What language! ...You kiss your mother with that mouth? 8.

[Jewelry worn daily]: black and silver ring with swirly pattern on it that Em gave me long ago, silver one with raised spiral shape that i believe Amber gave me, watch that I think was the "discount" one Em helped me get from, what was that, Walgreens?, now and then the silver bracelet thing with the "out of print" sticker on the inside, now and then this really simple ruby-in-silver deal that Dadoo gave me recently. 13. [Pillow cover]: my usual pillow is a black fuzzy one that dates from the beginning of the Goth era and has no pillowcase. 14.

[Do you like hot wax]: tried it. has as many bad points as good ones, and besides one's partner must be amenable. 37. [Do you like incense]: aww yeah. no other thing can, with such grace and charm, cover up the smell of 38.

[If you could get away with it and murder anyone, who and for what reasons]: anyone i've ever been mad at, i have reasons for wanting them alive. 41. [Person you wish you could be with right now]: there is this one rant i wrote awhile ago, forget where i left it, that says "once i wanted the mathematically impossible. i now seem to have graduated to the humanly impossible." not so much who i wish i could be with, but who i wish i could assemble in harmony. and it ain't gonna happen. 42. [What/Who is next to you]: floor, floor with a dog on it. 43. [What do you want done with your body when you die]: i don't know. perhaps it would please me if my friends cooked me up and ate me, a la Stranger In A Strange Land. but it most likely wouldn't please them. 44. [Do you believe in love]: yes. 45. [Do you believe in soul mates]: i believe in the finite incarnate--that is, each divine spark most likely has several incanrations at once, all the time, since the human population grows irrespective of the basic spiritual stock we have to draw from. but don't quote me on that. 46. [Do you believe in love at first sight]: i prefer to call it "recognition shock." 47. [Do you believe in Heaven]: maybe i should. 48.
