"meme-in-a-box" I got it from Terriblelynne's LJ:

"So, say you were meeting a new person--blind date, new friend, who
knows. And you wanted them to have some idea of what kind of person
you are, and who you are. But you can't actually tell them in so many
words. Instead, you have to give them a box, with a dozen things in
it for them to look at/read/listen to/taste/whatever. "What would you
put in the box? And a copy of your journal or a link to your LJ would
be the same thing as just telling them directly, yourself, so that's
not allowed."

1) a glass cobalt-blue heart bead
(blue heart is my symbol, glass and beads are my creative outlet,
cobalt blue is my favorite color)

2) a yard of 4" wide black satin ribbon
(to show my interest in classy, theatrical, mostly non-painful BDSM)

3) a lottery ticket
(to show that I rely more on luck than skill or planning for my life
& future)

4) a box with a lot of smaller boxes inside
(this is me)

5) a jar of Peppadew peppers
(just cuz I like them a lot)

[a better choice might have been a pack of Trident Cinnamon]

6) a tube of Chanel Vamp Noir lipstick
(the ultimate evile accessory)

7) a shot glass
(I drink)

8) a photo of me, sineater & my Jr. Hi & HS best friend, Liz at the
San Antonio faire when we were 15.
(a very happy moment, maybe one of my happiest, to show my state of
being is best when all dressed up, hugging family & friends close)

9) a mirror
(I usually end up mirroring interests/accents/attitudes of people I
like)

10) My diploma
(HS or college? couldn't decide. Academics are the single unqualified
success of my life)

11) my glasses case (or a copy of my prescription)
(to show how I see the world)

12) a set of BIG headphones
(for my DJ days & for my current reality--I have to wear them or go
crazy listening to coworker blather)
