Copy-catting Cindy (again)

1. I have pale blue eyes.
2. The 'teacher' who made the most impression on me was my gov't professor in my first college course ever. He was a staunch Rep. and I'd stay after class discussing politics, media, religion and society with him. He affected me so much I registered originally as a Rep. and didn't change it for two years.
3. Religion: Ukrianian Catholic
4. Pet peeve: Biases, especially racial but often political too. I'll be friends with a racist or a bigot but mainly to study them with fascination as if they were a rare disease under a microscope.
5. I cried when...I lost my best friend. Twice.
6. I laughed hysterically when...Beth and I told our middle school principle a poltergeist had messed with the entertainment center during lunch.
7. I'd forgotten...that Beth and I accidentally shared a flight from Charlotte to Syr a few years ago, sat next to each other and annoyed an old man and the flight attendants.
8. I can't stand it when...a guy doesn't get the hint that I'm not going to date him.
9. My favorite book: the Bible. Close second: the Imitation of Christ.
10. Right now I'm...writing a rocker novel a la Rushdie and preparing a demo.
11. People probably wouldn't guess that...I've watched and listened to Rush Limbaugh since the early 90s and like him as much as I dislike him (almost.)
12. Others wouldn't guess that...to me, sex is a million times more upsetting than any illegal drug.
13. My favorite color as a kid was white, then purple. Now I don't have one.
14. In my lifetime I have obsessed over: a boy named Casey, horses, the Middle East, Quantum Leap, rock music, Athens, Southern Literature, academics, criminal justice, socialism, the Monkees, to name a few. I've only ever followed up drastically to one or two.
15. Something that still bothers me: the massacre in Waco, Texas.
