Well, I got tagged. 
Alexsandria Which is good because now I don't feel all left out. And I haven't weeded my friends list yet, but I'm giving it another few days and then it's gonna happen. So here goes.
1. I named myself. My parents didn't know whether I was going to be a boy or a girl, but if I was a boy they were going to name me Rafael. They were going to name me Diana if I were a girl, but my mother's name is Elizabeth and my grandmother's is Victoria and I was born the same year Prince Charles announced his engagement to Princess Di, and my mother didn't want three generations of British royalty in the family. So one night in her 8th month she had a dream in which a voice told her: "Your baby is a girl and her name is *insert my real name* "
2. I wasn't allowed to watch anything but Star Trek until I was thirteen years old. This explains a lot about me.
3. I have been a vegetarian since I was nine. I am the only one in my family.
4. I went to an alternative "democratic" high school in which there were no classes, curriculum, requirements or age seperations (ages 4 and up). It saved my life.
5. I ran away from home when I was 15 and lived on the streets for a year before getting my own apartment. It was incredibly liberating and wonderful, although I wouldn't do it again.
6. I have traveled to Chile, China, Cuba, Mexico, England, Scotland, France, Spain, Puerto Rico and the Brittish Virgin Islands. Chile was my favorite so far.
7. I was going to major in Egyptology until I got sucked into English.
8. Both my parents are lawyers. Now you know why I'm so argumentative.
9. I am anal retentively organized, including having a filing system that is color coded by date.
10. The perfect person for me would be just like my cat. I think he's my soul mate.
11. I've ridden the following animals: horse (duh), llama, camel, and elephant.
12. I'm terrified of big dogs and spiders. At least spiders I can vaccum up.
13. I haven't had my natural hair color since I was 14. When I started dying it it went down to my butt. I then shaved it, and eventually got a mohawk. Now I'm doing long and colorful again.
14. I don't really think I'm this interesting.
15. I quit drinking coffee when I was sixteen, and now only drink Red Rose tea.
16. I hate hippies, and yet I'm always attracted to them.
17. I can quote The Princess Bride line for line.
18. Only five people I've just kissed haven't told me they were in love with me. This is not a good thing in my book.
19. I used to sing in a band. There's a video of it somewhere when we played out and I sang a song called "Nobody Fucks Like You" that had an orgasm solo, but wasn't written by or about me.
20. I'm a compuslive liar, and none of this is true. Especially this part.
Damn, that was boring. S_Eldorado, Juliette and Sureality - TAG, YOU'RE IT!

and yes, we were emailing one another. haha. bad memory eh?
The lines just pop into my head unbidden at really funny times.
Last night I was watching Pandy's new show and I kept expecting him to say "Hello! My name is Inigo Mantoyo. You killed my father. Prepare to die."
So, I hope you weren't lying about that part.
