Allyson over at the Sweatshop of Love posted this, and I thought it sounded like fun, so here goes.
A. Age: 30
B. Bed size: Queen
C. Chore you hate: Mopping. Give me a vacuum any day of the week, I hate mopping floors.
D. Dogs: are nice? I have a feline furbaby.
E. Essential start to your day: Good tunes. Today’s drive to work was courtesy of Elastica.
F. Favorite color: Green. Love green. Also feeling a trending affection for purple and gold, especially together.
I have been obsessed with this colorway since Maria first showed it to me.
G. Gold or silver: Silver.
H. Height: 5’9″ ish.
I. Instruments you play: I know the basics of guitar and keyboard. and I’m awesome at thigh-drumming. (don’t pretend you don’t know what I’m talking about.)

M. Mom’s name: Ellen.

T. Time you wake up: Usually between 6:30-7:30 every morning.

V. Vegetables you dislike: OLIVES. (It’s a vegetable in my book, Allyson.) And Onions.
W. What makes you run late: Me. There’s various things that happen, but it’s all because I’m not doing what I need to do.
X. X-Rays you’ve had: None. I’ve never broken a bone. (ditto)
Y. Yummy food you make: Muffins! I’m in love with muffins right now.
Z. Zoo – favorite animal: Pandas and penguins and pachyderms, oh my! (and big kitties, but that’s not quite as alliterative)
In other news, I bound off my shawl last night (confession: I sort of got tired of knitting it; it’s still going to be a good size when it’s blocked), so hopefully there will be photos of that soon. I think I’m in a shawl kick. I want to knit another one, maybe a Multnomah in my Fresh from the Cauldron Auld Lang Syne. BUT FIRST, I need to knock out a second sock.
“People who don’t use their blinkers when driving. They’re not optional on the car; I know you have them!” – I say this ALL. THE. TIME. Although it’s usually a more sarcastic sort of “Oh, clearly turn signals are optional on *that* model.”
Clearly, great minds think alike!
