have to say is, I WAS NOT MADE FOR THIS.
The thing about Summer which makes me happiest: Being warm.
My dream car (or other mode of transport): I'd love to have a fully loaded yacht. :D
First thing I'd buy if I had an extra $1,000 lying around: A trip to Hawaii. (The best place I could get for $1K, I think. Otherwise I'd go abroad.)
My favorite thing that starts with Z: Zeroes. Especially if there are a lot of them behind another number on a paycheck that belongs to me.
Huey, Dewey or Louie? Honestly, you've stumped me with this one.
Hi-fi, wi-fi, or sci-fi? Wi-fi. Finding unsecured wireless Internet connections while on vacation ROCKS!
Head, shoulders, knees or toes? While I have a strange fondness for knees, I'll go with head. Because, you know, everything else is kinda pointless without one.
To conclude: Make me take pictures of things!
