SIX NAMES YOU GO BY:
1. Paul
2. Paul A.
3. Paul [my full actual surname]
4. Paul [my full actual surname, creatively misspelled or mispronounced]
5. pedanther
6. anobium
THREE THINGS YOU ARE WEARING RIGHT NOW:
1. Spectacles
2. My favourite blue stripy shirt
3. Compression socks
THREE THINGS YOU WANT VERY BADLY AT THE MOMENT:
Can't think of a thing. Specifying both "very badly" and "at the moment" does rule a lot out, it should be noted.
THREE PEOPLE WHOM YOU HOPE WILL DO THE MEME:
I always ignore questions like this one in memes. Also, I'm fairly sure it should be "who you hope".
THREE THINGS YOU DID LAST NIGHT:
1. Found the last-but-one hidden item in the bonus stage of Batman: Arkham Asylum
2. Watched two episodes of The Pretender season 2
3. Skimmed through an episode of The Pretender season 1 to check whether they'd changed a character's backstory or just described it in a confusingly different way
THREE PEOPLE YOU LAST TALKED TO ON THE PHONE:
1. My boss
2. The receptionist
3. Somebody calling about an aspect of the company I'm not usually involved in, but I happened to be the only person not at lunch
THREE THINGS YOU ARE GOING TO DO TOMORROW:
1. Go to work
2. Grocery shopping
3. Read more of The Princes of the Air
THREE OF YOUR FAVORITE DRINKS:
1. Water
2. Orange juice
3. Hot chocolate
THREE THINGS THAT MADE YOU SMILE TODAY:
1. A particular thing I achieved at work
2. The Princes of the Air
3. "Prologos: Invocation and Instructions to the Audience" from Stephen Sondheim's The Frogs ("Gods of the theater... You who look down on actors..." "And who doesn't?" "...smile on us!")
