starchild4298 gave me a *C*...(about 24 hours ago actually, sorry this took so long, heh)
Clarkson - I don't know. I think it's like drugs. You start off with a vague crush on Hammond, then you realise that no, actually, you'd really rather have May, and before you know it you're on the hard stuff. You wake up and realise you're actually lusting after Jeremy Clarkson. By which point you're beyond all reasonable hope of redemption and the only sensible course of action is to go away and write lurid slash fiction.
Crowley - and talking of beyond redemption (see and marvel at her seamless segue), I give you Anthony J Crowley - "a demon who did not so much Fall, as saunter vaguely downwards." Specifically, as taken in slashy conjunction with his 'opposite number', the angel Aziraphale. I've just finished reading Good Omens for the third time, and if you haven't read it yet, I thoroughly recomend it.
Cats - mine has always been a family of cats (as in owning, we're not your actual cat-people). A house isn't a home unless there's at least one feline occupant eyeing you disparagingly and trying to break into the cat food cupboard. Even during the cat-less years after I first left home, there would always be one around that would find me - like the three legged one called Stumpy, or the six-toed ginger that would jump in the kitchen window and open thefridge...
Chocolates - favourites? Rose and Violet Creams. Usually dismissed ad the old lady's choice, but I've loves 'em I does. Ever since I was a nipper.
Cornwall - place of my birth and the place I came back to. There aren't any well-paid jobs, you can't afford to buy a house and the public transport is shit. But it's also one of the most beautiful places on Earth, a land steeped in centuries of myth and legend that calls to you like a lone seagull on the breeze. Also, the cream teas are a bonus. And we make exceedingly good beer.
Coffee - Black, no sugar. Filter, not instant. And at least two mugs before I'm approaching conscious at work in the mornings. My coffee has been described (possibly by me) as being the sort of coffee that makes you think there's someone behind you...(but I drink tea in the afternoons, otherwise I get a headache. And possibly paranoid.)
Country Music - I like it. So there. *hides*
Cult TV - I've never particularly liked this label, but it lets me get in the wide range of shocking sci fi that I like. Yes, I *was* the one person in the country that liked Crime Traveller. And Bugs. And I can watch things like The Avengers, and Blake's 7, and Sapphire & Steel for hours.
Clive Cussler - there's something rather compelling aboiut his books - I've got a whole shelf of them. They're not spectacularly well written, and there's largely only one plot - but they are highly entertaining and very difficult to put down. And one day I *will* get round to writing Dirk/Al...
Clothes - the vast majority of my clothes are either black, grey or khaki. My washing line looks like laundry day at the army surplus. Anything that isn't, is generally purple.
