Let's see, now. Study for midterms, or answer a bunch of questions about myself (that I stole from [personal profile] hobbitbabe along with some of her answers)? Hmmmmmmm...



1: Do you sleep with your closet doors open or closed?

I like it better when they're closed but I don't usually bother.

2: Do you take the shampoos and conditioner bottles from hotel?

Nope, nor do I use them. I'm allergic, so I take my own cleansers. I'm actually becoming allergic to those, though, too, so I'm switching to milder and milder things until eventually I'm going to be cleaning myself with purified water. *sigh*

3: Do you sleep with your sheets tucked in or out?

If we use a blanket, we don't bother with a sheet, and we have it tucked out.

4: Have you ever stolen a street sign before?

Nope.

5: Do you like to use post-it notes?

Like it? Huh. I use them. I never thought of it as something to like or not like.

6: Do you cut out coupons but then never use them?

Yep, but I use enough of them that it's worth the effort.

7: Would you rather be attacked by a big bear or a swarm of a bees?

Thank heavens those aren't my only two choices! (Bees, I guess, since I'm not allergic and I'd have a better chance of getting out alive.)

8: Do you have freckles?

Nope.

9: Do you always smile for pictures?

Whenever I can.

10: What is your biggest pet peeve?

I have so many. Not sure which is biggest, but people who leave the bathroom less than clean when they're done with it drive me insane.

11: Do you ever count your steps when you walk?

Sometimes.

12: Have you ever peed in the woods?

Yes, many times.

13: What about pooped in the woods?

Oh yes.

14: Do you ever dance even if there's no music playing?

Sometimes, but more inadvertently.

15: Do you chew your pens and pencils?

No.

16: How many people have you slept with this week?

Slept with? Two. Had sex with? Two.

17: What size is your bed?

My house: cal king. Guy's house: king, I think.

18: What is your Song of the week?

I've had a song stuck in my head for days, but as soon as I tried to type what it is, I forgot it.

19: Is it okay for guys to wear pink?

Of course.

20: Do you still watch cartoons?

Not much, but I never did watch them much.

21: What's your least favorite movie?

I hate almost anything with Adam Sandler or Rob Schneider in it. I've also walked out of a few movies, such as Technolust, because they were just that bad.

22: Where would you bury hidden treasure if you had some?

Well, it sure wouldn't be hidden if I told you!

23: What do you drink with dinner?

Usually water. In a non-Thai restaurant, iced tea, no lemon. In a Thai restaurant, Thai iced tea.

24: What do you dip a chicken nugget in?

I haven't had a chicken nugget since I was a child.

25: What is your favorite food?

Oh, gosh. Sushi. Watermelon. Potatoes and carrots mashed together with butter and gravy on top. These tacos I'm eating right this second. Farina with butter and honey. So many glorious foods to choose from!

26: What movies could you watch over and over and still love?

Bull Durham. This is Spinal Tap. Grease. Breakfast at Tiffany's.

27: Last person you kissed/kissed you?

[personal profile] james_huber

28: Were you ever a boy/girl scout?

I was a Girl Scout for a while.

29: Would you ever strip or pose nude in a magazine?

Sure.

30: When was the last time you wrote a letter to someone on paper?

Oh, dear, I don't know. It's not something I do very often.

31: Can you change the oil on a car?

Yep.

32: Ever gotten a speeding ticket?

Nope.

33: Ever run out of gas?

Not that I can remember.

34: Favorite kind of sandwich?

Tomato, avocado, sprouts, and mayo on soft whole-wheat bread.

35: Best thing to eat for breakfast?

Farina made with milk and honey and butter, and optionally dates. Plus some fresh sweet fruit.

I don't remember at all.

41: Do you have any magazine subscriptions?

Nope.

42: Which are better legos or lincoln logs?

Ooh, don't make me choose!

Not especially. I don't think I lose anything by letting other people win when I can, as contradictory as that sounds.

44: Who is better...Leno or Letterman?

Letterman, by a mile, in my preference, but I haven't watched either of them in a long time.

45: Ever watch soap operas?

When I was in high school (during one of the summers) I watched All My Children, One Life to Live, and General Hospital every day. That's when I figured out how hard it is for me to retain the narrative thread of things I watch/read.

46: Are you afraid of heights?

Mildly.

47: Do you sing in the car?

Yes, especially if I'm tired.

48: Do you sing in the shower?

Yep.

Not unless "In the Air Tonight" or something is on, and I just HAVE to.

50: Ever used a gun?

Lots.

51: Last time you got a portrait taken by a photographer?

Not counting the ass shot [livejournal.com profile] black_pearl_10 took of me a couple months ago, it's got to have been years and years.

52: Do you think musicals are cheesy?

Most of them. I like cheesy.

53: Is Christmas stressful?

Nope, not for me.

54: Ever eat a pierogi?

Yep. I've made them from scratch, too. I love 'em.

Raspberry or peach.

56: Occupations you wanted to be when you were a kid?

A singer.

Not usually.

Yes, though I'll stop doing it the day the kid moves out.

62: What do you wear to bed?

Nothing.

63: First concert?

Bob Seger, I think.

64: Wal-Mart, Target or Kmart?

I don't shop at Wal-Mart. I have shopped at Target a handful of times. I haven't seen a K-Mart in maybe 20 years.

65: Nike or Adidas?

Neither.

66: Cheetos Or Fritos?

Either. I'm easy.

Sunflower seeds. I'm not a huge fan of peanuts.

Nope!

69: Ever take dance lessons?

When I was a kid, my family square-danced together.

70: Is there a profession you picture your future spouse doing?

I don't picture a future spouse.

71: Can you curl your tongue?

Yep.

72: Ever won a spelling bee?

No. I came in second once. I misspelled "fricassee".

73: Have you ever cried because you were so happy?

Yes, often.

74: Own any record albums?

Yes, but I'm freecycling them as we speak.

75: Own a record player?

Yes.

76: Regularly burn incense?

No. I don't tolerate scented things very well.

77: Ever been in love?

Oh, my heavens, yes.

78: Who would you like to see in concert?

Joan Baez; Indigo Girls; John Gorka; just about any of the folk-rock singer-songwriters I love.

79: What was the last concert you saw?

Hmm. I don't rightly know.

80: Hot tea or cold tea?

Either.

81: Tea or coffee?

Either, though if there's no milk or sugar, I'll pass on the coffee.

82: Sugar or snickerdoodles?

I'm not big on snickerdoodles, sugar cookies, or sugar.

83: Can you swim well?

Yes.

84: Can you hold your breath without holding your nose?

Sure.

85: Are you patient?

Yes, but I'm also impulsive, so sometimes I could wait, but I don't.

86: DJ or band, at a wedding?

Don't care.

87: Ever won a contest?

I actually just won $2000!

88: Ever have plastic surgery?

No.

Green, and I'm intrigued by [personal profile] hobbitbabe's answer: The green olives with maple syrup, walnuts, and feta at Olive Me.

90: Can you knit or crochet?

I can do both, but not well.

91: Best room for a fireplace?

Don't care.

92: Do you want to get married?

Not until everyone who wants to is allowed to, but I would marry someone I cared about who needed the benefits that marrying me would bring.

93: If married, how long have you been married?

N/A. I've been in life partnerships with [personal profile] stonebender and [personal profile] james_huber for almost 9 years.

94: Who was your HS crush?

I don't remember. Grade school was Alex Will, though.

95: Do you cry and throw a fit until you get your own way?

No. I do sometimes wheedle, though.

96: Do you have kids?

Sort of.

97: Do you want kids?

Sort of.

98: Whats your favorite color?

I just don't care that much about colors.

99: Do you miss anyone right now?

Nope. But I don't tend to miss people very often or very much.
