Ten things meme

Once you have been tagged, you have to write a blog with 10 random things, facts, goals, or habits about yourself. At the end, choose 10 people to be tagged, listing their names and why you chose them. Don't forget to leave them a comment (you're it!) and to read your blog for instructions. You can't tag a person who has tagged you. Since you can't re-tag me, let me know when you've posted your blog so I can read the answers!

1. I love spicy food, the spicier the better. I never met a curry I didn't like.
   
   
2. Three be the things I will never attain: envy, content and sufficient champagne.
   
   
3. When I was little, I used to beg my mother for peanut butter and cabbage sandwiches.
   
   
4. I've had severe clinical depression since my early teens, if not longer. I take a raft of medications for it, but it's a rare day that I feel I've had my head above water for more than a few fleeting moments. Most of those moments are provided by fanfiction.
   
   
5. I live in Austin, TX and I don't care how cool the place is supposed to be, I don't especially like it here. Unfortunately, I can't afford to move at the moment. If I could, I'm not sure which coast I'd move to; I have ties in the SF Bay Area and DC, and reasons to love and hate them both.
   
   
6. My porn name is Cassiopeia Buckingham.
   
   
7. I've been unintentionally single for ten years, although lately I'm finding I'm so used to it I'm not sure I want to change the status quo.
   
   
8. My remaining cat, Iceberg Slim, is named after a pimp. He's curled up with his head on my left arm right now.
   
   
9. I just got a tech writing job at IBM after a grueling eight-month job hunt during which I had to resort to working at a garden center to make ends meet.
   
   
10. When my house was on fire, I rescued my cats first and my guitars second, and only then thought to call 911.
    

I'm not tagging anybody because most of my friendslist has already done this meme. Feel free to pretend I tagged you anyway if you want.
