Rule: Tag 10 followers you want to get to know better
I was tagged by @seidrade. Thanks!
Name: Phil (for fandom purposes)
Gender: Cis woman, more or less. I think maybe I would have identified as non-binary if I’d been born later, but as it is I take the path of least resistance.
Star Sign: Libra, but the “signs as” things never work for me. Gemini ascendant, which is better.
Height: 5’1”
Sexuality: het-leaning bi (Kinsey 2)
What images do you have set as your desktop/cellphone wallpaper? Computer desktop is random waterscapes that came with the computer; phone wallpaper is part of the view from the winery where I worked in spring-summer 2014
Have you ever had a crush on a teacher? Hahaha yeah. I had a really unhealthy crush on my undergraduate advisor (who was 44 when I was 20) and some less inappropriate crushes on grad student TAs and postdoctoral lecturers.
Where do you see yourself in 10 years? A philosophy professor with tenure, God willing. Preferably in a place that doesn’t suck to live.
If you could be anywhere else right now, where would you be? Scotland would be fun. Or wine tasting in France or Germany.
What was your coolest Halloween costume? My second year of grad school I dressed as Immanuel Kant: I borrowed a long tailored coat from a classmate and wore it with a button-up shirt, black pants tucked up to be knee-breeches, white tights, and very 18th-century-style low-heeled black shoes. I didn’t have a wig, but I tied my hair in a low ponytail and people got the idea… especially when I tilted my head forward and looked serious like in the portrait on the cover of the Cambridge University Press editions.
What’s your favorite 90s show? “Buffy the Vampire Slayer”… but I didn’t watch it until a couple years ago. I wasn’t very culturally aware in the 90s.
Who was your last kiss? Uh… I guess the guy I slept with at Thanksgiving. The stepson of the brother of my parents’ college friend, which is why we were staying in the same place. We’re not actually related.
Have you ever been stood up? Not that I can recall.
Have you ever been to Las Vegas? Yes, for a friend’s birthday. It was terrible. I never want to go back.
Favorite pair of shoes: My slippers, probably.
Favorite fruit: Marionberry. Look them up, they’re amazing.
Favorite book: The Gay Science by Friedrich Nietzsche, of course. Fiction? Neil Gaiman’s Sandman series, if that counts.
Stupidest thing you’ve ever done: Um… had sex on the floor of the seminar room in my department? Incidentally, that was at the Halloween party where I wore the Immanuel Kant costume.
