September 14th

 

Can you sum yourself (whether it be personality, life's goals, ethics, whatever) in 10 words or less?

Life's made of stories and I gotta catch 'em all.

 

How about little bottles of booze? Ya wanna? What kind?

I cook with booze, but I don't drink it.

 

What are your views on fudge and brownies? (Also, if you live in a warm place, where the fudge might melt, that'd be helpful to know. Or, if you're diabetic and fudge is death, that'd be useful to know, too.)

I can't eat a lot of sweet stuff, but I can eat a bit and share with my neighbors.

 

Also, what about mochi? Love it, hate it, baffled by it?

I'm not super fond.

I got tiny bits and pieces from a circle, but the one thing I'll probably end up wanting is the sugar skull soap.

 

Does anyone like kimchi?

Nope!

 

Would you be interested in a sample box(from somewhere like Birchbox or loosebutton)?

I don't use that much by way of beauty supplies

 

You have to place a Lab and Trading Post order. Right fuckin' now. No spending limits. What do you buy?

ALL THE THINGS. But I'd get the GC bottles I've wanted (Fairy Wine, Embalming Fluid, Morocco) and some SGA and Embalming Fluid soap and I'd get a pretty scent locket and pretty much any LE that even almost catches my eye.

 

Paintbox Soapworks - anything you're interested in, in general or from the latest update?

Pretty much their entire update looks lovely.

 

Do you guys have any sports that you follow obsessively? How about favorite teams and/or athletes

Not really.

 

How do you feel about notebooks/journals/stationery? Anything you need or particularly like?

I don't need any stationery, but that doesn't mean I don't love it!

 

Does confetti/glitter make you angry or fill you with glee?

Confetti, yes. Glitter's a bit harder to clean up.

 

Fabulous witches and witchees, perhaps you all could note of you've received MeiLin's goodies? Or if you want?

If you're a tea drinker, is there any specific tea you would like to receive, not just the kind/flavor but also the type/packing--i.e., tea bags, loose tea, compressed, etc?

I drink a lot of tea, but most of it is decaf. I drink a looot of rooibos.

 

September 11th

I'm not super into X-Men, but I do like Nightcrawler. I love Runaways, Nextwave, and Young Avengers, and my favorite Avengers comic is Marvel Adventures: Avengers. I love me some fluff, and I dislike the grimdark direction a lot of comics have taken of late. (Despite that, I adore Irredeemable.)

 

I used to be pretty into DC, but I'm still upset over the whole Oracle thing...so... I read a lot of BOOM! comics now instead. I also read Hellboy/BPRD and Fables.
