Snurched from [livejournal.com profile] miss_swamp:

I'm watching Defying Gravity, and there's this great line from Donner:

"There are a handful of days in everyone's life that they can point to and say, 'That day changed me. That day helped make me who I am'. They usually happen on big event days; the day you get married, have your first kid. The day you land on Venus. But they can also happen on regular days. In unlikely moments, with events that may seem like nothing at the time, or they're so huge that they literally take your breath away."

So my question is - what were your days like that?


Good thing this question is in the plural otherwise I wouldn't be able to answer it.

Enter at your own risk: self-revelation beneath the cut. )

Don't know what happens from here. Maybe I've missed a day here or there; time will tell.

How about you?

The Challenge:

Post 3 things you've done in your lifetime that you don't think anybody else on your friends list has done. See if anybody else responds with "I've done that." If they have, you need to add another!(2.b., 2.c., etc...) Have your friends cut & paste this into their journal to see what unique things they've done in their life.

I have:

1) Been a guest speaker at a numismatic (that's coin collecting to you people) convention.

2) Been a volunteer on a lion research project in Kenya.

3) Danced in a Bedouin cafe in Egypt.

Zombie meme, plus

Zombie Meme
(Note: I'm cheating on this one. These are the answers I gave to [livejournal.com profile] dthon over in his LJ.)

You are in a mall when the zombies attack. You have:

1. one weapon.
2. one song blasting on the speakers.
3. one famous person to fight alongside you.

* Weapon can be real or fictional; you may assume endless ammo if applicable. Person can be real or fictional.

1. A katana (I've just arrived from feudal Japan and am still dressed as a samurai.)
2. Let's Do the Time Warp Again
3. The Tenth Doctor, who is not dressed as a samurai, but who does have his sonic screwdriver and is wearing chucks. He's far more ready to run than I, but I'm the one with the neck-slicing sword. We'll stick together until we can get back into the TARDIS and figure out why the hell there are zombies in the mall.

I just had the sweetest evening with my sweetheart. We had dinner at Ballroom in front of their outdoor hearth and then just came back here and cuddled and talked and planned. Sweetness. Which was then ended by the necessity of his going home for to attend to his daughter and her gang of 13-year-old friends planning to watch Battlestar Galactica. Yeah, it's unfortunate he has to cut the evening short, but I gotta admit: I like a man who's got his priorities in order that way. Buzz buzz buzz....

Picked up this idea from [livejournal.com profile] willowgreen and it made me happy after yesterday's blues, so I'm doing it, too:

The first five people who reply to this post, and who re-post this challenge: YOU WIN!!!

For your prize, I will send you a gift.

It might be something I've made, or something cool from my hidden stash of obscure grooviness. It might be a rubber duck, or a toy, or a pretty picture, or a book I think you might enjoy. A useful object, a tchotchke, a piece of jewelry, or something else that is taking up room in my house. ([livejournal.com profile] scarlettina's edit: I'll include a note on why I think it's appropriate for you.)

Whatever it is, I promise I will get it to you in 30 days of your posted comment or less, and you must e-mail me your mailing address. Even if you think I already have it.

E-mail your address to me via Live Journal (scarlettina (at) livejournal dot com)

ETA: Five people have responded. Yay! This should be fun. I'll report when projects or gifts from the obscure stash have gone out.
