Honestly, most of my thoughts are in text, so I'm gonna have to say black and white.
How do you deal with procrastinatory urges?
Sometimes, I just give in to them. Sometimes I set a ten-minute timer and let myself procrastinate until the bell goes off. Sometimes I pick something else I'm supposed to be doing and use THAT as the task-avoidance task.
What do you like best about sex with men? Women?
Sex with each individual man/woman I've been with is enough different for each person that this question isn't meaningful for me. That is, sex between any two men I've slept with is likely to be more different than sex with any particular man vs. any particular woman. My brain is a little fuzzy, so I'm not sure I'm being clear.
How tall is your mother?
Shorter than I am, and shrinking with age.
What are your thoughts on how forgiveness happens? (I mean, you may not have any.)
For me, it's threefold:
1) Recognize that holding anger/hatred/grudges hurts me more than it hurts them.
2) Do my best to find empathy for that person. For example, when I was forgiving my parents for how they'd treated me when I was a child, I thought about what they'd been doing when they were my age, and how hard that must have been. The classic example for me, when I was 27, was to think, "When my dad was my age, he had three kids, was in the Navy, and was married to my mom. That's a lot to deal with." Likewise similar thoughts about my mom.
3) Time.
Are guinea pigs any fun?
I'm not a pet person, in general, but I have to say YES, he's much more fun than I thought he'd be.
Whyyyy?
My mother would answer this question thusly: "Y's a crooked letter; if it were I, it would be straight."
