47 random questions

My son & his friends keep doing these random questionnaires on Facebook. I keep reading them and thinking my answers would be a way lot better than theirs. So, I compiled alot of these notes with a couple more mature ones that my friends did. I removed the stupid questions (like "have you ever swallowed gum on purpose?" and "have you gone a whole week without washing your hands?") and came up with this.

1. The phone rings. Who do you want it to be? Well, let's start with a difficult one. Actually, I don't really want the phone to ring. I'm in the middle of this not loving to talk on the phone phase. It's nothing personal. I'm just weird, I guess.

2. When shopping at the grocery store, do you return your cart? Hmmm...well, if the cart corral is close by, then yeah. If not, then I'll push it right up to the front of my car and make sure it's not gonna move. Don't they pay someone to round those things up later?

3. In a social setting, are you more of a talker or a listener? Well, I have been called a very good listener. But I talk alot, too. I believe it's because I've surrounded myself with talkers and I'm trying my best to be heard over all the commotion.

4. Do you take compliments well? Not usually. I'm better at complimenting myself.

5. Do you play Sudoku? Yeah. And I rock at it. Well, unless KD is playing, too.

6. If abandoned alone in the wilderness, would you survive? If by wilderness you mean my living room with all its amenities, then yeah.

7. Did you ever go to camp as a kid? Yeah. Garaywa. Shoccoe Springs. Camp McMurray. In fact, I still go to camp. Every summer.

8. Do you like to pursue or be pursued? Oh definitely pursued. I'll pursue for a little while, but if I don't get anything back, then forget it.

9. Use three words to describe yourself? Loyal. Lazy. What's another word that starts with L?

10. Do any songs make you cry? Good grief. I buy songs that make me cry on purpose. I don't know why I do this.

11. Are you continuing your education? Oh my word. I am as educated as I am gonna get. Seriously.

12. Do you know how to shoot a gun? I cannot say that I've ever shot a gun. But I bet I could if I tried.

13. If your house was on fire, what would be the first thing you grabbed? If we are not counting the fam & dog, then I'd have to say my big gray Bible that was re-bound & the Shiny Pink Thing.

14. How often do you read books? Every single day of my 40 years.

15. Have you ever taken pictures in a photo booth? Yeah. But it's gotten way more expensive than it was when I was younger, so notsomuch anymore.

16. Where was the furthest place you traveled today? Physically speaking, the Reservoir. Mentally, I've been all over the place.

17. Do you like mustard? Only in small quantities and only if it's mixed with honey.

18. Do you prefer to sleep or eat? I honestly don't think I can answer this one. Well, now that I think about it...if it's morning, then sleep. If it's evening, def eat. I eat breakfast for supper.

19. Do you look like your mom or dad? Well, I just asked Funandone and he says my daddy. The little brother must look like mama. Maybe that's why the little brother and I look nothing alike.

20. Can you do the splits? Hahahah. No.

21. Do you have a song stuck in your head? I always have a song stuck in my head. Right now, it's "Take Me Out to the Ballgame." Yeah, seriously.

22. What movie do you want to see right now? I wish Disney would re-release The Lion King. I'd love to see that one on the big screen again.

23. Do you own a camera phone? Yes. It's a Blackberry Pearl. It only takes so-so photos, tho.

24. How many hours of sleep do you get a night? Not enough. I really don't go to bed on time.

25. Do you have any bad habits? Yes. I stay up too late. And I am a HUGE procrastinator. (Is that considered a bad habit?)

26. Do you have any mental health issues? Wow. Yeah. I do. But I certainly cannot talk about them here.

27. What do you buy at the movies? Cinnamon pretzels. Or nachos. And a frozen coke. But only if I'm with a girlfriend. Funandone doesn't let us eat movie food.

28. Do you know how to play poker? Yep.

29. Do you wear your seatbelt? Yep. Otherwise, I fall out of my seat. Really and truly.

30. What do you wear to sleep? Jahmas. Long pants...never short ones.

31. Anything big ever happen in your hometown? Haha. No. Unless you wanna go back to days of slavery.

32. How many meals do you eat a day? At least 2.

33. Is your tongue pierced? Uh-uh. No way.

34. Do you always read MySpace bulletins? I haven't been on MySpace in ages. But if I was there, I'd prolly read them. Maybe I'll go check when I finish here.

35. Do you like funny or serious people better? I need my people to be seriously funny.

36. Ever been to L.A? Yep. A long time ago. And while there, I met the Incredible Hulk.

37. Did you eat a cookie today? I really wish I had some cookies in this house cause I would eat them right now.

38. Do you use cuss words in other languages? Maybe.

39. Do you steal or pay for your music downloads? I pay. All the time. It's a hobby.

40. Do you hate chocolate? No. Who hates chocolate? There are things I like better, tho. Like strawberry cake. And mint ice cream.

41. What do you and your parents fight about the most? My daddy and I fight over the air conditioner in the car. I'm in the back seat and he's up front. It's hot in the back and he always says, "Be patient, Junebug. It's coming." He says that cause he already has all the cold air up front.

42. If you could have any job (assuming you have the skills) what would it be? Oh, I have all kinds of skills, but def in the photography field. Like my own studio and stuff like that.

43. Are you easy to get along with? Oh no. Not at all.

44. What is your favorite time of day? This is really a hard question. We'd all expect me to say late night, but I don't think it would be true. I actually really like the time of day when I've just finished at the gym and I know I have the rest of the day ahead of me. Unless it's a stressful day a comin'. Oh, I don't know. Maybe I shouldn't have included this question. I can't take if off now cause it would mess up my numbers and I don't have the heart to fix them all.

45. Have you ever completely flunked a test? Yes. One time, I wrote my name on a test and then turned it right in to the teacher and walked out. I'm not proud of this.

46. Have you ever gotten detention? In high school, all the time. Well, it was actually ISS (in-school suspension). I simply cannot remember why, tho. I'm sure I didn't deserve it.

47. What would you do with a million dollars? How much does a boat cost? No. I'd rip up this hateful carpet and replace it with hardwood. And then I'd give the rest of it to Geno so he could put up a covering over Soul Station.

And now that I'm done here, I have to go make mini-muffins for Sunday School tomorrow. For something like 40 people. I forgot till right now. Aargh.
