seldneiTired of all of those surveys made up by high school kids?
'Have you ever kissed someone?'
'Missed someone?'
'Told someone you loved them?'
'Drank alcohol?'
Here are 50 questions for the people who are a little more "mature"...
1. What bill do you hate paying the most?
Credit cards.
2. Where was the last place you had a romantic dinner?
I honestly don't remember. Probably the living room floor.
3. Last time you puked from drinking?
Never. I don't drink.
4. When is the last time you got drunk and danced on a bar?
Never. See above.
5.What did you want to be when you were growing up?
Pretty much what I am now. Except I didn't think I'd want a kid until I was about 23 or so.
7. How many colleges did you attend?
University of Evansville for undergrad, and University of Louisiana-Lafayette for grad school.
8. Why did you choose the shirt that you have on right now?
It's hot, and we have the air off to conserve energy.
11. Gas price?
$3.55 at the last place I checked.
12. If you could move anywhere and take someone with you?
I would.
Oh, wait, you're asking me for a city and a person, aren't you? Okay, I'd move to London and take Scott and Z. with me.
13. First thought when the alarm went off this morning?
The alarm didn't go off this morning! And the boy is at his grandmother's! That said, my first thought this morning was something along the lines of, Wow, Z slept in ... wait ... crap, I don't have to be awake this early, dammit!
14. Last thought before going to sleep last night?
You know, for people who can't regulate their body heat, the Peacekeepers sure do wear a lot of leather. (I was watching Farscape last night.)
15. Favorite style of underwear?
"Mature"? Really?
16. Favorite style of underwear for the opposite sex?
Say it with me ...
17. What errand/chore do you despise?
All of them. Seriously. Oh, wait, I like shopping for school supplies.
18. If you didn't have to work, would you volunteer?
Depends on whether or not Z. was in school full-time.
19. Get up early or sleep in?
Either--it depends on the day.
20. Who is your favorite cartoon character?
(sings) He's a semi-aquatic, egg-layin' mammal of action ... HE'S PERRY! PERRY THE PLATYPUS!
21. Favorite NON sexual thing to do at night with a girl/guy?
Snark on bad movies. Watch Doctor Who. Or just talk.
22. Have you found real love yet?
Yes.
23. When did you first start feeling old?
When I had to explain to my younger friend that I didn't have e-mail at college until junior year, and neither did anyone else there.
24. Favorite 80's movie?
Better Off Dead.
25. Your favorite lunch meat?
Bologna.
26. What do you get every time you go into walmart?
I don't shop at Wal-Mart.
27. Beach or lake?
Beach.
28. Do you think marriage is an outdated ritual?
I wouldn't call marriage a ritual. Weddings, on the other hand, I'd say are. And no, I don't, but I don't think they're a requirement for long-term commitment, and I think marriage ought to be readily available to everyone who wants it.
29. How many people do you stalk on Facebook?
What do you mean by "stalk," here? Because I'm thinking nobody.
30. Favorite guilty pleasure?
I don't believe in guilty pleasures. I own my cheesy trash tastes.

Okay, if I didn't want anyone to know about it, why would I answer this question?
32. What's your drink?
Coke.

David Addison. (I was never a fan of "Cheers.")
38. The Cosby Show or the Simpsons?
Hmmm. I think The Simpsons.
39. Do you like the person who sits directly across from you at work?
That's really not how my job works. But I like most of my co-workers just fine.
40. If you could get away with it, who would you kill?
Hitler. Screw the time stream, full steam ahead!
41. What famous person(s) would you like to have dinner with?
Johnny Depp. I don't think I'd be a total starstruck nerdgirl over him, so we could have a nice meal and talk about Patti Smith.
42. What famous person(s) would you like to sleep with?
Ack, what? No, this is much like the underwear question, and I'm declaring myself too old for it.
43. Have you ever had to use a fire extinguisher for its intended purpose?

Yes.

God, I don't want to do either. But career, if I have to.

When you have 50 questions, I think there are statistics that some of them will be crap.
I am jealous of your experiences of being in Ireland.
