Creating my future, one miracle at a time

Another question list.  Obviously I'm on an addiction now.  i_will_dare_89 sucked me into this one.  Oh, and my answers are way more long-winded than anyone else's I've seen.

Hey!  Aren’t the first three those things you’re never supposed to reveal, so the pedophile stalkers don’t come after you?  Oh! I suppose I’m SO not in the right age group, and also, I own a gun or two, and live in the Old South, where “He needed killing,”  is still a valid defense.

Name:  Sherron 0.  (never would have guessed that, I bet!)
2. Birthday: 8/24/19 some year before 87.  (thus at least 21, and no longer obligated to tell)
3. Where do you live: Madison, AL
4: What are you studying/What are you working as: I’m between careers.  Just finished homeschooling the boys, now looking around for inspiration for the next 40 years/.
5. What makes you happy:  Besides watching BT?Lots of things.  I’m easy.  A good book and time to read it, a cup of coffee done right, kittens, sex, buttercups, getting to occasionally see snow and know that it’ll be gone by afternoon, buying new toys, new cars, see?  Lots of stuff
6. What are you listening to now/have listened to last: Matchbox 20, Mad Season album
7. What is particularly good/bad about my LJ:  I like it. I’m wild about the title.
8. An interesting fact about you:  Only one? Geez.  My boys were born on opposite sides of the country.  Mat, in Norfolk, VA, within sight of the Atlantic.  Thomas, Sacramento, CA, about 90 miles from the Pacific.  And yes, that means I travelled cross country six months pregnant, and back to California with a teething 10 month old.  You really haven’t tested your marriage (or your sanity) until you’ve spent close to a week in a car with just the 3 of you and miles of desert to look forward to.
9. Are you in love/have a crush at the moment:  The exquisite Henry Fitzroy, Vampire, prince, of course.  He displaced Qui Gon Ginn in my heart the moment I saw the first Blood Ties.
10. Favorite place to be: in bed with Beloved, or wrapped up in a good fiction
11. Favorite lyric: “She just can’t be chained, to a life where nothing’s gained, or nothing’s lost.” from Ruby Tuesday by the Stones
12. Best time of the year: Spring, definitely.  When the weeping willows begin to turn green, I know I’m going to live again.  Crocuses, forsythia, buttercups, tulips, irises. In that order, waking me up again, helping me forgive [insert deity or universe or whatever] for winter.
13. Weirdest food you like: chicken livers and mustard greens

RECOMMEND
1. A film: Gone with the Wind
2. A book:  Atlas Shrugged
3. A song: U2’s “Running to Stand Still”  from Joshua Tree
4: A band: The Grateful Dead.  Y’all just don’t know what you missed

FANDOM
1. Favorite Fandom: Blood Ties
OTP/OT3:  I like them all, but I’d really like to see someone try Vicki/Mike, the way Tanya had it come out.  For just sex, Henry/Mike is my fav to read, but “One true pairing”? No way.  I’m not sure there is one.
3. Icon/Fic Journal (so I can join): not that into icons -- too small.

PLUS
1. One thing you like about me:
2. Two things you like about yourself:  1. My active, creative, educated brain  2. My inconsistency
3. Put this in your lj so I can tell you what I think of you? Sure.

This thoughtful little exercise was brought to me by phantomminuet .  (And my apologies to mercuryblue144, who tagged me for an equally interesting but longer game, which I promise to get to.)
