Bored so I meme. Stolen from [livejournal.com profile] kath_ballantyne

1. What kind of soap is in your bathtub right now. I don't tend to use soap as it dries out my skin and I don't tend to take baths either as I much prefer a shower. But I've got some Radox ocean minerals body wash which I like. The bottle claims it's for men but bollocks to gendered washing products. So stupid.



2. Do you have any watermelon in your refrigerator? No, I don't like melon

3. Is there anything moldy in your refrigerator? I don't think so.

4. Are there any dirty dishes in your sink? Yes. Oops.

5. What would you change about your living room? Maybe make it a bit wider? It's long but not very wide. Other than that it's all good. We have a nice big TV and a comfy sofa as well as a gas fire for days when the radiator doesn't cut it.

6. Are the dishes in your dishwasher clean or dirty? We don't have a dishwasher

7. Do you have a can of mushrooms in your pantry? Canned mushrooms? No. If I'm doing any sort of mushroom dish I'll get some fresh ones.

8. White or wheat bread? Don't tend to keep bread in the house as it tends to go mouldy before I can finish it and we don't have much in the way of freezer space. If I'm out I generally go for brown

9. What is on top of your refrigerator? Nothing as far as I'm aware. Probably dust.

10. What colour is your sofa? Purple

11. What colour or design is on your shower curtain? We have a screen rather than a curtain and it's transparent

12. How many plants are in your home? Uh, a couple? I tend to kill plants so I leave them in the care of [livejournal.com profile] jacqui_hw

13. How many candles are in your home? OMG loads. I have a bit of a scented candle problem. I've got 4 just on my computer desk and we have a bunch more in the living room.

14. Is your bed made right now? Nope

15. Electric or standard can opener? Standad

16. Comet or Soft Scrub? Is this an American thing? I don't understand that reference.

17. Is your closet organized? Not even a little. The closet is where I put things that I don't know where else to put them. God knows what sort of random crap is in there. I keep meaning to sort it out and then never do.

18. What colour is the flashlight that you use the most? I don't even know that we have a working flashlight.

19. What kinds of things are in your junk drawer? Batteries, matches, plastic cutlery

20. Do you drink out of glass or plastic most of the time at home? I drink water out of a mug, wine or juice out of a glass

21. Do you have iced tea made in a pitcher right now? No. Iced tea is an abomination. I tried it once when I was in the US and this did nothing to revise my opinion. Tea should be hot with milk (or just black if it's Earl Grey).

22. If you have a garage, is it cluttered? Don't have one but it would be.

23. Curtains or blinds? Curtains. I have blackout curtains in my room from when I used to work nights. I love them.

24. How many pillows do you sleep with? There's two on the bed but I only really use one of them. The other is just to make it look even.

25. Do you sleep with any lights on at night? Not intentionally. Sometimes I forget to turn one off downstairs when I go to bed.

26. How many ceiling fans are in your home? None. It doesn't really get hot enough here to justify it.

27. How often do you vacuum? Once a week generally

28. Standard toothbrush or electric? The one I use is battery powered so I guess electric?

29. What colour is your toothbrush? Blue and white

30. Do you have a welcome mat on your front porch? We have a mat just inside the front door as we don't have a porch. It's not a welcome mat though. Just one for wiping shoes on.

31. What is in your oven right now? Nothing

32. Is your microwave clean or dirty? It's getting a bit grubby. Could probably do with a clean

33. Is there anything under your bed? Boxes of random crap

34. Chore you hate doing the most? Pretty much all of them tbh

35. What retro items are in your home? Uh...I'm not sure. Our spare room is full of crap spanning our combined many years in fandom. Some of that stuff is probably classed as retro at this point.

36. Do you have a separate room that you use as an office? I tried to turn our spare room into an office briefly when I was working for Random Acts but the wifi signal is pretty terrible at the back of the house so I gave up on that.

37. If you have a yard, who mows it? We have a yard but it's just concrete so nothing to mow

38. Is there anything on your kitchen floor right now? I don't think so

39. How many mirrors are in your home? Four? I think?

40. Do you have any hidden emergency money around your home? Nope. Is that a thing people are supposed to do?

41. What colour are your walls? We rent so they're a very neutral magnolia

42. Which rooms in your house have wallpaper? Everywhere except the kitchen and bathroom I think.

43. Do you have a peephole in your front door? Nope.

44. Do you keep any kind of protection weapons in your home? No.

45. What does your home smell like right now? Well I'm not at home but my bedroom still smells like my pumpkin spice latte scented candle

46. Fave candle scent? I got a collection of different pumpkin candles last year and OMG they are so good. They came from the US and I'm going to stock up on more when I go back next month

47. What kind of pickles (if any) are in your refrigerator right now? None I don't think

48. Who are in the pictures you display? I think there's a couple of photos of me and [livejournal.com profile] jacqui_hw but mostly we have fandom stuff on our walls.

49. What colour is your favourite bible? I don't have a favourite bible. I have various versions from my Theology degree but they're no different to reference books in my mind

50. Do you have plenty of cabinet space in your kitchen? We have enough

51. Ever been on your roof? God no! That one of the upsides of renting. If anything on the roof needs repairing our landlord sends someone to do it

52. Do you own a stereo? No but we have an iPod dock

53. How many TVs do you have? Two. One in the living room and one in the spare room with our PS3 hooked up to it.

54. How many house phones? Just one but I don't even know what the number is. I use my mobile for just about everything.

55. Do you have a housekeeper? LOL

56. What style do you decorate in? We're not allowed to decorate and the furniture that we do have is sort of a mix of styles.

57. Do you like solid colours in furniture or prints? Solid colours

58. Is there a smoke detector in your home? Yeah, I think it's illegal to not have one in a rented property

59. In case of fire, what are the items you would grab if you only could make one quick trip? Probably all my old paper journals from when I was a teenager. Most of everything else is backed up or replaceable

60. Do you know how to work your electrical box? I can change a fuse but that's about it

61. What temperature in your home is most comfortable to you? Warm but not too hot

I looked up the Comet thing. It's some kind of cleaner that comes in powder or liquid form. *shrug* I use bicarb and vinegar and dish soap to clean. It doesn't set off my asthma or migraines.

I drink tea hot with milk too but I do drink Snapples as they taste like peach drink. I can't do Earl Grey though as it tastes like flowers and is not tea. *g* Ruth loves it. We have a whole stack of herbal teas we drink too but I can't call them tea. Because tea is tea with milk.

I want to put more fandom stuff up on our walls. I'd love to get prints of a bunch of my favourite fan art and some of mine and put them up. Hasn't happened though.
