1. i'm a little high-strung.
2. i'm answering these separately for everyone who asks.
3. i'm not sure. being alone was the first thing that i thought of, but 'going insane' is right up there, and i spend a lot of time worrying about that.
4. the shortcut only if it's still safe. i mean, if it's muddier or whatever, yeah, but if i'm thinking a rapist may be lurking, no way.
5. i NEED to be loved. and i want to be adored. i can't survive without my connections to other people, and money can't buy affection. still, i'm a super-introvert and i can't stand crowds. contradictory much?
6. i really don't know. my dog, if a dog is a possession. maybe this red flannel shirt i'm wearing, which was my daddy's when he was in college.
7. i procrastinate constantly and it drives me nuts.
8. i prefer relatively short and intense sex to long and langorous. even in fic--i'll get bored and skim.
9. i don't get cuddled and kissed as much as i want to because i have a freakishly large, insatiable appetite for cuddling.
10. that i'm never wrong.
11. feel romantic emotion so strongly it's like an epiphany.
12. i'm getting better.
13. chocolate! i knew there was something.
14. my aunt and uncle, who are v poor, let me live with them rent free all last summer
15. break something
16. about ten minutes ago... maybe less
17. i'm tempted to say i can't remember, because it always FEELS that way when you're a little down. but in fact it was about two days ago. i'm moodswingy. i get highhighhighs and lowlowlows.
18. nope, no way
19. haven't done anything embarrassing, am v boring drunk... and haven't been drunk v many times
20. too late :)

1. Tell me something obvious about yourself.
I'm a woman.
2. Tell me something about yourself that I don't know.
I've been to Poland.
3. What is your biggest fear?
Wasps! Argh! Seriously, it'd be that a loved one of mine gets into a bad accident.
4. Do you normally take the safe route or the shortcut?
That depends very much of the situation.
5. What is the one thing you want the most that you can't buy with money?
Good relations with my friends and loved ones.
6. What is your most treasured possession?
A healthy body. If that can be called a possession...
7. What is the one thing you hate most about yourself that you do the most often?
Verbally cut to shreds someone I care deeply about, when I'm in a temper. Fortunately, this doesn't happen often, and I make every effort to avoid it.
8. Tell me something about you sexually that I don't know.
I got my first kiss at the age of seven from my cousin. Very wet and sloppy! X)
9. Tell me something about you sexually that everybody knows.
I'm a woman! :D
10. What is your favorite lie to tell?
The words 'favorite' and 'lie' don't go at all well together in my opinion. But the lie I've told most often is 'I couldn't say.'

Go sailing!
12. Are you the jealous type?
Fortunately not :)

I'd like to know that, too! I suppose I haven't encountered it yet...
14. What is the nicest thing someone has ever done for you?
Tough question! So many people have done nice things to me at different times and situations. I definitely appreciate all my friends who've listened to me rant on and on about various irritations.
15. If you could do something crazy right now, what would it be?
Dash off to the airport, fly to Iceland, and go swim in the Blue Lagoon hot springs!
16. When was the last time you cried?
Last week, when a friend and I angsted about the really emotionally nasty things in life.
17. When was the last time you felt so good that nothing else mattered?
About a month ago, I think.
18. Do you feel comfortable in public with no shirt on?
Define 'public'. In a public swimming pool, yes. On the street, no!
19. Name something embarrassing you did while drunk.
Collided with someone on the street, fell over, and answered the person's query in Finnish about my welfare in Swedish...
20. If you post this in your journal, do you want me to answer it?
That'd be nice, but you don't have to, if you'd rather not.

Safe route. Always. Almost.

That I am very prude. Although everybody thinks
I am just making a joke about it.

10. What is your favorite lie to tell?

I don't like to tell lies. So I can't name
any favourite one.

11. Name something you have done once that you can't wait to do again.

This is a tough one.
One thing comes to mind though. I have been to Düsseldorf once and I experienced the most astounding thunderstorm raging all over the sky
above the city with dozens of giant lightnings blazing.
It was the best place (lots of open space by the river back) to enjoy a giant storm and I'd like to see something like that again. Don't ask me why thunderstorms look better in Düsseldorf. ; )

My husband promised to marry me.

15. If you could do something crazy right now, what would it be?

Sing loudly along with "Holding out for a hero" from Shrek 2 soundtrack (btw, never knew Jennifer Saunders is such a good singer). With some dance moves. Is that crazy enough? Considering that I am writing this at work and there are plenty of co-workers and customers around.

When I read Harry Potter two days ago. Don't ask...

17. When was the last time you felt so good that nothing else mattered?

About a year ago. Can't remember exact date, but it
was too long ago. That much I can say. Hasn't been a
very good year, has it?

18. Do you feel comfortable in public with no shirt on?

No. I don't feel comfortable with no shirt on even if
I am alone at home. Told you I am prude!

19. Name something embarrassing you did while drunk.

I snogged with a guy I shouldn't have. But that was about 15 years ago so I guess I can forgive myself now.

20. If you post this in your journal, do you want me to answer it?

Why not! If you just find out who I am. : )

Pardicie (a person usually known by another alias)
