I had a wonderful idea for a new entry, but it up and left me this morning before I woke up. It was a good idea. I hope it writes.
Because of this lack of newly brilliant ideas, I decided…what can I do to stimulate my readers? Within reason that is. Well, why not write an entire blog entry devoted to myself! I find myself getting a lot of interesting [and creepy] questions about me and my personal life, so I decided to set some time aside to answer some of these questions by posting some inconsequential information about yours truly. So, here’s a list, since I like them so much:
- My name is Sarah, not Rose- Not sure why but people seem to get my user name all jumbled.
- I love, love, LOVE The Monkees. I am obsessed with all the episodes, all the music, and the guys in the band.
- I am very fond of having birds as pets. I think they make the best companions ever.
- I hate watermelon flavored anything. Disgusting.
- I am a HARDCORE adventure gamer. I love Sierra, LucasArts, and every single adventure game I’ve found on Abandonia or GOG.com. I am pretty well rounded when it comes to gaming, but my first gaming love is the PC adventure game. I love them so much. SO much.
- I collect Disney animated features. I have a vast collection ranging from Snow White to Mulan, where I stopped collecting. Need to borrow a Disney animated feature? I probably have it.
- I could probably live on Chile_Relleno Burritos.
- Before my Dad died, I could barely draw a stick figure. After he passed on, I found myself able to draw. Weird.
- I love going to Taco Bell at 2am for no reason. ….Sometimes the reason is a cheesy gordita crunch, though.
- I collect clocks. They are amazing!
- I could eat sushi every day, and never tire of it.
- Yes, the bird tattoos hurt. I didn’t bawl, but I did feel the sensation of pain. It’s pretty uncommon that people don’t feel that sensation- whether it hurts or not is up to them, but mine DID hurt.
- I used to have a a very poor self image of myself, so to build my confidence and mask what I thought I looked like, I would dye my hair whacky colors.
- I love my computer. My computer will love me unconditiona–…..WTF A VIRUS!?!
And here are some frequently asked questions which I never answer, but decided to answer.
What does your name mean?
It’s an homage to Grim Fandango, a LucasArts adventure game made in the late 90s.
Will you date me?
Probably not.
What is your favorite adventure game, like, ever?
My faaaaaavorite adventure game ever is Kings Quest 3, but my favorite series of adventure games is Space Quest.
What is your favorite side scroller?
Aladdin, specifically for the Sega Genesis. Aladdin for the SNES sucks.
What did you want to be when you were young?
An eggplant.
Phew! And there you have it folks, more useless information than you can get your hands on! I hope you enjoyed these fun little facts. Maybe now you will have a better idea of who PushingUpRoses is. Or maybe not. Either way, I love eggplant.
