hawkwing_lbThe sun shines, early blackberries are dark as sin and twice as juicy, the tide is high, the beach is clean, and I don't know why I'm sitting at my computer.
1. What is the soundtrack for this LJ?
Lately? Radio Paradise, Thea Gilmore, Joan Osborne, Damien Rice, Greenday, Nirvana, Evanescence, sea chanteys and trad.
2. What's bothering you right now?
My perpetual broke-ness, the damn book I'm trying to write, the emotional and physical health of the people I love, the growing marsh in our tiny back garden. You know, stuff.
3. Do you close the door when you are sleeping?
Yes.
4. What is in your wallet?
Old train tickets, expired and current student and promotional cards, ATM cards, library cards, bits of paper with important stuff written on it, a train timetable, my Open Water Diver card. About two quid in small change, and a receipt from the local Credit Union.
5. Wallpaper on your computer's desktop?
On the PC, it's Viggo Mortensen as Aragorn in The Two Towers. The laptop is Liv Tyler as Arwen from the same film.
6. Background on your cell phone?
Default.
7. Next time you will kiss someone?
Dunno. Probably not soon.
8. Where was your default picture taken?
I dunno. I stole it from![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)

9. Eyes:
What about them?
10. Life:
Is far too short for everything I want to do with it.

Writing, karate training, maybe swimming if the sun shines.

Yellow t-shirt, camo pattern combat trous.
14. Who was the last person to send you a text message?
The parental unit.
15. If you could have one thing right now what would it be?
A world responding responsibly to global warming and climate change. Failing that, give me thirty million euro and let me build my own nuclear bunker hideaway.
Yeah, not going to happen.
16. Listening to?
Greenday, 'Jesus of Suburbia'.
17. Have you ever kissed anyone named Patty?
Well, I have a great-aunt of that name and vaguely remember giving her the odd peck on the cheek. Otherwise? Not that I recall.

Purple grapes from Egypt - the flame variety.

Depends.

Less easily than a lot of my fellow country-men and -women. But leave me out long enough and I'll come up red, all right.
25. Have you ever been gambling?
Well, I don't bet, if that's what you mean.
26. What's something you wish you could understand better?
Physics. People. Biochemisty. The weather.
27. What did you do last weekend?
Um. Lots?
Accompanied the parental unit to look at used cars. Read books. Went to town, ate out, walked up to Christchurch Cathedral, marvelled at the number of foreign tourists who don't carry umbrellas. That kind of thing.
28. Who do you miss?
Many people who are still living but who due to circumstance I'll likely never see again.

My endocrinologist.
39. Do you like someone right now?
I like many people.
40. What do you wear more, slacks, jeans, or sweatpants?
There is no option for army surplus combats with multiple pockets? I am very disappointed.

Water, fruit juice, Coca-Cola.

In this country, we call it an 'arse', and nobody slaps mine.
46. Where was the last place you went?
The beach.
47. What's on your mind right now?
The book, sunshine, the end of the world, the cat, finding work, doing laundry, a thousand and one other things and none of them restful. I should probably do something about that.
48. Have you cried recently?
Not for any good reason.
49. When you think of your crush, who is it?
I have a crush?
See under social life, lack thereof.
50. Is taking a shower a daily habit?
If I want a working brain.
