Some really fun survey questions, this time. I actually like these.
What's the nicest thing anyone has ever said to you in your whole life?
Well, Benway said once, something along the lines of, 'I can't believe how you manage to crawl around in other people's heads the way you do.' I distinctly remember the 'crawl' part. Because it gave me a happy.
Something that's of very little importance except that I want to say it, and Benway deserves it -- he is rather a hero of mine. He has character, and he has style, and he intimidates me to all hell because, when he writes, it seems like he *knows* what he's doing. I just stumble across the right thing.
But, that's a different story. If there was one thing I'd want to thank him for, it would be that compliment. I cherish it above almost all others, as far as complimenting my writing goes.
What makes it hard for you to stay sweet?
A-pa-thy, y'all.
--I left this in just because I'm fond of writing words with dashes in the middle of them. Jesus, I'm a whore. ;)
If you're over 18, have you ever have ice cream and pizza for breakfast?
I can top that. I think I've had ice cream, pizza *crust*... and then gone out for smothered and covered hashbrowns at Denny's. Hungover.
--I guess the hungover was assumed, wasn't it.
What's your guilty pleasure [or pleasures]?
Dude, I don't have guilty pleasures. I don't feel guilty about any of it. ;)
No, okay, I guess wanting to be as gay as Lance is pretty guilty. Maybe enjoying my life through the.... umm.... no. I'm an instant-gratification kind of person. If I want it, I do it. And, um, don't regret it. Most of the time.
If you could have any superpowers, which would they be?
I've always wanted telepathy. I think I have this paranoia with people lying to me. Or, this fascination with finding out *when* people lie to me. And each other.
I left that in because I found the wording of my answer to be interesting, in a psychological sense. I don't know why. Perhaps I'll self-analyze it some time.
If you could give superpowers to someone else, to whom would you give them and which powers would they be?
Um? Like. --oh. Hah. *grin* I'd raffle off booty-getting-vibes.
Left that in just in case anyone wants to make an early bid.
This is the questions I really wanted to keep, because it cast half the Iliad. Which I found fun to do.
If you could go to Hollywood and make one movie [yourself as producer/director], with your dream cast, money no object, what film [made or never made] would you choose to make?
My buddy Will and I have this great pseudo-porn flick all planned out, with God as a polar bear and the waitress secretly wanting to murder all her customers, and an invisible narrator telling the stories of all the shady and crazy people in all the booths of this shitty cafe, that may or may not resemble Denny's. But, that movie would probably suck and cost about as much as Clerks to make, all things considered (since Will can get the polar bear cheap if we cast the trainer as God), so I'd want to do an epic based on the Iliad.
I want to cast Nicole Kidman as Helen. Maybe, Jude Law as Achilles -- we decided in Latin class that Jude Law would be a fab Achilles. I want someone tough-yet-sensitive as Hector. Maybe, someone like Julia Stiles as Andromache. Agamemnon would be great by someone arrogant, like Russell Crowe.
Oh, oh! And Achilles/Patroclus as Ben Affleck/Matt Damon. *beams*
Yes. That's the movie I want to do.
~*~
Anyway.
River and I are writing a pseudo whodunnit serial-killer mystery ish fic right now. It's got Michael and Max and Liz and Isabel and Maria, some time in early season one because that's when I know them. And it's got Mulder, because I can't resist making fun of him sometimes. And it's got Darla from Buffy (well, sort of. I can't see that angelic, gorgeous... just, that HONEY face without thinking, 'oh, vampire.')
Julie Benz is such a goddess. Anyway.
So Darla and Mulder are investigating aliens in Roswell. Et cetera. It's kind of bad, but we're having fun. And I've always wanted to start a horror/mystery, do a few grisley death scenes, get good-er. (yeah, like that's going to help my improvement. 'good-er'. See the irony? see the cradle?)
--okay, so now I'm mad-buchering Kurt Vonnegut conceptual ideas and titles. Enough for now-- just wanted to tell y'all that Patroclus should be played by Matt Damon. ;)
