Pros:
- I have lots of black clothes.
- I have lots of white clothes to completely camouflage myself in the event of a mild to moderate snow storm. (Or if I'm required to work in Siberia--which you know I would be).
- I have amateur lock-picking skills that are quickly progressing into not-amateur.
- I know the lingo.
- I am fairly decent at Golden Eye.
- Once, while paintballing, I shot a drunk guy in the neck whilst perched behind a barrel with my eyes closed. (true story)
- I am
oftenalways perceived as "not a threat". - I am good at lying (like when I said I was fairly decent at Golden Eye. I'm actually amazing.)
- I have had multiple successful attempts at hiding behind corners and then jumping out at unsuspecting siblings.
- I like expensive gadgets.
- I don't like having to pay for expensive gadgets myself.
- I enjoy wearing fancy dresses. (For when I have to infiltrate enemy territory and smooze at parties).
- I'm sweet at kick-boxing.
- I have access to weapons. (It doesn't matter if they are $10 swords off Ebay, hunting rifles, or a bow and arrow. I have access.)
- I eat a lot of yogurt.
Cons:
- I recently had to part with my black, tinted-window spy car.
- If I had to go into ninja-mode, my pale skin would shine too much in the moonlight.
- I don't like martinis.
- I am not good at not talking. (Especially at the movies, but I just have so many comments about the previews!!)
- I only speak English. And Sign Language. And about 15 words in Spanish. And the only accent I can do is an Irish one--but only when saying certain phrases.
- I would never actually respond to my cover IDs.
- I don't currently have a creepy or alluring way of saying "hello."
- I do not in fact own a license to kill.
- I don't want to go to Siberia.
Oh man, Meg I laughed so hard at this post!
