1. A song you know all the words to? Er...Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star? Seriously, I probably know others, but dashed if I can think right now of any I wouldn't falter at halfway through.2. Last book you read? Terry Goodkind's Faith of the Fallen. Right now, I'm halfway through Terry Pratchett's Night Watch.3. Favorite pizza toppings? Never really eat pizza. But I succumb every now and then to stealing one of Stuart's Chicago Town Pepperoni pizzas from the freezer - much to his annoyance.4. Your shoe size? Do you know, I have absolutely no clue. Ever since I was a kid, the one thing in all the entire world that I loathe and abhor doing is shopping for shoes. Hate it, hate it, hate it. You have no idea how much I hate it. As a result, I only ever have one pair of shoes and one pair of trainers, which I wear until they are (almost literally) falling off my feet and then I have no choice but to go buy another pair. (I hate it so much, in fact, that I have been known to ask Stuart to just pick up a cheap pair of low heels a the local supermarket when he's doing the weekly shopping, rather than go through the ordeal myself.  ).I think I've had the pair of shoes I have now for about 13 years...so who can tell what size was on them when I bought them.5. Favorite household chore? Hmmmmm. I do have to admit I love putting out a washing on the whirlygig on a good drying day. It's just satisfying to get a whole wash dry in a couple of hours and have them smelling outdoor fresh when you bring them in.6. Household chore you'd do anything to avoid? Putting on a fresh duvet cover. Hoo, boy. Never fail to end up with a nagging pain in my lower back (whoever thought that putting rows of tiny buttons on the end of a duvet cover was a good idea should be painfully shot) and feeling as though I just went ten rounds with a struggling tiger.7. PC or Mac? PC8. Favorite holiday? Stuart and I have never really been ones for going away on holiday. Give me a warm day reading in the garden and I'm happy. Occasionally, we might drive out for the day to Loch Lomond or St. Andrews or around the Fife coast, but that's about it.
ETA: I've just read the other answers and realise I misunderstood this one. Definitely Christmas. I love all the preparation, buying and wrapping gifts, the lights, Christmas songs...<happy sigh>9. Type of cellphone you own? Um.... I know Stuart has that fancy one. iPhone? Lord knows what I have. I barely remember to keep it with me, let alone examine it closely.10. Last ep of L&C you watched? I'm ashamed to say it was some time ago and the one I did the transcript for. One of the first season ones.11. Favorite cereal? Porage!  I'm also partial to Special K now and then, but not often. I tend these days to have egg on toast for breakfast.12. Facebook app you spend to much time on? I don't get Social Networking sites, so not on Facebook at all.13. Somewhere you have always wanted to visit? All the great historical sites of the world. Masada, Machu Picchu, the Pyramids, Petra...I'm a sucker for all that stuff.14. Superpower you wish you had? Invulnerability. I might be more adventurous in life if I couldn't get broken bones. LabRat

OOh!! A poll!!!  1. A song you know all the words to? Thinking... Thinking... I'm supposing it's a song you can sing without a tune. Hmm. The only ones I remember are the lullabies I learnt a long time ago when I still wore diapers (haven't had a need for those in quite a while). I can sing "Atirei o pau ao gato" or "I've thrown a stick to the cat" - yes, it is *that* violent and I hadn't noticed it until recently. Poor children. The lyrics are something like "I've thrown a stick to the cat/ But the cat didn't die/ Dona (Mrs?) Chica was surprised/ with the scream the cat gave... :rolleyes: Yeah, it's awful, I know. Don't know any other lyrics by heart though... 2. Last book you read? Fish Out of Water by Mary Janice Davidson. 3. Favorite pizza toppings? Cheese. More cheese. Sweetcorn. 4. Your shoe size? By portuguese standards it's in average a 36 (but it depends on the model since I have shoes that range from 35 to 37), by UK standards I wear a 3 1/2 shoe size, in Australia my shoe size is 4 1/2 and in the States it's a 6. 5. Favorite household chore? None? :p But if I had to pick one making the beds would be my choice. 6. Household chore you'd do anything to avoid? Cleaning the dust. My nose and my eyes act up everytime I have to do it. Ugh.  7. PC or Mac? PC 8. Favorite holiday? Christmas. It's not the holiday spirit though - it's the food. 9. Type of cellphone you own? Nokia something something. It's black and pink and that's the only other thing I know about it. 10. Last ep of L&C you watched? Brutal Youth. 11. Favorite cereal? After careful ponderation I choose Clusters. 12. Facebook app you spend to much time on? Quizzes. They're the only reason I even have a Facebook account. 13. Somewhere you have always wanted to visit? New York, Dublin and Barcelona 14. Superpower you wish you had? Speed.

1. A song you know all the words to? "Somebody" by Depeche Mode. I just change the "she's" to "he's" so it's relevant to me. 2. Last book you read? True Blue by Luanne Rice.

Household chore you'd do anything to avoid? Cleaning the bathroom. 7. PC or Mac? PC 8. Favorite holiday? Hanukkah. If I had a "Clark" in my life it just might be Valentine's Day.

A song you know all the words to
'Everybody Hurts', by R.E.M. -- along with a whole lot of other songs by Belgian and Dutch artists that probably none of you know ;-).
Last book you read
Thinking in Java, by Bruce Eckel. Yeah, I'm a geek. So sue me.
Favorite pizza toppings
Mozarella cheese and pepperoni.
Shoe size
I have absolutely no idea. I buy them in size 39, but don't ask me how that translates to American sizes.
Favorite household chore
Ironing, because I usually only have time to watch TV while doing that.
Household chore you'd do anything to get away from
Washing dirty dishes. I'm doing this poll to get away from that right now :p .
PC or Mac?
Mac, of course. I used to have a white MacBook that was recently stolen from me by a guy threatening me with a knife. The fact that my insurance company subsequently agreed to refund me 90% of the purchase price for one of the recently introduced entry-level MacBook Pro's, was the one good thing that came out of that.
Favorite holiday
Don't really have one. My family used to be big on Christmas when I was little, with tons of presents and all that, but the tradition has faded away and I don't have a family of my own yet to celebrate with, so... mostly, holidays are not much different from any other day for me.
Type of cell phone you own
Currently none. I used to have a Nokia 3310, the age of which only goes to show how little I care about cell phones, but it was stolen during the same incident mentioned above, and I haven't replaced it yet. I don't think I will, in the foreseeable future.
Last ep of L&C you watched
The Eyes Have It (s2e12), because I'm currently writing a story based on that episode.
Favorite cereal
Good old Corn Flakes, with a teaspoon of sugar mixed in.
Facebook app you spend the most time on
Lately, I've been avoiding Facebook like the plague
Somewhere you have always wanted to visit
New York City! But in a pinch, anywhere in the USA will do.
Superpower you wish you had
Superspeed, so I could work full-time and go to school full-time simultaneously.
You can gaze at the stars, but please don't forget about the flowers at your feet.

1. A song you know all the words to? Hmm, loads - I think! I'll say 'I dreamed a dream' from Les Miserables as I sang that for my music GCSE exam and had to learn the words. 2. Last book you read? I really think it was Teri's 'Burnt Toast' and that was about 3 years ago! 3. Favorite pizza toppings? Pepperoni. 4. Your shoe size? UK 5 which is the small side of average. 5. Favorite household chore? Laundry, especially hanging it out on the line. 6. Household chore you'd do anything to avoid? Washing dishes, can't stand it, although thankfully I have a dishwasher and avoid anything not safe to go in it. 7. PC or Mac? PC, but only because that's what I have always had. I don't really know anything about Macs. 8. Favorite holiday? Christmas definitely, the others don't compare at all. 9. Type of cellphone you own? A Samsung something, I'm looking at it but it doesn't seem to say the make. I don't have a clue. 10. Last ep of L&C you watched? Resurrection as research for my fic. 11. Favorite cereal? Frosties, not that I eat them much. 12. Facebook app you spend to much time on? I spend loads of time on facebook but the apps annoy me so other than facebook chat, none. 13. Somewhere you have always wanted to visit? New York without a doubt. 14. Superpower you wish you had? Flying, being able to get places that quickly, safely and easily would be fantastic. Before I answered this I checked out the vid again - any excuse!
