skygiantsSince I've just gone through to pester everyone else: Meme!
Reply to this and I will:
1) Tell you why I friended you.
2) Associate you with a song/movie.
3) Tell a random fact about you.
4) Tell my first memory of you.
5) Associate you with an animal/fruit.
6) Ask something I've always wanted to know about you.
7) In return, you MUST spread this disease in your lj.
With caveat that the answer to 1) is pretty much always going to be "Because you friended me hi!", due to my lack of initiative.
Am now off to comb Palo Alto for rental copies of The Emperor's New Groove, as roommate has not seen it and library does not have it, both of which make me go >:O. Will respond upon return!

3) Your cooking posts make me incredibly envious - I don't have a kitchen here at school, and so I read them and I lust for ingredients and a stovetop and an oven and a fridge bigger than a shoebox. And the pics always come out looking so tasty!
Also, your taste in literature - but especially trashy comfort literature - is the best.
4) You know, I'm sure we'd threaded and talked before, and of course I knew who you were and was predictably terrified in an 'omgit'saMOD' fashion, but my first really clear memory of playing/interacting with you was when Bernard locked Meg up? *beams* GOOD TIMES.
5) *ponders* Pomegranate. Extremely cool and with about a million mythological and poetical references attached.
6) If I were going to read another Tom Robbins book (having already read SLWW, obviously) which should it be?

Hm. I always tell people to read Even Cowgirls Get The Blues, with this caveat: If you were offended by the way Robbins described Arabs in SLWW, you will lose your mind over Cowgirls.
A hint: He is so meta and fucked up about the way race and racism are coded in america that the Native American character in the book was played by Keanu Reeves in redface. And the character named "The Chink" was played by Mr. Miyagi.
It's awesome.

This is where all the root vegetable porn running gags with Crowley and Bernard comes from.
