Me, A to Z

[(From Sam, and crossposted from my Red Room blog.)]

[A is for age: 38 (39 in a couple of weeks)
B is for beer of choice: Newcastle or Bass Ale
C is for career right now: Editor, Homepage & Special Projects, redroom.com. The best job I've ever had.
D is for your dog's name? I don't have one, but I take care of other people's dogs. Recent charges have been named Hal, Bruno and Oscar. Sounds like a bunch of old men playing canasta.
E is for essential item you use everyday: Scathing wit
F is for favorite TV: Battlestar Galactica
G is for favorite game: Taboo
H is for home town: Sonoma, California
I is for instruments you play: I played trombone from fifth grade through college. I still have it, but currently use the case as an occasional table.
J is for favorite juice: Apple. (Yeah, yeah - I thought of writing "Jungle." But Martinelli's never gives me a headache.)]
K is for whose butt you'd like to kick: Eh, no one's. Can't we go out for a milkshake and talk it over instead?
L is for last place you ate: One of those crepe and salad places on Haight Street. Not Squat & Gobble, the other one.
M is for marriage: I think it's a great institution, but who wants to be in an institution?
N is for your full name: Huntington William Sharp.
O is for overnight hospital stays: Appendicitis when I was twelve.
P is for people you were with today: Well, it's still early in the morning, so no one except commenters on other people's Red Room blogs!
Q is for quote: The quality of mercy is not strained/It droppeth as the gentle rain from heaven/Upon the place beneath./It is twice blest:/It blesseth him that gives and him that takes. (Portia, in Shakespeare's The Merchant of Venice.)
R is for biggest regret: Taking my own sweet time getting to where I am now.
S is for status: Fighting the consumption. Or, you know, bronchitis. *COUGH COUGH*
T is for time you woke up today: 5:30 A.M.
U is for underwear you have on now: Mind your own business. Well, OK; I'll tell you it's from H&M.
V is for vegetable you love: Swiss chard
W is for worst habit: Procrastination
X is for x-rays you've had: Dental, appendix.
Y is for yummy food you ate today: Nothing yet. A bowl of Grape Nuts with 2% milk is in my near future.
Z is for the zodiac sign: Gemini.]

[Now you!]
