What is one think you are secretly vain about?

Secretly? I dunno... I'm not particularly secretive. But boobs. Definitely boobs.

What is one think you are secretly vain about?

My nails. It's driving me crazy that I can't paint them for my job. I love having my nails pretty. And that's about the only thing I care about on that level, physically.

Have you ever had a bad roommate experience?

A couple. My freshman college roommate was the rich kind. She didn't even know how to use a microwave and started a fire our first day there by putting some ship in for like... half an hour? I was out. I'm just glad it was contained and my stuff didn't get lit on fire. She threw a fit because her parents wouldn't buy her a $300 pair of boots and a $500 coat. And she was Bible study, church every Sunday, Christian. Oh, and she said all homeless people could get a job if they really wanted one and we shouldn't have any assistance programs for the homeless because then they had no motivation to get there lives together. Oh the memories.

And my husbands mom. It's never good to live with the in-laws but it was necessary. One night, she got drunk, and tried to flood us out of the basement by turning the shower on down there, screaming how we didn't appreciate them, etc, etc.

What is one luxury you can't live without?

A house. I couldn't live without my house. I need shelter. If I have to carry water home, I can do that. I'd hate it, but I could do it. And I only really use electricity for my computer and e-reader and I don't need either of those. I can curl up with an old fashioned book, not that I'd have time, hauling water and all.

What are you superstitious about and why?

Mirrors. I can't stand mirrors. Too much fictitious evil I've read about with mirrors. There's the Jachyra (I think I spelled that right) in the Broken Sky series who spy on people through mirrors. And the movie Mirrors. And now that other scary movies I've caught pieces of that involves a mirror. And there's the whole the eyes are the gate to the soul thing so I feel like I'm looking into my soul when I look into a mirror and what I see scares me. On one level, it's superstitious nonsense, but still. I don't like mirrors. In fact, the worst part of commuting was looking in my rearview mirror at night off and on for a hour. I know, I'm kinda crazy.

What is one think you are secretly vain about?

If you're talking about physical attributes, it'd have to be a toss up between my hair and my eyes. I have long blond hair and green/blue eyes. My eyes I might be slightly more vain about; if you look real close, you can see pools of yellow and blue in them, and I always thought that was kind of neat

An inner attribute that I'm vain of would have to be my love of stories. I read a lot and watch a lot of tv and movies... I love anything with a good story, especially if it's science fiction or fantasy related

I'm not sure if that really counts as a vain the thing though....

Well, it was The Walking Dead... but it won't be back til February. So I guess I'll have to go back to looking forward to the new posts on PostSecret.

What is one think you are secretly vain about?

I think I am very vain about my writing of fanfictions. I think I am a pretty good writer.

What do you look forward to every week?

My days off - just being able to do absolutely nothing.

That and...having time to cook.

Is it bad that my first thought was "the next week"? ...ugh, try to come up with something positive, hmm...

Sylvie is back right now teaching yoga. I really look forward to her classes each week when she's here, because she's the most perfect yoga instructor I've ever had. She's witty, and funny, and when she shows you how to do something, it's easy to remember. She is the yogi I aspire to be.

Other than that....pay day. Always look forward to pay day.

What do you look forward to every week?

2 things: Thursday night: JP and I watch the newest episode of pokemon streamed from Japan. That's not so exciting, but since discovering we like macaroons, eating those while we watch has become a tradition. If I'm off work, I like to make a Japanese-style meal too, so it's like a mini theme party!

I also look forward to my Skype call with a friend every Sunday. It started mainly for speaking practice, but it blossomed into a genuine friendship. When you care about the other person, language practice doesn't feel like work at all!

I wish I had something more high brow to share, but if I'm being honest, I'm very addicted to The Vampire Diaries, so that's the thing I look forward to most, at the moment

This is a tough question because my life isn't really parsed this way. Each day is sort of like the previous and the next, no weekly event worthy of anticipation stands out in my mind. I mean, great stuff happens, but in random ways on random days. Let's see .... Um, breathing? Breathing is good, all in all, but it is not weekly. That would be a neat trick, though. Nope, drawing a total blank here.
