Okay, I give in.
Were you named after anyone?
My paternal aunt; Holden Caulfield's baby sister.
When did you last cry?
Can't recall exactly; sometime in the last month, of frustration and exhaustion.
Do you like your handwriting?
Yes. I perfected it to my own specifications in high school. However, I cannot write well with a ballpoint pen.
What is your favorite lunchmeat?
Bacon.
Any bad habits?
Nose picking. Well, you ASKED!
What is your most embarrassing CD on the shelf?
Alicia Keys? Well, that's the one I just don't like and want to be rid of. I don't have a lot of CDs.
If you were another person, would YOU be friends with you?
No, because I'd be too shy to meet me, and I'd find myself too standoffish, not recognizing my own shyness.
Have you ever told a secret you swore not to tell?
Not that I remember, though I've told things I knew I shouldn't have. Sometimes I get on a TMI jag, pretending it fosters intimacy, when it just makes me look like an ass.
Do looks matter?
If you're lookin'.
How do you release anger?
Clean the house. This also works for stress.
Where is your second home?
Woods Hole, MA.
Do you trust others easily?
No.
What class in school do you think is totally useless?
Typing. No, I'm not defensive! Yes, I type with two fingers. I just don't see how anyone could learn to type from a class, at school.
Do you have a journal?
I have several that I tried to throw away six months ago, and mr. flea rescued them from the trash, claiming I'd want to look back on them some day. He's wrong, but they're still in a pile in the study.
Do you use sarcasm a lot?
Less than I used to.
Have you ever been in a mosh pit?
No.
What are your nicknames?
flea.
Would you bungee jump?
For large sums of money, yes. Voluntarily, for "fun", no.
Do you untie your shoes when you take them off?
I mostly wear clogs.
Do you think that you are strong?
Yes. I am a rock in a crisis, even, as I found out having a baby, my own. I can't bench press much, but I can draw on my inner strength.
How many wisdom teeth do you have?
Four.
How many people have a crush on you right now?
None.
What color pants are you wearing?
Grey wool.
What are you listening to right now?
The hammering of construction crews digging out the foundation for the new addition at work. There's bedrock removal, and it's loud. They usually finish by 8 am weekdays.
Last thing you ate?
Raisin bran, cranberry-apple juice and lady grey tea. Brekkie.
Last person you talked to on the phone?
My mother, last night. mr. flea got her printer working!
The first thing you notice about the opposite sex?
Bearing, for lack of a better word. The way the body's held, the way they walk, shoulders.
Do you like the person who sent you this?
Mememememe.
Favorite drink?
Cider.
Do you wear contacts?
No.
Siblings?
Sister, brother, stepsister who barely counts emotionally, baby half brother, baby half sister (the babies now being 19 and 17, respectively!).
Favorite month?
April. Spring bulbs and promises!
Are you too shy to ask someone out?
Yes.
Hugs or kisses?
Both. But selectively.
Living arrangements?
Rented bungalow with husband, baby, and cat.
What books are you reading?
A Rural Life, Verlyn Klinkenborg. Loving it, though it's completely wrong for reading on the bus, which is what I'm doing.
What's on your mousepad?
"Workplace Behaviors: Open Communication, Flexibility, Integrity and Trustworthiness ... blah blah HR-cakes."
What did you watch on TV last night?
Nothing.
What's the first thing you think when you wake up in the morning?
Time to make the doughnuts.
