Name: Alex
Time and date: 5:40pm 1/4/15
Average hours of sleep a night: 8. Any less than this and I am completely useless and will spend the entire day cranky and complaining about how I didnât get 8 hours of sleep.
Last thing I googled: Variations in the electricity act (1994) review Queensland. - not very exciting I know but gimme a break, it was for work.
Nickname: Well Alex is short for Alexander so I guess that counts. Maybe also âhey youâ or âmateâ but everyone gets called that here in Australia.
Birthday: Nice try. I donât have a birthday. I gestated in the air vents of a waste water management plant.
Gender: Bloke
Sexual orientation: Iâm engaged so I guess, anyone who is my fiancĂ©.
Height: 182cm (or 6â on the dot in the old language)
Favorite color: Black. And donât go giving me that âblack isnât a colour, itâs an absence of colourâ crap. I went to art school so Iâve heard it enough times.
One place that makes me happy: lots of different places make me happy. Either home or North Beach, Wollongong. Yes itâs a real place, look it up.
How many blankets do I sleep under: Blankets?! Are you mad? Itâs freaking 30+ degrees (86F for my american friends) here. I usually have just a sheet but I kick it off most nights.
Favorite movie: The light horsemen. I still choke up at the scene where they have to charge the guns at Beersheba. Curse these emotions!!
What Iâm wearing right now: shorts and a sheen of sweat cos itâs hot and I just got home from the office. Donât judge me!!!
Last book you read: The blade itself - joe Abercrombie. You should totally read it too. So freaking good!
Most used phrase(s): hmmm⊠Itâs probably a swear. Usually something like âoh for fucks sakeâ or some other variation. I make a lot of mistakes and am, somehow, always surprised when I make one.
What I last said to a family member: probably teasing my sister about the weather here. She lives in Scotland so she doesnât get nice sunny days any more.
Favorite beverage: Water is always good. XXXX Bitter for the booze option. Itâs an Australian beer, the joke goes âwhy do they call it âXXXXâ? Cos Queenslanders canât spell âbeerâ!â Chortle chortle chortleâŠ.
Favorite food: Vegemite, cheese and tomato on toast. Pretty stereotypical but donât knock it till youâve tried it. Greatest hangover cure too.
Last movie I watched in theaters: Big Hero 6. It was awesome.
Dream vacation: I want to see every country on earth. Maybe just through the planes window for some of the more âunstableâ regions though. Or getting a big convertible â57 Chevy and driving Route 66.
Dream wedding: the one I am currently planning (and trying to pay for). Huge party with all our family and mates.
Dream pet: A tiger but minus the maulings. Maybe a crocodile instead (still no mauling though).
Dream job: My dreams died years ago. At the moment my dream job is anything but my current one. Preferably something that doesnât involve sitting in a blank cubicle and having your soul drained from you little by little every day until one day you wake up and realise youâre retiring and you havenât accomplished a single thing worth celebrating and that you are going to die, unremembered and unloved and soon. That or getting paid to draw. That would be pretty cool.
I tag darth-sebious, blood-of-asaheim, kaulicat & Kjangsta, and anyone else who wants to!
