From [livejournal.com profile] naath, [livejournal.com profile] rochvelleth, [livejournal.com profile] cartesiandaemon and probably others:

The problem with LJ: we all think we are so close, but really we know nothing about each other. So I want you to ask me something you think you should know about me. Something that should be obvious, but you have no idea about. Ask away.

NB from me: I naturally won't answer personal questions about other people and I'm not going to give just anyone my address/phone number - and no, you may not have my credit card number! But pretty much any other subject is fair game!

Today not bad at all. Path prac finished nice and early, which was good as I am really rather tired. Went for lunch with [livejournal.com profile] girlofthemirror and [livejournal.com profile] illusive_shelle and discovered that I have probably not automatically secured tickets for the Nightwish concert I was planning to go to in Feb, so need to take active action. *kicks self up backside* I'm not good at active action, so this'll be fun.

Have estimated my spending (according to bank statement) at a little less than £40 a week. This would be GOOD. This means I can treat myself later on this term. Of course, it doesn't factor in the books I bought (about £70 worth, as I recall), but means I'm not living beyond my means. I have truly compulsive Scroogeness, possibly caused by my outrage over the price of Things in general. Also, to note, cooking for oneself is MUCH cheaper than eating in Hall. Also allows me to justify booking myself for a riding lesson next week (*squees at thought*). Assuming I can get a place on one of the lessons I can actually make.

Okay...Since I know next to nothing about you, I'll go first.
If given unlimited amounts of guilt-free time would you rather:
A)take a riding lesson.
B)Write a story.
C)Read a good book/story.
D)Molest a movie-star of your choosing.

Naturally, I would go with D, but I have no idea who I'd choose. Today feels a bit more like a Johnny Depp sort of day, but I just caught a shot of Jared Leto in eyeliner for "Alexander," so he's in the running too.

Oooh, decisions! I guess it depends what mood I'm in and the time of day! If it's midnight, I'd rather be writing, or reading if it's something good. On a Sunday morning I'd probably go for the riding cos I haven't been for ages.

As for molesting a movie star...I honestly don't really have the hots for any movie star in particular at present, so I'd probably pass. Though I'd never refuse Sandro Kopp looking like this! (http://www.sandrokoppofficialfanclub.com/Caerusnake_op_571x800.jpg)

To play the meme game...

What is it thatI don't know about you that you think I should?

I'm actually a man and my real name is Keith.

Gosh how suprising! How you kept that from me for quite so long I will never know.

Fancy a coffe/other hot beverage of your choice sweet?

Would love to at any other time, but I'm off to bed in half an hour. (Some of us have 10am lectures tomorrow, you know ;) ) Also, might make some notes on phages before I go to bed...

I could answer that one.... nightwish! (am I right?)

From: [identity profile] enismirdal.livejournal.com
Nightwish! Easy one to answer! They rule; OK, their early stuff was a bit rough round the edges, but the latest stuff has been WOW!

Without looking it up, how many dragons can you name off the top of your head?

Date: 13 Nov 2004 00:32 (UTC)
From: [identity profile] enismirdal.livejournal.com
From how many series?

Could probably manage 30 or so if I'm allowed to delve into Anne McCaffrey's books...it's been long enough since I last read her stuff that my mental dragondex has degraded somewhat.

Feel free -- include fire lizards if you want :) (Still finds 'dragondex' very amusing.) Or don't bother: I'm not sure why that question sprang to mind. But it's better than quizzing you on embarassing personal history :)

Can you remember what I look like?

Date: 13 Nov 2004 12:19 (UTC)
From: [identity profile] enismirdal.livejournal.com
Yeah, I think so. Darkish hair, as I recall, pretty cute.

Date: 13 Nov 2004 16:59 (UTC)
From: [identity profile] ilanin.livejournal.com
...pretty cute
:)

I asked because "I think so" would have been my answer to the question the other way around. Clearly, people at Rivendell need to hold more parties (to which they invite us....)

Ok then, favourite Nightwish track? And fav Nightwish album, while we're at it...

Date: 13 Nov 2004 20:29 (UTC)
From: [identity profile] enismirdal.livejournal.com
Oooh, difficult. Fave song probably Wishmaster, but Over the Hills and Far Away, The Kinslayer, She Is My Sin and Wish I Had An Angel come in as close joint seconds...

Fave album...Over the Hills and Far Away, I guess, as it would have 4 out of the 5 of the above on it.

So what do you consider your accent to be? :)

Date: 13 Nov 2004 21:19 (UTC)
From: [identity profile] enismirdal.livejournal.com
Generic Northern, currently tending slightly more towards South Manc than anywhere else?

It's likely to be a mixture of Sheffield, Leeds, Manchester, Cheshire, maybe London, Cambridge, and tends towards a blend of Birmingham and Liverpool when I get overexcited :D
