Meme, and the wedding

From ellyssian, when I was tagged *ages* ago.
A. List seven habits/quirks/facts about yourself.
B. Tag seven people to do the same.
C. Do not tag the person who tagged you or say that you tag "whoever wants to do it".

1. Dessert is not dessert unless it's accompanied by a cup of strong coffee. Never underestimate a good cup of coffee with a small drop of cream, especially if it chases bites of rich chocolate cake.

2. I find an instant dislike for people who label themselves "brutally honest", or variations thereof. More often than not, it's hip code for "I'm an unapologetic dick". It is possible to be honest without being an ass, trust me.

3. I have a habit of signing up for things with the intention of bettering myself - gym, newspapers, magazine, groups, organizations - without following through. Me and everyone else, I know, but it doesn't make me feel any better about it. I still hope to take in an arts event at least once a week this year, but everything else is up in the air.

4. My facial default seems to be "dour". This is in no way indicative of my current state of mind; I just don't smile when I'm not thinking of anything in particular. However, this does not mean that I tolerate strangers telling me to smile.

5. I like pleasant surprises. A lot. Really, it's scary how much an unexpected good event can brighten my day. I'm quite easy in that regard. I'm the type of person who would swear up and down she doesn't want a party, but would love you forever if you snuck one up on me. Then again, my party specifications would make me fairly high maintenance.

6. Watching bad things is physically painful for me. I'd like to go all MST3k on things, but the cringe factor is entirely too much for me to make it through most times. This explains why I'm pretty sure I'll never revisit QAF US ever ever ever again.

7. Green is my favorite color. I think I decided upon it when I consciously decided against anything too overtly "girly" back in elementary. I wouldn't don pink if my life depended on it.

I tag: pr_spin_girl, modpixie, darker_one, atraxia, devoosha, wolfsavard, doc_drew.
No obligations, of course. ::readies the ninja lemurs::

( The wedding, without a hitch. I KNOW! )

Now I get ready to watch the Giants dominate Green Bay (*snort* I can dream, can't I?) with beer and pizza by my side. Let's go, Big Blue!

P.S. Hey, Torchwood actually *isn't* that bad. Ha.
