mercy_angel_09Leave a comment saying, "HEADCRAB FLAIL!" and I will give you five words I associate with you. Then post about what they mean to you, along with this, at your journal.
My words came from

travellyr .Disney!
I honestly don't know when my love affair with Disney started. I know it was when I was a child. My mother took us to see the re-released Disney movies in the theaters. (My first real memory of even going to a movie was going to see The Little Mermaid in the old movie theater in Pasco. And yes, I am that old.) I think it was furthered by my dad, who had taped a bunch of the Disney shorts from the Disney Channel back in the day, and who also subscribed to the Disney Channel just so we could see them. Of course, he also worked for Disney (it's why I happen to have a pin shaped like Mickey Mouse's head with "WAZZU" emblazoned across it) back in the day. My first trip to Disneyland came when I was ten, I went again when I was eleven, and then managed to make it to Disney World when I was twelve.
I do have a ridiculous amount of Disney related paraphernalia...which could be either a good thing or a bad thing.
Baking!
I started baking at a very young age. I got my first cookbook when I was five, and spent a lot of time at either my mom or my grandma's elbow. Chocolate chip cookies will forever be my specialty, but I can bake other things.
Scones. Torts. Pies. Cakes. Muffins. Bread. Rolls. Cinnamon rolls.
If I'm not elbow deep in flour, I'm not happy. And yes, my apartment tends to smell really good a lot of the time because there's usually something in the oven.
Archives!
I am a researcher. If I'm not up to my eyeballs in old books or computer files, I'm not really myself. Call me a freak, but I LOVE research papers. I love sitting in front of a pile of books on a frantic search for something, ANYTHING that might be useful. I love clicking in a frenzy and using "Find" searches. Yes, I realize that this makes me pretty abnormal, but I love knowledge and archives are the best way to to do.
(Of course, I'm also perfectly happy doing archive dives for things like fanart and fanfiction, too.)
Wii!
I lurv teh Wii leik OMG SO MUCH.
Because the Wii changed how we PLAY. Sure, while other systems revolutionize WHAT we play, the Wii changed how we play. You know how we used to think that we could help Mario jump by jerking the controller up? Yeah, you can actually do that now. Tilt it to drive your car. Swing it like a sword. With the nunchuck attachment, you can punch. You can dance. You can make your Rabbid sing "Funky Town" in a high pitch squeak.
"Funkeeeeeh Toooooooooown."
You can also use it to motivate yourself to get off your ass and get moving.
Messages!
Okay, maybe I'm a big, huge nerd-face, but I love getting messages. Comments on journal entries. Posts on my wall on Facebook. Memos via email. Hoo-ah for instant communication. Of course the "instant" is completely reliant upon the person you're messaging. I'm also a fan of the late night chat. Things are said that normally wouldn't be said - other times you end up with priceless things like: <D~~~~~~ PEW PEW PEW!
