Get to know me: meme (It's all the rage!)
13 years ago
Stolen from... well, numerous people. I have to wake up in 4 hours for a flight to Indiana, but I'm not remotely tired so a meme is in order. Naturally!
1. We all know what we call you, what about the folks at home? Whats your name?
Some people call me.... Eric. Sorry, you're not getting a last name, it'll cost you!
2. How tall are you?
6'4", blame my father.
3. Natural hair color? (if you can remember it)
Brown.
3. What about eye color?
Hazel.
4. What orientation are you?
I've often contemplated this and have pretty well confirmed I'm straight. I'm more than comfortable around people of all sorts, but dudes just don't stir me. ;)
5. Are you single, taken, or undecided?
Currently in a relationship for a little over a month now.
6. What do you do in your spare time?
I'm a total gearhead. I usually spend the majority of my free time wrenching on cars. This often gets put to use working on cars for friends, but I typically enjoy working on my own toys... my time constraints are very loose.
7. What's your job?
I'm a product performance specialist for AGCO Corporation, the third largest agricultural equipment manufacturer in the world. Long story short, the primary purpose of my job is to process warranty claims, publish service bulletins, process pre-delivery inspection forms and maintain an online knowledge database. Aside from the boring work, I also serve as one of the leading experts on our large square balers and usually get dragged into all sorts of odd jobs because of it.
8. What's one thing you like about yourself?
On a number of occasions I've heard people describe me as stoic and level headed, and while I haven't mulled over it much before, I do take pride in that. Numerous people have turned to me for advice or expertise and while there are times I don't care to mull over something, I do take pride in that people consider me to be knowledgeable and trustworthy enough to be worthy of that privilege.
9. Alright, now what about something you dislike about yourself?
I tend to get stressed and annoyed easily which makes me a very irritable and snappy person to be around. There have been numerous times I've found myself snap at someone for nothing and I instantly regret responding in such a fashion.
10. What's some things your friends noticed about you when they first met you?
Good god I'm tall. :P
11. Of what faith/religion are you(if any at all?)
I can't say I sway towards a particular faith or religion. As far as beliefs, I do tend to sway towards shamanism for guidance, but I encompass a number of beliefs and ideals from various sources.
12. Do you drink?
Only on social settings. Typically I only drink to get a buzz, but at Furry Fiesta I was flirting with disaster Sunday night.
13. Do you smoke?
The occasional hookah or cigar in a social setting. Otherwise I don't smoke at all.
14. What are your fears?
As shallow as it sounds, financial ruin. That's a load of stink I just don't need in my life. A close second is to be completely alone.
15. What are your dreams/goals?
Someday I'd like to semi-professionally race in motorsports. Or at least have the freedom to race at a professional level.
16. Ever had any crushes/ex's in the past/present?
I've had numerous crushes in the past, and still have ex's to this day... those don't tend to go away.
17. Who's your best bud?
A local friend of mine named Tim. Within the fandom, Kyro would have to be the poor soul. ;)
18. Alright, you got the cravin' for munchies, what'cha reachin' for?
Peanut butter sandwich or string cheese.
19. Favorite drink?
Alcoholic: Blue Moon
Non-alcoholic: Mountain Dew
20. Favorite color?
Blue or orange.
21. If you had any super power, what would it be?
Pff, easy! The ability to take the form of any creature.
22. Favorite movie?
Blazing Saddles
23. Least favorite food?
Italian food.
24. Quick! You have only one meal left before you die!!! What is it?
Super Sonic Cheeseburger... keeping it simple and quick.
25. What do you drive/wish you drove?
I have three drivers: a 1985 C-10 Chevy pickup, a 1987 Chrysler Conquest, and a 1983 Honda XL600R. Gearhead, remember?
I'd really love a Porsche 911 GT3, but it wouldn't be a daily driver.
26. Most disliked bug?
Spiders.
27. Most hated pet peeves?
This is something that grew from my job... asking for expert advice, then doing what I advise you not to do because it won't work or completely ignoring explicit instructions that will work, then act as though I was of no help.
28. Dislike in life?
Gas prices... the truck is expensive to feed, but it's worth it!
29. Most annoying?
Internet trolls.
30. Most disliked TV show?
Biased news media. This seems to be a rampant problem anymore... only reporting what makes for a good story and leaving out crucial details.

And I'm not any one "religion" in fact I rather dislike that word. But I do lean toward the Wiccan point of view with lots of others mixed in.
Always nice to get to know pack members, both new and old!
