Sunday Stealing: The Trivia About Me Meme
Opening…
Do you get regular massages? Not professionally, but my husband has served admirably be I in need of a shoulder or foot massage.
Do you have an answering machine? Dude, voicemail.
What cuss word do you use the most? Kate and I have coined "S!F!D!" as our frustrated playing Mario profanity of choice, but only on those occasions where we are playing without her daughter.
Are you underweight or overweight? If I was underweight, I would know how to fix it.
Can you see your veins? A few. For instance, in the back of my hands. In my arm where they like to take blood, they run deep enough to make me a hard draw. Most of the time, I just have them take it out of my hand. It bruises but it beats them digging for a vein.
Favorite…
Soap? Anything with lots of moisture. I've either been buying Dove or Olay.
Fruit? Clementines.
Kind of red meat? Nice juicy hamburger.
Fish? Tuna, but it's not worth the trouble to eat when you live with cats.
Candy bar? Chocolate. Fun sized Kit Kats, Twix and Hershey with Almonds can almost always be found in my house for snacking.
Have You Ever…
Eaten a whole bag of potato chips? Other than the single serve pouches, no. I'm not a chip person. They are a side dish to me.
Eaten lobster? Both sides of my family are deeply rooted in Maine. Oddly enough, I have never eaten lobster. I didn't grow up in the North East and my mom doesn't like it. As an adult, I figure my general dislike of seafood is enough reason not to order an extravagant menu item.
Climbed a mountain? I've been up the kind of mountains you can drive up.
Been skydiving? No. I'd be more likely to skydive then go mountain climbing.
Been water skiing? Do I look like an extreme sports kind of girl to you? I love being in the water. Going really fast on top of it is something I can do without.
Do You…
Wish you could change something about your life? Broken record... I'd have a college degree by now.
Like your nose? It has served me well.
Like salt and vinegar chips? I can eat a few with a sandwich.
Eat salsa? Rarely. I like the fresh, chunky kind.
Own a boat? The argument could be made for our Suburban being a boat.
What Is…
A small thing that people let slide but that actually has dire consequences? Getting yearly check-ups and recommended tests. It's amazing how many people (especially guys) will run anti virus programs on their computers and upgrade a KVM switch as needed, but don't get bloodwork done to see if their bodies are functioning properly. Don't even get me started on Pap tests and mammograms for the ladies.
Your most macho trait? Ummm... I'm not very macho. Most of the stereotypically male interests I have are more on the nerd/geek end. Science fiction is thought of as a male interest and is decidedly lacking in machismo.
The longest relationship you’ve ever had? Define relationship. I've been best friends with Kate since 1991. My husband and I have been together since August 1999. Yes, that makes me feel old.
Your most embarrassing thoughts? Why would I tell you? The few thoughts I don't blurt out are private.
Your most shameful moment? I'm sure it happened in junior high.
This/That…
Bath/Shower? Shower. Even if I take a bath, I shower afterward.
Markers/Crayons? I love them both. Crayola Crayons, however, have the most emotional impact.
Pens/Pencils? It's always hard for me to choose between office supplies. My handwriting looks better in pen, yet pencil offers clear advantage in some situations.
Jelly/Cream Cheese? Finally, an easy one. Cream Cheese. It's spreadable cheese, for crying out loud. What's not to love?
Bagel/Toast? The toaster is my friend. I love a good bagel. With cream cheese, please.
Finish…
My greatest weakness is… chocolate. You mean besides chocolate? Procrastination.
I wish I was… independently wealthy.
Three things I wouldn’t do for a million dollars are… beyond me right this moment. Please, make an offer. I will surely consider.
The oddest thing I’ve ever put in my mouth is… nothing especially odd.
Firsts…
Credit card you had? I'll let you know if someone issues me one.
Loan you got was for? I had a car loan for a couple thousand.
Paycheck was for how much? Maybe $100 or less. I had more control over where it went back then.
Time you had stitches? I've never had stitches or broken any bones for that matter.
Time you went to the hospital for something? I spent many hours of my young childhood at various hospitals receiving physical therapy.
Lasts…
List everything you ate in the last 24 hours? In reverse order: chocolate chip cookies, Hawaiian Punch, birthday cake and ice cream, spaghetti and meatballs, bagel with cheese and chicken, Diet Coke, Ritz and cheese, tea, Earl Grey, hot.
Last thing you used a credit card for? Used my debit card at Walmart for all those things you buy at Walmart.
What was your job previous to the one you have now? A different call center, working for another phone company in a different department. Same job with some small changes.
Last thing you celebrated? Sabrina's birthday.
Last time you were at a sports bar? I don't know if I've ever been to an honest to goodness sports bar.
