I promise not to try not to fuck with your mind

Thank you, everybody who was there to offer support in the past week. I really appreciate it.

As for the subject of my personal struggles:
I've had long talks with my mom and with BFF Oscar.
Apparently I'm in love.


Oh.


Fuck.

Asked by kennedy_unknown

1. Which fictional character do you feel most mirrors you?
I've always identified as a loner and when I saw the first season of CSI I immediately connected to Gil Grissom. Absorbed in his work he would wonder about people from a distance. Always trying to explain their behavior from rational and the more he found out the more confused he would end up. I felt so betrayed in the last few seasons, when he turned out to be part of the people who need people (who are supposedly the luckiest people in the world? *huffs*) He is not my Grissom anymore, but I remember the man fondly.

2. Favourite flavour milkshake?
Despite my love for chocolate, my vote is going to plain vanilla. The texture and temperature of a milkshake do not need extra flavour.

3. Oldest childhood possession that you still have?
My part of the family is infamous for not throwing anything away. We keep everything. So my old stuffed animals, dolls and other toys are all still around, sitting on beds or hiding in the attic. I have my first bikini framed; I only just started walking when I wore that (not on my own yet, but holding on to mom's hand;) It's orange and tiny and it's hanging on my livingroomwall together with a picture of little baby J.

4. World's most useless celebrity?
I don't understand why Paris Hilton is a celebrity. Don't you have to have some kind of skill to be admired? I know her name, but I have no idea why she is famous.

5. What one place have you been to which took your breath away the most, or most affected you?
Over the years I have seen a lot of gorgeous places in the world, one of the first places I went to on my own was the Grand Canyon. I still remember how it felt, lying on my stomach on the edge of a cliff, listening to the overwhelming quiet that came from the canyon. Beautiful.

Meme the second: thirty questions

1. There are 30 questions.
2. Answer each question with one name.
3. Next to each number, write only the name of the person who fits.
4. Don't tell the questions to anyone who isn't doing the meme.
Comment or PM your email to get the questions, but then you have to do it. Nobody be paranoid; these are good things! Or at the very least, meant fondly.

Okay, since I have a tiny flist and the meme doesn't state I have to pick people from lj, I'm gonna include my many, many real life friends. I'll also stop being sarcastic now. For real. At least until I finished this meme.

How does he do it?

So I watched the CSI season premiere tonight, after rewatching last season's finale of course. Now these episodes are probably taped in succesion in April, but that still leaves me to wonder how in the world Eric Szmanda manages to look younger every episode? Such a pretty boy.
