"Don't You Have To Go Be Stupid Someplace Else?"


That's probably one of my most favorite Spongebob quotes, by the way.

Speaking of the little yellow freak... gads. I feel like Spongebob did, when he had a case of the suds. Translation: Saturn has a recurring sinus infection. Head is like cinderblock. Yesterday, I was leaking fluid from my nose like a car leaks oil from a cracked head gasket. That would be "profusely" for those of you playing along at home.

So, as such, we're going to do a goofy survey! Hurray! Commence goofiness!

1. What bill do you hate paying the most?

Blech. I'm still paying back one of my student loans, for when I got my teaching credential. That I'm not currently using. So, it feels like I'm paying money for nothing.

2. What's the best place to eat a romantic dinner?

I don't have a lot of experience, here. And I choose to translate that as romance isn't a place, but a connection and company. Cheeseball, eh?

3. Last time you puked from drinking?

Erf. Definitely college. I think I've only done this twice in my life, and more because I was having such a good time talking to friends that I just lost track of whether I'd had 2 beers or 4. One time I got sick, I remember a concoction of vodka and Gatorade was involved. Yeah, I know, that'd make anyone sick.

4. When is the last time you got drunk and danced on a bar?

No on-the-bar dancing for me. My luck, I'd probably fall and break my leg.

5. Name of your preschool teacher?

Didn't attend preschool.

6. What do you really want to be doing right now?

Sleeping. It's after 11p. I'm congested. Yet, somehow, I'm writing this instead. I think I've gone goofy.

7. What did you want to be when you grew up?

I'm supposed to know? Who says?

8. How many colleges did you attend?

Two. One for my undergraduate and a different one for my teaching credential. I've also taken a handful of classes at the local junior college.

9. Why did you wear the shirt that you have on right now?

It's my pajama shirt. It's 11p, on a Wednesday. That equals pajamas, in my world.

10. GAS PRICES! First thought?

Somewhere, somebody who isn't me is getting horribly, disgustingly rich.

11. If you could move anywhere and take someone with you, where and who?

Kidlet, of course. And, somewhere peaceful. Interpret that as you like.

12. First thought when the alarm went off this morning?

"It's too freaking early for this horse shit."

13. Last thought before going to sleep last night?

I was planning out the plot for my NaNoWriMo novel.

14. Favorite style of underwear?

The comfortable, non-holey, non-crawl-up-your-butt kind.

15. Favorite style of underwear for the opposite sex?

Clean.

16. What errand/chore do you despise?

Dusting. What an exercise in futility, and with all the crap I have, if I'm going to do a good job, it takes bloody forever.

17. If you didn't have to work, would you volunteer at an art gallery?

Uh. That's kind of random. I might volunteer at an art gallery, though there are other things I'd probably do with my time first, like spend more time with Kidlet and my family, or write more books.

18. Get up early or sleep in?

Sleep in.

19. Who is your favorite cartoon character?

Optimus Prime

20. Favorite NON sexual thing to do at night with a girl/guy?

Uh. Also rather random. Hm. How about watch a movie while sharing some yummy snacks? Sounds like a plan, whether it's just me or a whole horde of people.

21. A secret that you wouldn't mind everyone knowing?

All the secrets I don't mind people knowing, are already known.

22. How many joints pop when you get out of bed in the morning?

Usually my muscles are too tight to allow the bones to move much.

23. What is the biggest amount of $$ you have made from a yard sale?

Maybe $100? I've only been involved in a few yard/garage sales in my life. I definitely prefer to be on the purchasing end, in this equation.

24. Your favorite lunch meat?

Depends on my mood. Probably ham.

25. What do you get every time you go into a WAWA?

WTF? Oh, okay -- Googling this term indicates that it's a chain of stores on the east coast. I've never lived on the east coast. Therefore, I stick to my original reaction... WTF?

26. Beach or lake?

Er. Lakes have beaches. This is common knowledge, right? Right? *tap tap* Is this thing on?

27. Do you think marriage is an outdated ritual that was invented by men to control women?

Wow. This is an awfully intense and political question for a meme that asks about lunch meat, don't you think? For the record, no.

28. Who do you stalk on MySpace?

No one. MySpace is the new AOHell.

29. Favorite guilty pleasure?

Trashy romance novels. I'd say chocolate, but that's not a guilty pleasure. It's the 5th food group. My college nutrition professor said so. Nyah.

30. Favorite movie you wouldn't want anyone to find out about?

Oh, I have an entire tome's worth of movie titles that would be considered ridiculous or trash by most people, but that I just adore. "Casual Sex" is a good example of this.

31. What's your drink?

Depends on time of day and what I'm in the mood for. It can vary from ice water to Diet Coke to a venti non-fat no whip mocha. With an espresso brownie, please.

32. Cowboys or Indians?

Cowboys. I'm a football fan, not a baseball fan.

33. Cops or Robbers?

*cough* I'm going to ignore the absurdity of some of these questions and answer them anyway. Cops. Because I don't like people who steal. And you shouldn't, either.

34. Do you cheer for the bad guy?

Sometimes, though that usually means that he's not really bad, just misunderstood.

35. What Hollywood star do you think resembles you best?

Morris the cat

37. What do you want when you are sick?

Lots of tissue, water, tea, lip balm, and ibuprofen. And good looking men bringing me magazines, ice cream and cough drops on silver platters.

38. Who from high school would you like to run into?

Run into? With my car? Pretty much all of them.

39. What radio station is your car radio tuned to right now?

The local top 40 station. Not that it matters, since my work commute is approximately 6 minutes long, and if I'm driving into town I put in a tape.

42. Norm or Cliff?

Norm. Cliff's annoying.

43. The Cosby Show or The Simpsons?

The Simpsons. Cosby's annoying.

44. Worst relationship mistake that you wish you could take back?

No mistakes. Because I? Am absolutely perfect.

45. Do you like the person who sits directly across from you at work?

Well, I don't really sit at work, and since my work station rotates through the lab, and so does everyone else's, I could be across the bench from pretty much any or all of my coworkers. But, generally, I like them all, so yes.

46. If you could get away with it, who would you kill?

Ooh. The list for this would be so long, I'd need to wind it on one of those giant wooden cable spools.

47. What famous person would you like to have dinner with?

Any of the 5 Barenaked Ladies. Or all 5 of them. Then, I could just die of happiness.

49. Have you ever had to use a fire extinguisher for its intended purpose?

Yes, because lab + flammables + dumbass coworkers = fire extinguisher.

50. Last book you read?

I'm reading an assortment of short stories about kick-ass women.

51. Do you have a teddy bear?

Have? Yes.

52. Strangest place you have ever brushed your teeth?

Uh. Camping in Yosemite, I guess.

53. Somewhere in California you've never been and would like to go?

I'd like to better explore the upper northern part.

54. Number of texts in a day?

Zero.

56. Do you go to church?

No.

57. Pencil or pen?

Depends. Do I need to erase anything?

58. Bueller??? Bueller??? Bueller???

We need a Ben Stein impersonation at this juncture of the meme why, exactly?

59. How many jobs have you had?

A bunch. Probably in the neighborhood of 2 dozen. That includes babysitting when I was 11.

Okay! That was... surreal. It's definitely time for bed.
