THREE THINGS I AM WEARING RIGHT NOW

Tan pants, white shirt with a leopard on it, glasses.

THREE THINGS ON MY DESK

Laptop, glass that used to have soda in it, stuffed black cat. (Seashell with eagle carved on it, stuffed white tiger, 'nother stuffed white tiger, monitor, beanie baby cat, speakers, tons of receipts, vitamins, plush nemo and cthulhu, plush easter bunny, drawing I did of our cat Turtle, perfume, box with the origami ring, scanner.... Okay, I'll stop now. Trust me, there's more....)

THREE THINGS I WANT TO DO BEFORE I DIE

If I want to do things, I generally do them. But - go back to the Grand Canyon (I am not actually wanting to go in - I don't have the stamina or the nerves for the hike - I'd love to see it, but not do it - but I would like to stand on the rim and admire some more).

THREE GOOD WAYS TO DESCRIBE MY PERSONALITY

Hyperactive, creative, optimistic.

THREE BAD THINGS ABOUT MY PERSONALITY

Somewhat needy, stubborn, overly fond of pattern/routine.

THREE THINGS I LIKE ABOUT MY BODY

My hair is long and thick and pretty; my body's flexible and feels good (aka, fundamentally healthy/comfortable to wear, thank you - feels good to me); I like being short and fairly slender, I think I look good.

THREE THINGS I DON'T LIKE ABOUT MY BODY

Being so short and slender that it's sometimes hard to buy clothes I would like (some of that is also, of course, the fashion industry...argh!). The current skin condition, and particularly that it's my face instead of somewhere under clothing, not that the latter would make the itching happy. The fact that my eyes need so very much correction to work right.

THREE THINGS MOST PEOPLE DON'T KNOW ABOUT ME

Hmmm. This is not easy to think of things! I fell in the fish pond before I was two years old (good thing my parents had foreseen that possibility and gotten me swimming lessons - of course, then I did not want to come out!). I spent a few of the first years of my life on a farm (not a commercial one, but still a real farm with animals raised for food). I first learned computers on a TRS 80, what I called a "CoCo" (color computer). I only played the data tapes on the living room stereo once or twice, I think....

THREE THINGS I SAY THE MOST

"(Company name), this is Laura!" Said in the chirpiest voice possible; the worse the day is, the more I counter it by trying to chirp. It helps, too. If nothing else, it cheers up whoever is calling me more often than not, which usually helps. :)

"Bloody idiot/fool." Why so often? Ahem, this is a favorite snap/snarl at bad drivers. Though I have to admit, I chose the least-strong phrasing of it.

"Adore." One of my favorite little sweet-comments for Scott, though I'm just as likely to say I'm tickling him or painting him (mostly said, not done).

THREE NAMES THAT I GO BY

Laura, Kyrielle, Firestorm. (The other names are pretty much my characters, so.)

THREE SCREEN NAMES I HAVE HAD

Stormsong (along with half the rest of the 'net at some time or another, no doubt), Jemmael, Alariel. (Okay, the last two are mush characters. Cope.)
