Writer's Block: Tricky Questions

Another useless quiz?!?!

Your dominant hues are red and blue. You're confident and like showing people new ideas. You play well with others and can be very influential if you want to be. Your saturation level is lower than average - You don't stress out over things and don't understand people who do. Finishing projects may sometimes be a challenge, but you schedule time as you see fit and the important things all happen in the end, even if not everyone sees your grand master plan. Your outlook on life is bright. You see good things in situations where others may not be able to, and it frustrates you to see them get down on everything. |

Christmas Gift Meme

i_will_dare_89 step one.
+ Make a post to your LJ.
The post should contain your list of ten holiday wishes. The wishes can be anything at all, from simple and fandom-related ("I'd love a ______ icon that's just for me.") to medium ("I wish for _____ on DVD.") to really big ("All I want for Christmas is a new car/computer/house/TV."). The important thing is, make sure these wishes are things you really, truly want.
+ If you wish for real life things (not fics or icons), make sure you include some sort of contact info in your post, whether it's your address or just your e-mail address where Santa (or one of his elves) could get in touch with you. (Note: home address, not required!)
Also, make sure you post some version of these guidelines in your LJ, or link to this post (it'll be public) so that the holiday joy will spread.
step two.
+ Surf around your friends list (or friends' friends, or just random journals) to see who has posted their list. And now here's the important part:
If you see a wish you can grant, and it's in your heart to do so, make someone's wish come true. Sometimes someone's trash is another's treasure, and if you have a leather jacket you don't want or a gift certificate you won't use -- or even know where you could get someone's dream pure-bred basset hound for free -- do it.
You needn't spend money on these wishes unless you want to. The point isn't to put people out, it's to provide everyone a chance to be someone else's holiday elf -- to spread the joy. Gifts can be made anonymously or not--it's your call. There are no guarantees with this project, and no strings attached. Just...wish, and it might come true. Give, and you might receive. And you'll have the joy of knowing you made someone's holiday special.
step three. List your Ten Wishes
1. Blood Ties Fiction!! (I love all of it, but I haven't seen a good mystery or 'episode' lately)
2. My friends around me for the holidays
3. A lot of hugs for Christmas (I'm always in a cuddly mood)
4. Any non-USA money bills/notes/coins (low value, just for my son’s collection)
5. Christmas postcards (I'll give you my address if you want to send me).
6. Paid (or permanent) account
7. Can anyone catch me up on the Batman story line since about 1970?
8. An iPod Nano, Red or Purple, biggest Gbs.
9. Poetry
10. Inspiration for an excellent new fanfiction addiction
The Real So

evdokya
Name: Sherron Lucile O.
Current location: Madison AL, for the last 15 years, after a lot of moves
Birthplace: Knoxville, TN, USA
Age: I'm still holding on to 42 (for the last 5 years)
Star sign: Virgo, because the Zodiac has a sense of irony
First language: Southern English
Speaks: English -- you know, American and all. I've studied and can get the occasional phrase in: Spanish, Latin, French, German, Japanese, Chinese, and about 3 Russian phrases. I'm a language dabbler. I more enjoy studying about Languages than actually learning them.
Hair: mouse brown, with the occasional strand of silver (ah, for those teenage days, when my hair was still the blonde like my little boys' hair in my icon!)
Eyecolor: greenish? hazel?
Favorite color: Moody Blues? nah, it's RED!
Work: still mom/foster mom, wife, run the household, etc. Also Secretary for the local chapter of the Autism Society of America, full time Blood Ties lover :)
Academics: Lots of schools, lots of education, lots of majors, can't stick with anything long enough to get a 'degree' altho I actually have enough hours to have gotten both a BS and a BA, maybe a masters, too. I know just enough (about anything, you name it -- psych, English, quantum physics, religion, architecture, etc) to be dangerous. And I love to keep on learning. That's part of why homeschooling the boys all these years has been so fun.
Readings: Almost anything fiction or non fiction, I used to be heavily into SciFi, but lately I've slipped over into more of other stuff like Vampires and murder mysteries, good poetry of any kind, fanfic
Music: classic rock, some contemporary stuff, some country and gospel, classical if Thomas is playing it on the piano. Mostly I like anything that I can sing along with.
Original fiction: none. I do letters, nonfic, some poetry, but I rely on Evdokya and others for the fic!
Fell in love with Blood Ties: at first site... of Henry's smile, of course
Fav BT character: Henry... and Mike
Fav BT moment: one moment? you're kidding! Depends on what I'm feeling. Comic? When Vicki catches Mike and Henry together and they try to play innocent. Dark? The end of Heart of Fire -- from "I confess, I confess, . . . I confess" to Henry reciting th e blessing for meals as he drags the monsignoir off, to the end. Other? -- The first time we see Henry, the feeding scene. Now that's erotica!
Fav BT ep: 5:55
Fav BT fic: I'm not into starting feuds, so I'm not saying!
Fav BT vid: I can't pick one of these either. I've seen several really great ones
Fav BT quote: I very much like vika's fav, and for the same reason {"I chose to give my life to be with the woman I loved. I chose to experience hundreds of years of human history. And every time I feed, I am choosing to live. What is your choice, Vicki?" (Henry Fitzroy) - most telling Henry quote in my opinion}
And also one of the most telling set of quotes about Mike and Viki: Vicki - "I can take care of myself." Mike - "Garbage can. Twelve o'clock"
And of course the funny ones: Mike: Why can't we just once have a God of... oh, I dunno... let's say, fluffy bunnies and long walks holding hands?
And the juicy ones: Henry: My neck wasn't the only place she put her mouth.
Fav Blood Book: Each of them was my fav for different reasons, like for getting to know Henry, or seeing intoerplay between Mike and Henry, but I guess my overall fav is the first, Blood Price

Your result for What Your Taste in Art Says About You Test ...
Extroverted, Progressive, and Intelligent
2 Cubist, -5 Islamic, -3 Ukiyo-e, -21 Impressionist, -2 Abstract and -6 Renaissance!
Cubism was a 20th century avant-garde movement, pioneered by Pablo Picasso and Georges Braque. It revolutionized European art and inspired changes in music and literature. The first branch of cubism, known as Analytic Cubism. It was both radical and influential as a short but highly significant art movement between 1908 and 1911 mainly in France. In its second phase, Synthetic Cubism, (using synthetic materials in the art) the movement spread and remained vital until around 1919.
People that chose Cubist paintings as their favorite art form tend to be very individualized people. They are more extroverted and less afraid of speaking their opinions then other people. They tend to be progressive and are very forward thinking. As the cubist painting is like looking into a shattered mirror where you can see different angles of the images, the people that prefer these paintings like looking at all angles of a problem. These people are intelligent and they are the transformers of our generation. They look beyond what is seen into what things could become. They are ready to leave the ideas of the past behind and look at what the future has to offer.

i_will_dare_89 who took it from [Unknown site tag]blood_ecstasy
The problem with LJ: we all think we are so close, but really, we know nothing about each other. So I want you to ask me something you think you should know about me. Something that should be obvious, but you have no idea about. Ask away. Then post this in your LJ and find out what people don't know about you!
This seems particularly pertinent to me this month, because I had a LJ 'friend' just disappear. Deleted and purged their journal. No notice. Just gone. Not completely unexpected, and thankfully I don't have to be paranoid, I know it had nothing to do with me, but saddening.

Letter meme
Sep. 20th, 2008 11:47 pmLetter Meme
Got my letter " E " fromvitch36 , who had gotten "J" and was feeling a little vengeful.
Must think of 5 characters whose names start with E.
With that sort of Evil Challenge, I had to show her up, so:
The Elohim –– Maybe this doesn't count, since it's a group of characters.
Elmer –– Any friend of Bugs is a friend of mine!
Elmo (Sesame St.) –– He was my favorite way before he got popular.
Electra (Greek myth) –– Hey, any girl who can kill the sister, and have a complex and a super heroine named after her...
Emma Woodhouse –– (Jane Austen) Well, it was supposed to be funny.
Ethan Brand (Hawthorn) –– Another one that English teacher ruined for me
Elmer Gantry (Sinclair) –– now there's a crafty, lusty man with the ability to always land on his feet
Elsie the Cow (spokes-cow for Elmer’s glue) –– I never ate glue, but Elsie was there for me, all through elementary school
Elmer the Patchwork Elephant (series of kid books by David McKee) –– honestly, I only know these by reputation. Other moms seemed to just love them, but I preferred to read the boys stories I'd been read.
Eragon the Dragon (Christopher Paolini) –– a book I keep picking up and trying to read, and stopping halfway through. I honestly do not understand its popularity.
The Easter Bunny –– A Bunny! And he brings Chocolate! All win!
Ask me for a letter, I dare you.
