why, colin firth, why?
Maybe I should take more afternoon naps. Today I took one and had a dream in which I hooked up with Colin Firth (hot). It was actually a very elaborate dream that involved a whole cast of English characters, and it took place on a set, I think. Very Gosford Park.
BUT!
He turned out to be a bad kisser (not hot). It was disappointing enough in the dream, but after I woke up it continued to bother me. Think about it, if the man of my dreams (literally) turns out to be an awful kisser, what kind of precedent does that set for the average Joe? Was this foreshadowing? Am I to be plagued with bad kissers for the rest of my life??!
On second thought, maybe I shouldn't take anymore afternoon naps.
But at least it involved Colin Firth. He's on my very short list of "Hot Older 'O with a capital O' Men". I guess the list grows longer if you include George Harrison, Gregory Peck, and Jimmy Stewart, but they're dead so they're kind of in a whole different category.
Whatever.
I had a little *squeal* moment when I saw one of those middle school surveys on Patches' blog. I used to be a survey FIEND. For quite some time. So naturally, taking the survey from Patches will probably trigger some sort of relapse. And thus it begins again...
A - Available: Hah, have you ever met me? I'm the poster child for singledom.
A - Age: 19
A - Annoyance: Clingy people (and clothes, actually)
B - Best Friend: iTunes
B - Beer: Magic Hat 9, the cider at Chums
B - Birthday: August 17th

C - Candy: Twizzlers
D - Day or night: Night, bien sur!
D - Dream Car: It used to be an Audi TT...it isn't anymore, but I haven't found a replacement dream car yet.
D - Dog or cat: Dogs, and especially puppies. Have they figured out a way yet to keep dogs in a permanent "puppy" phase? That would be convenient.
E - Easiest person to talk to: Myself, I guess. But I don't talk to myself out-loud. Because that would be weird.
E - Eggs: Scrambled or hard-boiled; but when they're hard-boiled I can't eat the yolk, it grosses me out.
E - Email: deborahoh@nyu.edu
F - Favorite Month: It's a toss up between April and September
F - Favorite color: Right now I think it's either pale yellow or ivory.
F - Favorite Memory: Probably something from my late childhood, which is pretty much when I peaked.

H - Hair Color: Brownish. It's getting lighter every day. Soon I'll have platinum blonde hair.
H - Height: 5'3" or 5'4" I think.

I - Ice Cream: Ben & Jerry's Half Baked is a classic. Pineapple Coconut Haagen Daaz is also surprisingly good.

N - Name: Deborah Consuela Mamoun Princess Banana Hammock Oh (or something like that). But legally, Deborah Oh.
O - One Wish: World Peace! *cheesy grin*
O - One Fear: I go absolutely crazy when confronted with insects. It's irrational, and I can't do anything about it, I just become paralyzed on the spot. Especially centipedes.
O - One regret: Not taking enough chances
P - Pet Peeves: Greasy hair, people who don't know the difference between the indoor and outdoor voice, fluorescent lighting, the flash on digital cameras. I could go on for days.
P - Part of your body you like best: Cheekbones, mouth
P - Part of your Personality you like best: The calm, cool, collected side. My life tends to fall to shambles when I'm flustered.
Q - Quote: "Peux ce que veux. Allons-y"

R - Reality TV show: America's Next Top Model
R - Reasons to cry: Many, but why think about them.
S - Song Last Heard: "America" - Simon and Garfunkel
S - Season: It's pretty much even between spring and fall, but if I really had to choose........I think fall.

T - Time you awoke: 10:30-ish

It's funny, because I always get so bored when I get to the middle of the survey, and yet I keep plowing through. Way to persevere, me! *High five*
And I wasn't going to do any quizzes, but I couldn't help myself.
