I’m 5’3″ and Alan is 6’3″.

I’ve met Neil Young and Dennis Wilson (the Beach Boy who died – Your mom and I went sailing on his boat back in the day.)

I can’t whistle or snap my fingers OR do a cartwheel.

You and I had an immediate and irrevocable bond from the day you were born.

[Reply]

Aww! Auntie Nubs comment for the win!

I used to have a horrible time standing still while brushing my teeth. I found that using an electric toothbrush kept me from wandering so much.

I habitually refresh certain websites out of a habit, even if I’m working on 5 projects at once.

Once I saw Liv Tyler in her underwear (in person)! She was shopping at Trashy Diva, and didn’t realize others were in the store and had the curtain to her dressing room open as she talked to a friend.

[Reply]

I am obsessed with smoking.
I’m one and a half inches away from being considered a dwarf.
People over 70 years old fascinate me.
One look at me, you would think I’m disorganized… but actually I’m the most organized person that I know.

Love, Olla

These are cute! We have the tooth brushing thing in common.. and the boyfriend thing! I’m 5’5” and he’s 6’7”. Yowza. (i’m a size 6.5 and he’s a 13)

[Reply]

I have large feet… I’m 5’6″ with ladies’ size 10 cloppers. And my boyfriend is 6’4″ and a size 10 in mens’ shoes.
I’ve been obsessed with the colors green and purple my whole life. My least favorite color is pepto-bismol pink.
I have a complete inability to multitask.
I put cinnamon on just about everything. Including meat. It’s good, I swear
Whenever I’m trying to be serious, people laugh at me. Apparently it’s funny.
I love the faces of old people, because they have so much character.
I hate bell peppers more than almost any other food.
I happen to things, they don’t happen to me.

[Reply]

I’m 5’9″ in my stockinged feet.

I’m a redhead and kinda freckled.

I have a star shaped mole (birthmark) on my right arm.

I have three tattoos and love all of them; angel at the top of my left arm, green eyed she wolf on the opposite side and a phoenix in the lower middle of my back.

Love mayonnaise but mushrooms and bread and butter pudding are evil.

Favourite colour is green.

I love my new Moleskine 2009 Diary.

I’m left handed but can only use a mouse right handed. And left handed implements I can’t use either.

Ted Hughes and Rupert Brooke are my all time favourite poets.

I feel like I wrote this minus one, three and seven!

All my brothers are over 6’2 and I’m slightly taller than 5’2

I don’t have a home(town)

I keep my house cold in the winter, and walk around in shorts and a tank top with thigh high scoks and a permanent blanket, basically.

I use the word “the” a lot, when it really is unnecessary. I’ve been told it’s addicting?

I’ve also been told I scamper.

I am partial to all things requiring postage stamps.

None of my best friends live in the same time zone

I assume all hot chocolate comes with whipped cream, a cherry, and a candy cane

I can speak 4 languages, and sign one

I have dual citizenship, neither of which are from the country I currently inhabit.

[Reply]

1. I have elaborate daydreams – like entering my own little fantasy world, where I’m married to Mos Def.

8. Favourite song lyric: “I don’t believe you’re leaving cos me and Charles Manson like the same ice-cream” from Tear in your Hand by Tori Amos.

9. I have 5 older siblings, 3 nephews, 2 nieces, and another one on the way.

10. I’m going to be the best (wo)man at my brother’s wedding in Feb 2009.

[Reply]

curves: I am a lefty! Yes to soulmates!

Auntie: And! We both like goats, shoe shopping, ice cream and exploring NY. We were meant to be!

Ashe Mischief: I can totally relate to constantly refreshing the same websites…maybe it’s just a needed distraction. And that’s so awesome that you saw Liv Tyler! Moments like that make us realize that celebrities are really just like everyone else.

olla: I admit that I laughed at the dwarf part…I’m short but not abnormally short…but because my boyfriend is so much taller, he calls me a ‘jumbo dwarf!’

SammyDoll: Yay for small feet!! There aren’t many of them out there anymore!

Annie: Same here…I left handed, but I wasn’t raised with special treatment, so I learned how to use right-handed can openers, scissors, mouses, etc. That’s awesome that you’ve already picked up your 09 Moleskine, too!

MegamiD: Nice work! These lists are fun…

eleanor: Your is such a good list! Especially the gay men & stripes part.

Breezy: Sharks and fake tans! HAHA! Agreed.

Staar: that is so awesome that you’ve seen the Queen! I’ve been watching a lot of t.v. specials on the royal family lately…she seems so genuine.

Dawn: FOUR languages AND signing? AND dual citizenship?! You’re a woman of the world!

[Reply]

Haha I meant 1,2 and 7. I cannot wear yellow or brown to save my life.

I used to be far more fluent than I currently am. I really would like to learn Arabic.

I hope that in 3 years I can apply for U.S. Citizenship and that will make 3

[Reply]

I find growing up very, very exciting.

Even though I’m not quite 5″7, I’ve spent most of my life feeling too tall; I don’t slouch, but I never wear heels.

I loveloveLOVE riding in city buses. Also, overly-long car rides!

I speak four languages & write secrets using the cyrillic alphabet.

Three years ago, my straight hair suddenly went all curly on me. (I’m not complaining.)

I love warm earth tones — browns, oranges, greens. Also purple & turquoise. I never know how to wear black.

I can only ever read one book at a time.

When I was very small, my best friend & I had a made-up language we called ‘English’ — English not being our mother tongue. It consisted mostly of very deep & guttural sounds.

I love black coffee.

I have a full-blown addiction to exclamation points & am trying VERY HARD to get it under control. (!!)

[Reply]

Ten things:

1.- I learned to read in English before I learned to read in Spanish. Spanish is my mother tongue.

2.- I used to be able to write with my toes.

4.- I have a major lion mane, sign of a major Leo ^^

5.- I can’t drive to save my life, however I own a little red car

6.- I’m a size 6 shoe

7.- I love extremely long dresses that I always have to hem because they are too long for me

8.- Sometimes I wish I was studying Graphic Design instead of Engineering, then I think of all the things designers carry and I’m happier in Engineering

9.- I can’t stand avocados or strawberries

10.- I make kick ass spaghetti

[Reply]

1. I have an insane fear of falling down stairs

2. I love satsumas so much I eat them until I feel ill from it.

4. I have so many pairs of beautiful heels but I’m so rubbish at walking in them

5. I still get just as excited for Christmas now as I did when I was a kid.

6. I dyed my hair a deep blue tonight. I also cut it myself for the first time and it looks amazingly good.

7. Sometimes my photography degree makes me hate photography.

8. If I could learn any other language it would be Yiddish. (I should get onto that)

9. I will watch the Christmas Special of ANY TV show. I love Christmas Specials so much.

10. I am incapable of taking a bus ride without falling asleep. It worries me.

[Reply]

hmm i love brown and mustard ( the color and the condiment!) i am 4’10 so we have our cute shortness in common

[Reply]

i am a toothbrush wanderer too – it’s far too boring standing in one spot for that long!

[Reply]

I’m Liz. Or Elizabeth Ilia. I’m a student, I’m only in high school but when I graduate in june I’m wanting to go to the Vancouver Art Institute and take graphic design and fashion marketing.
1. I am capable of staying up till 3AM playing Call Of Duty.
2. I have a really weird dark sense of humor.

4. I’m making a shirt with “This is my trendy helvetica shirt” screen printed on it. 1/3 kids in my school have a helvetica shirt.

6. I have had pink, blue, red, purple, orange, green and black hair. I have to cut it to a pixie cut every year because I damage it so much with bleach.
That’s all I can think of right now.

[Reply]

I too do EVERYTHING left handed except using a mouse.

[Reply]

Well, my high school uniform colours were mustard yellow and brown – how depressing! (In Australia we have to wear uniforms…) and very unflattering.

[Reply]

oh nubby, i am such a fan of lists and i read every darling’s response-

1. i don’t cook. EVER. (i loathe it and am too scattered to actually focus on putting things together to make some fantastic meal- but i do enjoy eating other people’s gourmets!)
2. i have a hard time waking up in the morning, (which is why i feel lucky to have a job i don’t have to be at until 11!) if there is somewhere important to be, i have to set three alarm clocks, or bribe a friend to help wake me up, or even sleep on the floor! (i have been known to get up, turn off the alarm clock and go right back into bed!)
3. i always coordinate my outfits to my underwear
4. i have a thing for vintage black patent leather
5. haircuts are therapy
6. photo shoots are my fun and all i ever think about and want to be doing
7. i am a really good online bargain shopper, i rarely ever buy anything at full price or in an actual store
8. i dream of being a chihuahua owner
9. i collect stockings, vintage brooches, black vintage dresses, and vintage purses
10. i am extremely picky with everything in my life- in fact, i would rather have nothing than not have the perfect thing (or what i can afford for the moment) richard wayne and i had no furniture until last night when we purchased this sofa (with an extreme discount!) this also leads visitors at my home to think i lead a minimalist life. (but now you know the truth, wink.)

[Reply]

So cute. Um… what makes me unique? I am trying to think of stuff I haven’t written about online before, & IT’S VERY DIFFICULT!

* My first sexual encounter happened while Schindler’s List played on television.

* I like buying books I already know (like The Little Prince, Charlie & The Chocolate Factory & Peter Pan) in French & German & reading them aloud to practice.

* I have retarded food rituals, like for example I cannot just eat an apple (way too uncivilised), I have to cut it into sections.
* I HATE BANANAS. HATE. HATE!
* I aspire to being a fucking eccentric old weirdo.
* You are one of my very very very favourite people. <3

It happened again a few days later when I rode another horse and since then I keep away from them.

I only cut my hair in foreign country’s, its a great souvenir.

; i have a genetically missing tooth–the baby one fell out and there was no adult one to grow in (my dad is missing the same one).

; i used to have a severe phobia of the gas station when i was younger.

; i grew up without a television, so now that i am an adult on my own i love watching old tv shows on dvd from start to finish (friends, seinfeld, etc) to catch up on all the pop culture references i’ve missed.

; libraries calm me down more then anything else–i also am able to memorize libraries and grocery stores, which makes finding things like second nature to me and scares other people when i know exactly where something is.

; my virginity was lost a few hours after a pro-abstinence assembly in high school.

; i was born on the leo-virgo cusp. just discovered that recently–i always thought i was pure leo, but this makes much more sense.

; i live about 500 feet from a japanese restaurant, so i eat lunch there maybe twice a week. i always order the spicy tuna nigiri, which is just raw tuna, srachia hot sauce, and sushi rice. i like to dip it in a lot of soy sauce and if i don’t eat this at least once a week i go through withdrawls.

; i am allergic to celery. i suspect i am allergic to more things, but i haven’t found out what they are yet.

; rap is my favorite music genre and i love loud club music. if i could be reincarnated i would love to come back as a rap/hip-hop star.

; i live in one of the snowiest spots in the USA. and i hate the snow (love the snow days, i suppose…)

[Reply]

Kelly: That’s so brave. I can’t imagine moving somewhere without visiting a bunch of times first! But riding the cable car every day sounds pretty magical….

Oh Carolina!: I agree with the Wikipedia part. It will be the dead of night and I’ll have a weird question pop into my head that I don’t know the answer to and look it up on my laptop!

emily: That memory thing is pretty cool. Does it work for tests also?

I’m the same size shoe as you =P
Me and my boy are in the same boat as you and Lee:
I’m 5’2″{same height as prince!) and he is 6’7″

Brown and yellow were my primary school uniform colors =( I can’t wear either of them now! What a hideous combination.

So envious of Vanilla Ice meeting.
I’ve met MJ 3 times though, hung out with him in OZ.
He is divine!

1. I have naturally curly hair, because of this I often dreamed of plastic surgery procedures that could make my hair straight as a child, I have since embraced the curls.
2. I have to have some sort of music or movie on in the background when I am working. Or a podcast (especially from TheMoth.org)
3. Everytime I remove my socks I have to remove the fuzz from between my toes. It’s quite the ocd.
4. I have a glass pumpkin jar filled with Sharpies, yet I hardly ever use them.
5. I have an over abundance of art supplies and office supplies in general actually.
6. I have a scar underneath my chin, and I have no idea where it came from.
7. I carry about 5 different notebooks in my purse at all times.
8. I was taking pictures for a Documentary photo class in Old Town Sacramento a few years ago when a little old man and his very large (read: muscles) friend came around a corner and looked at me like I should drop dead. They walked away and a few minutes later I saw the little old man being interviewed at a restaurant. He was George Carlin and he thought I was paparrazi. >.<
9. I spend most of my time working on a site where I interview artists (including you! I’ll be posting your archived interview from addmyartjournal this weekend I believe…).
10. I once spent three hours standing in front of an Irving Norman (http://www.irvingnorman.com/index.htm) painting in a museum. It was gorgeous and so detailed.

1. I went to a magnet math and science middle school.
2. Now I’m studying to become a violinist.
3. Photography and food are two of my greatest passions, although I love making things in general.
4. I have two cats. My exboyfriend and I found them in his backyard, but when we broke up I got to keep them.
5. I have bad feet, so I can’t stand or walk for too long before it starts hurting.
6. I love thrift shops.
7. Eventually I want to completely revamp my wardrobe, but for the time being I tend to dress like a 12 year old boy on most days.
8. But I dress nice when it counts!
9. I hate doing the dishes. I’ll cook for almost anyone if they do my dishes.
10. Even though music is my life, I find it extremely difficult for me to talk to people about it.

And I love how you ask your readers questions! I’ve been following your Flickr for a while but never thought to check out the blog until more recently.

6) I used to hate pink and now I like it..

10 things:

* I discovered NubbyTwiglet.com through Gala Darling, and have been reading both religiously for over a year now.

* I design and make a good portion of my own jewelry.

* I’m getting married soon… But no one except the boy and I knows when.

* I’m almost done with my blog design & am launching a blog as soon as it’s complete! (Thanks for the inspiration, Nubs and Gala!)

I am a student (hooray for foreign languages and literatures!).

The left side of my body practically useless (with an exception to typing). I love my right side so much, I tend to only wear bracelets on my right arm and carry bags on my right shoulder.

I thoroughly enjoy music with lots of tuba and the dances that accopany.

I think I am falling in love and I’m loving it

I own a baby pink flying V shaped ukulele

When I was little, my Dad was learning french so I learned to count to 100 in French before I could do it in English

I buy piles of old encyclopedias from second hand stores and collect the pictures for my collages

I love playing Mortal Kombat Tetris

* I speak 3 languages and am learning a 4th one as well as learning old english and middle high german for my studies, as well as having learnt latin (doesn’t count as a language in my book). as a result of this I’m horribly scatterbrained. when I read old english out loud, I read the “Y”s as “U”s, cause they are “U”s in the cyrillic alphabet. when I transcribe english to IPA, I use cyrillic “L”s. when I can’t remember the russian dative plural ending, I use the french one. I use the french personal pronouns instead of the russian ones. and when I can’t come up with the french verb flexion, I use latin. the only language I still speak pretty clearly and hardly ever really mess up is english. but my native language is german.

* but still, my goal is to speak 6 languages one day. on top of german, english, russian and french, I want to learn czech and either italian or chinese. I hear the chinese grammar is simple as hell. that’d be nice for a change.

* I have a red dot under my eye. I have no idea what it is.

* I can’t tie bows or whistle. the whistling bothers me more.

* I’m a vegetarian who lost her virginity to a butcher.

* I have a fetish with veins. especially on arms.

* my other fetish are collarbones.

* my hair and fingernails grow abnormally fast. my hair is below my butt, and I’m 5’10″.

when i was a really young kid, i used to imitate Michael Jackson’s dance moves (but i am no where near a dancer, or coordinated, or anything like that). i had a glittery glove and a toy microphone and a huge life-sized cardboard stand up poster of him in my room. his head fell off from moving it around so much, or i’d still have it. i think it’s cool that you openly adore him.

I am a 19-year old philosophy major with an owl tattoo covering most of the right side of my torso. My septum and nipples are both pierced. I guess I kind of like pain? Except not really, I just think the intensity of it is invigorating.

I’m not all that unique actually. I wouldn’t be at all surprised to find out that I’m actually a dime a dozen.

Then again…there are few female philosophers.

The information here is great. I will invite my friends here.

I am righ handed and find that the older I get I use my lefthand more and more…maybe it’s just life.
