dark3princess. Post 6 very random facts about yourself then you tag 6 people on your friend list to do the same.
1. I'm right-handed but because I have a dodgy shoulder I use my left for my mouse and people who see me do it say, "Oooh, I didn't know you were left handed."
2. I'm not a sun-bronzed Aussie. I'm Irish winter pale. Like, when people see me in the daylight they feel it necessary to say, "Wow, you are really pale."
3. I've never actually had a pet. I wish some day to rectify this.
4. I've never been out of Australia. I wish some day to rectify this.
5. My favourite ever book, the one I re-read once a year is The Stand. (yeah, I can here you all defriending me from here... heh) I will always love Stephen King, no matter how many space ass-worms he writes about.
6. I have my eyebrow pierced. Yes, random strangers on the street who repeatedly ask me, it's my only piercing.
Tagging... everyone.

Did you read Lisey's Story? I loved that book. So, so good. There's a story line in that particular book that, at least to me, is what John Winchester and his boys could have turned out to be if things had been just a little bit different.

I do exactly the same thing! Partially because I'm an accountant and I can mouse with my left and use the number pad with my right. But also because I broke my right shoulder a few years back and lost most of the use of my right arm for a while.
Drives the IT folks who try to work on my computer nuts! I get the same 'left handed' remarks.

It seems so much more logical that way.

5) Space ass-worms! It's the only King book I've read, but I am all about Dreamcatcher (now I wonder how many other ass-worms he's written....)

(my roommate at the time shared my love...she once had a friend come over to borrow some movies and they had the following conversation:
Friend: What's this one? *points to Dreamcatcher*
Roomie: Oh, it's really bad, you don't want to watch it.
Friend: Then why do you own it?
Roomie: Because it's the best movie ever!
Friend: Whaaa...?)

I also remember some ending with Dudditz wiggling his finger and this whirlpool effect coming from it and smashing the bad alien to the wall and killing him and then Dudditz slumps down and dies.
And now...I'm actually not sure which bad ending was which...guess it's time to watch again :)

You're around some very rude and nosy people. =>}
Re: #3
Pets are wonderful. This icon is my Sparkle. You may borrow her for a day or more, if you wish. =>}
Re: #4
I think there are a lot of people who've never been out of their country.
Re: # 5.
I read The Stand when it first came out and it had a profound effect on me for a long time. In fact, I think it can qualify as literature and not just "another Stephen King novel", as some might call them. He can be an EXCELLENT writer. *g*
That is all.

And yes to King. That and Shawshank Redemption and The Green Mile... all just ... get me right in the heart.

2. I'm sorry. At least you have sunshine and the beach as an option whenever you feel like tanning;p
4. lol, wow. I didn't know you lived in Australia..I guess I should check out that link called 'User Info.' I wish I had been to Australia. My uncle lives there though;p
5. Stephen King is good, although I've never read his books, the movie renditions are good;p
Thanks for the info!:)

I've never been out of the US. Not even to Canadia (which is about 6 hours from where I live now) or Mexico, and I've been to San Diego (which is spitting distance from Tijuana) 4 or 5 times now.
I've always wanted to go to Oz. I've got friends in and around Melbourne, and there's a yearly conference there that my friends would love me to come speak at. Sadly, I'm not sure my health would ever stand the flight...
My favourite ever book, the one I re-read once a year is The Stand.
The Stand is, I think, the best thing he ever did. I'm currently rereading Needful Things.
& I really gotta write the other two sga/sg1/the stand fics on my plate. *sigh*
