Memememe!

Gacked from my entire flist:

The problem with LJ: We all think we are so close, but really we know nothing about one another. So I want you to ask me something you think you should know about me. Something that should be obvious, but you have no idea about. Ask away. Then post this in your LJ and find out what people don't know about you.

(a) I have been rubbish at asking people questions myself and (b) it's not like I don't tell everyone every single detail of my life ever, but please entertain me on this dreary Friday by allowing me to talk about myself!

What's your new job?

Honestly now, who has better hair than you?

[chaletian.livejournal.com]

My new job, assuming everything gets sorted, is working in the diabetic retinopathy screening service in SW London. I will be a failsafe officer, which basically means auditing the screening process to make sure everyone identified as diabetic is contacted annually with an offer of retinal screening.

Who has better hair than me? Mog, this is heresy!! *is aghast* No, honestly, most people these days. Kathye's is in far better condition and beautiful and shiny and I'm quite jealous. Katie's is a gorgeous colour. Pim's is just so pretty. OH WHY DO I EVEN BOTHER TO LIVE?!!!

[megaleena.livejournal.com]

In-ter-esting.

I notice no mention is made of mine there. Cow.

[chaletian.livejournal.com]

Course not, your hair's shit.

[megaleena.livejournal.com]

Ah, but it's a wonderful colour!

Why do you have so many clothes?

[chaletian.livejournal.com]

Why does Chad not approve of my clothes?

And I dunno. I like clothes. I like shopping. I suppose the two just come together in some hideous juxtaposition. And as we all know, I have absolutely zero self-restraint. I don't think that's really going to change, so I think I just need to be more ruthless about getting rid of stuff I don't wear any more.

[katie__pillar.livejournal.com]

I don't know. Maybe he doesn't. I just haven't used that one in a while and it seemed like a disapproving question.

Don't forget you've got some woolly jumpers stashed somewhere!

So do you have a favourite fairytale?

[chaletian.livejournal.com]

Hmm. I'm not sure I do. I always really liked Rapunzel, so that's probably my favourite, though as an adult my appreciation of fairy stories has been drastically altered by my love of the Fables comics, so now I'm mostly shipping Snow White/Bigby Wolf... *g*

(And I don't have a Fables icon! That is so wrong! *goes off on a hunt*)

ETA: Mission accomplished.

[katherinea.livejournal.com]

Or mine.
Although I remember you getting briefly distressed when I had it cut just before we went on holiday and you liked it lots. I will hold onto that memory.
I’m actually thinking it might be getting a bit long again. It would be most unlike me to actually cut it in good time.

[katherinea.livejournal.com]

Oops, wrong place. Oh well.

[chaletian.livejournal.com]

You should get it cut again. It was very pretty when you'd just had it done.

[katherinea.livejournal.com]

Back handed compliment time, is it? ;)
I hate having my hair cut. Such a waste of time.

[chaletian.livejournal.com]

Yes. It looks shit now.

Oh, just a little jest. It's fine, but it did look particularly nice when it was just done, and the length really suited you.

How could you not love me enough to come see me when I was in London the other weekend for the first and last time in FOREVER?

[chaletian.livejournal.com]

I don't know. I'm so ashamed. Come to London again and stay at Fangirl Towers and I'll cook food for you!!

[rosie-rah.livejournal.com]

OMG HOW DID THIS WINDOW MAGICALLY APPEAR?!

And I CAN'T. That was it. My one trip. Ever (ish).

I need to share with you all that my cat is trying to eat a cactus.

[chaletian.livejournal.com]

I feel sure that venture is doomed to disappointment and failure.

And VERY WELL. After careful consideration, the only remaining solution is that I WILL HAVE TO COME TO YOU ONE DAY. I am prepared to make that sacrifice. Though it will be painful.

[rosie-rah.livejournal.com]

Wo0t!!!!!!!

first otp?

What is yor favorite city?

[chaletian.livejournal.com]

First OTP was probably Jo Bettany and Jack Maynard from the Chalet School books. ♥ First proper fandom OTPs were Paris/Torres (ah, Voyager) and Willow/Oz (I tend to be quite conventional).

Favourite city: London, definitely. Which works out nicely, because that's where I live! I just love how it encompasses every kind of living space, and is just a giant muddle of old and new and rich and poor.

What are your hobbies, apart from Guides & cooking?
