survey i stole from pepper

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

1. Do you open people’s medicine cabinets? Do you feel, on the whole, guiltier when you get caught or don’t get caught? Do you feel guilty about not feeling guilty enough when you don’t get caught?

no

 2. What was the first "adult" book you recall reading? (As opposed to kids’ books.)

no idea, but prob pretty early. 

 3. As a little kid, did you consciously act like a little kid?

Sort of. i was always really careful not to get hurt or dirty (i hated having dirty hands.)

4. As far as places you’ve been, if you are tallying the list for the sheer pleasure of a large number, do airports count?

what?? sure. i flew to the dominican for our honeymoon. 🙂 actually, it wasn’t crowded at all when we returned in the middle of the night. i think the most crowded places i go to are fight venues.

 5. What is the longest you’ve ever gone without speaking to another human? Do you think you could go a week?

i don’t think i’ve gone without talking to someone for an extended a period of time. i was a waitress for years; it would be weird not to talk to people! haha even when dennis went hunting for 10 days at a time, my mom or a friend prob stopped by. then i had kids and haven’t been alone since.

6. For whom have you caused the greatest joy?

Dennis, and prob my parents bc i am their only child who doesn’t ask them for money bc i spent all mine on crap and can’t pay my bills. 😉 

7. When is the last time you purchased pornography?

it’s been a while! we used to go to a store and buy movies every now and then but i think it’s been a couple years.

8. When was the last time you ran as fast as you possibly could?

i never overdo it when i run but the coach tries to push us to sprint in class. nowadays i don’t go fast at all!

9. Do you ever find yourself (particularly when dressed up) tallying up the total cost of all that you have on?

i guess, or i laugh bc everything i’m wearing is from one store, like Old Navy. an outfit of mine could range from really inexpensive (though my shoes aren’t generally cheap) second hand stuff to a $70 dress.

10. Is "like" your vocal tic, or is it "you know"?

i don’t know really. i probably have many. i like to call dennis "dude" but that’s just to make him raise his eyebrows at me. haha

11. In what grade in school did people begin to "date"? Were you in on this?

hmmm i think i was around grade 7? not sure.

12. If you had to dispose of a dead body, how would you?

i’d make dennis take care of it 😉

13. Who is your least judgmental friend?

Dennis. he puts up with all my weird quirks and never seems to let it bother him at all (i have to sit in certain spots no matter where we go, i have a spot on the couch that is mine, i stop to pee a lot on trips and nothing ever makes him complain.)

14. What is the first website you go to after you check your email?

i open my outlook (my personal email) and then check hotmail (my facebook email) and then probably OD.

15. What is the longest book or series of books you’ve ever read? Are you at a loss when you finish?

i don’t know. i read a lot of the Sweet Valley High books. i read the Chronicles of Narnia. more recently, these series: Twilight. Sookie Stackhouse. Vampire Academy.  House of Night. Thirst. (are you seeing the theme?) Does Vogue count? i’ve been reading that since i was a teen. i used to get at least 10 books a week from the library as a teen to read.

16. Do you like watching flying helium balloons disappear into specks? Do you watch loved ones disappear on train platforms or in rearview mirrors? Do you watch as long as you can?

sometimes i watch Dennis walk up the street when he’s on the way to the club or i watch him come home. i don’t think he knows that. i watch from the window. or i’ll watch him start his run when he runs outdoors (we have a treadmill now)

17. As a host, are you skilled and willing, skilled and unwilling, unskilled and willing, or unskilled and unwilling? In general, do you feel it’s your fault if someone is not having a good time?

hmmm i think i’m skilled and willing. we don’t host that often and it’s usually casual. sometimes it’s a few fighters who are on strict regimens so i don’t have to serve them anything. sometimes it’s the boys’ bday parties. we serve cake and stuff but nothing exciting. last time, we got pizza for everyone. most people bring their own booze if it’s the sort of thing you drink at. Dennis and i work as a team so people are prob fairly satisfied. people around here are casual; they don’t really come to parties looking for you to entertain them. they come to hang out with their friends so they’re very likely going to have fun. when i have friends over to visit me, i try to have food and drinks for them unless it’s a playdate. then things just unfold as they will.

18. If you opened the hood of your own smoking car, would you have any idea what you were looking at?

Nope!

19. How often do you Google yourself?

i don’t know if i have.

20. At what age was your first kiss? How often do you think of this? More than once a year?

i forget. i think grade 7.

21. How often do you sleep till you wake? Is there anything better than climbing into bed and knowing this, knowing you’ll besleeping an indefinite length?

often on sundays or nights the boys are sleeping over at someone’s house bc we went out.

22. If you could own a pro sports franchise, which sport would it be? Which team?

it wouldn’t be a team. i’d own the UFC 😉

23. Who was y

our favorite teacher? Is s/he still where s/he was, still teaching?

my teacher in grade 5 was my fave grade school teacher. in university, i had some amaaaazing professors, esp. my Shakespeare prof and the prof who was head of the dept for a while. 

24. At what age did you cease taking baths or cease exclusively taking baths?

i don’t know.

25. What is your favorite month?

anything that involves summer or NO winter. probabley june or july. i do like december but ONLY because Christmas is my fave holiday. i hate winter.
