1. How has LJ changed your life?
I am now freakishly up to the minute on celebrity news due to ONTD? I guess I've met some lovely people on LJ, and gotten to know others better through LJ.

2. What do you do before bedtime?
Brush my teeth, take a Claritin, put it in my retainers, put on carmex, put lotion on my hands and feet, and snuggle in.

3. Aliens: out there or simply figments of batty people's imaginations?
I feel that it's a bit self-important to believe that we're the only sentient beings in the enormity of the universe. However: if they're out there, okay, if they're not, okay.

4. Have you ever had your heart broken?
Not too seriously.

5. Which is more blessed, loving someone or being loved by someone?
I agree with snappleson- having both is truly blessed.

6. Are you a "good girl" or a "bad girl"?
Oh holy jeez, a good girl all the way. Aside from my sailors' mouth, I could be a nun or a kindergarten teacher.

7. If the person you secretly like is already attached, what would you do?
Pine.

8. Is there anything that has made you unhappy these days?
Monetary worries.

9. Is there anything that has made you really happy these days?
Being home with my family for the summer, my dog, my lovely friends.

10. Is being tagged fun?
It can be. Sometimes it's intimidating.

11. Do you comment all the entries of your flist?
About 85% of the posts on my flist are from ONTD, so absolutely not. I try to comment on peoples' posts when I feel I have something important to add, or to toss in some encouragement or something.

12. Who are currently the most important people to you?
My family and dearest friends.

13. What kind of person do you think the person who tagged you is?
I think Ollie is positively delightful.

14. Would you rather be single and rich or married but poor?
You can be married and unhappy. I'm single and happy, so being rich would be like... the sundae toppings on my life.

15. How many children do you want to have, if any?
At least two, no more than five. Five is my absolute limit. My ideal number is four.

16. What's better: to give or to receive?
While I have a really hard time with it, I love giving presents that I consider perfect and appropriate. I do like receiving, though.

17. If you fall in love with two people simultaneously, who would you pick?
Jeez, there are like, a thousand variables with this. However, I really don't think you can be in love, truly in love, with two people at once. You can love more than one, yes, but I think you're in love with only one at a time.

18. Would you have 100% safe sex with a stranger for $10,000,000?
... Yes? I think? For ten million I'm pretty sure I would.

19. Do you plan things or let them happen?
Plan. Definitely a planner. I hate being blindsided. I don't even go to new restaurants without checking the menu online to prepare what I'll order.

20. If The Doctor offered to take you away in the TARDIS today, would you go?
Not with David Tennant, I wouldn't.

I laughed my ass OFF at that last answer. Seriously. LAUGHED MY ASS OFF.

And for 10,000,000 dollars, ONE HUNDRED PERCENT SAFE SEX, I'll just stare at the ceiling and think of England, thanks. ;)

OMG I LOVE YOUR ICON.

Also, for real. Ninth doctor, yes; Tennant, no.

Hehehe, ONTD! I visit it from time to time, but it's too spammy for me.

I'm absolutely addicted to it! It's terrible and awesome.

What possessed Nicole Kidman to name her child SUNDAY?!

... Demons?

Hey, can I ask you a giant favor? Can you scan the delicious oaty-golden syrup bar thingie that your mom made recipe for me? I completely lost the photocopy and I'm desperate for it.

Sorry it took me a while -- had to find it in the right cookbook and then type it up. :-)

I'm sure my mum explained to you about golden syrup (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Golden_syrup) -- I suspect you can substitute corn syrup if you can't get hold of any. Or we can send you some!

Fast Flapjacks, by Mary Berry

12 oz margarine/butter
12 oz demerara sugar
3 tablespoons golden syrup
18 oz rolled oats

Heat the oven to 325˚ F. Lightly grease a 12*9 inch roasting tin.

Melt the margarine/butter in a large pan with the sugar and syrup and then stir in the oats. Mix well and then turn into the prepared tin and press flat with a palette knife or the back of a spoon.

Bake until pale golden brown (the book and my mother disagree on how long -- Mum says 25 minutes max, the book says 35). Remove from the oven and leave to cool for about 10 minutes. Cut into about 24 squares and finish cooling in the tin.

Enjoy them!

Thank you so so so so so so so much! I've been kicking myself for misplacing the recipe and my mom's all "I want to make them!" and I'm like "I want to eat them!" so mil gracias.

They're super easy and yummy... and you've just inadvertently decided what I'm going to have for dessert tonight. :D
