[wispfox]

a - accent: all my very own! some combination of Wisconson (because of my parents), Pennsylvania (lived there until age 8), New England (have lived there since age 8), and my own mispronunciations of things that I read before hearing or trying to say (I try to fix these, but... too long saying something one way, and it's _difficult_ to change them). I also have some words from the southern part of the USA (most notably, "y'all", due to a lack of decent 'you' plural.). Other words, almost entirely random, because I pick up commonly used words by people I spend enough time around. There are a fair number of words I have multiple accents for, and a fair number of dialect specific words that I switch on depending on where I am.
b - breast size: Just right. ;)
c - chore you hate: cooking - trying to get better at this, but I do _not_ have talent for this. I'm not terrible, mind you, when I actually get around to making things via recipies, but... no strong pull toward cooking, and no particular talent for it.
d - dad's name: Allen. This is also my oldest brother and my father's father's name.
e - essential make up item: N/A - make-up is evil.
f - favorite perfume/oil scent: I don't wear scents. I do own one I've had forever that smells of coconut, though.
g - gold or silver: silver, I guess. I'm far more interested in semi-precious stones than in metals (opal & moonstone are _very_ high on my list of excellent stones).
h - hometown: Hershey, PA, USA is where I was born; Williamsport, PA is where I lived until age 8; Laconia, NH is where I lived until I moved out at age 17. I've also lived in Durham, NH; Nashua, NH; Concord, NH; and Andover, MA.
i - insomnia?: Yes. I both don't sleep quickly or easily, and don't _stay_ asleep.
j - job title: Um. Quality Assurance Engineer. And Bug Triager. And, this month, Primary Security Errata Contact.
k - kids: No. Gods, no. I'm maybe/possibly/eventually ok with helping other people raise theirs, but I will _not_ be primarily responsible for any child. That would be bad. Especially in the wintertime. My energy levels just can't cope sanely with children for very long. I have two nieces and a nephew, though!
l - living arrangements: Apartment, one roommate, and a cat. The only one on the lease is me. _MY_ apartment!
m - mom's birthplace: Wisconson, somewhere. Racine, I think, if I could only spell it.
n - number of people you've fallen in love with: Um. Depending on definition, somewhere between 5 and 7.
o - overnight hospital stays: Um... I don't know! At least one (toncils taken out), possibly three (two concussions as a child). Kidney stone removal was not overnight... I don't remember young enough, but there were probably a few then, _not_ including my being in an intubator (sp?) immediately after birth.
p - phobia: I don't think I have any?
q - quote you like: Heh. You want _one_?! "Sometimes I feel like a figment of my own imagination." -Unknown
r - religious affiliation: Um. Pagan, I guess, but I'm _really_ not strongly religious. Spiritual, yes. But not religious.
s - siblings: 5. Three older, two younger.
t - time you wake up: somewhere between 7am and 10am. Depends on work or not work, and how well I've been sleeping.
u - unnatural hair colors you've worn: purple! Right now! (I've also had auburn hair, but that's a natural-color, even though it's not _my_ natural hair color)
v - vegetable you refuse to eat: zuccini
w - worst habit: Letting my fears rule my behavior. I'm getting better!
x - x-rays you've had: arm, ankle, kidney area... um...
y - yummy foods you make: N/A
z - zodiac sign: libra. And if you're _really_ curious, go here. I make no claims of accuracy.
