My score on The Which Lolcat Are You? Test :

Longcat
(52% Affectionate, 43% Excitable, 40% Hungry)

Protector of truth. Slayer of darkness. Loooooong. Longcat may seem like just a regular lengthy cat, but he is, in fact, looong. For proof, observe the longpic.It is prophesized that Longcat and his archnemesis Tacgnol will battle for supremacy on Caturday. The outcome will change the face of the world, and indeed the very fabric of lolcatdom, forever.Be grateful that the test has chosen you, and only you, to have this title.To see all possible results, checka &dis.

I'd like to meet:

My bed...I'm tired.

Lem'me set a couple ground rules:
1. If you want me to add you as a friend, at least be considerate enough to send me a message.
2. No, that message can't be "Hey babe, you're hot, lets chat" or anything along those lines.

****IF YOU WANT TO SEND ME A MESSAGE, SEND IT TO MY INBOX, NOT MY COMMENTS. I WILL ERASE ANY COMMENT THAT IS MORE APPROPRIATE FOR MY INBOX!!!****

Music:

CURRENTLY MORE THAN A LITTLE OBSESSED WITH SIGUR ROS. COULD YOU TELL?

If you held a gun to my head and told me I had to choose a favorite, it'd either be The Cure or The Smiths, depending on my mood that day. Other than that, anything that inspires me, no matter what genre.
FUCK YOU music elitists/snobs. I refuse to bend to your tastes just to boost your ego and validate your existence on earth! Death to all scenes!!! Grrr!

Movies:

Good sci-fi (I'm picky)
psychological thrillers
medical mysteries
dark comedies
campy horror

Television:

Same as above

Books:

*One Hundred Years of Solitude
*Ishmael
*Dharma Punx
*Lilith's Brood (a trilogy)
*More Than Human
*Geek Love
*PKD books
...mainly Sci-Fi (go figure)

Heroes:

*Dali Lama

*Khen Rinpoche - my lama(RIP)

*Noah Levine

*Wilson and Sharon Hurley

*my sisters - we're delayed triplets

*my boss

*my cat - the real love of my life

*Diane Rehm

*Alan Alda

*My old car (RIP)

Ok, I know how this must look

You’re all thinking, "I think she’s gone a little overboard with this whole Sigur Ros thing."Eh, just let me have it. We’re all entitled to our little indulgences.
