five questions, from
spoggly
1. What color is your toothbrush?
It's green and white. One of those battery powered electric ones, but the bottom bit is missing because apparently it's like, perfectly stimmie-sized or something like.
2. If you could live anywhere you wanted, where would it be?
Hmmmmm.
I really like it here, to be honest. I'd probably still live in Seattle and maybe even in my current neighborhood, but I'd be living in a little house instead of an apartment. The weather is usually more agreeable with my temperament here (although I am SO OVER THIS COLD AND RAIN IN JUNE THING) and okay, yes, hills, but this neighborhood's not so bad. But I'd also have a second house somewhere; maybe on a beach in North Carolina or the Oregon coast, someplace where I could go and write, or an apartment in New York City.
3. Have you ever been to Japan? I feel like maybe you have, but this is based on zero factual knowledge.
I have not! I'm just kind of obsessed with it, and I'm obsessed with details. *laugh* I'd like to go someday.
4. What's your favorite House ship, if you have one?
Hard question. I'm a House/Wilson girl from way back but I'm not totally set on that. I like House/13 and Kutner/13 and Cuddy/13 (okay, I'm kind of obsessed with 13, but in my defense, Olivia Wilde is hot and should be brought to my tent immediately after I assume the role of world despot). My dream guilty pleasure 'ship is actually House/Cate Milton (the south pole chick from 'Frozen'). House/Cuddy is interesting. I like unorthodox 'ships because I like to see how people can make them work and still have the characters be in character. I'll believe anything if the writer can make it plausible.
5. How did you become so awesome? Perhaps you were born that way?
Setting aside my usual modesty, I'm actually a case of late-onset awesome. I used to be seriously neurotic and socially anxious and basically a huge mess; I used to avoid human contact pretty much entirely. What you see before you is the result of thirty-one years of evolution and huge doses of anti-anxiety meds. Better living through chemistry. <3

2. You're making me wish I hadn't left BC. I'd be on the ferry to visit you in a minute!
3. My sister lives in Japan. If she didn't, I'd love to move there! (Except of course for that pesky having to learn a completely new language thing -- been there, done that.) I hear it's very clean. That is very appealing to me. Also, sushi, whenever, wherever one wanted. *nom*
4. So where are these 13/Kutner stories? (Based on the real characters, I mean)
5. Is it possible for your awesomeness to rub off onto others?
no subject
4. I wrote one a while back called 'hot stuff (http://phinnia.livejournal.com/1652000.html)', which is basically plotless porn in an exam room in about 200 words or so. <3 But I'm working on one now for the rarepair fest because the one I thought about writing for that decided it didn't want to use the prompt. So I should actually have it done in the next few days (the deadline is the 11th. <3)
5. It seems to be. Of course you have a boundless resevoir of your own awesomeness, my dear twin. <3 <3 *huggle*

And, yeah, besides my husband, I voluntarily associate with, well, nobody in person. I have a hiding spot at work. I avoid social functions, because they make me uncomfortable. Sometimes I don't know what to do about it, because it sometimes makes me feel lonely, but other times I think I prefer it that way.

... that was not supposed to sound pervy ...
oh hell, maybe it was. <3

2. Carmina Burana, Miero by Varttina, 9 and O by Damien Rice, Little Plastic Castle by Ani DiFranco, and Rhythm of Life by the Drakensberg Boys Choir. Ah, my insane taste in music.
3. I would be pineapple! Colorful and tasty, but unexpected and unwanted in that scene and thus and ignored by everyone.
4. Telepathy, assuming that this encompasses both mind-reading and moving-objects-with-mind-ing. Because, I don't know, it would just be awesome. Because...it is. Er. Yes.
6. Fresh, flaky, buttery croissants, because they taste like angels! If one eats angels. Mm, delicious.
