two things meme

Today’s post is my response to the two things meme that’s doing the rounds. I’ve added a question: Favourite places to get favourite beverages. I also interpreted one of the questions in two ways.

Two names you go by

1. Kate
2. Katie (original, huh)

Two things you are wearing right now

1. Favourite baggy grey tracky dacks (old and ugly and apparently not fit to be seen in public, according to my sister)
2. Too-small uggboot slipper things, complete with holes where my big toe wants to poke out

Two things you would want (or have) in a relationship

1. Ease
2. Space (clearly a single girl!)

Two things you like to do

1. Hang out with my family
2. Go out for breakfast, either on my own with book in hand, or with friends

Two things you want very badly at the moment

(Oooh, two interpretations here: stuff, and intangibles.)

1. A new really, really big desk
2. A digital SLR

And

1. More time to potter
2. Order

1. Marked assignments
2. Watched Relocation Relocation (I love Kirsty and Phil!)

Two favourite holidays

Two favourite beverages

1. Coke
2. Skinny latte

Two favourite places to get favourite beverages

1. Kingston Grind, Green Square, Canberra
2. Brother Espresso, Margaret Street, Brisbane

Two things about me you may not have known

1. I don’t eat really eat red meat, unless it’s hidden in bolognaise with loads of garlic – not for ideological reasons, but because it tastes too red
2. I often don’t make my bed in the morning – I wish I did, but I’m usually running to get out the door

Two jobs I have had in my life

1. Counter manager for a fragrance company
2. The person inside the Chomp dinosaur suit

Two movies I would watch over and over

(This is a tricky one… I don’t really watch movies over and over anymore. These are the ones I’ve watched over and over in the past.)

1. Girls just wanna have fun
2. Never ending story

Two places I have lived

1. Canberra (aka Can’t-bear-it – at least that’s what I thought for the first year)
2. Brisbane
   

Two of my favourite foods

1. Fried potato – hot chips, wedges, potato skins, hash browns
2. Pizza – preferably with potato on it

Two places I’d rather be right now

1. In Paris, buying a flat with the assistance of Kirsty and Phil (Relocation Relocation seriously inspiring me atm!)
2. On the lounge, staring at the tv
