1. What article of clothing comforts you ? Same as you! Anything soft and fuzzy does it, along with old T-shirts and sports pants.
2. What book or type of book comforts you? (you can list as many as you want or just a type if you've blanked on it) Almost anything I read and loved as a kid is a comfort book -- LM Montgomery, Susan Cooper, Robin McKinley, stuff like that. YA books make me feel all nostalgic and happy.
3. What tv show or type of tv show? (can list as many as you want) Buffy! Buffy is my comfort show, especially early Buffy. Later Buffy is my emotional catharsis of angstiness. Same with early and late Angel.
4. What types of movies or movies? (can list as many as you want) Almost anything animated -- Chicken Run is the movie that cheers me up the fastest, along with Nightmare Before Christmas. Also, Moulin Rouge and Singin' in the Rain and Strictly Ballroom. I need to get Lilo and Stitch because I think that's going to be a comfort movie too.
5. What type of food and drink? Chinese food, especially homestyle stuff like dumplings or rice porridge or a big bowl of noodles. That, and ice cream.
6. Music: Er. Me First and the Gimme Gimmes ^_^. And currently the Lilo and Stitch soundtrack because the Hawaiian stuff just sounds so happy.
Re books: Here's what I thought of Reading Lolita in Tehran. The only other one I've read is Neverwhere, which I love, but not as much as his other books.
