mr_x_indeed.
A - ACCENT: In German, I have the tiniest hint of a Berlin accent inherited from my ancestors. In English, I have a harsh German accent when I'm surprised or am acclimatising to the English module now being default for talking, but as I relax, it goes away. A socialist tour bus driver in Dublin once said that I spoke 'Very much the Queen's English', and he didn't mean it quite as a compliment -- socialists don't like aristos, savvy?
B - BREAST SIZE: F. Doing things that require boobage is one of the great advantages of being fat; another is insulation and low heating costs.
C - CHORE YOU HATE: The great bout of CLEAN ALL THE THINGS every weekend. It always takes longer than I thought, and I hate it with a burning hatred. However, I hate living in a messy apartment a tiny bit more. I always end up hot and very snarky.
D - DAD'S NAME: Eike
E - ESSENTIAL MAKE-UP ITEM: Lip liner.
F - FAVORITE PERFUME: Several BPAL ones, first and foremost 'Octopus And Abalone Diver'
G - GOLD OR SILVER: Silver. Gold is for squares.
H - HOMETOWN: Gevelsberg, then Wiesbaden.
I - INSOMNIA: Not really
J - JOB TITLE: Database administrator
K - KIDS: I don't really like strange kids; I love my sister's kids and adore the oldest of them, the Little Lady. She coming to visit me all on her own for the first time ever from next Saturday to Thursday! Yay!
L - LIVING ARRANGEMENTS: Apartment with a room for sleeping and living, and a kitchen for cooking, sitting and eating. Two cats, who get banished from the room at night.
M - MOM'S BIRTHPLACE: Kohlow, just east of the Oder river in what is now Poland, but wasn't at the time.
N - NUMBER OF APPLES YOU'VE EATEN: Sorry, I didn't count.
O - OVERNIGHT HOSPITAL STAYS: Not since I was six. I always managed to avoid everything that would have made them necessary.
P - PHOBIA: As a kid and teenager, I was phobic of mummies, which is more impractical than it sounds if you're an archaeologist's daughter and go to museums a lot with your family. I managed to desensitise myself, which can be done quite easily if you are willing to face a little discomfort, as phobias are nothing but a sort of mental allergies.
Q - QUEST: I'm not on one right now. You'll notice when I get on a new one, as I will talk of nothing else for a bit.
R - RELIGIOUS AFFILIATION: Descendant of generations of Lutheran pastors. Personally, a deist with Orthodox leanings -- I know the combo is strange, but I could explain. Which would, however, end up as a terribly tl;dr.
S - SIBLINGS: One sister, who is expecting her fourth kid.
T - TIME YOU WAKE UP: I aim for nine on a weekday.
U - UNNATURAL HAIR COLORS YOU'VE WORN: Purple.
V - VEGETABLE YOU REFUSE TO EAT: Celeriac.
W - WORST HABIT: Procrastination. But that seems to be the default for everyone.
X - X-RAYS YOU'VE HAD: Mostly teeth
Y - YUMMY FOODS YOU MAKE: Banana chili.
Z - ZANY QUIRK: I'm a bit of a neat freak. Nobody except the cats is allowed to see my place in a mess, unlike it's an emergency or necessary in context (like when the Nazgul came here to work on her costume while I worked on mine).
