WORST FEELINGS IN THE WORLD: Wanting to say something and not knowing the words, screwing up with people watching, being "shot down," making an ass of yourself and then realizing it later (I do that a lot). BEST FEELINGS IN THE WORLD: Waking up at 5am and realizing that I don't have to be up yet, feeling loved and loving somebody, chilling with friends. WHERE DO YOU SEE YOURSELF IN 10 YEARS: Hopefully wiser, maybe married with children. Working for a non-profit or a public policy think-tank. FIRST THING YOU THOUGHT OF THIS MORNING: Wow, I didn't get any sleep at all last night. I wish I could walk to the bathroom without almost falling over. (12/24/06) DO YOU GET MOTION SICKNESS: Hell yeah, all the freaking time ROLLERCOASTERS ARE THEY DEADLY OR EXCITING: I hate them, even if I didn't hate them I'm sure they'd make me motion sick. PEN OR PENCIL: Pen FUTURE SONS NAMES: James, Ciaran, Stephen, Benjamin. FUTURE DAUGHTERS NAMES: Mary, Eileen, Claire, Elizabeth. CHOCOLATE OR VANILLA: Vanilla, and frozen yogurt rather than ice cream (it's fat free) THUNDERSTORMS COOL OR SCARY: Neither, they make me nervous though IF YOU COULD DYE YOUR HAIR ANY COLOR WHAT WOULD IT BE: I like my hair the way it is, thank you. If I had to dye it, though, I'd probably dye it red. PIERCING AND WHERE: None TATOO AND WHERE: None, although I've flirted with the idea of celtic knotwork on the bicep FAVORITE QUOTE: "Where is the justice of political power if it executes the murderer and jails the plunderer, and then itself marches upon neighboring lands, killing thousands and pillaging the very hills?" -Kahlil Gibran, "The Voice of the Poet" WHAT IS ON THE WALLS IN YOUR ROOM: Nothing of my own yet, I'm still in transition from moving out of DC. IS THE GLASS HALF FULL OR HALF EMPTY: Half empty, although I'm trying to see it as half-full (optimists live longer). FAVORITE NUMBER: 23 DREAM CAR: Something small, a four door Escort or something along those lines. Maybe something larger if I ever have a family. Maybe a hybrid, I like the idea that they're more environmentally friendly. I've also been obsessed lately with Mini Coopers, so maybe I'll get one of those if I ever get a car. FAVORITE STORES: Sam Goody, Borders, Barnes & Noble, Starbucks (yeah, I know, I'm a corporate whore. They have good chai though).

In particular, since you'll probably do it at least once in awhile, try to do so as little as possible so that said potential date will not think that you're a freak. WERE YOU EVER ARRESTED: Nope ;) WHAT DO YOU REGRET MOST IN LIFE: My damned shyness, also my indecisiveness. WHO CAN YOU TRUST THE MOST WITH YOUR PROBLEMS: My brother Sean, although I can't think of why, plus Mel and my VSC roomies.
