The Three Things List
15 years ago
General
Another meme I swiped from
veloxfox Looking at myself in a looking glass and hoping others see what I see.
Three names you go by, other than your given name:
1. Zervon. Even non-furs use this name. The name of one of my first D&D characters back in ’74.
2. Tora. My chakat name and a lot easier to remember than Zervon. Since my fursonia is a Japanese Tiger I guess it seemed logical at the time.
3. Rabbit. Very few still call me this as it was my High School track nickname.
Three screen names you've had:
1. Zervon. See above.
2. Chakat Tora. This is my role play fursonia and shi does things I’d most likely never do in the world of reality.
3. RyoOuki. Before furry there was anime. This is the name I use in my anime chat groups. Bonus points if you know where it comes from.
Three physical things you like about yourself:
1. My hair. *looks at dad and son* I still have it. :)
2. My personality. I’m a people person and that goes far in life both at work and play.
3. My health. At my age I appreciate it more and more every day.
Three physical things you don't like about yourself:
1. My eyesight. It isn’t want it used to be, but I still have it so that is a plus.
2. Procrastination. I’m surprised I’ve made it this far in the meme.
3. Shy. While I’m nothing like the person I once was, I still will hesitate when action is required.
Three parts of your heritage:
1. Scotland. Three of my four grandparents were lowland Scots grew tired of herding sheep so the immigrated to the United State to… herd sheep.
2. Netherlands. Where my fourth grandparent immigrated from. At least she had some real skills and did well coming to the United States.
3. I just know there must be someone in my past that is really cool and I hope to find out one day. Still I’m rather happy with the four above that let me be what I am now.
Three things you are wearing right now:
1. T-shirt with a tiger family on it.
2. Shoes! I got shoes.
3. Pants. Sorry to disappoint out there.
Three favorite bands/musical artists:
1. Styx. Yeah, I’m a child of the ‘60’s.
2. Crosby, Stills, and Nash. They are just good!
3. Gordon Lightfoot. Ballads are where it’s at.
Three favorite songs:
1. Come Sail Away by Styx. There is always hope.
2. Southern Cross by Crosby, Stills, and Nash. Reminds me to care for those I have while I have them.
3. Carefree Highway by Gordon Lightfoot. Never let the past slip you by and remember those that got you where you are.
Three things you want in a relationship:
1. Acceptance. We have our differences and those should bring us together and not divide us.
2. Communications. Miss conceptions fade away and hints aren’t needed if you just talk.
3. Understanding. Love flows from understanding that none of us are prefect.
Three physical things about the preferred sex that appeal to you:
1. Tail… Wait humans don’t have a tail. *sigh* Then it must be hair. There is nothing more relaxing than brushing hair.
2. Humor. I’m not the most typical person so they would need a sense of humor to deal with me.
3. Okay, I’ll admit it, I do like breasts. Maybe I want to get back to my inner child.
Three of your favorite hobbies:
1. Writing. So much in my head and so little time to get it out and into someone else’s head. See procrastination above.
2. Reading. I’m encouraged to write when I see others do it so well. Reading also increases my knowledge base to expand what I can write about.
3. Greeting. I like meeting people new and old. To share some small talk or deep discussions.
Three things that scare you:
1. Spiders. But only when they sneak up on me. If I know it is there we are both okay.
2. Traffic. Am I the only person that knows how to drive on the planet? What! Did you just say you were?
3. Being alone. Not a fear as much as a desire to never be in that state.
Three of your everyday essentials:
1. Coffee. It is life and life is coffee.
2. Internet. Okay, I’m a geek, so what. I use it at work. I use it at home. I use it to distribute what I write. I use it to meet people just like you.
3. Clothing. Society tends to frown when I forget this essential.
Three places you want to go on vacation:
1. Antarctica. It is the only continent that I haven’t yet visited.
2. A furry convention that I haven’t been to. Vacation time and money hold me back for now, but someday!
3. Pennsic war in western PA. This is the one vacation where I truly relax with no internet and no cell phone. Just people and of course I bring my own coffee.
Three nicknames you dislike:
1. Scooter. Another of my track and field names. I preferred rabbit.
2. Any of the many ways to miss pronounce my last name.
3. Hey you! I never liked that name, but I’m not really sure they were talking to me.
Three careers you have considered/are considering:
1. Information Technology (IT). Wait that is what I’ve been doing for thirty-two years…
2. Military. I considered doing that back in ’75. Tired it out. Retired from it in ’00.
3. A writer. Still not giving up my day job, but I can dream.
Three ways you are stereotypically a man:
1. I am a stereotype. If I was wealthy I’d be eccentric, but I’m not so I’m simply crazy.
2. I look and dress like a guy so I must be a guy.
3. When I cross dress fursuit I still sound like a guy.
Three things you want to do before you die (The Bucket List):
1. I want to visit Antarctica.
2. I want to bounce a Great Grandchild on my knee and as many more greats as I can after that one.
3. I want to be published so I can give up my day job.
Three things you want to do really badly right now:
1. Play World of Warcraft, but I’m resisting so far.
2. Write, but this is a form of writing I guess.
3. Get rid of the coffee I’ve be drinking while doing this.
