This is Part VI of a longer meme, but since I haven't blogged forever (other than my random iPhone contemplation on roadkill, where I learned that IOS doesn't give a rat's derriere about paragraphs...), I figured this was a good way to ease back in. Check out Sunday Stealing, if you get a chance ... always an interesting read :-)
Some Christmas Eve event at his house. It's usually a good time, with lots of music and beer and reminiscing.
101. Name 4 things you always have with you.
iPhone (it's a combination extra appendage and crack), coffee, keys, and ... hmmm, underwear????
102. How many SERIOUS exes do you have?
Serious exes ... hmm, sounds a touch oxymoronic ;-) Probably four.
103. What causes you to you admire people?
Honesty, humor, and ... well, a willingness to do interesting things.
104. Do you like sports?
I do. I like to watch baseball and football on TV, and I enjoy playing random "non-sports" like badminton, ladder golf, beach volleyball, and such. And I'm a swimming maniac.
105. Would you have sex after marriage? Why or why not?
Nah, marriage takes all the fun out of it ;-)
106. What is your favorite male name?
Roran
107. Do animals go to Heaven?
They'd better, because many animals I've known are more deserving than most people.
108. Last time you had a great time with your dad?
109. What is your favorite hair style?
I am very low-maintenance. My hair just is. The idea of all the work that goes into it keeps me from really enjoying any other hair styles.
110. Do you like your name?
Sure. I mean, it's a little over-common, but it's much better than Prunella or Apple or whatever.
111. When was the last time that you quit your job?
2008. Geez, time flies ...
112. When you wake up, what is the first thing you think?
"Put the dogs out", since I usually wake up to a black lab climbing all over me and a golden retriever relentlessly licking my face.
113. Have you ever pulled an all-niter?
In my wayward youth, many times. It's been awhile ...
114. What is the perfect day for you?
Any day where I get to spend extensive time with my daughters. And cheeseburgers.
115. Last time you cleaned the bathroom?
Hmmm, when you can't answer that question off the top of your head, I guess you know it's time to clean the bathroom. Guess I know what I'm doing when I finish this ...
116. Have you ever failed a grade? Why?
I never failed a grade, but I did fail Algebra I. Twice.
My parents got divorced when I was in sixth grade, so suffice it to say that I didn't care a whole lot about school at that time (it was a pretty bad scene). As a result, I ended up tracked in low classes when I went into junior high. My eighth grade English teacher wanted me to take the placement test for Honors English when we were doing course selections for high school, and they decided to take me, for some reason.
The problem was, the school would not allow me to take Honors English and Pre-Algebra (back then, if you were exceptionally smart in one area, you could theoretically be exceptionally smart in all areas). I had to make a choice. Well, my mother had to make a choice.
Long story short, I walked into Algebra I thinking that "X" meant multiply. It went downhill from there ...
117. Have you met anyone online?
Haha, yup.
118. Have you ever smoked?
Yup...dirty, filthy, disgusting habit :-(
119. Do you like celebrities?
I do, in fact, have a minor obsession with celebrities. When I was in high school, I kept scrapbooks of different celebrities that were always in the news, and even now I can tell you random celebrity gossip facts that are completely pointless. I own the celebrity category of Trivial Pursuit ;-)
120. Do you like traveling?
Actually, I love traveling. Unfortunately, I have a deathly fear of airplanes, so my options are a bit limited. I do the best I can with what I have :-)

Well I hope you can get over that fear of airplanes. There's a whole world out there to discover, and sadly boats aren't as big a thing as they used to be. Well, they're still pretty big...that's confusing so I'll shut up.
