Okay, so the socks aren’t finished yet. But number one is! But… I forgot to upload the pics from the camera, so, that’s that. I’ll maybe post later tonight with a picture of that and the latest shawl photo!

But for now, a stolen meme from Chaotic Crafter.

What kind of soap is in your bathtub right now? Some citrus smelling green bar of mysterious origin that I received from my boss as a Christmas gift. I’m hoping it’ll last till the end of the year, because I stole developed a new custom last New Year’s on ridding myself of all (most) of the disposable products like that at the end of the year, and starting fresh at the beginning! Hate to do that with a fresh bar of soap. Though, I have some shower gels I keep just for the hell of it, mostly, that I could use if I run out too soon, though. I really prefer bar soap, though. Wow, I’m tired - what a long answer on soap, of all things.

Do you have any watermelon in your refrigerator? Gosh, no. Not at this time of the year.

What would you change about your living room? Currently, and most likely to change in the near future, my ‘curtains’. I say that with ‘ ‘’s because what I have now is a very grandmother valance over a dropdown shade, and I’d really like a not so grandmotherly valance. After that, a television bench, as opposed to the gigantic entertainment center that doesn’t suit me anyway.

Are the dishes in your dishwasher clean or dirty? That is a very good question.

What is in your fridge? Lots of leftovers. Tons of bagged herbs I just cut yesterday and need to work out how to dry. Cheese. Apples.

White or wheat bread? White. Don’t get me near that brown shit, please. I don’t care how healthy it is.

What is on top of your refrigerator? A teapot. My recipe box. A couple empty cookie jars. Occasionally, a cat.

What color or design is on your shower curtain? White background, pink/purple/green/blue dragonflies.

How many plants are in your home? None, currently. I used to have a ton. Then the spidermites came… That sounds ominous. And believe me, it was horrible.

Is your bed made right now? Naw. I hardly ever make my bed.

Comet or Soft Scrub? *cringe* Neither, please. Too much evil harsh bad chemicals for me.

Is your closet organized? Vaguely. Not real well. None of them are organized real /well/.

Can you describe your flashlight? Sure. I can even describe where it is, thanks to a lesson learned during a very long power outage in the middle of the night, during which I tried valiantly to find them and could not. Blue flashlight, heavy and solid plastic, sitting next to my computer monitor, where I will probably /be/ when and if the power goes out. Got a second flashlight by my sliding door, black, with a white button, and ridged.

Do you drink out of glass or plastic most of the time at home? Plastic for water (only because they’re my largest glasses), glass for everything else.

Do you have iced tea made in a pitcher right now? Sadly, no. Until yesterday, I didn’t have any room in the fridge. Now, I still don’t have room in the fridge.

If you have a garage, is it cluttered? ‘Cluttered’ is too mild a word for my garage.

Curtains or blinds? Depends on the window.

How many pillows do you sleep with? Four. I surround myself with pillowy goodness. One under my head, one on either side of me to… prop me sideways or cuddle or whatever, and one for my knees.

Do you sleep with any lights on at night? No. But I sleep in the daytime, so my room is definitely not dark, despite all my efforts to block the light from the room. Yes, it’s a bitch. A real, real bitch.

How often do you vacuum? Not often enough, but more often than I used to. How’s that for evasion, boys and girls?

Standard toothbrush or electric? Standard - electric ones scare vibrate, and I don’t like vibratey things.

What color is your toothbrush? I think it’s a faint clear purple, but I could be wrong. Might be a faint clear blue instead.

Do you have a welcome mat on your front porch? No. I don’t welcome people into my home. *snerk*

What is in your oven right now? Not a damned thing.

Is there anything under your bed? Cat hair. Perhaps a sock or two. Maybe a cat.

Chore you hate doing the most? Toilet cleaning. Dishes. Cleaning the kitty boxes.

What retro items are in your home? Eh. I don’t collect much ‘retro’, but I’m sure I’ve got some retro stuff. Nothing comes to mind.

Do you have a separate room that you use as an office? No. Since I live on the computer, that would separate me from the rest of my house for 99% of my day.

How many mirrors are in your home? Five large ones. Probably some small ones.

Do you have any hidden emergency money around your home? Usually, but it’s gone by the end of the week most times.

What color are your walls? They are all the color of ugly. Textured wallpaper, 30 year old wallpaper in the kitchen, poorly painted paneling, more ugly wallpaper…

Do you keep any kind of protection weapons in your home? No. Not /as such/. But I know right where my pointy knives are.

What does your home smell like right now? Nothing in particular right now. Generic ‘cat’ scent, perhaps.

Favorite candle scent? Spiced scents - like cinnamon and pumpkin and autumn spices and stuff.

What kind of pickles (if any) are in your refrigerator right now? Claussen quarters. Mmmm.

What color is your favorite Bible? My favorite Bible? The heck?

Ever been on your roof? Nonononono.

Do you own a stereo? Not no more.

How many TVs do you have? One. But it’s not hooked up to, you know, tv or anything. It’s just there for decoration, mostly.

How many house phones? Two.

Do you have a housekeeper? I wish.

What style do you decorate in? I’ve been aiming for Asian, somewhat, but mostly, my style is “cluttered”.

Do you like solid colors in furniture or prints? Solid, mostly.

Is there a smoke detector in your home? Supposedly. I’ve just bought a new one, but have yet to put it up.

In case of fire, what are the items in your house which you’d grab if you only could make one quick trip? Cats, and if possible, I’d seize my main computer, slide open my huge living room window, and toss it out to safety, too. Not necessarily in that order. My cats are cowards, and I’d have better luck saving the computer than seeking out and trying to grab hiding kitties. Practical, but true.
