I'm leaving soon and I have to pack. Therefore, I leave the latest meme in my wake. Gacked from 
lm, collie, and ashkennedy...
>Do you like having your picture taken?
Um. Depends. If I'm bumming around and haven't showered or brushed my hair, no (Ahem- Noble). Normal times, it doesn't bother me one way or another. Orpheus nights- oh yeah.

Hard one. I want to see the Grecian ruins. I also want to tour Ireland (damn you, Rac).

From time to time.
>Pick up the closest book and write a sentence at random from it:
"Then I would gently stroke her hair, and let my tongue linger upon the sweet-scented arch of her neck."- Waking The Moon, Elizabeth Hand.
>Do the same with a lyric from either a cd or the radio:
"I'm not crazy, I'm just a little unwell."--Matchbox Twenty, More Than You Think You Are

Yep.

>Write one sentence stating what you want people to say about you after you've passed on.
I don't know. Mostly, I want honesty. If someone really didn't like me in life, I should hope that they aren't all gushy at the funeral after I'm dead- I hate that, y'know? I don't really care what people say, I just hope it's honest.
