What type of Fae are you?

Hm. I'm not really sure I'm such a rules person...then again I do like to know where I stand in a situation...and I am pretty callous by most people's standards...what do you guys think?

Thiefed from the lovely and talented [info]flyingwild. Because I absolutely MUST have a quiz that describes me as a recipe. That's just a total given.

Your Score: Sad Cookie Cat


81% Affectionate, 45% Excitable, 60% Hungry




You are the classic Shakespearian tragedy of the lolcat universe. The sad story of a baking a cookie, succumbing to gluttony, and in turn consuming the very cookie that was to be offered. Bad grammar ensues.

The Nature of Reality
Thiefed from the always gorgeous [info]helzebel =D

Here are the rules:
1) Comment and ask to be tagged!
2) I will pick THREE of your interests and/or user pics I find odd or nifty!
3) You post, explaining in detail about the three I chose!
4) People comment on your post!

I got tagged by Hel, and here were the three items she picked:

Icons:
Blissful Fangirl Moment
Genius
SQUEE!

Interests:
ace
feasting on asphalt
sock puppet yeast


My Answers:

ICONS:
Blissful Fangirl Moment: I have a bad habit of stealing people's LJ icons, sometimes even going so far as to rummage through their entire userinfo looking for ones I like. =D Naturally I always credit, but it's definitely an addiction. Anyway, I don't remember specifically where I got this one, but I've been using it lately because I always need a fangirl icon (with all the squeeing I do over so many things, they're kind of a necessity) and this one seemed very funny and appropriate. I often feel like apologizing for my "fangirl moments" where I've been known to go off at a hundred miles an hour rambling about something the people around me find totally incomprehensible.

Genius A Doctor Who quote, of course! I have several versions of this one and felt like using the white one this time. I picked it up recently from a post in my favorite Doctor Who icons comm. :) I use it because I have a very high opinion of my intelligence, and often feel like I'm the only smart person in the room.

SQUEE! Picked this up from someone who commented in a DW icon post (again, from the DW comm indirectly). See, I told you I root through people's userinfos for icons. Anyway, if you don't know, the character pictured here is Claire Bennet, from Heroes, a show I love. (It's a lot like a watered down version of X-men minus the crazy costumes) It was just so sparkly and pink and pretty that I thought it would be nice to have. :) Like a fangirl icon, I always need a SQUEE icon (or a similar form of exuberant expression) to cover all those moments when I'm just too excited to say anything else. (I have many of these.)

INTERESTS:
ace My favorite Doctor Who companion. Yes, I know, I love Rose too, but even though Ace never absorbed the entirety of the time vortex she did beat a Dalek to death with a baseball bat and has put her mind/body/soul on the line for the Doctor a number of times without even questioning it. She was the second companion of the Seventh Doctor (who as you know is my favorite Doctor) and while they had their disagreements, Ace kicks ass. She blows stuff up on a regular basis, isn't afraid to let you know exactly how little she thinks of you (many of my creative insults come from lines Ace has had), and she believes in the Doctor 100%. I adore her.

feasting on asphalt For this you should probably go to Wikipedia. It's a show done by Alton Brown, in which he travels through the country on his motorcycle looking for out of the way places to eat hardcore American "road food". It's funny, informative, and even kind of touching in spots. The episode where he reached the ocean made me a little teary. :) A second season of Feasting comes out this August, and if you want to learn about America and it's food--this is the show to watch.

sock puppet yeast This is something from Alton Brown's original show, Good Eats. Every time he explains what yeast is and what it does and how, these little sock puppets with wild eyes and things sticking out of their head appear on the screen and fart and burp loudly to illustrate yeast's purpose in bread. It's hilarious. Once he even had some "wild yeast" on the show, and they wore little leather biker jackets and sunglasses and looked really punk and hardcore. Talking about sock puppet yeast is a sure sign you've met a hardcore Good Eats geek. *guilty as charged* ♥

OK, that's my stuff in a nutshell. Anybody else want to have a go? :)

The Nature of Reality
Last night he bought me a thumb drive for all my stories! Isn't that awesome? I have named it Bob because the little light turns blue when it's plugged into my computer. (This is of course a nod to Reboot, should you be a fellow fan) The amount of awesome things I can do with this tiny little drive are endless. It's so easy to use, too. I just plug it in and it's like having a completely separate hard drive to play with. And it still floors me that everything I have EVER written - we're talking YEARS of material, here, including my 200,000 word novel - fits (with room to spare) into something I can hold in the palm of my hand. That's just incredible.

Behold Bob the beautiful! (the little silver part that plugs into the USB port is retractable. XD Sweet, yes?)



We also got a HUGE stand mixer last night. This thing is a beast. I haven't taken a picture yet, but I will soon. We've already made a batch of biscuits and two batches of white bread in it, and I get to use it tomorrow for my baking. :) It's really cool. I foresee many fine baked goods in my future. XD

And now, a lengthy (but very informative) quiz/meme thiefed with love from my friend Rebecca. (bippimousie) =D )
