100 Questions
9 years ago
Most of you know this pig can't resist a good quiz. ...or even a bad quiz. ...or peanut butter, but that's a different story.
001. Real Name: Rowan Gruffydd Bojog
002. Nickname[s]: Rowan. I also have a spirit name, and I am hella not going to post it here, haha.
004. Male Or Female: Male
005. Elementary: A little kid in a little school in Kentucky. It was the 1980s, so I dressed in layers and bright colors, and my voice was very slow to change, so I was often teased for "sounding like a girl." But people seemed to like me.
006. Middle School: Scrawny kid afraid he was gay, still in Kentucky. I wound up making friends with the rich, popular kids- as well as a lot of the poor, inner-city kids. So looking back I was really popular, I was just scared to death most of the time.
007. High School: All my middle-school friends went somewhere else. In the new school the rich and popular kids HATED me and treated me like crap for being gay (and I hadn't even admitted it to myself yet, let alone come out). I'll never figure out why the rich and popular kids loved me in middle school but another group of equally privileged kids hated me in high school... it was a super dark time, but not having friends meant I worked really hard and became kind of a badass at the clarinet.
007A. College: Went to a big university with a top-notch music school. Came out of the closet, made great friends, and learned so much about performing. The down-side was I came into college believing I was a badass and would always be a badass, so I didn't work very hard, and I fell back to being just average for my age.
008. Hair Color: Light brown / dark blond
009. Long Or Short: For the past many many years I've had "hobbit hair," just kinda floppy and curly and does what it wants. It's a bit shorter now but still does what it wants.
010. Loud or Quiet: I'm a pretty quiet, retiring type. My favorite days are spent at home. I'm telling you guys, I'm a hobbit.
011. Sweats Or Jeans: Sweats, or just a bathrobe.
012. Phone Or Camera: Yeah no. Technology is noisy and distracting and stresses me out. I mentioned I'm a hobbit, right? XD
013. Health Freak: Cletis and I are sedentary and don't exercise, so we're both rather fat, but we eat VERY healthy- organic, cruelty-free when possible, predominantly anti-cancer foods, also heart-healthy foods with no trans fats.
014. Drink Or Smoke: Used to drink lots. Cletis got gout though, so now it's just a glass or two of wine a day. We smoke pot when we can get it, but it's not legal in Texas yet, so not really.
015. Do You Have A Crush On Someone: Cletis and Sam Gamgee. I'm not gonna lie.
016. Political orientation: Pro gay marriage, pro universal healthcare. Otherwise... politics are not my problem. They're far away in DC spinning their webs- I say let them. I thrived under Carter, Reagan, the Bushes, Clinton, and Obama. Whoever the next president is, I will thrive.
017. Piercings: Used to have pierced ears, now I'm not pierced anywhere.
018. Tattoos: I am very weird about it- I can't stand the thought of someone doing something permanent to my body, even if it's my own decision. It panics me and I'd just rather not. I don't mind them on other people, though, and Cletis has one.
HAVE YOU EVER [BEEN IN]:
019. Airplane: Yeah before I was 2 months old I was flying. It's not my favorite thing but sometimes it's necessary.
020. Car Accident: Several, but none with any serious injuries.
021. Fist Fight: A kid hit me in 3rd grade. I'm not a violent person. See above = Hobbit.
FIRSTS:
022. First piercing: ears, sophomore year of college. Took them out a few years after grad school.
023. First Best Friend: A little girl at church and I would laugh about poop a lot when we were 3.
024. First Instrument Played: Piano, age 5.
025. First award: Won the science fair in 2nd grade, won the spelling bee many times through school.
026. First Crush: A guy in middle school. He was big and loud and funny. I wanted to cuddle with him in bed.
027. First Language: English
028. First Big Vacation: I was born in Japan, then lived in California, then traveled across the country by the time I was 2. Disney world wasn't such a big deal after that.
LASTS:
029. Last Person you talked to online or in real life: Cletis. Duh, he's my husband.
030. Last Person you texted: A flute player friend of mine.
031. Last Person You Watched: ??? I just saw Cletis walk past on his way to the office... ?
032. Last Food You Ate: Delicious french toast Cletis made.
033. Last Movie You Watched: I really don't watch movies. Trying to remember.... I think about a year ago I watched Polyester with a friend.
034. Last Song You listened To: Celtic / Minstrel / Tavern music we have on Pandora, to make the house feel like a fantasy.
035. Last Thing You Bought: Groceries!
036. Last Person You Hugged: Cletis! I hugged his belly with my arms and hugged his dick with my lips.
FAVES:
037. Food: I avoid pork, but not 100%. Otherwise, everything. Seriously I enjoy every type of food except stuff that's just gross and people eat it for bragging-rights (durian, ghost chili, tripe, chitlins, etc etc).
038. Drinks: Tea of all sorts.
038A. Cocktails: I love cocktails of all varieties, but I hate Cynar, Campari, and scotch. Sorry bout it.
039. Clothing: I most love soft pants and light shirts. So I'm usually in sweats or pajama-pants, and a t-shirt.
040. Book: Lord of the Rings. I could live with ONLY Lord of the Rings, and I couldn't be happy without it.
041. Color: Dark blue-violet. Some call it "indigo," but not everyone does.
042. Flower: Balloon flower.
043: Music: Richard Strauss, Gustav Mahler.
044. Movies: You guessed it- Lord of the Rings.
045. Shoes: None, for obvious reasons.
046. Subjects: In school, music. In conversation, magic and dream-work. Of experiments, big helpless donkeys (sorry Cletis).

070. Listening To: Celtic / Minstrel / Tavern music on Pandora.
071. Plans For Tomorrow/Today: Get drunk by lunch-time (it's a day off).
072. Waiting for: The chance to move out of Mordor (Texas desert).
YOUR FUTURE:
073. Want to have kids? Nope. Kids are loud and messy and ungrateful. Cletis would be a kickass father, but I would never love kids as much as I love him- and kids should have parents who put them first.
074. Want To Get Married: Already married!
075. Careers in mind: Orchestral Musician- oh hey look, I am already!
WHICH IS MORE ATTRACTIVE IN A MAN :
076. Lips Or Eyes: Eyes.
077. Shorter Or Taller: Taller.
078. Romantic Or Spontaneous: Yeah dumb. You can be both.
079. Nice Stomach Or Nice Arms: A man's gotta have at least a bit of a gut for me to pay attention to him. What can I say?
080. Sensitive Or Loud: Sensitive because loud is annoying.
081. Hookup Or Relationship: Why can't it be both?
082. Troublemaker Or Hesitant: Do you just fucking choose random attributes and set them in opposition when they really aren't?
HAVE YOU EVER:
083. Lost Glasses/Contacts: Probably? I lost the memory of it, too.
084. Ran Away From Home: That should be "Have you ever *run away from home." Making mistakes like that in conversation is forgivable, but not when you had the time to look it up, dipshit. Learn a new language. Since you don't know English, you're starting from square one no matter what.
085. Held A Weapon, For Self Defense: I've picked up a sword when I was afraid someone had broken into the house, but there was no one there, so I've never used one.
086. Killed Somebody: No.
087. Broken Someone's Heart: Yep. That's what happens when you're a stupid, lovesick kid and you rush into the wrong relationship... twice. Either you break their heart or they break yours.
088. Been Mistaken for the Opposite Gender: All my life, because I am polite and speak quietly. However... as a big man with a beard, people don't make that mistake in person.
DO YOU BELIEVE IN:
090. Yourself: Yes.
091. Miracles: Yes.
092. Love At First Sight: Maybe? Cletis and I fell in love at first sight and agreed to marry within days of meeting each other- and now we're married and have been together 7 years. But... we also spent months pouring out our hearts to each other in instant messages before we met, so... it may not really count.
093. Heaven: Yes. I don't know what it is... it may be different for everyone, or it may be an actual place we all go together.
093A. Hell: No. People may go through hell on earth, but that's all.
094. Santa Claus: I will believe in him when he's banging my husband. Until then I deny him- I challenge him to appear. Come on bitch let's do this.
095. There was supposed to be something here... but nope no 95. (Whoever made this quiz... you are not clever.)
096. Magic: Yes. Religion is a kind of magic. Tarot cards often work. Astral projection, collective unconscious, miracles, hypnotism, prayer, visualization, psychic phenomena- I've experienced too much in this life to believe otherwise.
ANSWER TRUTHFULLY:
097. Is There One Person You Wanna Be With, Right Now: Yes, and stop capitalizing every word.
098. Are you seriously happy where you are in life: This is a choice we make. Often I am.
099. Do You Believe In God: I believe in God, but not the way people think of God. I believe in Jesus, but not the same way most Christians do. I believe in cosmic powers separate from God. I believe in the Valar. I believe in Angels. I believe in the spiritual forces I have met outside of myself and in the inner world. There is more in this universe than atheism, christianity, wicca/paganism, science, or any other kind of magic can explain- and we've lost touch with it. Find your own way. I'm being serious.
100. Post As 100 Truths And Tag Five People: I owe you shit. I'm calling it 100 Questions and tagging zero.
Is it tldr? Maybe. But I had fun and that's the whole point! You should fill it out, too- especially if you read this far!
