Funny stuff, serious stuff.

Kind of tall, brown eyes, shoulder length brown hair, goatee or short beard, white robes, kind of casual, strong (maybe He's a carpenter), and very kind and loving.
2> Describe your dream date. (where would you go, what would you do, what would you were...etc.)
I'd go out for pizza with Him and our buddy JPII.

I think the question is how many *children* HE wants.
4> what would you name your child if its a boy?
Probably not Jesus.

I'm thinking probably not Mary, either.
6> an add on to ? 1 (i know you were describing someone you already know) so what would your kids look like. ex: whose eyes, nose, mouth, coordination, skill, etc.
His everything, His eyes, His nose, His mouth, His Spirit - erm... wait...
7> what kind of house would you live in?
A huge one...
8> describe it.
A huge one with stained glass windows, lots of room for seating, soft plush carpet for the kids, a great home entertainment system (or at least some big speakers), and a Tabernacle someplace central... and water available at every entrance.
9> would you have pets?
Well no... but occasionally there would be animals there for a blessing or a messy re-enactment of the Nativity.
10> what kind and what would their names be?
A dog. And a donkey... and sheep, and horse maybe.
11> What is your dream car?
Even though the Pope-Mobile is pretty cool, I'll take a DeLorean any day.
12> If you were a character in a book, what character would you be and in what book?
I'd be Peter... from M., M., L., and J.
13> Why?
Peter is awesome! (3 steps on the water - yeah!)
14> If you were in a movie what movie would you be in and what character would you play?
Oh, this is actually a good question - I'd be Indiana Jones from Raiders of the Lost Ark. (not ToD, and not LC, but Raiders)
15> would you rather be stranded on an island with the man of your dreams who just broke up with you for some hot model or your bestfriend - well... ex-bestfriend - who is the model that your dream man broke up with you for?
Um... yes?

Do you have a life motto? :: John 14:6, or the first half of Psalm 46:10
Have you ever been in love? :: Not with anybody earthly. It is my opinion that I won't ever claim to be in love until I can understand what it means, beyond earthly limitations and restrictions. When I have a small comprehension of Divine love, or am 100% sure that what I'm feeling is beyond anything I've felt before, I may claim to be in love. As of yet, I have been very very close, but have yet to reach my goal.
Who was your first non-famous crush? :: I think her name was Winter. This was way back in like... 2nd grade. lol... wow! I think my first real crush, serious one, was 8th grade, over a girl named Eva (Evalisa), who I later learned had a drinking problem and wasn't a very faithful Catholic. I then used the Good Word to end her alcoholism and help her take the first step to being a good Catholic again. We've since not been in contact, we were never very close.
What is your marital status? :: Single
What is the weather like outside right now? :: Too dark to see. I'd imagine it was cold.
Pick up one thing from your desk, what is it? :: A candle, one of 6 that I own, 5 tall and glass with a picture, and 1 symbolic short one, made of terra cotta. They can all be lit in honor of somebody religious. The one I picked up has a picture of Our Lady of Guadalupe on it. I also have ones for: Jesus, the Sacred Heart of Jesus, my Guardian Angel, St. Michael the Archangel, and the small one is symbolic of my commitment to Christ and of my faith journey.
Do you like watching TV? :: Not really
Describe the chair you’re sitting on :: Probably should be replaced, and doesn't support my back too well. It's really small back there.
Have you enjoyed this survey? :: Pretty good.

Wow.
God bless,
Shane
