1. What bill do you hate paying the most? Stupid, stupid phone bills. There's the land line. There's long distance. There's the cell phone. Blah. I've tried repeatedly to get them to just send one bill...but no!
2. Where was the last place you had a romantic dinner? It was evening, it came from a can, meowing was involved. Wait. That was Dylan's last romantic dinner: last night was chopped meat from a can night.
3. What do you really want to be doing right now? Not to sound like a total junkie, but practicing cello across the street at the music building!!
4. How many colleges did you attend? 1.2.3.4.5..I'm in my fifth one right now working on my second master's degree. Again with sounding like a junkie...
5. Why did you choose the shirt that you have on right now? Because I dress in Business-Sarcastic-Casual. All business casual on top with snarky shirts underneath.
6. First thought when the alarm went off this morning? NOOOOOOOOO!!! SNOOZE BUTTON!!!
7. Last thought before going to sleep last night? I was being read the dairy order for the next few weeks by Chris and I think my last words were "sharp cheddar..."
8. Do you miss being a child? Hmm. Yes and no. I still tip over farily easily (like a child) but I have a larger vocabulary (like a not-child).
9. What errand/chore do you despise? Laundry. That's a guy's job.
10. Get up early or sleep in? SLEEP IN!!!!
11. Have you found real love yet? Yes: it was evening, it came from a can, meowing was involved. Dammit. I seem to be channeling the cat today!
12. Favorite lunch meat? Hmm. I'm swinging back over to the vegetarian camp lately. I'm digging feta cheese on salads with dried cranberries. Alas. None of that is meat.
13. What do you get every time you go into Wal-Mart? HAHAHAHA! I've boycotted Walmart for about eight years now. I do, however, boo loudly whenever I go by one. I recently was at a festival and saw their little marketing folk riding around on segways asking passers-by "Why do YOU love Walmart?!" I yelled out, as I passed, about fair trade and human rights, which both pleased and highly embarrassed my companion at the time.
14. What famous person would you like to have dinner with? Orlando Bloom. He is one hot elf.
15. Have you ever crashed your vehicle? Yes. Stupid islands in the middle of the road jumping out in front of me.
16. Ever had to use a fire extinguisher for its intended purpose? Not me, but I've been around when others have used them. As I'm absolutely no use in an emergency, I think I'm fine going through life not being called on to actually use one.
17. Ring tone? Something that came with the phone. Wow. This question just really bored me.
18. Strangest place you have ever brushed your teeth? In a little bathroom with two roommates brushing at the same time. We all looked at each other in the mirror and started laughing because it's wierd to be crammed together all brushing at the same tempo.
19. Somewhere in California you've never been and would like to go? LA. I know people who live there. I hear Orlando Bloom is a hot elf and he probably lives there, too.
20. At this point in your life would you rather start a new career or a new relationship? Umm. Hmm. I'm starting music school in five weeks (eeek!!!). I suspect that counts as a career change? Maybe?
21. How old are you? 31.416
22. Do you have a go-to person? I have a go-to triad. I've done this for many years, though the members of the triad change over time with moves and life adventures.
23. Are you where you want to be in life? Depends on my interpretation of the day. Living in the Hobbit Hole (a garage), starting music school (where I'm getting my butt kicked), driving a green car (instead of the bus more often), and drinking coffee (that is sometimes crappy) can either be positive or paranthetical, depending.
24. Growing up, what were your favorite cartoons? Oh my. I still watch Saturday morning cartoons. It's a soothing way to drink coffee instead of watching the news and getting all stressy. I don't remember too many from growing up, but there were Gummy Bears (?), Duck Tales, Animaniacs, Smurfs, Thundercats, She-Ra, Rainbow Bright (am I making this up?), Jem?, the Flintstones (which is a HIGHLY sexist show when you watch it with grown-up eyeballs), and onward. These are dredged up from the murky back-waters of memory.
25. What about you do you think has changed the most? Um. Hmm. I'm about 1000% better at standing up for myself. My improved vocabulary might having something to do with that. I'm much more likely to tell someone off when I don't have to use only G-rated language.
26. Looking back at high school were they the best years of your life? Yeah, not so much. College was better. Grad school #1 was better. We'll see what grad school #2 is like.
27. Are there times you still feel like a kid? Yeah. I still laugh at dumb jokes (Q: what is brown and sticky? A: a stick!!!)
28. Where was the hang out spot when you were a teenager? Cars. Preferably zooming about town looking for adventures.
29. Were you the type of kid you would want your children to hang out with? I've been accused multiple times over the years that I'm a bad influence. So yes. Yes.
30. Who do you think impacted your life the most? Bobby McFerrin. Hmm. As that is completely random and untrue, I suspect I am still channelling Dylan.
31. Do you tell stories that start with “when I was your age”? No, but I read one that said "To the next generation: when I was your age, if I wanted to steal music, I had to get off my ass and go down to the cd store!" It was BRILLIANT!
