[This is the 2nd time I’ve had to post this. Fortunately, as soon as the server started taking a bit long to load after I clicked “Publish,” I quickly highlighted the whole thing and did a “copy”. Sure enough, I got an error message about how the page cannot be found and my entire entry was lost. Of course that would happen. That’s the direction of my day. I’ll probably get in a car accident later.]
I think Thomas tags “everybody in [his] blog family” just to check up on who’s still reading his blog. But because I did this morning, I find that I’m tagged, so here’s the result of what he tagged me with (warning, I’m not pukey sweet or cute today, I’m bitter as hell, so brace yourself cuz I’m not censoring this):
TELL ME ABOUT YOURSELF – The Survey

Goal You Would Like To Achieve This Year: make it better than last year while looking the way I did last year
Your Most Overused Phrase On an instant messenger: “dude”, I guess
Thoughts First Waking Up: *gasp* Was that another nightmare? I still feel it! *cry* (the past week)

Your Bedtime: 12:30a
Your Most Missed Memory: having someone concerned enough about me to check up on me
Pepsi or Coke: I’m cutting chemicals out of my diet whenever possible. (It works — 2 weeks of this and the cravings subside AND I’ve lost weight w/o increasing exercise)

Do you Smoke: I’m smokin’ today. I usually try to look knife-sharp when I’m experiencing low self-esteem. Too bad I didn’t have time to curl my hair, too.
Do you Swear: when I’m upset, my sputterings are colored appropriately.
Do you Sing: if the mood strikes and I’m able to separate my lips from their downward pout
Do you Shower Daily: a couple times a day (after gym sessions and before bed)
Have you Been in Love: the hell is Love? Oh, that thing I feel for other people when I prioritize them above myself, while these people make empty claims that they also feel it for me but always put me last? Yeah, I guess I have “been in Love”
Do you want to go to College: I don’t want to go back into college formally, but I’d like to keep taking some classes here and there for my personal edification
Do you want to get Married: depends on who I’m hypothetically to be married to. Certain men I have dated, you’d have to cut a slit in my abdomen, pull out loops of my instestine and tie the guy to the other end to make me stand next to him at an altar.
Do you believe in yourself: usually.
Do you get Motion Sickness: only if I’m looking down and/or reading in a moving car.

Are you a Health Freak: that’s one of my goals.
Do you get along with your Parents: usually. it’s best when they can be taken in short spurts.
Do you like Thunderstorms: yes. Not the wimpy misty rain that just dirties my car, but a real violent downpour where I’d stand outside for 30 seconds and my headlights blind the world.

Ever Shoplifted: yeah, I was forced to; a tiny item was stuffed down the front of my shirt right before we were about to leave and I couldn’t take it out in front of the store clerk, so I walked out with it. Obviously it was something I had never forgotten, even tho it’d been 23 years. It was horrible.
How do you want to Die: who spends time planning/fantasizing about this?!
What do you want to be when you Grow Up: Happy (this is Thomas’s answer, and I like it, impossibly high standards and all)
