Part One

 

Cthulhu: yay or nay?

Nay, though I am not opposed to reading some Lovecraft!

 

Is there something that you wish you could do, but you keep putting it off?

Graduate college! Though this is less "putting it off" and more "taking it slowly." Though I DO need to stop putting off homework until it is late! Because if I have not graduated in a year, I will be a sad panda.

 

Put your current mp3player on shuffle, list the first 10 songs:

Jimi Hendrix - Wind Cries Mary

The Velvet Underground - I Found a Reason

Metric - Calculation Theme

T-Rex - Left Hand Luke (Acoustic Demo)

Cat Power - Evolution

Siobhan Donaghy - Revolution in Me

Panda Bear - Surfer's Hymn

The Beatles - Sun King

The Beach Boys - Merry Christmas, Baby (I LOVE their Christmas album! And Ella Fitzgerald's Christmas album! And... Christina Aguilera's Christmas album.)

Santigold - Starstruck

 

Witchee, have you made (or are you planning to make) any Lab or Trading post orders soon? And if you did (or plan to), you should share what you're getting

I think this was in the answer for the first question!

 

Do you have any interest in rocks? With geologic significance!

Not really - I get enough of that from my parents.

 

If your witch were to knit you a scarf/shawl/cowl, which would you prefer, and what features would you want? Would you prefer something light and drape-y or thick and warm? What kind of colors would you prefer? Do you have any fiber allergies or preferences?

A skinny, long scarf, more light and drapey (because it doesn't get super-cold in Texas!). Actually upon thinking, I'd like green & gold for the Dallas Stars, because hockey games are the main place where my cold-weather clothes get worn!

 

Do you like/own/wear/want fairy wings or something of the like?

Nope.

 

How do you feel about terrariums?

I adore them, but I think anything that requires ANY amount of watering will die a slow, horrible death in my care. We do have one plant that requires watering once a week, and that poor thing only survives because I have an alarm set on my phone.

 

Are you scientifically curious and/or process-oriented? Would you like a project-type gift that allowed you do do something like make soap from scratch, take and (nontoxic-ly) develop photographs using a pinhole camera, use plant dyes on yarn or fabric, etc.?

I don't have the time for something like this right now!

 

Witchee, would you like a gently used BPAL tshirt?

Sure! I have been wanting Falling Leaf Moon, and I have a Nice tshirt from the last Naughty or Nice inquisition. Generally I don't really like black, but if it's cool enough maybe I will?

 

Do you like charm bracelets? If you had a bracelet, what sort of charms would you want on it? Favorite hobbies, symbols, whatever?

YES! I had a charm bracelet in elementary/middle/HS but took it off one time in high school and left it in a desk, and never saw it again. I had mostly James Avery charms on it, I think, and I like charms that have to do with my current and past hobbies and interests - ballet/tap/jazz dance, cats, bunnies, politics (do they have political charms), scifi, etc! I may have a bracelet that I could put charms on. If I don't, I could easily get one.

 

What's your favorite horror movie?

Does Young Frankenstein count? No? Then I guess The Birds - it's really scary!

 

If you could choose a Smack, what would it have in it?

Red Woods, Sugared Roses, Vanilla Bean

 

What's 'your' song/your theme song?

Um, I don't know about a single theme song, but these are ones I identify with for some reason or another (more like a theme playlist):

Florence & The Machine - Rabbit Heart (Raise It Up) (if I ever got a word tattoo, it would probably be some lyrics from this song)

Wolf Parade - I'll Believe in Anything (I guess if I had to pick a theme song, maybe this would be it? Maaaybeeeee?)

Yeah Yeah Yeahs - Phenomena (this is my "I'm being awesome!" song)

Battles - Leyendecker (my scifi dance club song!)

The Beatles - I'm So Tired (ahahahha if I could just have this playing on loop until about 2 pm every day, that would be perfect)

Tom McRae - For the Restless

Blitzen Trapper - Scifi Kid (the chorus is "I'm just a scifi kid like you." COME ON.)

Stevie Wonder - Uptight (this song never fails to make me feel happy)

Sunset Rubdown - Shut Up I Am Dreaming (pretty!)

Tom Waits - Hoist that Rag (my fight song)

Radiohead - You and Whose Army (my other fight song, wow I have depressing fight songs)

Vienna Teng - Hope on Fire (ANOTHER fight song. I like having fight songs.)

The Velvet Underground - Sunday Morning (heart heart heart! Favorite ever!)

Jay-Z - 99 Problems (for the lols?)

 

Is there a quote (or lyric or part of a poem) that really resonates with you or is your favorite?

Florence & The Machine - Rabbit Heart

Florence & The Machine - Howl - the most accurate description of the way I experience love that I've ever come across. Though I also really love She and Him's "Sweet Darlin'" for the adorableness!

AC Newman - Better Than Most - particularly the lyrics "walking wounded through the stars tonight/we wander the plains pointing pistols at the dawn"

JJ Cale - Don't Go to Strangers - It's one of the most hauntingly beautiful songs I've ever heard, and the lyrics are decent too.

Vienna Teng - Blue Caravan - "Blue, blue caravan, winding down to the valley of lights, my true love is a man who would hold me for ten thousand nights... Oh my blue, blue caravan, the highway is my great wall, and my true love is a man who never existed at all."

 

Errr, really I just like Florence & The Machine's lyrics it seems! ALSO ALL DAVID BOWIE.

 

I put up quotes I love in my office and studio to get me going, They range from goofy to sarcastic to inspirational... Are you interested in a hand painted quote? Do you have one in mind, or a topic in mind?

Sure! Maybe with lyrics from one of those songs?

 

What constitutes ultimate luxury to you? (go crazy!)

Living in a large, Georgian-style mansion with a live-in maid and cook, an on-call hairstylist (lord knows I can't do my own hair), furniture that is both beautiful AND comfortable, and the time to nestle down in bed with my fiance and our pets and some good books.

 

How did you dress up for your last party or compulsory-formal-dress occasion?

This isn't my favorite picture, but it shows the shoes! Dress is Liberty of London for Target, and the shoes are from Shoedazzle. I ADORE Liberty of London. Such fun patterns! Also that is my manthingperson.

 

If you're interested in a handmade pouch/cover for an item you have (phones, tablets, books, keys, kettles...), what would your ideal pouch/cover have? Design, material, additional functionality/features like pockets or lights or secret hidey-holes?

 

Would you like a photo collage based around your interests/favorite colors/favorite themes?

Um, I'm not sure what is meant by photo collage. If it's small, then yes! If it's big, then no.

 

If you're crafty, are you interested in spoonfeather? And if so, what things there delight your eyes?

I do not know what this spoonfeather is.

 

What is your favorite word?

I'm a fan of "clutter." It sounds to me like a bunch of stuff falling on the floor, which is sort of what clutter is like. Also, "graceless." Umm, those are if we're going by the way it sounds.

 

What are the feelings on arm warmers? Color, style, texture, length?

I have never owned any before but my arms always get cold!

 

Do you like tarts? tealights? jar candles? votives?

No on all of those - those are more the fiance's thing.

 

So, are there any online gaming witchees who covet purchasable in-game items or other gamer-y stuff? (yup, geek question)

Well, my feelings about the Sims franchise is that I MUST OWN ALL THE THINGS, but my computer with Sims 3 on it is not currently connected to the internet, due to there not being a hardline run to the room it's in and the wifi card not being able to pick up the signal. Though my laptop, which is at the same desk, can get wifi just fine. So I guess though there's stuff I do want, I don't know how I would get it to my computer until we have the contractor come out and run a cable from the other room to the office.

 

Anyone doing anything cool for Mabon (or the start of fall, if you aren't pagan?)

Well, this isn't cool, but I have seasonal affective disorder so every start of fall I get ragingly depressed. And stay that way until summer. But don't worry! I have had this well over half of my life and have found the correct combination of medication and therapy and stuff to make it manageable.

 

What is your favorite coffee blend at Starbucks? If you don't have one, what is your favorite roast of coffee?

I do not like coffee.

 

Is there anything you'd like from the Mütter Museum Store?

OMG CREEPY SCARY OMG HALP. (Though I would be interested in U.)

 

I just noticed that Cocoa Pink has 5 ml Perfume Atomizers. Yay or nay? Scents you would like? Scents you would NOT like?

I do not know of this Cocoa Pink.

 

what's your favorite kind of pizza?

Pepperoni & black olive ftw.

 

Who are your style/fashion icons? post pics if you want!

Oh gee, I don't know. I like how Kate Middleton dresses.

 

Are there any food items you're craving/aren't able to find around your area?

Not that I know of.

 

How do you feel about ethical animal fiber, i.e. wool and the like?

I am fine with both ethical and unethical animal products.

 

What about little wee creatures for your desk or mantel?

eeeeee cute!

 

Look down. What are you wearing, right now?

Pajamas - a Mickey Mouse shirt that my friend gave me for my 6th birthday, and some A&F navy striped pajama pants I've had since I was 15. Which makes my entire outfit at least a decade old.

 

Kerchiefs?

Sometimes we put them on the dog.

 

Would you be interested in regional jams, jellies, or other preserves?

Umm, I don't really ever use those things, except one time I bought bacon jam from the internet, and that was AWESOME.

 

Do you have any bedtime rituals? Is there any particular product you have to apply or a certain shirt you wear or an act you perform to get you in the "bedtime" mood?

Well, if by "bedtime mood" you mean going to sleep, then yes - I usually wash my face with either cold cream or Villainess Datura Slick (if I wash it with regular facewash before going to sleep it gets too dry, so I use that in the morning and oil or cold cream at night), put on Paula Begoun's 1% BHA gel, brush my hair, get into pajamas, make sure the bunny has enough hay/food/water and has been let out for the night (and, correspondingly, that all important papers and wires have been put onto high shelves so she can't get to them), check the computer one last time (usually while holding the bunny), then go do a running, flying leap onto my fiance in bed! And then read until I fall asleep.

 

Are you interested in today's/any recent Tee Fury shirts?

There are sometimes ones that I like, though I don't think I've bought any though. I have a couple of Shirt.Woot shirts though - for instance this one.

 

Princess Bride? Yay or nay?

YAY.

 

Is there any cheesy/non-cheesy Canadian stuff you'd be interested in?

Umm, one time my parents brought me these maple sugar candies in the shape of Canada leaves (maple leaves? you know, the one on the flag). They were delicious. Should I be eating them? No. BUT THEY ARE DELICIOUS.

 

Is there anything you're wanting from LPMP?

I do not know what LPMP is.

 

say you stumbled into Camp Half Blood (or whatever the Roman camp ends up being named <bounces in anticipation>), which god claims you?

I feel I identify most with Hestia or Hera, but of course those goddesses don't have demigod children! So probably Hermes or Athena, with a slight possibility of Apollo. It's funny, it's way easier to do this for other people! My brother would definitely be claimed by Hephaestus, my mother by Demeter, my father by Apollo.

 

What level of contact were you hoping for from your witch?

Any! If you do not contact me again until the end of the round package, that is okay. If you contact me every single day through the end of the round, that is also okay (though maybe a bit overwhelming, since I can't always run to thank you for the ecard in the thread immediately, and then I sit through classes/sports games/whatever feeling guilty that I haven't yet). Anything in between is also okay. Whatever you have the time and inclination for! I know just reading my answers to these questions probably takes up much of your SW time allotment.

 

Sooooo Witchees, have you ever taken that particular personality test? If so, are you an Analytical, a Driver, an Expressive or an Amiable?

It says I am Expressive. I don't know about that, I think maybe Analytical fits me better? But a lot of the things in the checkboxes for analytical are just not possible in my work environment. On Meyers-Briggs, I am right on the line between INTJ and ENTJ, and it can go either way depending on how I feel right then. How other people see me depends on whether they think I'm talking because I'm outgoing or know that I'm talking because I'm a nervous chatter.

 

If you had to decide what your stripper name was, what would it be?

Frisky Tyler.

*cries*

 

Babylon 5

I have never gotten into it (scifi blasphemy, I know!). I tried watching it on Hulu a couple of times but I never found it compelling enough to continue. I like pretty much every other major scifi tv show.

 

What's your favorite classic fairytale?

A FAVORITE? I have no idea. Pretty much everything from Grimm's! My fiance says I have horrible, terrible versions of fairy tales stuck in my head, but they're the real ones! I also love art for them - it's always so magical.

 

Stuff you've been meaning to do:

Study. Midterms are NOW and I should have finished all my readings, but I have not.

 

Colors! What are your favorite colors and what colors do you not like? Pictures and links, people!

Teal, turquoise, lavender, purple, silver, light/medium greys, lime green.

I don't particularly like yellow or red, I dislike brown, and I HATE taupe and beige.

 

What is something people are always surprised to learn about you?

People who don't know I'm obsessed with scifi are surprised to learn I'm OBSESSED WITH SCIFI. People who mainly interact with me in the scifi/nerdy realm are surprised to learn I'm obsessed with makeup and shoes and stuff like that.

 

Is anyone else afraid of or creepy out by dummies/puppets/Muppets/etc? Other things you're squicked/freaked by that's best left by the wayside?

Dummies, yes, but not the others. I'm terrified of Twinkies. I know, I know, it's a weird fear. BUT THEY'RE SCARY. I also hate chalkboards. It doesn't even have to be fingernails on chalkboards - chalk on chalkboards is bad enough!

 

Are there any local museums/attractions you keep never getting around to going to?

I want to go on dates with the fiance to the Nasher Sculpture Center (to sit in the skyspace, which is super romantic, imo) and the Arboretum, but he won't go until it's not a billion degrees.

 

It's the weekend, and you find yourself without a single chore or responsibility for a few hours. Right this very moment, what's the one thing you would do if you could do anything?

Sleep!

 

I love the characterization of an INTJ as a crackpot who doesn't give a damn what people think. Hahaha.

 

 

Would you be interested in the #occupywallstreet scent?

Oh yes.

 

Reveal?

I will be revealing to my witchee. I like reveals, but if my witch doesn't feel comfortable with it, I will live.

 

How do you feel about hemp? jewelry, soap, etc?

Not really into hemp.

 

Is there a magazine that you DON'T read because you can't find it near you, but wish you could?

No. ... If I couldn't find it near me, how would I know about it to want to read it?

 

oh, does anyone else do the good-luck-trinkets-on-your-person thing? i dunno if it really counts as supersticious, but i had a performance today, and i think over half of my jewelry and accoutrements are things that have been given to me or are representative of family and friends, and it's good luck for me to surround myself with that. in addition to my family, i could account for 6 forumites in my costuming.

 

I love the teeny tiny itty bitty ceramic good luck thingies you can get in Chinatown. I have a tiny pink cat that was supposed to bring me luck in love, and a tiny green owl that is supposed to bring me good fortune in work. They're super-cute, and I can be kind of superstitious sometimes.

 

reusable bags?

I have many, many reusable grocery bags. I could ALWAYS use more canvas tote bags though!

 

What kind of purse do you prefer? Leather, cloth? over the shoulder or crossbody, or something that can do either? Do you like bold bright prints with fun things, or monochrome, solid colours?

Leather, over the shoulder (or crossbody, though I haven't had one of those in ages), not too big (but big enough for wallet, hairbrush, paperback book, and random stuff), and in a solid, bright color (NOT YELLOW). I MUST have a pocket on the outside for my iphone and one for my ID card for school (it lets me into parking garages), and they must be easily accessible. It's always nice to have an outside pocket in which to shove random bits of paper people give me, or pens or whatever. Inside, there should be a zip pocket for feminine supplies, and then it's helpful to have pockets for pens or lipstick or whatever. That sounds crazy picky, haha. I use my purses for one to two years. I do not like purses with the brand name or sign splashed all over them. Like, little danglies on the zipper pulls, sure, I'll give you that. But anywhere else on the outside other than maybe a very small thing? No.

 

I like Fossil pretty much always (even their cloth purses - I used to only use Fossil cloth purses for a long time). My purse from last year was a purple Cole Haan. My current purse is a seafoam Adrienne Vittadini - and I will never be buying this brand again. The strap has broken and the leather has excessive wear & tear. I love the shape and color, but the quality leaves a lot to be desired. Usually I buy my purses at the Dillard's sale. I don't think I could stand to pay full price for one of those things.

 

Oh! I have been wanting one of those wristlet clutch things for a while. I don't go out dancing or whatever much really, but when I do, it's annoying to not have one of those cute little cute things to put my stuff in. I also need a new wallet.

 

julep maven monthly boxes:

I get them!

 

Like commercial socks?

I basically only wear the really fuzzy kind of socks. Any kind of fuzzy sock is okay with me.

 

What kind of bear is best?

Charmin bears. They look soooooo cuddly.

 

Is anyone interested in reading The Night Circus?

I am interested in reading all books, so yes.

 

I have a not-so-secret love for The Broship of the Rings. Are there any prints from her store you'd like?

OMG YES! From the store, I especially like "Faster, Merlin," "Come along, John," and the Gandalf + Space Gandalf ones.

 

Who here likes Stephanie Pui-Min Law's artwork?

I had never heard of it before, but I like it! I especially like her Virgo painting - finally something Virgo that I actually could see myself owning!

 

Do you drink wine?

Yes. But I think we have the wine covered, as my fiance belongs to a wine-of-the-month club... and it's like six bottles a month.

 

Witches, did you lament NOT getting one of the condom case/imp cases that got released with the courtesan series???

Nope, have no use for them.

 

You get a package in the mail containing 3 things you have really wanted more than anything else you've mentioned so far in this thread. (they are all reasonably priced of course! ~$20 or less apiece). What are they?

 

More than anything else I've mentioned so far? But I've tried so hard to mention EVERYTHING I could possibly want in the whole world! That's a hard one!

 

1. This teeny tiny felted bunny! Or else this slightly bigger felted bunny. They are SOOOOOOOOO cute. And brown, like Gwen! I just found them on Etsy today and omfg OBSESSED. There is also one of a bunny in a WAISTCOAT and TOPHAT. !!!!

 

2. This bunch of small sterling jump rings, in 20 ga 2.5mm. Probably only under $20 as long as the silver price stays down, ha!

 

3. The new Rick Riordan book for my kindle! It should be noted that I will probably buy this before next weekend if I don't already have it in my hot little hands by then, because I'm eager to read it! After that, Divergent by Veronica Roth is something I've been looking forward to reading but have just never bought for myself (probably for reasons like "all monies going to BPAL and switch witching!").

 

What are you drooling over from the Sock Dreams Halloween stuff?

The metallic leggings in silver or black. The fuzzy toe socks in any color. The sheer stripe thigh-highs in pink. Not from the Halloween update, I like the bamboo ribbed or bamboo diamond tights, and any of the leggings (I wear leggings a lot in cooler weather).

 

What is something totally random (yes, that thing that just popped into your head) that hasn't been covered by any previous questions?

I love The Paper Source! I don't know why I forgot this, but I have an obsession with that store. Everything in it is for sure the cutest thing ever. I almost always buy greeting cards there when I need them for any reason. Also! Lots of people seem to be getting Halloween decorations, and as I stated I don't need them, I'll tell you what I do need - CHRISTMAS decorations! I have NONE other than strings of lights! Oh, and a light-up X-wing.

 

Is there anything you either didn't like or had never heard of that you're now curious to try thanks to the discussion in this thread?

lol Sock Dreams! I don't wear socks except in boots, but I wear leggings and tights, and somehow had never connected that they carried those. And the Villainess candles.

 

Is there anything you would like from Sephora?

Umm, EVERYTHING. I have a couple of things listed here, and of those the one I most want is the Tarina Tarantino Shimmer Dust. I have no idea what I'd use it for, but it is SO AWESOME.

 

Who's interested in Halloween: Montreal?

Not me - Smokey scents are generally awful on me.

 

Any thoughts on the new Villainess update?

MORAL DECAY BURN. It sounds amazing.

 

Is there a rare book you’ve always wanted?

This isn't rare so much as random - I collect different versions of Robinson Crusoe, and am particularly interested in illustrated ones. I always look for them at used bookstores.

 

Is there anything you want to buy yourself but have been too embarrassed (R rated or pg)?

Not that I can think of.

 

Tarot?

I don't do tarot.

 

Is there a movie you want that you don’t own now?

Disney's Alice in Wonderland (animated). Oh! Also, A League of Their Own. It was my favorite movie as a kid and I still enjoy it, but somehow I don't own it. Also also, Anne of Green Gables. I've never seen the movie but love the books!

 

Is there a song on Itunes that you haven’t downloaded yet?

Well there are many, many songs on itunes that I haven't downloaded yet! But in terms of one I want and haven't downloaded, eh. Probably so.

 

Does anyone else like collector Barbies?

OMG YES. I already listed my #1 Barbie wish in either my questionnaire or in these questions. I tend to like vintage Barbies more than collector ones. I also love a lot of the Bob Mackie ones, but they're way too expensive for me! Here are some from that website that I like: To Catch a Thief, Sinatra, Kirk & Spock, and in the "I'll have to be satisfied with pictures online" category... Goddess of the Galaxy and Tribute Barbie. 50s-60s Barbies with the winged eyeliner are my faaaaves. I want a blonde one with the bubble-cut hair. My grandmother had one that I played with all the time as a kid (it's the one I put the Guinevere dress on) but it went to my cousin's kids when she cruelly snatched all the Barbie stuff out from under me when my grandparents were dividing up their estate. She took it out BEFORE the official divvying up began, which was CHEATING as I didn't even get a chance to say I wanted it! UGH STILL BITTER.

 

What small everyday items would you like, that you keep forgetting to get?

Haha, I see that DarkAlice answered that she needs a lint roller. I ALWAYS need lint rollers - my rabbit's fur is too fine for any animal brush I've found to pick it up, so when she's shedding, brushing does very little good and I have to lint roll her. This is not mine, but there is a tfln about it, haha. So I'm apparently not the only one!

 

Question: If you're the MMU type of Witchee, what Geek Chic Cosmetics tickle your fancy?

I WANT ALL OF THE THINGS. But I will list just a few. The eyeshadows in Ambassador, Madness takes its toll, Across the Narrow Sea, Born in Fire, The Pointy End, Mind Meld, Frakkin Toaster, and Mana Battery. Of the trios, I like hardcore brown and hardcore blue. Of the blushes, I like Touch Me and Nerdgasm, of the lipsticks, Back to the Fuschia. I am somewhat interested in the Codex foundation and Star Power finishing veil - I am also scarily interested in the green foundation powder (hello, Halloween!). Jesus christ, witch, are you getting the idea yet that I like EVERYTHING EVER OMG? Because seriously.

 

Are there any DIY / Crafty / Free / Budget items you'd love to get but haven't noted yet? (Or, maybe you'd just like to emphasize something you may have only noted in passing?)

I love DIY / Crafty things! I know they often take a lot of time, but if you have a skill you want to show off, even if it isn't something I've mentioned wanting, I'd love to receive something you've made. A Budget thing I LOVE is stuff from the $1 bins at Michaels craft store - they have beautiful notecards, bookmarks, and other things like that, that you'd never expect to find at those prices (and I'm a sucker for notecards, even though I rarely send letters!). Earlier this week I went CRAZY there buying the vintagey notecards. They also currently have Christmas ornaments. I also like headbands from the $1 bin at Target, and headbands/other hair accessories/necklaces from Forever 21. Also I love places like Tuesday Morning, Kohls, etc, for accessories and clothes and things - they have FANTASTIC stuff at low prices. Oh, and Sinful Colors nail polish - it's usually a dollar or two and has fun colors, but I only own two! I can't think of anything free - I suspect if it was free, I'd have already gotten it! (Though, of course, recommendations for books that are free and good - either that are free on kindle or available through project gutenberg or whatever are always loved. One time someone let me know LM Montgomery's The Blue Castle was on Project Gutenberg, and that made me a gleeful Distracts for quite a while. Also, of course, music and movie recommendations. Though I feel like they're less likely to be free than books, and free books are something I can read immediately.)

 

Also on the subject of something I use every day - I have been using the Yes To Cucumbers makeup removing towelettes recently. I used to never take my makeup off at night and ever since getting these as a bonus in a drugstore.com order, I've been using them. SO much easier than actually washing my face with water and stuff at night!

 

Also also, I have a wedding coming up if I ever stop being too lazy to plan it. If you have any wedding planning tips, recs for good books (or locations/vendors in the Dallas area), or ideas about things to do if your theme is art deco, peacock colors, or books (all in the mix!), do tell.

 

Do you own a DSLR camera? Are you interested in a minky camera strap like these? What about anything from Photojojo?

I don't own any cameras, personally.

 

Is anybody else into film photography? Interested in receiving film, supplies, etc from Lomography?

No camera.

 

Are you musically inclined? Do you play an instrument or sing? If so, what?

No. The depth of my lack of musical talent is impressive.

 

Mac using witchees, what computers do you use? What peripherals/accessories do you have and what would you LIKE to have? What do you use your computer for?

MacBook Pro and a Dell desktop - the only nonstandard thing I have is a graphics tablet (Wacom Intuos3). I also have one of those padded laptop lap desk thingies so I can put my laptop on my lap. I don't know that there's anything else I need.

 

Do you like listening to audiobooks? Would you like to receive one, and if you would, what sort of audiobook would you like--or is there a particular audiobook you've been meaning to get?

NO. I CANNOT STAND AUDIOBOOKS. ARGH. I AM FILLED WITH LOATHING JUST READING THIS QUESTION.

 

How many boxes are you hoping for?

Umm, I don't know? This is my first switch witch. I am sending my witchee 3 big boxes, and if you look in the pirate and crooked crafting swap threads you can see what I sent and what I received. I think I'm expecting SW to be more stuff total, because it's longer and not constrained by the theme, and also from looking at the IGI thread. But also I'm easy to please. And really have no idea what to expect because I've never done SW before or even watched it going on before, though I was vaguely aware it was a thing. And I know witches vary in what sort of time and resources they have to devote to their witchees.

 

How do you feel about loose leaf tea in baggies? I mean, I have a TON of loose leaf, would it be okay if I send you samples in some zip lock baggies? Or is that something that would squick you out?

Haha, I am absolutely okay with it, as long as it's clearly labeled as to what it is, including the brand, so I would be able to find more if I love it!

 

How would you feel about getting a custom poster with your favorite quote on it and some cool graphics? I'm an architecture student and can print posters (provided I make them) at pretty much any size using Adobe Illustrator at a low price. Also if you would be interested in this, what quotes would you like?

That would be so cool!

 

What favorite song(s) would you think would translate into a cool or unique scent?

Al Green - Love and Happiness - I imagine this smelling kind of like Banshee Beat.

The Ronettes - Be My Baby - a wall of scent, consisting at least in part of swirling citrus and berries.

 

Interested in anything from the Beaver Moon Lunacy update?

Beaver Moon!

 

I sent you with $20 into a drugstore/Walmart (nothing too fancy/imported/expensive, just your average selection), and you are restricted only to the candy aisle. What would you blow it on?

The sugarfree oreos. Damn, but they're a good replica of the real thing. And lots of sugarfree gum.

 

Do you like scary books? What's the best/scariest thing you've ever read?

Scary books aren't really my thing, but I do read and enjoy some from time to time. I recently read "Before I Go to Sleep" by SJ Watson, and that was pretty scary.

 

Tell me about something you like, and why you like it.

 

Describe your sense of humor.

 

If you could have a salon scent made, based on any artwork(s) what would it be?

 

Are there any characters that you love or identify with?

Oh gee.

Love:

Identify with: Princess Leia, Lily from HIMYM, Amy Pond from Doctor Who,
