Me, via the alphabet

Accent: Typical northwest accent with the very-nasal As. Prediliction to pick up the accents of others. Enjoy mocking the long, flat vowels of the Hull accent.

Breakfast or no breakfast: Don't usually take the time, but I frickin' LOVE brunch.

Chore I don’t care for: Scrubbing the sink. (tom would say, "all of them.")

Dog or Cat: omg KITTENS.

Essential Electronics: My awesome apple laptop, my ipod, my mobile, my new kitchen scale.

Favorite Cologne: For me? Michael by Michael Kors.

Gold or Silver: Silver, white gold (although it apparently needs frequent replating), or platinum.

Handbag I carry most often: Right now, my Fossil bag. I still have the Burberry bag that Kate gave me. And I still covet Kate Spade.

Insomnia: Comes and goes. Bastard.

Job Title: Let's say, "Disseminator of Information."

Kids: Not yet, although we've got the names. I want KITTENS.

Living Arrangements: One bedroom plus den. About 670 square feet, I think.

Most Admirable Trait: Er ..... I'm cute? I think that's the only thing that gets me out of trouble sometimes. Or into trouble, sometimes.

Naughtiest Childhood Behavior: I was pretty selfish. And I liked to sneak things.

Overnight hospital stays: One crappy crappy kidney infection = one week in the hospital over winter break of my sophomore year of college. Also, the crappiest feverish 12-hour cross-country travel event EVER.

Phobias: I think that I'm scared of most things, until I just have to deal with them. On the wussy and entertaining side of things, I don't really like the dark, and I don't like to flush the toilet in the dark - creeps me out.

Reason to smile: (and to also freak out) we're engagement ring shopping this weekend?

Siblings: A preciously-dorky younger brother.

Time I wake up: UGH. Alarms are set for 6:45 and 7:00 am during the week, but I often don't get up until 7:30 .... 7:45 .... yeah. I hate the morning. And on the weekends, I sleep absurdly late.

Unusual Talent or Skill: I can recall any tidbit of information if it is a) useless, and b) not what I'm trying to think of at a given time.

Vegetable I Refuse to Eat: I don't like peas. Blech.

Worst Habit: Lack of discipline. Procrastination. Being a half-assed friend. Selfishness. Laziness. Yep.

X-rays: I think just teeth. Other science-y exams, but not x-rays.

Yummy Stuff: I like desserts, but also savory and/or salty things. Mmmmmm, gravy.

Zoo Animal I Like Most: Sea otters! Oh, and kittens.
