It's Meme Time...
Leave me a comment saying "Resistance is Futile."
• I'll respond by asking you five questions so I can satisfy my curiosity.
• Update your journal with the answers to the questions.
• Include this explanation in the post and offer to ask other people questions (and i'll actually try to think of decent questions)

1. What is your dream job?
If I were good at math, I could be lots of things that sound amazingly cool -- marine architect, veterinarian, NASA Engineer, and software developer among many others. Right now, I really just want something where I'm not sitting on my ass all day long and had an excuse to do some exercise (and payed better, too!)... I really just want to write & illustrate books one day though! I guess that's my real dream!
2. Are you a better cook or a better baker? Who does the cooking in your house and are you adventurous foodwise?
Oh definitely a cook! I'm not one for sweets (though I do love chocolate and work VERY well with it... and breakfast bads i.e., pancakes). Alfred and I actually fight over who cooks. He's excellent too, but I think I'm more adventurous (Helloooo!!! Andrew Zimmern is my hero!). He's PICKY.
3. You can only have one type of pet for the rest of your life (lizard, cat, dog, snake, etc.). What would it be?
CATS!
4. Human kids - yes, no, maybe so? Why or why not?
Maybe someday. I don't like kids, but I think I would like my own someday.
5. Do you believe in ghosts? Ever encountered anything really spooky?
I really hate to have to, but all the neighborhood spooks seem to really like my house (my parents' bathroom and hallway in particular). However, the only time I ever saw one personally was at work several years back when I worked for my ex. I was alone in the office (ex/boss was on his honeymoon in Spain at the time) and I feel someone staring at me while I was working at my desk. I look up towards the hallway and saw an tall, obese man wearing a white shirt (kinda like a chef shirt) with a mop of curly blond hair and a walrus mustache blankly staring at me. I look away quickly and he was gone. Later that week, I found out from ex's parents, who run an accounting firm in the same strip mall that the head chef from the mall's ballroom committed a murder suicide when he caught his wife cheating on him with one of the staff. when I described what I saw, his parents said "yup! That's exactly what he looked like"!
My dad and my brother have actually seen people in my house (one guy was a neighbor of ours -- 20-year-old kid with bi-polar disorder -- who committed suicide right when my dad & I were walking passed his house). And some old guy (my mom said it always smells like old ppl cologne when this happens) likes to turn on the shower and touch my mom at night.
