Oooh, more useless questions, that I can't resist answering. The list has been drastically cut down, though - I'd like to get to bed before sunrise!

5. Do you get nervous before "meeting the parents????
I don't get the sense this one was invented by middle-aged poly people.

Or any middle-aged person, really.

7. What's your favorite Christmas song?
Hmm. Maybe "Oh, Holy Night", but I'm not sure.

That's definitely my favorite of the traditional carols.

21.Current hair?

Still have some, yes. :)

28. Where do you think you'll be in 10 yrs?

What is this, a job interview?

34. What did you fear was going to get you at night as a child?
Vampires.

The Martian creatures from Invaders From Mars (1956 version)
The pod people from Invasion of the Body Snatchers (also 50s version)
Disease of the week on Dr. Kildare.
Various and sundry creepy stuff from the Twilight Zone.

38. Worst injury you've ever had?
I was stabbed (nearly to death, but I didn't die, as you can see).

Wow, I didn't know this. I'm glad you pulled through!!

47. What song do you want played at your wedding?

Another one not aimed at middle-aged respondents.

9) Would you ever have plastic surgery?
It depends on why. I'm amused when I see people say, "NOOOO" but if I got my ear or nose torn off by a rabid moose, I'd probably want it to be reconstructed.

LOL - good point. Though I don't think that was the intention of the question, I think you are right.

11) Have you ever done anything illegal?
Yes.

Terseness is probably best here...

12) Can you roll your tongue?
I can curl it into a cylinder.

Good come-on line! :)

19) If you could only eat one food for the rest of your life, what would it be?
Depends on whether or not nutrition would be taken care of somehow.

LOL. Survey savvy!

20) Beach, city, or country?
City.

Me too, but I love the beach as well.

23) Would you ever go out dressed like the opposite sex?

This is impossible. I believe that if I wear something, then it is an article of women's clothing.

31) Ever met any famous bands/singers?
Depends on how you define "famous" and "met".

Terseness is probably not necessary here. Spill! (Please?) :)

32) Do you twirl your spaghetti or cut it?
Twirl

I not only cut, I break it up before it goes into the water.

46) Can you cook?
Yes.

Understatement of the year!

True, but I was a bit nervous when I took [livejournal.com profile] adrian_turtle to meet my mother. Not that Mom could forbid the relationship, or would try, but I wanted them to like each other, and it had been a long time since I'd introduced a partner to my mother. (They do like each other.)
