2. Who is your favorite artist/band now?
There is no way known that I could have one favourite. This is too hard!

3. What’s your favorite song?
Oh God. See the answer above. Well…Carolyn’s Fingers by the Cocteau Twins always makes me happy…so that would be up there in the top five, at least!

4. If you could play any instrument, what would it be?
The fiddle. I wanted to learn it when I was little (so I could carry around a cool looking violin case) but I got shunted off to piano lessons instead.

5. If you could meet any musical icon (past or present), who would it be and why?
Hum. I think I’d have to meet David Gedge of The Wedding Present. Yep.

That Diddy Daddy Puff guy.

Yes

4. Would you want to be famous? Why or why not?
Yes please! Why? Oh, I just crave money and attention ;o)

5. If you had to trade places with a celebrity for a day, who would you choose and why?
I keep having to remind myself that celebrity means; A person of distinction or renown; — usually in the plural; as, he is one of the celebrities of the place. Hmmm. I cannot think who I’d be! Maybe Kim Deal from The Breeders.

1. What was the last TV show you watched?
Last night we got out the video of Minority Report, which sat unwatched because Fred and Ginger were on the ABC in Shall We Dance….

2. What was the last thing you complained about?
Living in this house! It’s the size of a caravan and I’m plauged by the fact that it has pale blue carpet (well it was blue when we moved in, now it’s a charming shade of grey) and that my parents are the landlords…untenable.

3. Who was the last person you complimented and what did you say?
Dylan. I told him he was excellent for making so much progress on the video clip so quickly!

4. What was the last thing you threw away?
Most of the crap on my study floor.

5. What was the last website (besides this one) that you visited?
The Movable Type support forum.

Just saw some stills from the video clip experiment that we shot on Thursday night. I could kill my orthodontist!! I had braces for three years from the age of eleven until I was about fourteen…they didn’t bloody work at all, and in every clip we’ve done there are scary-tooth shots that I scream about…*sigh* I did get offered free braces when they didn’t work but as I was tortured and fourteen years old, I said ‘no way!’ I would get them now if the offer was still there. Grr.

2. Do you keep some type of planner, organizer, calendar, etc. with you, and do you use it regularly?
I have a palm pilot, a diary, a work calendar and a home calendar…um…and I use none of them with any kind of regularity. I’m so bad.

3. Would you say that your desk is organized right now?
Is this a joke?

4. Do you alphabetize CDs, books, and DVDs, or does it not matter?
The only thing I have ever alpabetised is my vinyl collection. I can find things amidst my own chaos – it’s just that other people flouder hopelessly when they encounter it.

5. What’s the hardest thing you’ve ever had to organize?
Artwork for CDs – the fonts, the colours, the conflicting software programs…I could go on. Even organising a punk rock Wilderness Society Benefit gig was easier!

Oh – and when I go to Adelaide and Hervey Bay, I drink bottled water because the water in both those places tastes like it’s come straight from a public swimming pool.

2. What are your favourite flavor of chips?
Plain.

3. Of all the things you can cook, what dish do you like the most?
Soyaroni with creamy mushroom sauce, snow peas and parmesan cheese.

Anything that uses recycled paper. See Question 1

Any. Don’t care.

2. What quotation best fits your outlook on life?

3. What single achievement are you most proud of in the past year?
Oh bother. There’s three. But I’ll just say one. Getting my eyes lasered.
Woooo yeah!

4. What about the past ten years?
Oh god. Too hard.

5. If you were asked to give a child a single piece of advice to guide them through life, what would you say?
Whatever they try to tell you, you will NEVER need to know how to do long-division.

2. What was/is so great about the person you love(d) the most?
Their ability to make me laugh and take me on adventures.

4. Have you ever broken someone’s heart?
Probably, but not on purpose (

Be prepared to overlook the trivial stuff about someone else that threatens to send you insane. You’ll be much happier (if you can manage it, that is!!)

2. What books from your childhood would you like to share with [your] children?
Well, the children bit is questionable, but see Question 1 and add Harry Potter to the mix.

3. Have you re-read any of those childhood stories and been surprised by anything?

Can’t remember being not able to read. Four?

By being involved in theatre/drama.

5. Is there a friend from your past that you wish you were still in contact with? Why?
Well, occasionally I feel like I wish I was in regular contact with David Wilson or Kirsty. Why? Because David and I enjoy harrassing each other and I’d like to know whether Kirsty survived to reach age thirty.
