Write down what it says: <\/p>\n<p>&#8211; On the June day in 1941 that marked the beginning of Hitler&#8217;s assault on Russia, Churchill said with a smile, &#8216;If Hitler invaded Hell, I would at least make a favorable reference to the Devil in the House of Commons.&#8217;<br \/>\n<i\/>from Crimes and Mercies: the fate of german civilians under allied occupation, 1944-1950<\/i><\/p>\n<p>2: Stretch your left arm out as far as you can. What do you touch first?: <\/p>\n<p>&#8211; a raspberry yogurt container, lidless, and half full of brass chainlinks<\/p>\n<p>3: What is the last thing you watched on TV?: <\/p>\n<p>&#8211; Gearge Romeros <u>Dawn of the Dead<\/u><\/p>\n<p>4: WITHOUT LOOKING, guess what the time is: <\/p>\n<p>&#8211; 1:16<\/p>\n<p>5: Now look at the clock, what is the actual time?: <\/p>\n<p>&#8211; 1:20<\/p>\n<p>6: With the exception of the computer, what can you hear?: <\/p>\n<p>-Adrian in the kitchen. He is precisely cutting vegetables. There is also music. A synthetic beat with a double time overdub of snare. The female vocals are managing to convey scorn and desire. (I quite adore Snake River Conspiracy).<\/p>\n<p>7: When did you last step outside? What were you doing?: <\/p>\n<p>&#8211; I went with Adrian and Jeff and his friend whose name I don&#8217;t recall to the re-make of Dawn of the Dead. After that, we walked them up the alley to the Skytrain and back.<\/p>\n<p>8: What are you wearing?: <\/p>\n<p>&#8211; Violet silks, two shirts of it. One long sleeved and around my waist, the other I&#8217;ve half buttoned and tied at the top of my belly. It hasn&#8217;t sleeves. With it are brushed black cotton pants with silver buttons up the front instead of a zipper. There is a hole in the back on my right hand side in a slightly revealing position. UNderneath I&#8217;ve a black bra and tiny scarlet panties with a pad of folded felt for the blood. Almost not enough fabric to be panties, but&#8230; <\/p>\n<p>10: Did you dream last night? <\/p>\n<p>&#8211; like every night<\/p>\n<p>11: When did you last laugh? <\/p>\n<p>&#8211; only a moment ago. I laugh frequently.<\/p>\n<p>12: What is on the walls of the room you are in?: <\/p>\n<p>-uninteresting cream coloured paint.<\/p>\n<p>13: Seen anything weird lately?: <\/p>\n<p>&#8211; I don&#8217;t believe I can answer that question as my seeing something I considered wierd would be unlikely.<\/p>\n<p>14: What do you think of this quiz?: <\/p>\n<p>&#8211; nothing so far<\/p>\n<p>15: What is the last film you saw?: <\/p>\n<p>&#8211; I am choosing here to separate film from movie and instead of repeating the litany of the zombie, I will claim Requiem for a Dream as my last seen film. <\/p>\n<p>16: If you became a multi-millionaire overnight, what would you buy first?: <\/p>\n<p>&#8211; myself out of debt from my friends.<\/p>\n<p>17: Tell me something about you that I don&#8217;t know: <\/p>\n<p>&#8211; not knowing who was the original author of this, I presume I could safely assume you know nothing of me. Instead of being pedantic and useless though, I will volunteer that I love the colour of Adrians eyes. They are blue like electricity and painful memories. His golden lashes frame them in a sweet gold. I think of them as things apart from him almost, because I believe almost they could fly, but he cannot.<\/p>\n<p>18: If you could change one thing about the world, regardless of guilt or politics, what would you do?: <\/p>\n<p>&#8211; I would create a world without irrational fear. <\/p>\n<p>19: Do you like to dance?: <\/p>\n<p>&#8211; as much as possible, anywhere permissable. And sometimes not so much.<\/p>\n<p>20: 20. George Bush: is he a power-crazy nutcase or some one who is finally doing something that has needed to be done for years?<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; utterly a tool. I wouldn&#8217;t say nutcase, but I would say pathetic and stupid. Killing him would create a martyr yet I don&#8217;t think having him in charge for the next four year haul would lead to anything but the death of america.<\/p>\n<p>21: Imagine your first child is a girl, what do you call her?: <\/p>\n<p>&#8211; hah. Imagine I had a child.<\/p>\n<p>21: Imagine your first child is a boy, what do you call him?: <\/p>\n<p>&#8211; See above.<\/p>\n<p>(though admittedly, I would be sure to name them partly after a Love)<\/p>\n<p>22: Would you ever consider living abroad?: <\/p>\n<p>&#8211; it&#8217;s the only thing I&#8217;ve ever truly wanted<\/p>\n<p>If I were a month I would be: May<\/p>\n<p>If I were a day of the week I would be: Friday<\/p>\n<p>If I were a time of day I would be: Sunset<\/p>\n<p>If I were a planet I would be: Luna<\/p>\n<p>If I were a sea animal I would be: an Otter<\/p>\n<p>If I were a direction I would be: East<\/p>\n<p>If I were a piece of furniture I would be: Chaise Lounge<\/p>\n<p>If I were a historical figure I would be: One Who Has Yet to Live<\/p>\n<p>If I were a liquid I would be: Mercury<\/p>\n<p>If I were a mythical creature, I would be: the Victim, soley by dint of my femaleness<\/p>\n<p>If I were a musical instrument, I would be: Theramin<\/p>\n<p>If I were an animal, I would be: Feline<\/p>\n<p>If I were a color, I would be: Darkest Purple<\/p>\n<p>If I were an emotion, I would be: Apathy<\/p>\n<p>If I were a vegetable, I would be: Eggplant<\/p>\n<p>If I were a sound, I would be: Singing<\/p>\n<p>If I were an element, I would be: Fire<\/p>\n<p>If I were a car, I would be: Custom<\/p>\n<p>If I were a song, I would be: Haunting<\/p>\n<p>If I were a movie, I would be directed by: someone European<\/p>\n<p>If I were a book, I would be written by: Tanith Lee<\/p>\n<p>If I were a food, I would be: Passionfruit Gelati<\/p>\n<p>If I were a place, I would be: the Essence of Vast City<\/p>\n<p>If I were a material, I would be: Silk<\/p>\n<p>If I were a taste, I would be: Bittersweet<\/p>\n<p>If I were a scent, I would be: Pleasant, but unplacable<\/p>\n<p>If I were a religion, I would be: Unstoppable<\/p>\n<p>If I were a word, I would be: Aubergine<\/p>\n<p>If I were an object, I would be: Art<\/p>\n<p>If I were a body part I would be: the Head<\/p>\n<p>If I were a facial expression I would be: Wry<\/p>\n<p>If I were a subject in school I would be: Arts in Technology<\/p>\n<p>If I were a cartoon character I would be: Energetic<\/p>\n<p>If I were a shape I would be: Hourglass<\/p>\n<p>If I were a number I would be: 22<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-357","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-uncategorized"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/foxtongue.com\/dreampepper\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/357","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/foxtongue.com\/dreampepper\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/foxtongue.com\/dreampepper\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/foxtongue.com\/dreampepper\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/foxtongue.com\/dreampepper\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=357"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/foxtongue.com\/dreampepper\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/357\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/foxtongue.com\/dreampepper\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=357"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/foxtongue.com\/dreampepper\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=357"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/foxtongue.com\/dreampepper\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=357"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
