I do tend to leave a distinct impression on people, mostly because I'm a bit weird. (Unfortunately, I don't belong to the right tax bracket to warrant the appellation 'eccentric'). But since I've been away for a while, I thought this was a good time for us to get re-acquainted. Actually, the truth is that a week ago a 'friend' sent me this bloody tag and kept hounding me to fill it in (its amazing just how annoying the persistence of a single person could be) and so here are my answers to her questions:
1. Your first name? Shut up (or at least that's what I thought the first ten years of my life)
2. Were you named after anyone? 'Avery'. Hmmm, let me think. A brand of stationary?
3. What is the weather like right now? I live in Scotland. Enough said.
4. What are your favourite colours? Purple and Indigo. But my arch nemesis is Orange. I hate Orange!
5. What is your favourite type of food? East Indian (those people taste great!)
6. What was your favourite toy as a child? The microwave and toaster my parents gave me as bath toys.
7. When you were a child, were you very curious? Definitely! I kept trying to figure out why those nice people at social services took my parents away.
8. When you were a child, what did you want to be when you grew up? According to my IQ test scores I could've been a nuclear physicist, but there were too many good shows on TV.
9. What is your shoe size? Getting cheeky aren't we?
10. What are you listening to right now? I swear, you ask me what I'm wearing and I'm done with this survey.
11. Have you ever told a secret you swore not to tell? Nope. Not even when my old supervisor, Michael Harper (address: 112 JFK Drive, Riverdale, Bronx; social security number: 068-78-9806; wife's name: Colene Harper), told me that he contracted herpes from a prostitute. To this day, I still haven't told a single person about that! (Your secret's safe with me Mike. Prick!)
12. What class in high school do you think was totally useless? In my case, I would have to say sex-ed.
13. If you were another person, would YOU be friends with yourself? No, but I'd totally do me though.
14. What is your least favourite thing you like about yourself? I give too much. sigh
15. If you were a crayon, what colour would you be? Indigo. And my supreme goal would be to rid the world of all orange crayons. Did I mention I hate orange.
16. The first thing you notice about the opposite sex? Their personality and political views.
17. Do looks matter? Diane always said she loved me for my mind. Sniff sniff.
18. Do you use sarcasm a lot? Me? Sarcastic?
19. What are your (acceptable) nicknames? 'Oh Great One' and 'My Lord'
20. Does being up high make you anxious? I've never been afraid of heights, but weights totally freak me out!
21. When did you last cry? The day I learned that Pamela Anderson contracted Hepatitis.
22. Last person you talked to on the phone? My therapist. And if you don't know why, re-read this post.
23. Do you like the person who sent this to you? See answer to question 13. (Which, incidentally, is pretty much how I feel about most people I meet.)

Orange is one of my favorite colors.
*runs for cover*
Lizza,
Please come collect your things. We're over!
I've done myself tons of times. Last night, I screamed out the wrong name. I'm still pissed.
