Oh lookie! I'm not dead!
Snagged from stuffy34
1. If money wasn't an issue, how would you redecorate/renovate your house
I have a 4-bedroom house with 9 people currently living here, so I'd renovate it to add three more bedrooms
2. What's one style of fashion that you can't stand?
The crotch of your pants DOES NOT belong between your knees! Seriously, that shit aggravates the life out of me. And socks with sandals. I can't stand that look either
3. If you drink coffee, how did you take your last cup? If you don't drink coffee, what was the last caffeinated drink you had?
I take my coffee with two spoons of sugar and a splash of cream
4. What are your plans for tomorrow?
Grocery shopping, laundry, teaching language arts lesson, meet with Audrey's social worker
5. If you have a dog, do you pay to get it groomed, or do you do it yourself? If you don't have a dog, would you rather pay to have it groomed or do it yourself?
My dog is a German Shepard, and she's not hard to groom, so I do it myself. We had a Lhasa Apso/Maltese mix that died a couple weeks ago, and I took her to get a puppy cut when the weather started to get warm. She had A LOT of fur
6. When it comes to surveys, do you prefer a long detailed survey that makes you think, or something that you can do in 5 minutes and be done?
It totally depends on my mood
7. What was the first really big/expensive thing you bought for yourself? (For example, a computer, iPod, car, etc.)
A car.
8. Have you ever re-listened to a band that you hadn't listened to for years? Did you get back into them or just enjoy reminiscing over the songs?
Occasionally I'll here a BSB song. I was a huge fan of them back in the day, but I haven't really gotten back into them
9. Ever been to NYC? What shops did you go to there?
Nope
10. What is a skill other people have that you are really impressed by?
People who play the piano really impress me.
11. Last time you went to the dentist, and what for?
I went in November to get a couple fillings repaired
12. Do you think that Facebook is slowly getting less and less popular? Do you think we will see that trend die off in the next 5 or so years, like MySpace, or do you think there'll always be activity on Facebook?
Facebook will always be around, I think. But I think it's getting less popular bit by bit with how they keep changing things and messing with the privacy settings
13. Has the weather where you live generally been the same all week? Is it a type of weather you enjoy, or are you ready for a change?
The weather has been sunny and cool all week and colder and clear at night. It's too sunny for my liking, but in Florida it's sunny 98% of the time
14. What's one thing that helps you get through a really cold day? How about a really hot day?
On cold days I curl up under my quilt (when I can) with a hot cup of tea, a good book, my dog, and my cat. And the kids if they'll snuggle with me. If they won't, I drink tea and wear my favorite hoodie to keep warm. On hot days, the sprinkler, lemonade,and tank tops
15. What's the worst drug that you think anyone can get into?
Hillbilly heroine. It's otherwise known as OxyContin. It's an opiod, so closely related to heroine, easier to get than heroine, cheaper, and extremely addictive
16. Do your parents make you teach them how to use new technology? Would you say this is a pain, or are you a pretty patient teacher?
Sometimes they ask me and I'll talk them through it on the phone or show them how to use it the next time I go over there
17. When something goes wrong with your computer, do you try to figure out on your own or find someone to fix the problem for you? Would you say that you're generally pretty technology-literate?
I'll troubleshoot it myself first and then if I can't fix the problem, I'll take it to computer tutors to repair.
18. What's one problem in today's world which you think is ridiculous that we haven't found a way to solve it yet?
Partisan politics bullshit. Politicians need to learn how to work for the people that elect them instead of working to push their own agenda
19. What's one animal that you can't stand or find cute at all? What's an animal that absolutely terrifies you
I find most animals cute. Except Nutria. Those things are butt ugly and destructive as hell! Scorpions terrify me though
20. If you go to the library, what was the last book you checked out? If you don't, what was the last book you purchased?
I only know this because the book is sitting right next to me. The last one I got at the library is 'C is for Corpse' by Sue Grafton
