Warning, I'm happy and therefore the contents of this may be disturbing to some people :)
1. What's your name: Which one? Michelle Hart, M'cachessilnath and Princess Cassia are the main three.
2. What do you wish your name was, instead: Michelle is just fine :)
3. How are you: A little sleepy, but quite happy.
4. Would you ever eat sushi? Yes, definitely - but my parents won't let me 'cos they get grossed out at the idea of eating raw stuff.
5. Would you ever eat sushi off a naked body? Yeah, whose? (i.e. mine or some theoretical future husband's? sure. anyone else? no.)
6. Have you considered homosexuality? Yes. considered, and rejected. quite thoroughly enough, thankyouverymuch.
7. What's your sexual preference? None. (As in, no sex please.)
8. What were you in a past life? Super Michelle, the joint ruler of Bearaboutia. (With Thomas the Tank Engine.)
9. I punch you. Quick, what do you do? Look hurt. I've been practicing.
10. When confronted with Britney Spears, you...? Walk straight on by, fairly quickly, so as not to attract attention but to avoid the crowds of screaming fans who will probably be in the vicinity soonish.
11. What's your favorite coffee? Those coffee creams in boxes of Roses chocolates (do they still do those? I haven't had one for years...)
12. What's your political perspective? All the current political parties are bad in some way or the other. Electorial democracy as it is generally practiced doesn't really work, and yes, I *do* have something better to replace it with. Locally, our Labour MP is pretty damn good, shame about the party.
13. Are you my Angel? My wings aren't golden yet, and my halo appears to be late. Sorry.
14. Do you consider yourself a poet? No, but I write way too much poetry anyway :)
15. What do you wanna be when you grow up? A Christian. Me (and I'd like to work out who that is).
16. There's a naked man in your living room. What do you do? Not go into the living room. Wait for someone else to deal with the problem.
17. How stupid do you think you are? Utterly and irredeamably.
18. How stupid do other people think you are? ((I originally answered this for 'how stupid do you think other people are)) People seem to like to try and convince me I'm not stupid.
19. Who the hell do you think you are? Nobody.
20. Is the Wonderbra good or bad? Neither.
21. If you could levitate, who would you scare first? No-one; it'd scare my mother too much if she ever found out.
22. What's your favorite fruit? Apricots. Specifically, dried apricots. (Non-dried apricots are nasty on account of being fluffy. I have this general objection to eating fluffy food. Candyfloss doesn't count 'cos it melts.)
23. Can you feel the love tonight? Yes :) There was the most beautiful deep blue sky as I walked to the station from school, and I set out feeling afraid and miserable, and I got to the station feeling happily restored.
24. On a nude beach, you would... Realise I was lost and leave quickly.
25. Make up a story with yourself, a bridge, and a bunny: I could, but it'd take about half an hour, drown out the rest of the survey, and not be worth it. Maybe later.
26. What do you think about contemporary art? It's amusing, and entertainment is the purpose of art, so...
27. Do you like being naked? No. I don't like humans, aesthetically speaking. Clothes make people look much better, and people includes me.
28. If we had proof god didn't exist, what would happen? Someone would have been lying, or using a logical construct with a fallacy in it anyhow.
29. Do you enjoy cheeze whiz? Will someone explain what it is?
30. What's your position on virginity? *blinks* What is this question meant to mean?
31. On civil unions: Firstly - the commitment is the important bit, and I tend to not like legal thingamies having anything to say about religious stuff, because it can so easily be turned against us. Secondly - it's kinda nice to get ppl in church for weddings, but normally the oppertunity isn't properly used for fear of offending people.
32. On RuPaul: Uh... what?
33. On mosquito bites: Mosquitos have gotta be fed somehow...
34. On bad sitcoms: They fill in the TV slots, and give us something to laugh at when we're way too ill to do anything sensible.
35. On Fran Drescher: Mm, are these people American or summat?
36. Are you left handed or right handed? Right-handed.
37. Are you smart? If this means 'Am I good at passing exams?' the the answer is 'yes'.
38. What's your middle name? I actually, genuinely, don't have one. My parents both hated theirs so much they didn't want to lumber me with one, and they had trouble thinking of *one* name.
39. How many personalities do you have? Mm. I recognise different numbers of sub-personalities for different purposes.
40. How many piercing do you have? None. Putting holes in myself doesn't appeal, except when I'm *really* down.
41. What was your first word? I've been led to believe it was 'flower', after all the usual 'mama' and 'papa' half-word-noises. But I'm not sure I actually believe this.
42. Are you superstitious? I was just thinking how superstitious I actually am, for some definitions of that. I mean, I have quite a thing about the number 125 - I randomly get the yays when it appears for no good reason. And I do love spotting coincidences, and times like 11:11, and stuff. But generally I thank God for how beautiful His world is when I notice such things :)
43. Do you read your horoscope? I quite deliberately don't even know what my star sign is.
44. Do you believe in that stuff? Uh, no.
45. Can you do a cartwheel? I like eating chocolate&mallow Wagon Wheels, does that count? (i.e. no.)
46. Do you have contact lenses? Eeek, nonono, they're horrible things and I would never have the nerve to do that to my eyes. I wear glasses :)
47. Do you have a retainer or braces? I have an ickle bit of wire that looks like a staple between my two front teeth, hidden away behind them up near the gum, which stops my front teeth sliding out of position *again*.
48. Can you drive? No. The one time I gave it a go, I was told that I was driving a car as if I was wrestling a crocodile. This did not inspire confidence :)
49. Do you snore? When I have a cold, yes. When I'm particularly congested, yes. Other times, I just sing.
50. Do you drool in your sleep? Not unless I have a really bad cold, as far as I'm aware.
51.Do you lick your envelopes or use a sponge? I use envelopes that have those peel-off strips and sticky that you don't need to dampen. And the stamps have proper adhesive now too.
52. Do you keep a journal? Uh, yes. And there's a file called 'eep' on my Psion that does the rest of the diary job.
53. Do you like onions? Not really, although I no longer have an intense hatred of them as I once did.
54. Do you like cotton candy? Yay, candyfloss! Sugar and colourings, mm mm!
55. What instruments can you play? Musical instruments? *laughs*
56. Do you like to dance? Yes, I do like to dance :) well... EnthusiasticArmWavingDancing, as someone once called it, anyway.
57. Do you like to sing? Yes, I love to sing. Unfortunately, no-one else likes me any more if I do so too loudly :)
58. Are you any good at it? Uh, no.
59. Do you like to talk on the phone? No, although again, I've kinda gotten over my absolute terror of it. I prefer talkers - you can scroll back and check what you've said and what they've said!
60. Do you like where you live? Yes. It's moderately pretty, the house is nice, and I have a little computer room where no-one bothers me...
61. Are you organized? No, I'm entirely hopeless. I do love tidying interesting things, like old papers or computer files, but it takes way too long for me to do it often, and I can never remember any meetingy type things.
62. Do you sleep with socks on? No. All my RPG characters tend to sleep fully-dressed, tho, for some obscure reason.
63. Are you shy? Yes, very, but only to a certain class of total strangers - people in shops, in particular.
64. Do you talk to yourself? You mean, some people don't? How do they ever think anything through?
65. Are you a morning person? No. I used to be, but not any more.
65a. Are you a mourning person? Not particularly.
66. Are you a virgin? Yup.
67. Are you proud of that? Yup.
68. Do you believe in reincarnation? Nope.

72. How old do you wish you were? 16 will do just fine. 18 or 7 would also do.
73. What will you name your daughter? Probably something starting in 'Y'.
74. Son? David or Daniel. I don't know why, but my first male characters in a RPG/story (with real names) generally get one of these. And I wouldn't inflict a weird name on a son, 'cos for some reason I think it'd be worse for a guy to have a weird name than a girl.
75. Have you ever thought you were gonna die? Um, yes, in fact I'm pretty certain of this one.
76. Where do you wanna go? Heaven.

53: Have a crush on someone? I've had crushes on ppl. Although in the majority of cases this was because I felt I ought to.
