Are there any animals, birds or bugs that you don't like, scare you, or just plain freak you out?

I freak out pretty bad with flying bugs (even if they're harmless like ladybugs or moths). I do not like things that can fly in my face. I'm also not the biggest fan of crickets and similar critters. Thankfully, cockroaches aren't a thing I have to worry about in the Pacific NW (they're more disgusting than scarey). I have no issues with spiders.

 

Who likes to write with fountain pens? Do you have a preferred type of pen?

I love fountain pens - there's just so much variety when it comes to them. I also really like felt tip pens. And the finer the point, the better (I have a set of Uni-ball Signo Bit pens that are .18)

 

What type of cellphone/mobile, music player, reader, tablet, or other gadgets are your babies? What are your opinions on accessories for them? Hard/soft cases, decals, danglies, carriers, etc?

Danglies are amazing. I actually need new ones since the ones on my phone are pretty much about to fall off (I still have a flip phone).

 

What kind of tea do you like?

I tend to go for fruity teas. I really enjoy going to the Queen Mary Tea Room and really like their White Peach Blossom tea. I really don't have a preference over the type of tea (like black, white, etc), though I don't often go for green. I tend to drink it straight (no cream or sugar, though sampling the Cameronian Black at Queen Mary probably would have tasted much better with sugar). I also really like loose leaf teas.

 

I do a lot of resin work, specifically, insects in resin. Would receiving one be horrifying? Okay? Interesting?

Resin work is really neat, and some insect jewelry is really beautiful. So, I wouldn't mind getting something like that.

 

Are there any other perfume, or bath & body companies that you would like to try? Any that you have tried & would like more of? Or any you have tried, but don't want more of?

I'm always looking out for new companies. I would love to try out Arcana's soaps and facial masks. I have one Posset's oil (from a swap) and wouldn't mind trying out more from them. I haven't gotten to try any Nocturne Alchemy scents yet (Seance: SHEN LE). I haven't been able to get any Haunt items since she went to the seasonal releases (I'd love to get my hands on a bar of Goblin soap and Witch-Wife skin glossing oil).

 

Do you enjoy real, old fashioned scary? Not the new-fangled psychological scary...Im thinking dracula, frankenstein, ghosts, mummies, goblins, the disembodied hand...etc...

I do - I grew up looking forward to watching the classics every year (and I'm really annoyed that slasher films are the only things shown). I actually don't have any of the classics on dvd and the one I would like the most is my favorite, The Wolf Man (with Lon Chaney, Jr.; I refuse to watch the remake). But I also really enjoy the psychological stuff (asian horror is really good at that).

 

I know we had a question about mix cds in the q'aire, but if you answered yes to a homemade cd, would you be interested in a themed mix? Such as Halloween classics, or dark and stormy classical, etc. and so forth?

Yes please! I actually don't have much in the way of 'Halloween' themed music, so this would be wonderful.

 

How sick a sense of humour can you cope with?

The only humour I'm really not a fan of is potty humour.

 

If I were going to make you a polymer figurine-or-pendant-or-earrings-or-..., is there any particular thing you'd like more than other things(ex: a tiny 'you', or witch's hat earrings, or a ghost pendant, etc.)?

Figurine-wise: fairies and/or dragons; pendant/earrings: anything goes

 

Would you be interested in a handwritten journal that had stuff for and about you(no, not stalker notations); for example, things about your astrological sign, or birthday, or year you were born or recipes or poetry or pictures? Like, a book that you could read, that was assembled just for you(in my sort of sloppy, lefthanded writing[i will write in print, not cursive, so you can still read it])

That would be beyond amazing.

 

Are there any candies you can't stand, and don't want to see in your box?

I don't do black licorice, and while I do enjoy a good dark chocolate, it's not something I go for often

 

Decorations: can you have them at your desk at work (assuming you have a desk at work) and would you like some?

No desk

 

Are there any books or short stories (or poems) you especially associate with this time of year or always want to reread in autumn?

I read Something Wicked This Way Comes by Ray Bradbury last year around Halloween and will associate it with the season, but I don't really have anything that I want to reread each year (I'm determined to read Dracula for the first time in honor of the season this year).

 

How do you feel about skulls?

Personally, I love skulls and skull motifs on items.

 

Do you like plushies?

Love them

 

Lip balm: tin or tube?

I'm fine with either one

 

Do you prefer physical books, or would some form of e-reader book be okay? And if ebook, do you prefer Kindle, Nook, iBooks, or something else?

Physical books

 

Oh, and are you okay with Graphic Novels/Comics?

I read manga and am a Marvel fan; I would like to know what Wonder Woman storyline is a good one to start with.

 

Jewelry: Gold or Silver?

Either one - I still can't decide which one I like best

 

Whether you do or do not nail polish, would you be interested in nail wraps of any sort? Could be festive or not, any brand (in addition to things like Jamberry, there are plenty of other brands out there).

Not really - I much prefer polish (though some of the Jamberry designs are cute)

 

Do you or would you burn incense? What kind? How about scented (or unscented) candles?

I've been wanting to try out incense. I love candles of all kinds.

 

Are there any things (characters, bad guys, halloween-related-things, fandoms, etc) you absolutely can not stand or don't want in your goodies?

The only thing that comes to mind is Twilight (or anything else she's written) and similar storylines; and 50 Shades (the book was going around at work and so I subjected myself to it to see how bad it was; I got through chapter 9 and couldn't read anymore. Have people never read good smut? Considering it's a Twilight fanfiction with changes to make it legal to publish, it's not a big surprise).

 

Wishlists: I do have a ThinkGeek wishlist (just use my name, city/state to find it on the site)
