1. What do you do? (Hobbies, job)
I'm a Nurse. (An Endorsed Enrolled Nurse for those who know what that is.. if you don't know it really is nothing remotely impressive. It just means that I get paid a tiny bit more to wipe arses.) I'm trained in Psych and Palliative Care, PC being my first love.. although for the last year I worked on a rehab ward where I got to say "No, you can't have a bed pan. We are getting you up to the toilet now" over and over again. Wow.. my life and ER. How can you tell the difference?
Anyways, I'm currently not working because I've taken some time off to write a play. Which really translates to "I've taken some time off to watch Judge Judy and eat chocolate until I fall into a coma. I don't know if it is Judge Judy or the chocolate that will put me there first.
Hobbies-wise there is music (eclectic tastes), painting (with soft pastels, mainly the human form), writing (sometimes erotica, sometimes poetry, usually involving blood and pain), reading (I love reading fluffy fun sci-fi/horror), sarcasm, ferrets and crochet. I'm not being sarcastic about the crochet.
2. Where are you from?
Well, when a mummy and a daddy love each other very much.. or, in my case they tolerated each other for a few minutes (hours if you ask my father, minutes if my mother tells the story) they get very close and part of the daddy's body gets... oh? That isn't what you're asking?
Oh. I'm from Sydney, Australia.
No, I didn't know Steve Irwin.
3. Who is your favorite author?
I want to say Samuel Beckett or Pablo Neruda, but being honest... Laurell K Hamilton. I SO have a thing for her Anita Blake Series. Actually, I SO have a thing for Anita Blake.
4. What are your favorite films?
Donnie Darko, Secretary, Broken Saints, Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead
5. What music do you want played at your wedding?
Well, I'm not going to get married. The government doesn't want me to. But, if I were to get married it would be Tainted Love by Soft Cell and a piece by Graham Bell called Bell, Book and Candle.
6. At your funeral?
The government doesn't mind if I die, so I'm going to have Am I Ever Gonna See Your Face Again by the Angels - the version with the swearing. If you are Australian you will know the song I'm talking about.
7. How do you want to die?
I haven't worked it out yet.. but I want to be found in mysterious circumstances, wrapped in lettuce leaves. It's going to make a GREAT urban legend!
8. What kind of casket would you want?
I want to be cremated and have my ashes kept in one of those cookie jars that are shaped like a cow and MOOOOO when you open the lid. I'm thinking of having the chip changed so the cookie jar says "OI! CLOSE THAT LID.. IT'S COLD IN HERE. WERE YOU BORN IN A BARN?!"
9. What's your favorite outfit?
I want to say my leather corset and black velvet skirt with my 5" heel Demonia boots... but truthfully I would have to say my pj's and fluffy monkey socks.
10. What's one thing you miss about being a little kid?
Not having people laugh at me when I wear my tiara to the store. I still wear it - you get used to the laughing.
11. What's your favorite band?
There are so many.. The Cure, Dresden Dolls, Joy Division, Placebo, Dresden Dolls, The Graphics, Dresden Dolls, Tori Amos, Dresden Dolls, Dresden Dolls, Humanwine, John Denver. No, I'm not joking about John Denver.
Oh. Did I mention the Dresden Dolls?
12. What kind of education do you have?
I've got a BA and Dip Ed. I studied English Lit and Theatre Studies and then concentrated on children with behavioral issues and developmental delays for my Dip Ed. I also have a Certificate IV in Theology and my Nursing Cert IV. I'm currently studying my BNursing and am in 2nd year.
13. Why did you join?
I was link-jacked on another website... and well, I am a total forum whore.
14. If the first 13 questions didn't give it away. What is your gender?
I'm a she. It could be confusing at times because I might also refer to my SO as a she as well. This is because I'm a lesbian, not because I'm dating myself.
15. Aren't you a bit weird?
Totally.
