the fan

my mom

7.Do you like the person who sent this to you?
Well, I stole, but I do indeed like very much the person I stole it from

8.How old are you today?
41

9.What is your favourite sport to watch on TV?
Ick. I hate sports.

10.What is your favourite drink?
Non Alcohol: Starbucks black iced tea, unsweetened
Alcohol: a fabulous fruity martini such as pear, peach, apple, lemon or a Sidecar

11.Have you ever dyed your hair?
Hell yes. Going this Thursday to dye the grey out

12.Favourite food
Oh heavens. Really? It's so hard to pick one thing. Healthy: avocado (I know, it's got some fat). Not healthy: McDonald's french fries (sticks o' fat)

13.What is the last movie you watched?
Pride and Glory w/Ed Norton, Colin Farrell...cop drama. It was OK.

14.Favourite day of the year?
Hmmm...either Halloween or the day before Christmas

15.How do you vent anger?
Murder. No, no, I'm kidding peeps! Oh heck, ranting like a wild woman, blogging, swearing, talking to my friends, mom, cats, the walls. Also turning it inside which sucks because then it turns into depression.

16.What was your favourite toy as a child?
You guys must remember Colorforms? Or how about the Easy Bake Oven? Or the Lite Brite? Am I spelling this right?? Also, my Barbie was pretty rad. Sadly I didn't know at the time how she was subconsciously destroying my self-esteem, haha.


17.What is your favourite season?
Autumn - you go Sandy!

18.Cherries or Blueberries?
Blueberries. Chock full o' antioxidants.

19.Do you want your friends to e-mail you back?
Honestly, I don't care.

20.Who is the most likely to respond?
Why everyone, of course. I am adored.

21.Who is least likely to respond?
People who don't read my blog.

22.Living arrangements?
Tiny but modern 1/1 apartment with cathedral ceilings, granite counter tops, partial wood floors, etc. Very nicely furnished. Kitchen so small even I can barely fit into it. Hundreds and hundreds of books. Two amazing, beautiful, smart, witty, cats who throw up on the carpet at least every other day.

23.When was the last time you cried?
Earlier today, when Michelle Obama said she was a product of the wonderful education and all the educators she had growing up. Teachers get nothing but crap or lip service but I felt she really meant it and I'm eternally grateful for her for saying it.

24.What is on the floor of your closet?
So many clothes, shoes, a giant down bedspread...so much a corpse could be under there and I wouldn't know it.

25.Who is the friend you have had the longest that you are sending to?
Sandy!!!!!!!!! I think it's been almost 7 years though since I've seen her. :(

26.What did you do last night?
Watched The Office, peed in my pants laughing (ok, I didn't but seriously, The Office was that funny), read, did some laundry, turned my digital photos into zip files on the computer, read, went to bed.

27.What are you most afraid of?
FLYING! The next thing would be flying, flying and flying. Oh and spiders. Especially if they're flying.

28.Plain, cheese, or spicy hamburgers?
Cheese please. I love cheese far too much. We need to break it off now.

29.Favourite dog breed?
CATS RULE, DOGS DROOL! Dogs are the whores of the animal kingdom. Ok, so I think you get I'm a cat person. But I do ADORE Jack Russell Terriers, even though they are basically four legs and tail on METH and CRACK. I also love King Charles Cavaliers...I think they're cocker spaniels. Oh and I'm sorry, I DO LOVE Chiauaua's. Especially the teacup ones. Paris Hilton has given them a bad name. It's not their fault she buys 62 million of them, forgets about all of them except the one she sticks in her Louis Vuitton toy dog bag and forgets about that one.

30.Favourite day of the week?
Friday. Anticipation rules.

31.How many states have you lived in?
Mentally? No, I'm kidding. Just one, the eternally broke and fucked up Cali.

32.Diamonds or pearls?
Diamonds! The diamond is my birthstone, so naturally, no one ever gets me my birthstone as a gift. Sob. However, I also adore aquamarine.

33.What is your favorite flower?
The yellow rose. But NOT FROM TEXAS!

I've tried three times to leave a comment but somehow got deleted all three times. Lets see if this one sticks. I'm so with you on the french fries! Anyone that knows me will tell you I'm about the healthiest eater they know. Its almost disgusting. What they don't know are my guilty pleasures such as McD fries, cheetos, m&ms (plain or peanut) and a host of other sinful goodies. (hmm.. another potential blog topic?) Anyway, you made me LOL as usual, esp about the mental states - I'm sure we've all experienced more than a few of those!

today's word: cativ (captive by cats?)

LOL @ flying spiders!

And for Michelle, well, when she went to school things were still pretty good for teachers. It's not the same now.
