1 hour, 15 minutes to go. And Friday.

Leave your name, and I will...

1. ...respond with something random about you.
2. ...challenge you to try something.
3. ...pick a color that I associate with you.
4. ...tell you something I like about you.
5. ...tell you my first/clearest memory of you.
6. ...tell you of what animal you remind me.
7. ...ask you something I've always wanted to ask you.
8. If I do this for you, you must post this on yours

I'm tired. I have no chocolate (horror!) to combat the afternoon caffeine desire. I am hoping that there will be mail so that I can take a short walk outside to the mailbox.

Too often, the highlight of my day is food in some way. I need to start taking more baths. Soaking would probably be more beneficial that the equivalent time in sleep.

Head patted, tummy rubbed. For some reason that engendered a deep desire for tasty scones. I think it's because my Adagio tea order just came in and scones and tea are happy together!!!

To answer number 7: My name has a somewhat historic but pretty boring start. I was on a local bbs when I was 12 years old or so and I needed a handle. My first one was "flashlight", which is where the old term "Flaslight Holder Peering Over" comes from.

Since it was a local BBS, we'd have meetups now and again. I was perpetually being introduced as "This is Amber, or Flashlight. You know, the spazzy chick."... My spazzyness at the time was more of the annoying sort so I can imagine where such a reputation would spawn.

Anyway, about 14 or so the BBS I was on died a horrible phone bill death and a new one sprang up. I then used the handle "Spazzychic". While at the time I was still VERY tomboy like and as far from "chic" as I could be, I appreciated the irony. :)

The name ended up on LJ because when I started the journal I felt a lot like the confused, depressive and lost 12 year old I was, but I remembered even though life was pretty crappy at the time, I still managed to have some great friends met through an online community. Thus, the name came here. :)

I was so wanting scones this morning. No time to stop by Grand Central; they have really good hazelnut-fruit ones.

Post about your tea when you get a chance! ^_^
