Strange Questions
Sunday Stealing: The Strange Question Meme, Part 1
1. What is the color of your toothbrush? White with red.
2. Name one person who made you smile today. My niece, Sabrina.
3. What were you doing at 8 am this morning? Sleeping.
4. What were you doing 45 minutes ago? Same thing I'm doing now - trying to blog and catch up on blog reading. Nothing like opposing goals on a Sunday afternoon.
5. What is your favorite candy bar? It's like trying to pick my favorite puppy - can't be done. Twix despite my usual dislike of caramel. KitKat always hits the spot. Hershey with Almond.
6. Have you ever been to a strip club? Not interested.
7. What is the last thing you said aloud? "I don't know if they are planning on it at all"
8. What is your favorite ice cream? How to choose? If I had to pick World Class Chocolate from Baskin-Robbins. It has a mousse-like texture and rich taste. Of course, when I get to go to Baskin-Robbins, I spend as much time picking a flavor as I would reviewing term life insurance quotes to reach the obvious conclusion.
9. What was the last thing you had to drink? Currently working on a Powerade from McDonald's fountain.
10. Do you like your wallet? I haven't decided. I've changed to a smaller wallet from the checkbook size. I like that it's smaller but it is a hassle for bigger items. Not sure if I'm going to stay with the little one or go back to a big one.
11. What was the last thing you ate? Rather unsatisfying McDonald's cheeseburger and too-salty fries.
12. Have you bought any new clothing items this week? Shoes. Three pairs. Don't think I broke the bank. It was Payless and I had a 20% off coupon. Two pair of clearance flats - one pink, one silver - and a much needed pair of sneakers.
13. The last sporting event you watched? It's Sunday during the football season. There is a game on at my house, but we could debate the term "watch", couldn't we?
14. What is your favorite flavor of popcorn? Butter. Is this a question for some people?
15. Who is the last person you sent a text message to? I've never sent a text message as I am one of the last people on earth without a cell phone. The one exception is in my job where the billing system allows me to text information or confirmations to customer cell phones as an automated message. I'm assuming that doesn't count.
16. Ever go camping? Once. I tagged along with my friend Kate's Girl Scout troop. Her mom had already bought the supplies for eight or so girl. When only three could go, I was invited. As fate would have it, my next camping trip will be in a couple years when Kate's daughter starts Girl Scouts. God help me.
17. Do you take vitamins daily? Daily? Does that mean intend to take everyday, but take from time to time? Hey, it's still better than never taking vitamins.
18. Do you go to church every Sunday? It's been years since I went to church and much longer since I went every Sunday.
19. Do you have a tan? Did you know it was fashionable to be pale until Coco Chanel popularized the tan in the 1920s? I forgive her, but choose to go old school and be pale as nature intended for me.
20. Do you prefer Chinese food over pizza? It depends. I prefer great pizza over mediocre Chinese food and great Chinese food over mediocre pizza. Both are tough to find in the rural Midwest.
21. Do you drink your soda with a straw? Only fountain soda. Otherwise, I drink out of bottles or cans with no straw.
22. What did your last text message say? As I've explained, I don't have a cell phone. Despite making my living helping people with every perceived cell phone crisis, I do not believe them to be a requirement of basic survival. But I don't judge, because my home internet connection is very, very important.
23. What are you doing tomorrow? For sure? Calling my mom. Otherwise, it's my day off so we'll see.
24. Favorite color? Growing up I never had a true favorite color. Some people are so passionate about their favorite color. My mother loves green. My brother loves purple. My love of color is tied to my Crayloa Crayons. Each lovely and useful. None is more important than the next, because coloring the sky orange or the grass blue isn't an option. These days, I claim red as my favorite color. It is, in fact, my favorite color to wear.
25. Look to your left; what do you see? Chris on the other end of the sofa watching a football game on our sad, small television.
