Bueller?
Ganked from Vicki. I like the premise of this. And since there are few things I like talking about more than myself...
* * * * *
Tired 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 some questions for the people who are a little more mature. (Meant to be completed by those out of high school)
1. What bill do you hate paying the most? My monthly eBay fees. It's like, Yay! I can afford another Barbie! Oh, wait -- have to pay my fees.
2. What's the best place to eat a romantic dinner? The basement, in front of the t.v. What?
3. Last time you puked from drinking? Never ever. I kid you not. Wanted to, the New Year's Eve I was 20, but never actually have. Real pirates can hold their rum.
4. When is the last time you got drunk and danced on a bar? Heh. People dance on bars for ME, not vice-versa.
5. Name of your first grade teacher? God, I remember kindergarten and second and third grades --McDonald, Klein and Kubala -- but not first. Damn. Did I skip a grade?
6. What do you really want to be doing right now? Napping.
7. What did you want to be when you were growing up? A veternarian. I really loved animals. But then I found out all the gross stuff that goes along with being a vet, and that was the end of the dream. Now I want to be a mermaid.
8. How many colleges did you attend? One. But I partied at many. (Don't tell my Mom!)
9. Why did you wear the shirt that you have on right now? Because brown is my new fav color to wear, and I've been told this particular sweater is very flattering on me. And it was next up in the rotation.
10. GAS PRICES! First thought? Now it only costs $40 to fill my SUV instead of $60!
11. If you could move anywhere and take someone with you... Oslo, Norway, by my cousins. I'd love to live somewhere where I'm surrounded by my ancestral history. My paternal grandfather is somewhat famous in the town I live in, but I want HUNDREDS of years of history. I love my country, but I yearn for a place that doesn't knock down any building that's over a century old to put up a mini-mall. And I'd take Husband with me, but only because Billi and Spikette (nee Older Sister) probably wouldn't let me take their children. Well, maybe Boy Child...
12. First thought when the alarm went off this morning? Crap. Now the puppy is going to start warbling (she doesn't whine, per se -- she yodels).
13. Last thought before going to sleep last night? If Husband doesn't get his ass in bed right now, I'm going to kill him while he sleeps. And then he'll always be in bed.
14. Favorite style of underwear?? Under jeans, thong (hate V.P.L.). Under work pants, granny panties for comfort. But always Victoria's Secret.
15. Favorite style of underwear for the opposite sex? Boxer briefs. The best of both worlds!
16. What errand/chore do you despise? Grocery shopping. Which is ironic, since I love other shopping. But seriously, I HHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHATE it.
17. If you didn't have to work, would you volunteer at an art gallery? Why the hell would I volunteer at an art gallery? I'm not against volunteering, or art, but I can think of lots of other places more worthy of my time.
18. Get up early or sleep in? Does anyone ever answer Sleep in? Well, actually, I'm used to getting up early on weekdays now. If I don't, I feel like I've wasted half the day. But I'm all for sleeping in on weekends. It's a must.
19. What is your favorite cartoon character? I'd have to say Stewie from "Family Guy." I admire his honesty.
20. Favorite NON sexual thing to do at night with a girl/guy? Curl up on the couch and watch a good movie, with some crackers and dip handy. I'm a cheap date.
21. A secret that you wouldn't mind everyone knowing? People. My MOM reads this.
22. How many joints pop when you get out of bed in the morning? None. I'm always careful to take the seeds out. Bwaaaaaaaaaa ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha! I slay me.
23. What is the biggest amount of $$ you have made from a yard sale? Who says "yard sale." It's a garage sale, people! Two hundred clams and some change. Speaking of which, I can't wait for spring so I can have another one. Soooooooo much crap in my basement!
24. Your favorite lunch meat? Ham.
25. What do you get every time you go into a WAWA? Am I supposed to know what a WAWA is?
26. Beach or lake? Lake! Lake Michigan, to be specific. I've been swimming in Lake Superior, and it's GORGEOUS, but water that was still a full-on glacier fifteen years ago is just a weeeeeeeeeee bit chilly for me. My nipples almost snapped off.
27. Do you think marriage is an outdated ritual that was invented by people who died at 20? Oh, totally. Of course, that didn't stop me from falling victim to it. And I'm not sure I know of any better way, as far as having children is concerned. But if there's no kids, there's no real reason for it.
28. Who do you stalk on MySpace? My long-ago love from grade/middle/high school. Dude STILL has rock-solid abs, and he's my age.
29. Favorite guilty pleasure? Crappy pop music. Like seriously crappy. I'm talkin' Britney, Backstreet, the works. It's just so damn catchy!
30. Favorite movie you wouldn't want anyone to find out about? I have no idea. But I know Billi's! It's "Planet of the Apes!" The original, natch. She can't look away!
31. What's your drink? Water or milk. Oh, you mean booze? Kaluha and cream or a strawberry margarita. Total chick drinks, I know.
32. Cowboys or Indians? One of each, please!
33. Cops or Robbers? Neither. Too stressful!
34. Do you cheer for the bad guy? Put it this way. I was in love with Al Swearengen in Season One of "Deadwood," BEFORE he went all soft. I could really empathize with his character -- just a guy trying to get along, surrounded by fucking retards all the time. Poor thing. And the hair. Love the hair.
35. What Hollywood star do you think resembles you best? None. They're all freaks. But if I had to pick one to play me in a movie, it'd be Reese Witherspoon. Not that she necessarily looks like me, but I would trust her to best capture my essence.
36. If you had to pick one, which cast member of "Lost" would you be? Jack, so I could do everyone else on the island a favor and KILL MYSELF.
37. What do you want when you are sick? Head cold? Lemonade and hot soup. Stomach flu? Sweet, merciful death.
38. Who from high school would you like to run into? Bec Phillips. She'd probably ignore me, but twenty years later, I still miss her on a regular basis.
39. What radio station is your car radio tuned to right now? 87.9 FM, which is a non-station that I can listen to my iPod through.
42. Norm or Cliff? For what? Medical testing?
43. The Cosby Show or the Simpsons? "The Simpsons." It's a perfectly cromulent show.
44. Worst relationship mistake that you wish you could take
back? Marrying the Ex. Worst. Decision. Ever.
45. Do you like the person who sits directly across from you at work? Chick Boss is in the cube right next to mine -- at least for the next week -- and she's awesome. No annoying habits, nice and quiet, and eavesdropping on her conversations with her mom is often hilarious.
46. If you could get away with it, who would you kill? I would think that would be obvious. And I'd be a Big, Damn Hero for it, too!
47. What famous person would you like to have dinner with? You'd think my answer would be Bruce Campbell, but it wouldn't be much of a dinner without me being able to eat or speak. Or stop drooling. So Kathy Griffin. Definitely. And I'd take her anywhere she wants and pick up the bill for it. Call me, Kathy!
48. What famous person would you like to sleep with? Bruce Campbell. I wouldn't have to talk.
49. Have you ever had to use a fire extinguisher for its intended purpose? Fortunately, no. But Nicholle has! In her oven! Hee!
50. Last book you read for real? Currently, I'm finally getting around to the "Lord of the Rings" trilogy. 'Bout time, huh?
51. Do you have a teddy bear? No, I have two stuffed dogs. A yellow lab from Billi when I was in the hospital. And a rottweiler from Step Daughters when mine died in Oklahoma in the care of my dumbass Ex.
52. Strangest place you have ever brushed your teeth? In the woods on Isle Royale.
53. Somewhere in California you've never been and would like to go? That famous wax museum place.
54. Number of texts in a day? "Text?" As in -- text messages? I thought this was a survey for people out of high school?
55. At this point in your life would you rather start a new career or relationship? Career. And what a coinkidink! I am!
56. Do you go to church? Nope. I used to, and I'm not ruling it out for the future. But right now, it just doesn't do anything for me.
57. Pencil or pen? Pen. Black. Ballpoint.
58. Bueller??? Bueller??? Bueller?? I say this about once a week, and I feel like no one ever gets it. I'll keep trying.
Feel free to gank and leave me a link to your answers!

I am honored and stunned that you ganked me.(or ganked from me, not sure on the proper usage of "ganked")
