Stolen Meme


I got this off yellojkt. I may be sorry for it too someday, but what the hell.


GRUB-OLOGY
What is your salad dressing of choice?
Safeway Organic something or another. It's like an Asian thingy. It's fat free too.

What is your favorite fast food restaurant?
Hm. Taco Bell is where I go for the least guilt. Burgerville for the milkshakes...

What is your favorite sit down restaurant?
We go to this local Vietnamese/Thai place for salad rolls, pot stickers, pho (beef noodle soup), and other stuff. But the meal I come back to a lot is this one time we met up with a friend and went to a restaurant called Geno's, had like a shrimp scampi thing, good conversation, etc. It was the perfect night, kinda late, kinda cold out, felt cosy and intimate and warm in the restaurant.

On average, what size tip do you leave at a restaurant?
About 20 percent. We round up a bit generally; way, way up if the baby is along.

The aforementioned salad rolls, with peanut sauce. I had some tonight.

Cream cheese, sour cream, anything hot-pepper hot.

What is your favorite dish to order in a Chinese restaurant?
Garlic chicken, or garlic and black bean chicken if it's available.

We get pine & swine a lot, but given my druthers, I like sausage, mushrooms, and onions.

Butter and peanut butter, or butter and cinnamon sugar.

What is your favorite type of gum?
I like Bubblemint flavor, I don't remember which brand that is, I want to say Orbit.

TECH-OLOGY
Number of contacts in your cell phone?

Probably around 20.

Number of contacts in your email address book?
Same.

What is your wallpaper on your computer?
This is a new machine so it's some pinky orangey sunset thing that was in the sample photo folder. I like to change it a lot so once I have time to get photos onto this thing, it will vary alot. Frequently the baby figures pretty heavily.

What is your screensaver on your computer?
Five photos of the baby which I include one of now:




Are there naked pictures saved on your computer?
Probably one of the baby, on the other machine, but I doubt much of her personal regions are showing.

How many land line phones do you have in your house?
One VOIP, two cell phones.

How many televisions are in your house?
Two, one in the family room and one in the bedroom.

What kitchen appliance do you use the least?
The pasta maker. I guess it's more of a gadget.

What is the format of the radio station you listen to the most?
Kind of a pop-rock thingy, not too alternative, not too bubblegummy. That and NPR.

How many sex toys do you own that require batteries?
Yikes. I'm so not answering any sex questions.

BI-OLOGY
What do you consider to be your best physical attribute?

My forearms. They are reasonably shapely. My wrists are quite nice also.

Are you right handed or left handed?
Right handed, like all normal people. Ha ha!

Do you like your smile?
Better since I got my funky front tooth fixed (crown was too white and too big and stuck out when I smiled). But way too many chins.

Have you ever had anything removed from your body?
Hm. I guess a chunk of my leg bone, I had a bone tumor. And my wisdom teeth.

Would you like to?
Nah.

Do you prefer to read when you go to the bathroom?
Well, now that all depends. Sometimes it is the first opportunity I've had all day for some unattended peace and quiet.

Which of your five senses do you think is keenest?
Eyesight, if corrected. I don't miss much.

It's been a few years. I don't recall offhand.

The baby, age 26 months, around 28 pounds.

Have you ever been knocked unconscious?
Nope.

MISC-OLOGY
If it were possible, would you want to know the day you were going to die?
Tough one. Maybe, just so I could prepare the baby for it, or prepare a videotape if she was too young to understand yet.

If you could change your first name, what would you change it to?
I've always been partial to Frodo. Ha ha, just kidding. The names that come to mind are all weird Celtic ones like Fiona.

How do you express your artistic side?
Calligraphy, beading, scrapbooking, blogging.

What color do you think you look best in?
Blue, or green. Depends on the shade.

How long do you think you could last in a medium security prison?
However long I had to. Hopefully never.

Have you ever swallowed a non-food item by mistake?
Not that I recall, but once I did find myself chewing on something as I rode my bike when I was a kid. It turned out to be an earwig. Also, some of the meals served to us in youth/tourist hotels in Soviet Russia were sort of borderline non-food.

If we weren’t bound by society’s conventions, do you have a relative you would make a pass at?
No. Which is not to say that I have unattractive relatives, but eeeuw.

How often do you go to church?
Most Sundays.

Have you ever saved someone’s life?
Not that I know of.

Has someone ever saved yours?
Don’t think so. But now I have that Elton John song running through my head.

DARE-OLOGY
Would you walk naked for a half mile down a public street for $100,000?
I once ran through a crowd in my swimsuit at a triathlon, then had to walk back to the transition area when it turned out I was too late for the swim. So naked a half mile would be okay, if I could see the cash beforehand. And I got to wear sunblock.

Would you kiss a member of the same sex for $100?
Hell yeah. Where do I sign up?

Would you have sex with a member of the same sex for $10,000?
If in this theoretical situation I was single, and they were attractive, then I might do it for free. But not for money. I am nobody's whore. Generally. And if I were, 10 grand would not be enough.

Would you allow one of your little fingers to be cut off for $200,000?
With anaesthesia? Maybe the left one.

Would you never blog again for $50,000?
Probably.

Would you pose naked in a magazine for $250,000?
Tastefully a la Vanity Fair, yes. Hustler, no.

Would you drink an entire bottle of hot sauce for $1000?
I'd need a lot of Tums, but maybe.

Would you, without fear of punishment, take a human life for $1,000,000?
Never. Only in self defense or defense of others. Let's hope in that case there would be a hefty reward.

Would you shave your head and get your entire body waxed for $5,000?
Show me the money. But I'd opt for laser hair removal in certain key areas, not to avoid pain but because then I would never have to shave again.

Would you give up watching television for a year for $25,000?
Hell yes. I kind of wish someone would pay me 25k so I could be broken of this bad habit.
