You are Julia Kristeva! You were a student of
Roland Barthes, and came up with such important
notions as intertextuality and abjection. You
are a semiotician, psychoanalyst, scholar of
literature, and dozens more things. You are not
dead.

Once it swallows a child, it takes a python months to digest it...

I can't help but thinking there is something very, very useful in this discussion, but I'm not savvy enough to quite dig it out in a way that is immediately obvious to me. It's likely tied to my struggle with things fem(me), since I feel like I'm already pretty down with the idea that dysphoria isn't necessarily about parts, or even gender. But, it is interesting enough for me to direct the attention of those who might be interested towards it.

1. I only have one relative I genuinely care about; most of you got that one right.

2. My only true, physical addiction is to caffiene, though there are lots of things I say I simply can't live without (though preimminent among them, fairyhead, wasn't even listed).

3. Bestest cat I've ever had was Winkie. He could open and close interior doors, turn lights on and off, and he pulled the tacks out of my sister's posters; what more could you ask for?

4. While I've got crushes on all of these celebs, Julianna Hatfield wins in terms of staying power.

5. The magic number is 7 (though I admit to being a little surprised that I got two votes for 15; I'm not quite sure how to take that).

6. In this case, the eyes have it.

7. I like all the works listed, a lot, but by far my absolute favorite is "Kitchen" by Banana Yoshimoto. If you haven't read this book by now, what's keeping you?

8. Again, all of these songs make me cry at least some of the time, but "Creep" always gets me. Yeah, I was surprised, too.

9. I count earlobes, so I have 2 piercings and 2 tatoos.

10. According to the traditional sun sign system, I'm a Taurus (though I'm not sure I'm buying it).

So, there you have it.
