Right! I'm feeling pretty good right now, life is not sucking, and therefore I wish to do something silly. I got this meme off of Ysabet's LJ (hi Ysa!).

THREE THINGS YOU DON'T LIKE ABOUT YOURSELF:
1. I'm lazy.
2. Way too many things go straight over my head. Subtext? What subtext?
3. I haven't got much willpower. Well... yeah, I've got willpower. It's WON'T-power I lack. Instant gratification, here I come!

THREE THINGS YOU ARE WEARING RIGHT NOW:
1. A pair of silver sleeper earrings.

TWO TRUTHS AND A LIE
1. I looked Chinese when I was born - black hair and jaundice.

1. A beautiful smile.
2. Muscles. Yum.
