Oh, look, a cockroach."

Can we do that thing where you give me a subject and I list TOP 5? Please? Because I'm bored, and needs should definitely be met. As long as it doesn't require ointments the next day.

Because I'm drained. (I gave blood today and I just finished writing a fic, which always makes me feel unficish. It'll be a day or two more. ;o)

Top 5 shows

I don't watch a lot of tv. The only show I'm watching religiously that's on right now is "24". If BtVS or AtS were still on, I'd never miss them. There was a time when I wouldn't miss "Gilmore Girls," but now I never watch it. I wouldn't mind seeing every ep of Disney's "Gargoyles."

Top 5 Tori Amos songs

Oh, this one is agonizing. I'm going with the ones that struck me the most when I first heard them, because choosing a favorite is impossible.
-Winter
-Me and a Gun
-Muhammed My Friend
-Concertina
-her rendition of '97 Bonny and Clyde (never heard the Eminem version but man is hers creepy! I love it.)

There is a lot of her stuff I haven't heard yet. I don't own all her albums, but all the ones I do own I love to bits and pieces.

I'll get back to you on the Connor one. I have to go look them up!

We'd like to thank you for participating in this bid to entertain tkp. Have fun with your life supply of ducks!

[a2zmom.livejournal.com]

You gave blood! Excellent. (I'm usually too anemic.)

And I still have to respond to your mail, which I will do tomorrow, but short response regarding the Bar Mitzvah.

The actual affair is June 10 but since Zack-a-doo finally decided where his wants his party held, I have to make catering arrangements, party decorations, hire a DJ, find a hotel, etc. etc. So, I'm doing some running around over the next few days.

Which is why I'm not working on your story, either. Hee. (But, send the new one. No prob.)

The shows could be from the past like Buffy/Angel.

"Muhammad My Friend" is one of my favorite songs by her.

Oooh, ducks! Now I can have omelets! (I have a slight allergy to chicken eggs, which prevents me from eating them by themselves. But I can have duck eggs.)

Top 5 salty snacks, sweet snacks. So is that like, 5 salty snacks, 5 sweet snacks? Or 5 sweet and salty snacks? Or 2.5 salty, 2.5 sweet?

salty
-Combos
-Cheez-its
-Pringles
-McDonald's french fries
-eggs with bacon, parmesean, garlic, pepper (salty cause I put salt on 'em)

sweet
-cookies
-double stuff oreos
-peanutbutter oreos
-girlscout cookies
-dark chocolate chip dried cherry walnut oatmeal cookies (everything cookies, for short)
(bonus) : icecream. With cookies.

sweet and salty
-pringles with marshmellows on them
-McDonald's french fries dipped in Wendy's frosties
-peanutbutter sunday from our local custard place
-Pei Wei Spicy chicken
-apples dipped in creamcheese, carmel, and salty peanuts. Oh god, try it.

Top 5 Tear-jerker moments from movies
-when Liam Neeson keeps saying he could've got one more and he's all hot and brood and so so sad! (Schindler's List, only movie that makes me cry every single time).
-when Mel Gibson is all, "FREEEEEEEDOMMMMMM!" (when he says it in Braveheart, not Chicken Run)
-when Tim Robbins escapes from jail and Norton Warden is all WTF (Shawshank Redemption)
-when Triton gets turned into a bottom dweller by Ursula the giant octopus (The Little Mermaid)
-when ROTK ended and I knew there'd be no more.

Top 5 Tear-jerker moments from TV

I don't watch much tv and I don't cry much. BtVS/AtS are pretty much it.

-"Prophecy Girl"
-"The Wish"
-"Chosen"
-"Home"
-Belle and Sebastian, when they finally got to where they were going (it was on so long ago now I can't remember. Best. Show. Ever. I need to find out if there are dvds).

Top 5 Squirmy-Hot-Sexy moments in movies.

-when Alan Rickman opened his mouth and talked.
-when Julia Ormond touches Harrison Ford's hair in the newer version of Sabrina, and they kiss.
-when Rogue goes to check on Wolverine because he's nightmaring and Hugh Jackman stabs her and she drains away his life. Or when Hugh Jackman as the Wolverine is doing anything, really.
-Scarlett and Rhett's first kiss (all their kissing. Vivien Leigh claims Clark Gable's breath stank)
-Samantha Morton and Cirian Hinds' first kiss in the A&E Jane Eyre. It's been on several lists as the worst kiss ever, but I like it because she looks absolutely like someone who's never kissed before. The scene where she runs away is hot, too, even if it's all wrong.

Top 5 Squirmy-Hot-Sexy moments in TV.

-when Lizzy turns down Mr. Darcy in the A&E Pride and Prejudice (is that tv? It was a mini-series. Really, I was squirming. No touching and no nothing, just arguing and . . . oh, 'tis hot).
-when Buffy and Angel were kissing in the morning in "Innocence," I think.
-when Angel pushed Buffy against the refrigerator and she wrapped her legs around him and he moved her over to the table and climbed on top of her
-when Jack got tortured (naked) in S2 of "24"
-when Spike is talking to Anya, before they start humping on the table. Usually Spike on screen equals hotness, but there was something in particular about that scene. Which is weird, because I tend to think he has more chemistry with Buffy than Anya, but it was an Anya scene.

Oh, and thanks for accepting this mission to keep tkp entertained. Your lifetime supply of super swank spy sunglasses should be on its way. Now with stars!

LJ has been trying to sign people out when they reply to things, these days. Ack! Thank you for coming along on this adventure to rescue me from my boredom. You will soon recieve this complimentary boy on your doorstep.

Top 5 desserts

-dark chocolate chip dried cherry walnut oatmeal cookies (everything cookies, for short)
-"peanutbutter mountain" sundae from the local custard place
-Kahlua cake from my favorite Mexican place
-mudslide (icecream, milk, dark chocolate sauce, Kahlua, vanilla twist vodka, and Bailey's Irish Cream)
-Ben & Jerry's toffee heathbar crunch

I'm going to get back to you on the other ones after I let them stew. Such interesting questions!

[tkp.livejournal.com]

If I give blood more than 4 times in a year, I can write a personal note to someone who recieves my blood. So, I was thinking of what I would write, and lit upon a fabulous notion: I could just send them a copy of that fic I wrote "Blood Types," and my recipient would be so thrilled.

Ooh! Sounds like a lot of work, but it must also be so exciting.

I'll send it over tomorrow. No rush.

Reading fanfic (I feel like it's wasting my time, but I love to do it)
Writing fanfic (same)
Watching movies (same)
reading my mom's romance novels (this is true, true guilt. At least the quality of the fanfic I read tends to be high. This stuff is just schlock.)
something unmentionable. But loads of fun!

[semby.livejournal.com]

5... hmm. I'm running low on ideas. Five historical figures you wish you'd met? Five favorite cities? Five favorite shades of lipstick?

[semby.livejournal.com]

Just thought I'd let you know that your list of "sweet and salty" snacks seriously grosses me out. Really. Weird.

top 5 favorite birds

Hey! I already knew mine, or I wouldn't have asked.
-herons
-egrets (both herons and egrets frequent our neighborhood byous. And I will always associate egrets with my one of my favorite books from when I was 13 or so, because there were egrets on the cover.)
-seagulls (okay, they're annoying. But 1. my grandfather loves to feed them his chubs, and I have such lovely memories of him feeding them and my granny and him discussing their bullying ways, 2. the book Johnathan Livingston Seagull. I have a seagull necklace, even. I just like 'em.)
-sandpipers. They're very common around here, and they run really really fast instead of flying.
-sparrows. (I love the ones that appear in the book A Little Princess--all my favorite birds have to do with books, it seems--and they're really fun to make metaphors out of.)

top 5 favorite foods
-dark chocolate chip dried cherry walnut oatmeal cookies (everything cookies, for short)
-my mommy's homecooked pizza
-lamb tikka masala with rice and the onion thing from that place in Norwich I can't go to any more because I'm not in the UK
-sausage balls
-Houston's (the restaurant) spinach dip

top 5 favorite BtVS episodes

-Prophecy Girl (that's when I knew I was in love with this show)
-Passions (I loved it when he killed Jenny. I wanted Angelus evil evil evil because that makes Angel that much more of an interesting and strong person, imo)
-The Wish (for exactly the reason you said on yours. Cordy does NOT die in eps like that. Also, Wishverse!Buffy is bloody brilliant. I love Buffy so, so much, and to see her like that tore me apart. Plus, the slo mo at the end kills me every time)
-Hush (goes without saying, really)
-Once More With Feeling (I can't believe they pulled it off)

Thank you for embarking with us into this realm of entertainment and imagination. You will be recieving this cute, peaceful bunny for your efforts.
