Questions

ARE YOU:

1. A cuddler? Not by habit but by effort.
2. A morning person? I really do enjoy the quiet mornings. Especially if it involves the outdoors.
3. Are you a perfectionist? I've come to realize that nothing in this world is without error. While I rationally accept that, I'm still rarely satisfied with anything less.
4. An only child? No.
5. Catholic or Protestant? Neither. I'm not Catholic and my religious vote won't be spent in protest.
6. In your pajamas? Of sorts - my sleeping shorts and t-shirt.
7. Currently suffering from a broken heart? Yes - how do you lose in the first round two years in a row with a $200 million payroll?
8. Okay styling other people's hair? I cut my own hair and it's passable-to-decent. I cut Brian's hair last year and I was a bit nervous.
9. Left handed? No.
10. Addicted to MySpace? I'm not addicted to anything that passes itself off as some sort of democratic playground but is elitist at its core.
11. Shy around the opposite gender? Sometimes I'll revert to my high school stuttering-muttering ways if she's really cute.
12. Loud? Myself, no. My music, yes, at times.

DO YOU:

12. Bite your nails? Can't stand jagged, uneven nails.
13. Get paranoid at times? I prefer over-conspiratorial.
14. Currently regret something that you have said/done? I'd rather have regrets of commission than omission.
15. Curse frequently when you get mad? No, I've pretty much learned to control my mouth, especially when temper is involved. Texas/OU for about 6 years might have been a different question, though.
16. Enjoy country music? Sure, where do they play it? It's not on the radio anymore.
17. Enjoy jazz music? As much as I enjoy oxygen.
18. Enjoy smoothies? Not enough to purchase them with any real frequency.
19. Enjoy talking on the phone? Not really, but I understand its necessity.
20. Have a lot to learn? Why do you think I read as much as I do? I'm afraid to find out how stupid I really am.
21. Have a pet? Logan, the best blind beagle in the world.
22. Have a tendency to fall for the "wrong" person? A tendency, no - although it did happen in college.
23. Have all your grandparents died? I have one remaining grandparent.
24. Have at least one sibling? Yes.
25. Have been told that you are smart? Not by anybody who knew what they were talking about.
26. Have had a broken bone? I have never broken a bone. I feel like I'm missing out on something.
27. Have Caller I.D. on your phone? How else would I know whether to answer?

HAVE YOU:

28. Changed a diaper? Yes.
29. Changed a lot over the past year? Leaps and bounds.
30. Had friends who have never seen your natural hair color? No.

LAST PERSON WHO:

1. Slept in the bed beside you? Melissa.
2. Saw you cry? I can't remember the last time I've cried in front of anybody else; that's embarrassing.
3. Went to the movies with you? Melissa and Brooke.
4. You went to the mall with? I can't remember the last time I was at a mall.
5. You went to dinner with? Melissa, Larry, and Colleen.
6. You talked to on the phone? Melissa warned me about a wreck on the toll road this morning.
7. Said 'I love you' to you and meant it? Melissa.
8. Broke your heart? The Yankees - October just ain't the same.
9. Made you laugh? Colbert.

WOULD YOU RATHER?

1. Pierce your nose or tongue? I'd go with the nose.
2. Be serious or be funny? To everything turn, turn, turn...
3. Drink whole or skim milk? Anything less than whole might as well come out of the faucet.
4. Die in a fire or drown? This has actually been a constant debate.

From what I understand, once the nerve endings have been destroyed, the rest (minus the olfactory nightmare) is supposedly euphoric bliss. However, I've read accounts of people who have been legally dead due to drowning, only to regain life. Their recollection is of complete peace and true connection with a higher consciousness so that sounds kinda cool.

But despite my Piscean nature, I'm not a big fan of the subterranean. So I go with fire.
