Gacked this one from hawkdancer

1. The phone rings. Who do you want it to be?
For the near future, I want it to be the people who will install my new floors so I can get that the heck out of the way.

Alternatively, someone offering me a fabulous job would be good. I've sent out about half a dozen resumes in the last three weeks and so far, no bites.

2. When shopping at the grocery store, do you return your cart?
If I'm close to a return cage or the storefront, I'll do it. But sometimes, I'm just damned exhausted or hot/cold and I can't be arsed, so it'll get parked on a curb or in some other way that it won't roll off.

3. If you had to kiss the last person you kissed again, would you?
Given that it was M, and about four hours ago? Yep, and will probably do so again in a very short time.

4. Do you take compliments well?
Depends on who's doing the compliment and what they're saying. I'm gracious and humble when anyone I respect compliments me on something I've worked hard on, but empty flattery from someone who really has no basis for comparison kind of... eh...

5. Do you play Sudoku?
Never played in my life.


6. If abandoned alone in the wilderness, would you survive?
I'd probably die within a few hours.

7. Do you like tongue rings?
Nope.

8. Did you ever go to camp as a kid?
Four (?) years at Campfire camp. It was awful. The kids hated me, and I still wet the bed for the first couple of years, so that was miserable, too.

9. Do you watch a TV show religiously?
BSG is about the only appointment TV for me, now. I watch other stuff, but usually only off of the DVR.

10. Would you rather get married to someone you don't know or stay single?
Single.

11. What's the biggest secret you have?
I honestly don't take care of my illness as well as I should. I take my meds, but I'm too much of a carb addict to cut back as far on those as I'm supposed to. Means I need to be more active to make up for it, though, and I'm doing more of now that I have the time.

12. Could you date someone with different religious beliefs?
Probably not, though it would depend on how different. I can have friends and short-term things with people of different beliefs, but on a long-term basis, I just couldn't mesh well enough with someone who sincerely believes in a conscious deity. Our entire basis for what constitutes a fact would be different, and that would lead to constant bickering.

13. Do you like to pursue or be pursued?
I like pursuing, but only if I have a chance. Unrequited crushes? Bleh.

14. Use three words to describe yourself at the moment.
Achy, tired, bleary

15. Do any songs make you cry?
Several. I'm a big sap for music.

16. Are you continuing your education?
Not immediately. Though I have considered taking a technical writing class so I can at least get a good paycheck if I don't get a journalism gig soon.

18. If your house was on fire, what would be the first thing you grab?
The cats.

19. Who was the last person you shared a bed with?
M's the only one in several years.

21. Favorite children's movie?
The Rescuers.

22. What color are your eyes?
Dark blue with a gold starburst that makes them sometimes appear green.

23. How tall are you?
5'2". Shortarse. I hate it.

25. If you could do it over again, start from scratch, would you?
If my surrounding culture were exactly the same, no.

26. Any secret admirers?
I got flirted with by an underage geek/goth kid at Sears the other day. Otherwise, I seriously doubt it.

27. Have you ever taken pictures in a photo booth?
A few, yes.

28. When was the last time you were at Olive Garden?
Ehm... 6 months ago?

29. Favorite ex?
As I've had only three other official relationships besides M, I don't have a large pool from which to select. And all were dreadful in their own ways. I do kind of miss the person my ex-husband was when he was a teen, though. Much more interesting and fun than the anal-retentive, passive-aggressive loser he turned into.

31. Do you like mayo?
I prefer Miracle Whip. Mayo tastes like nothing more than a giant glob of fat. Flavored mayos (pesto!) sure, but not the plain stuff.

32. Do you like mustard?
In moderate amounts, properly applied, absolutely.

33. Do you prefer to sleep or eat?
Sleep

34. Do you look like your mom or dad?
Dad. Definitely.

35. How long does it take you to shower?
5-10 minutes, depending on how groggy I am.

36. Can you do the splits?
Haven't tried in eons, but I was good at it up through my mid-20s, at least.

37. What movie do you want to see right now?
POTC3, since I haven't seen it, yet.

39. What did you do for New Years?
I honestly don't remember.

40. Do you think The Grudge was crappy?
I never see those things. Horror films don't impress me. They all have terrible plots and I don't enjoy being startled or grossed out.

41. Wanna have sex right now?
Nah. Still recovering from a recent session. :)

42. Do you like ice cream?
Like is an inappropriately weak word.

43. Did you have a crush on any teachers?
Oh yeah.

44. Was your mom a cheerleader?
Nope. She was one of the good little choirgirls.

45. What's the last letter of your middle name?
A.

47. How many hours of sleep do you get a night?
I will wake up naturally at 7 1/2.

48. Do you like Care Bears?
Ew.

49. What do you buy at the movies?
Usually nothing, unless they have soft pretzels or something better than the overly sweet or salty crapola.

50. Do you know how to play poker?
Yep, though I'm rather out of practice these days.

51. Do you wear your seatbelt?
Yes, though I do tend to fasten it as I'm pulling out of the driveway.

52. What do you wear to sleep in?
A t-shirt or nightshirt.

53. Anything big ever happen in your town?
I don't actually live in a town at the moment--I'm in an inincorporated part of SnoCo. However, the town on my mailing address now can claim fame via Blake whatshisnuts from AI.

54. Is your hair straight or curly?
A slight wave.

56. Do you like liver and onions?
Not in the slightest.

55. Are/were you ever in love?
Every moment of every day, often with several different people.

58. Do you like funny or serious people better?
I like people who can find the funny in serious stuff while still taking it seriously. I don't like mocking others' pain, but I do love some good political humor.

59. Ever been to L.A.?
A few times. Smoggy, hot, full of traffic and plastic people. Bleh.

60. Do you like the rain?
I love our drizzle here. All-out rain I'm not fond of, unless it's a mid-summer gullywasher.

61. Ocean or pool?
People pee in one, people AND wildlife pee in the other. I'd rather have my own private pool that's never been inundated with some unshowered slob's DNA.

62. What's your favorite drink?
Focus VitaminWater.

63. Do you hate chocolate?
People who hate chocolate should be flogged.

64. Are you a gullible person?
Nope. I'm skeptical about EVERYTHING. So you can bet that if I'm sure about something, it's been verified and cross-checked about a thousand times.

66. Do you need a bf/gf to be happy?
Considering that I've been in a relationship almost continuously (with about a six-week break) since December of 1987? Apparently so.

67. Do you have socks on right now?
Nope. I rarely wear them in the house. Too many slippery floors.

68. Are you easy to get along with?
I'm too uptight, unfortunately. If people can get past my trust barriers and/or find ways to push my buttons, I'm very easygoing.

69. What is your favorite time of day?
Late morning.

70. Do you like pink?
Ugh.
