gadgetorious.
1. When you were little, what did you want to be when you grew up?
An archeologist by day and a rock star by night. This is what happens when you are exposed to too much Indiana Jones and Jem and the Holograms. By ten I decided I wanted to be a writer. This is working out much better for me.
2. If you had to guess, roughly how many times a day do you make a scifi reference that completely flies over somebody else's head?
On average, only once or twice. I am lucky in that I work with exceptionally nerdy people, however.
3. Rewriting Monty Python with the Enterprise Crew; is this the worst idea I've ever had?
...The Enterprise. It is a very silly place.
Planet Anthrax??
4. If you could bring back one show that had been canceled, what would it be and why?
Firefly. You don't need a reason because it's FIREFLY.
5. WHAT THE HELL AM I SUPPOSED TO DO WITH MYSELF ALL WEEKEND WITHOUT YOU?
Write Jim/Eomer porn to woo me back online?
Bonus question, in case you can't take #5 seriously (though, believe me, it's serious business indeed): The most bizarre crossover you're absolutely convinced needs to be written?
Firefly/Reboot. Don't think it's bizarre though, just that it needs to be very carefully done.

Date: 2010-09-25 11:39 pm (UTC)I tried working. I'm just not up to it. I require entertainment; I'm high maintenance. I'm answering your questions in a comment though. My flist is still digging themselves out from under all my memes from the last few days.

Date: 2010-09-25 11:55 pm (UTC)I'm not really sure. I love so many. I'm a fan of red meat, cheescake, nachos - I'm a equal opportunity junk food lover.
2. Lemon tea or green tea?
Green tea. Though what I really prefer is black tea or peppermint tea.
3. You walk into a bookstore. Which section do you go to first?
Depends on the bookstore. I'm a Cliff's most often, the used bookstore by my parent's house, and I always beeline for the sci-fi section and then poke around from there.
With NEWER bookstores I depends on what I'm there for. I usually go to new bookstores when I have something in mind to buy, and the used bookstores when I want to poke around.
4. Mal or Jim?
Mal. Sorry, I gave it a lot of thought and there's no two ways about it. Captain Tightpants over Captain Fine for me.
5. If I get into grad school, will you help me cram for my Old English exam?
You know I will. Just know that when I go back to school you will be repaying the favor. :P

5. Coffee most of the time, but if I'm feeling poorly, I usually just want a mug of tea.
