001. Real name – Carlyn Rebecca Campbell
002. Nickname(s) – Car, Carl, Starfish, Yellow, Babe, Pies Rainbow, Table, probably a couple more

020. Tattoos – So far, five: infinity sign on my leg with "ABBA" ("Daddy" in Aramaic), since edited to include a calculus function eliminating the value of the infinity sign by means of a limit that does not exist; Eleven the Cat and Dot the Superspy on the other side of the same leg; seven little birds flying on my right shoulder; “good grief” in Morse code swirling around my left shoulder; and an asterisk on the inside of my right pinky.

030. Brothers – None, though I had a set of imaginary brothers when I was little

051. Dogs or cats – Cats, though I love dogs

053. Listening to – The sound of my own typing
054. Plans for today – Tonight: sleep. Tomorrow: Classes and an orthodontist appointment. Because 22-year-olds who haven’t had braces in 11 years sometimes need to go to the ortho.

071. Do you want to initiate the relationship or him/her? – Circumstances merit various courses of action.

089. Laughed till you cried – As often as I can!
090. Believe in miracles? – Anyone who wants to see miracles will see them.

092. Heaven – Probably not. We’ll see.
093. Santa Claus – Good man.
094. Say 'I love you' on the first date – That may be jumping the gun just a tad.
095. Kiss on the first date – Guilty.
096. Hold hands on the first date – Also guilty.
097. Is there one person you want to be with right now? – There is indeed. I miss her crazily.

So that’s my survey! Casey, I hope we hear from you tomorrow!
