Another Little Questionaire Thingy

[create_destiny]

name:Greek word for "gift of God." (Shut-up! I didn't say I am a "gift" from God. It's just happens to be my name, okay?)
age: Thirty...something
where are you from: east of the midwest or, "the mideast" as I like to say (USA)
reason for LJ username: futile attempt to overcome my fatalism
interesting fact about you: I once made out with the guy who played "Jack" in "The Lord of the Flies." He kind-of freaked me out though so I wiggled away from him.
weird fact about you: If I were a guy, I'd like to have a beard because I think beards are interesting. Um, that was an embarrassing admission. Forget I said that. Let me think of another answer...er, sometimes, at night, when I'm falling asleep, I like to imagine that I'm snuggling with a fluffy, purring cat because my cats are assholes who refuse to snuggle. Oh, but when they're old and decrepit they'll want me for my body heat, so I got that going for me....
quote:"Everybody likes to complain about the weather, but nobody ever does anything about it." -Mark Twain
give me a brief summary of what's going on in your life right now:I'd love to gripe about how lonely and agonizing my life is right now but I'm afraid God will be like, "Oh, you think your life sucks, huh!?! Well take that!" *smites me with [insert horrible tragedy or illness]*. So, really, my life is just dandy!

RECOMMEND
a movie:13 Conversations About One Thing
a book:Panther in the Sky by James Alexander Thom (historical fiction about the Shawnee Indians)
a musical artist, song, or album:Zedashe -"Where Mountains Meet Heaven" (Ancient Georgian Chant and Folk Music)
a LJ user:sharkrepellant
something to do in the next two months:Make a piece of art out of trash or scraps of paper

Dorothea? Dotty?

I'll copy and post it here then.

name Who or What am I? Does My name determine my character? Not according to the last link :P

age Born Sept 25 1965

where are you from I was born in Sinsheim, Germany but I was an army brat and spent most of my early years moving a lot. In 78 my dad retired from the army and I ended up in Warsaw Indiana until the early 80s when I came to California.

reason for LJ username Every name I tried was taken so I pulled down my Encyclopedia Cthulhiana and paged through it till I found a name I figured would be available.

interesting fact about you: Well, what I think is interesting isn't necessarily what anybody else finds interesting. I never played Jack in the Lord of the Flies. Or made out with a guy who did. I had a cat that had 6 toes on both his front paws, but that is more an interesting fact about the cat, not me. Hmmm. My fingers are sort of double jointed so I can bend my fingers at the first joint which it seems most people can not do and apparently it freaks out some people that I can. Except for my left pinky which is a slacker and can't make the bend.

weird fact about you: Maybe my interesting fact was a weird fact. I dunno. I can't think of anything right now. That I'd want to post here, anyway.

give me a brief summary of what's going on in your life right now I'm bored and restless and wondering wtf the point is. I didn't say "I wanna be a drone" when I was a little kid but here I am. And if God wants to get all huffy about me saying that then I direct him to the wisdom of Cool Hand Luke:

[Discussing God and the rain]
Luke: Let him go. Bam, Bam.
Dragline: Knock it off, Luke. You can't talk about Him that way.
Luke: Are you still believin' in that big bearded Boss up there? You think he's watchin' us?
Dragline: Get in here. Ain't ya scared? Ain't ya scared of dyin'?
Luke: Dyin'? Boy, he can have this little life any time he wants to. Do ya hear that? Are ya hearin' it? Come on. You're welcome to it, ol' timer. Let me know you're up there. Come on. Love me, hate me, kill me, anything. Just let me know it.
[He looks around]
Luke: I'm just standin' in the rain talkin' to myself.

Recommend
a movie Ghost Dog: The Way of the Samurai
a book The Essential Calvin & Hobbes It'll have to do until they compile the whole strip into one big leather bound collection, which I will buy.
a musical artist, song, or album:Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds: No More Shall We Part I love this cd.
a LJ user: I don't really know that many LJ users. They are all pretty cool in their own way. My buddy lurkingowl is a very smart guy though. Probably the smartest person I personally know.
something to do in the next two months: HellifIknow. I have to be at work in about a half hour, I should take care of that first.

Uh, "Dotty?" No.

Dorothea?

Yeah, I guess you found me out.

At last, a name for you. Now dietcokehed and I can stop trying to pronounce your unpronouncable username.

Are any of those pictures you?

You say you've never made out with the guy who played "Jack" in Lord of the Flies, but I heard otherwise....:P

Sorry you had to live in Warsaw, IN

Love the Silent Bob quote. Don't know who Cool Hand Luke is.

I don't think I've ever listened to any Nick Cave, but it seems a lot of people I know are into to him so I'll have to check it out, see what I'm missing.

[ygolonac.livejournal.com]

None of those pictures is of me.
As far as Jack and I...somebody is lieing.
I started not minding Warsaw so much right about the time we moved away.
Cool Hand Luke is a movie. One of my favorite movies.

I am so tempted, everyday, to call in sick when I am home for my lunch break.

[createdestiny.livejournal.com]

Yeah, me too, that's why I try to avoid going home for lunch breaks.

[dietcokehed.livejournal.com]

Just out of curiosity, what other names did you try?

[ygolonac.livejournal.com]

I really don't remember.
