So...

I see this meme going around -- the whole "learn more about the people on your friends list" meme.

I figure I'm a bandwagondy type, so I'll jump.

Here's what I've told other people so far:

I'm a night person & a morning person. But I don't much like afternoons. I think Nightmare Before Christmas has the best soundtrack of any children's movie ever. I like to buy movie soundtracks, and some of my favorites are Red Violin and Braveheart (which is also my favorite movie of all time). I have two phobias -- rejection and failure. I'm mildly allergic to pineapple, but eat it anyway because it is my favorite fruit. I have very long, very curly black hair -- the kind that, if wet, can be used to bitchslap people in the face. I used to think I hated eggplant, but it turned out I just hated the way my mother cooked it (and she's usually such a good cook). I have a fetish for hands that pops up fairly frequently in my fanfiction. Tori Amos is my favorite musical artist, but Rufus Wainwright's "Hallelujah" has the coolest lyrics ever.


So, yeah -- tell me something about yourself, if you feel like it. There are 29 of you now who have friended me, and most of you I don't know all that well.

Lush is a company that sell things like soap, bubble-bath, skincare etc. basically everything one would imagine in a bathroom except that it all looks like (and sometimes smell like) candy, chocolate, pastrys or something edible. Most of the things will be cut up in the amount that you want, weighed, and wrapped in paper, like in a deli. They use organic fresh ingredients and nothing has been tested on animals. I love it. But I also love spending hours in the bathroom and having long, long soaks in the bathtub. I was surprised to find out that they don't have any stores in the United States. I just assumed so because they have stores all over the world on every continent, puzzling!

It was a bit silly of me to put down that I was naked at the theatre, in retrospect it would be more fun if people thought I was an old stripper.

Being a fire-eater is really not difficult at all, but very easy once you know how. I think it is getting started that puts people off, it can be scary to put a burning torch on your skin or in your mouth for someone who has never done it, even fire-breathing which is really a piece of cake might seem difficult at first, but it isn't. What does poi mean? I tried to look it up but couldn't find it.

It's a general term for fire play. I think the word itself is Hawaiian. I don't know if you ever saw Lilo and Stitch but there's some poin in that movie. The term covers pretty much everything from fire breathing to twirling flaming batons to fire whips.
