I am catlike, acerbic, and cheerful.
My Self-Summary
Cheerfully disaffected. And el primo target for nagging 'you must
be over this word limit to ride' computery things.
I’m really good at
Breezily dismissing my shortcomings. Back answers.
The first things people usually notice about me
Can't really say. Apparently I'm very proper and
straitlaced-seeming. Usually said in the context of, "Whoa, I
thought you were all so proper and polite, and then you go
and..."
I can be overpolite and wary with people at first, which is more
about being observant than shy.
My favorite books, movies, music, and food
Books: 'Catch-22', 'Cruel Sea', 'I, Satan'; Authors: Phillip Roth,
William Sutcliffe, Jeanette Winterson, Glen Duncan... hundreds.
Many biographies and give equal airtime to classics and
contemporary. I've got a huge book case and read everything.
Movies: Tend towards arthouse but I'll see anything as long as I'm
not stuck there. Sometimes find movies funny or amusing for odd
reasons. The Pirate Movie! if anyone's seen it, heh!
Telly: Coupling, Young Ones, Black Books, err, don't watch much
tv.
Food: whatever looks good at the place across the road. pasta. I
generally need feeding.
The six things I could never do without
coffee, oversized bed, all my best friends, dusk, intimacy, dawn,
rain at night and summer days, affection.
computer going to zap me for having seven? or me for not being able
to count?
I spend a lot of time thinking about
I spend a lot of time thinking?
Actually, sometimes: why, for example, is it so much better to cook
other things than duck in duck fat?
And why won't vegans message me back?
The most private thing I’m willing to admit here
Despite the oxymoronic nature of claiming something is private on a
public website... my loo has a picture of Karl Lagerfeld captioned
with 'Dear Guest, it wouldn't be very Chanel to piss all over the
seat, now would it?'
You should message me if
you want your message sent back with corrections and suggestions?
heck I don't know.
