Blasphemy.

1) I am deathly afraid of heights (in fact, looking up at or walking near a tall building almost has the same nauseating effect on me), however I have went skydiving once.

2) I love high heels, but I don't wear them. I consider myself fairly girly, but I prefer comfort over beauty in this situation.

3) I had my appendix removed when I was 13 years old. Contrary to popular belief, they don't tend to give you your removed organs in a little jar!

4) I had terrible Obsessive Compulsive Disorder when I was young (washed my hands constantly, repeated everything I said under my breath, had to do everything an even number of times, etc, however I was somehow able to get myself "out" of it. I still tend to count things (steps I take, number of stairs), but it is so much better now.

5) I make up songs about almost everything. I think it is an inherited trait and I believe I have passed it down to my son. I'm so proud!

6) I love black clothing. Shirts and tops particularly. Not because I'm sad, dark or depressed, but because I like how I look in black (people in Oklahoma don't seem to understand that, but take a trip to the Inland Empire in So Cal and it's the norm).

7) I got my Blood Elf Huntress to a Level 40 in World of Warcraft, but I havent played since then. I vowed I would never play that game because it seems to consume people, but my boyfriend is a computer nerd and got me to play. I have to admit, it is fun.

I can honestly say that my son is my favorite person in the world and I would rather hang out with him that anyone else. He drives me crazy a lot of the time, but he's still my favorite.

9) I have one tattoo. It's pretty big and is right below the base of my neck between my shoulder blades. It's pretty!

10) I'm a bit of a hyperchondriac. I think it's because I watch too many medical and informational programs. I don't think that I am always sick and I don't get sick often, but when I do, I assume the worst. Thankfully I have people who try to bring me back down to earth at those times.

Why? Just curious.

Don't these cancel out? If emotions (and thus desires) don't actually exist, you can't really want to have sex with someone, can you?

1 - I have a tendency toward pedantry - not uncommon here, of course.

2 - My favorite band is Rush, which led to confusion for a Limbaugh fan when I responded to his "Rush Is Right" T-shirt by discussing the songs "Beneath, Between & Behind" and "A Farewell To Kings", and how prescient they were about the second Bush administration.

3 - My favorite video game currently is Mass Effect 2, but I recently became a fan of Rock Band 2 as well.

4 - I have two bands in Rock Band 2 - An Infinite Number of Monkeys, and Autistic Rage. The members of Autistic Rage are named Leo, Hans, Lorna, and Temple. Nobody online ever gets it.

5 - There is a database online with facial codes for your Shepard in Mass Effect 2. On my last playthrough, in which I went consistently Paragon, my Shepard looked like Barack Obama. On the current playthrough, where my responses still tend toward Paragon but include a fair bit of Renegade, he looks like Vin Diesel.

6 - I have been functionally unemployed since January of 2006; however, since my cohusband is in the Army, and our wife is legally married to him, the Army's Exceptional Family Member Program is willing to pay me for 32 hours a month of "respite care" for taking care of our autistic daughter. This may increase soon, if our son is diagnosed with ADHD (as seems probable at the moment).

7 - I met both of my wives by way of computers; the first, which turned out to be a bad mistake, was on a group of BBSes in Omaha, NE, back in the late Eighties. The second was in an AOL chat room in 1997 - that one turned out a lot better.

8 - I enjoy having a bedroom to myself, complete with antiquated video-game systems (an XBox and a GameCube). I want to add a PS2 to this, and (if I can find one) a Dreamcast.

9 - My very first D&D character, a ranger created for a solo campaign, was named Klaiton Moor. I had to explain this to several people.

10 - In college, one of my friends had a radio show, which was "broadcast" only on cable. Since his show was on Saturday nights, nobody ever listened to it, so another friend and I helped him out. I created "Light News - now 99% truth-free, and still no saccharine, caffeine, or artificial ingredients! Never had it, never will!" I was also the voice of newscaster Lesley Dangerouser - the other friend provided the voice of co-anchor Barely Reasonable, and his girlfriend voiced correspondent Ivory Towers.

8. I hate most wedding traditions (like father walking bride down the aisle, bouquet/garter toss, father/daughter dance), so we're deliberately cutting many traditional elements from our wedding and totally doing it the way WE want, rather than the way "it's always been done." Needless to say, I don't look at any wedding advice from theknot.com.

9. I've worked at a thrift store for over three years.

10. I always correct people if they say something about me that is incorrect. I expect people to correct me if I say things that are incorrect about them. I believe it's only courteous.

4. My best friend is Romanian.

5. I have an extreme fascination with the sea.

6. I am a Star Wars fanboy. I walk around in a Jedi tunic a lot(I'm actually typing in my jedi tunic right now, lol). I read the books and comics. I frequently practice with an orange lightsaber at 11 o' clock at night in my cul de sac. Yeah, just to give you an idea.

7. Anime Cosplayers scare me. Specifically, fat boys/girls with colorful spiky wigs often cosplaying as a character of the opposite gender.

8. I have a phobia of balloons.

9. I have only mild Asperger's Syndrome and I often surprise strangers who I'm conversing with when I mention I have it. I do get nervous in crowds though, and won't talk. For instance, I wandered around at a large Star Wars fan gathering two weeks ago for three hours, only talking two or three times and very briefly.

10. I love dogs and am second in command of the dog pack my five dogs have formed in my household. They hold my mother in high reverence as she used to be a vet and seems to have a way with dogs.

Sweet, me too. Well not really the book part because I don't read very fast and I don't find all SW books interesting, especially some of the old ones that add nothing significant to the universe.

10. My fiancee and I are getting married in about 16 days.

1. I am named after my grandmother. I hate my name.

2. I was mainstreamed for my whole schooling years. Back in my day, there was only one type of special education, that was for those who are mentally challenged. Even though I was largely non-verbal before third grade they knew I wasn't mentally challenged so they kept me main streamed.

3. I only spoke to my sister and grandfather up to the third grade.
