The Seriously Random Question Meme, Part 3

41. Who was the last person you went shopping with?
Hum hum hmmm... Sadly, it has been so long that I don't remember.  I guess, it was just me, myself, and I.

42. What is something you need to go shopping for?
I went to the store today to get the only things I could think of that I needed.  I guess, this week, I'll probably go shopping for medication, but that hardly seems like mentioning.

43. Do you have the same first name as one of your relatives?
No.

44. What kind of car do (did) your parents drive?
We drive a bus or a cab. 

45. Are you rich?
Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha!

46. If you could spend one intimate night with a celebrity, no questions asked, never to see them again, who would it be?
Gee, *that is* a hard question...  :: think, think, think ::  Oh yeeeeah!  Andrew Eldritch, thank you.

 

48. What famous person do you look like? Feel free to use this facial match program by clicking here. Show us at least the celeb photo.
According to the site, I have a 58.89% similarity with Daryl Hannah.  I'm not sure I like that.  : /

49. What is the most daring thing you've done recently?
I haven't really don much that is daring recently.  Oh, other than looking in on the crabby dog next door that bit me earlier.

50. Say you were given a pregnancy test right now. Would you pass or fail?

Well, since I have neither a uterus or ovaries, if it came back positive, I would have to wonder what alien was using me as a host and why it would set off a pregnancy test.

51. Which sex scandal of the last decade bothers you the most?
They all bother me.  I don't need to know every person all of the celebrity

52. Do you know anyone in jail/prison?
Yes, I do, sadly.  A friend of mine killed another friend of mine. 

53. What are your plans (or what have you done) for this weekend?
Well, this is Sunday night/ Monday morning.  This weekend, I went to see "Cowboys & Aliens" and went to the cheap buffet.  It was pretty cool.

54. Have you ever woken up and not know where you were?
Yes, that used to happen to me a lot. 

55. What were you doing at midnight last night??
Watching "Bleach" and wondering why we were still in Hueco Mundo

56. Last restaurant you went to?
Golden Carroll

57. How many hours did you sleep for last night?
I actually got eight hours, which was rare for me.


58. Which is more distracting: Sexting while driving or sex while driving?
They are both retarded ideas, but I'm guessing sex would be more distracting.  I am saying "guess", because I have never done that and never would.

59. Do you think someone is thinking about you right now?
Besides those in the room?  I don't know, but if they are, it's at most a 50/50 chance that it's good thoughts.

60. Have you ever changed your clothes while in a vehicle?
Yes, we used to go swim in the river when we were young; and there was nowhere to change but in the car.  Everyone else did the same thing.

60 1/2. If you haven't "liked" us (WTIT) on facebook and would like to, click here. Thanks, friends!
Shameless self promotion!  No thank you.  I'm already following you here, and I hate redundant  messages.

The Seriously Random Question Meme, Part 2

21. Have you ever had a garage sale?
Yes, but I'm not good at it.  I feel like people should pay what I put on the sticker.  When people want to haggle with me, I want to pelt them with acorns until they get off my lawn.  (We no longer have acorns or a lawn, so I'm safe.).

22. What color is your cell phone?
Black.

23. What is the last alcoholic beverage you had?
It has been long enough that I have no clue, but I think it was a glass of champagne for New Year's Eve.

24. Are you happy right now?
Actually, I am.

25. Who came over to your house last?
Me! Ha!

26. Do you drink beer?
No, even when I drank alcohol, I wasn't a beer drinker.  I can only remember having one beer that wasn't one of those where I take a sip and give it to anyone else.  It was a Heineken.  The only reason I got it was that there was only beer on the open bar.

27. Have your brothers or sisters ever told you that you were adopted?
No, I look like a clone of my mother, so it would be difficult to sell.  Now, if they had told me I was a clone ...

28. What is your favorite key on your key chain?
I ... don't ... what?  None of my keys actually go to anything anymore.  The only reason I carry the chain is for the 473 store discount cards I have.

29. What was the last movie you watched at home?
I'm not sure, but it would have been on TCM.  Anytime someone is not specifically watching something, it is set to TCM.  The last one I chose was quite a bit ago when I watched, "Batman: Under the Red Hood."

30. What is in your pocket?
The only things I ever carry in my pockets are my phone, my bus ID for disabled fare, and tissues.

31. Who introduced you to your bf/gf/husband/wife?
A mutual friend.  If I still were on speaking terms with the friend, I would not have good things to say to him.

32. Where do you hurt?
This is not a good question for me.  Let's just go with, "my body".

33. Has someone ever made you a build a bear?
Yes, I used to always complain that no one but my mother had ever given me anything for Valentine's Day -- even when I was dating someone.  A friend of mine went out and bought me a knight bear with a rose from B-a-B.  I love that bear.

34. What’s something fun you did today?

I went to see "Cowboys & Aliens" and went to the cheap buffet.

35. What is your favorite aisle at Target?
I don't usually go to Target.  The only reason I choose to go there is to go to the candy aisle for Halloween.  They have all kinds of goodies and doodads.

36. When is your birthday?
December.

37. Is there anything hanging from your rear view mirror?
I tried to hang some fuzzy dice, a couple strands of beads, and a picture of Andrew Eldritch; but the bus driver kept getting mad.

38. How many states in the US have you been to?
Uuuummmm....  Not counting the states I have flown over, I think, eighteen.

39. What kind of milk do you drink?
Almond, but I don't even drink that.  I tolerate it.  I am not a fan of milk.

40. What are you going to do after this?
Uh...  I have no idea.   Take a drink of my soda?  Wait ... I've already done that.  : /

The Fifteen Movie Questions Memea

1. Movie you love with a passion.
"Howl's Moving Castle"  I still laugh and get all starry eyed when I see it. 

2. Movie you vow to never watch.
"Marley & Me".  I have lost enough pets, I don't need to lose a fictional one.  Whatever happened to movies about dogs that didn't end in them dying? 

3. Movie that literally left you speechless.
"Dark Water" but it wasn't a good thing.  I liked that book so much ...

4. Movie you always recommend.
Hmmm... probably "The Others"

5. Actor/actress you always watch, no matter how crappy the movie.
There is no one that I *always watch", but the closest I come to that is watching Cillian Murphy. 

6. Actor/actress you don’t get the appeal for.
Brad Pitt.  He always had sleazy, greasy feeling to me.

7. Actor/actress, living or dead, you’d love to meet.
Alan Rickman.  He's very talented, smart, and cultured.  I think, that could be a good time.

8. Sexiest actor/actress you’ve seen. (Picture required!)
Cilliam Murphy.  I guess, that really shows my type, 


9. Dream cast.
Cillian Murphy, Billy Zane (with hair!), Michael Biehn, Jason Isaacs, and some actress....

10. Favorite actor pairing.
Michael Biehn and Sigourney Weaver

11. Favorite movie setting.
A lot of my favorties are filmed either in the UK or in New Zealand. 

12. Favorite decade for movies.
The 1980s, though the 1990s were great too.  Then, they started remaking the movies that I loved from the 80s...

13. Chick flick or action movie?
Action.  I really don't care for most chick flicks.  They're repetitive and are completely centered around a relationship that (in almost all cases), you know is going to succeed, as if it is a "will they or won't they?" way.  Don't insult my intelligence.

14. Hero, villain or anti-hero?
I'm a sucker for a good anti-hero.

15. Black and white or color?
 Black and white can be great, but I prefer color (though I do not my favorite black and whites remade to be color).

I stole this from Katharine, who stole it from http://sundaystealing.blogspot.com

1. Your ex's car is on the side of the road, on fire. What do you do?
I stop to help, because I'm always one of those people that stops to help, even when the other person is a jerk. I definitely wouldn't like it though.

2. Your best friend tells you she is pregnant. What is your reaction?
I ponder the concept. How can Bella be pregnant, when she's been spayed?

3. When is the last time you wanted to punch someone in the face?
Wow, I don't think I should probably say that. The person does have internet access and my name. Let's avoid extra drama if we can.

4. What is the last thing you spent money on?
The bus trip to get home from the doctor. If you mean for an object, it was a bottle of Gatorade and a box of food for Bella.

5. Do you think you gained or lost weight this past month?
I have no idea, because I've been worry about just about everything else. I would guess that I lost weight though, because I keep having to hike up my shorts.

6. Crunchy or Puffy Cheetos?
I'm not a big fan of either, though I do like the puffy stuff in Pirate Booty.

7. The first person on your friends list just called you a bitch. What do you do?
The first person on my list here would be Katharine. If she called me that, I'd be very hurt and confused, unless I brought it on myself.

8. Congratulations! You just had a son. What’s his name?
Hmmm.... Again, I'd ponder the whole hysterectomy issue, but then, I would probably go with Atticus.

9. Congratulations! You just had a daughter. What’s her name?
I already have a daughter named Isabella, so I'd name my next one Marianne. 

10. What are you craving right now?
I don't know, money to get a good bed and a decent roof over my head?  Other than that, probably tacos.  


11. What was the last thing you cried about?
Realizing that this confusion thing going on had caused me to get on the wrong bus that went in the complete opposite side of town from where I needed and thinking I wouldn't have time to get back in time to get my prescription.  It kind of worked out in the end.  This is getting depressing. 

12. When you buy something and your change is 2 cents, do you keep it or tell the cashier to keep it?
I just take my change.  I never really knew you were supposed to do otherwise. 

13. What color is your tissue box?
I don't have one.  :(  I only have those cheap ones that come in the clear paper packets.


14. Do you have a ceiling fan in your bedroom, and if so, is there dust on that fan?
No, and I don't have any dust on my ceiling either. 

15. What was the last voicemail you received about?
:: sigh ::  It was a reminder to get my blood work done. 


16. Have you ever blocked someone on Facebook?
No, but I did delete someone once, after he started throwing a little Facebook fit at me, when I had only known him for about 24 hours.  I have heard a bit of kvetching about it, but I stand by my decision.  Contrary to popular belief, I wasn't bad when I did it.  I just had this feeling like, I either had to delete him or throw some cold water on him to get him to calm down. 

17. Scariest thing you’ve experienced in the last year?
Everything that I had in my life falling apart?  I told you, this is just depressing. 

18. Do you wear a name tag at work?
When I was working, I only had to wear a name tag at two jobs -- as an optech and as a portrait photographer (which works really well when little kids yanked on it unexpectedly.  Sure, we aren't allowed to wear heels, because the kids might dive under our feet and get hurt, but we can give them a colored thing with a pin on it to grab. 


19. What kind of car do you want?
The kind with a comfortable passenger seat and a driver.  Yes, I definitely need a driver.


20. What do you order when you go to Burger King?
I am not a big fan of Burger King.  Their fries are Ok, and they have decent milkshakes.  Every once in a while, when I need to get food and am near one, I get a Jr. Cheese Burger.  That's about it.

Sadly, "Which medication is it time for?"

Within range of me, Chick-fil-a.  Anywhere, Bo Jangles.

The floor.  I put the box spring on the floor, because it is getting rickety, and I was afraid that Bella would crawl under it and it falling on her. 

11. Finish this statement. “If I had lot of money I’d….?
If I had a lot of money, I would do a lot of things; including getting my teeth fixed, buying a home for my family, taking Bella to classes for advanced training (the kind where they get to learn cool tricks), hiring a driver, touring Europe, and going to Japan.  It may seem like a lot, but it is a lot of money...

12. Do you sleep with a stuffed animal?

Women's gymnastics. 

20. Would you like to be born as yourself again?
Listen closely, "I would rather rip my heart right out of my rib cage with my bare hands and then throw it on the floor and stomp on it, 'til I die."  And if you try to make me, that's just what I will do.

I stole this from Sunday Stealing:  http://sundaystealing.blogspot.com/

My not feeling well is your getting a pointless survey.

1. If the moon were to be mistaken for a celebrity, who would it be?

Morey Amsterdam!  Yeah, I have no idea, but it would be cool if it did look like him.

2. What's a ghost to you?

I do believe in ghosts, and I think, they are two types.  First, I think, there are some cases where a soul is trapped on Earth (for what is likely a myriad of reasons), sometimes being in contact with the living world, sometimes not.  

Second, is what I believe to be the more common type -- psychic impressions.  These are the type that don't interact with the living world but just exist.  This includes ghosts who speak to people, touch them, move objects, etc.  It is caused when something occurs that causes a deep emotional reaction in the people in the area (e.g. a war, murder, etc.) or is so repetitive that it wears a track in the area (like a groove on a record.  This includes hearing the movement of an elderly lady who lived in a house for sixty years or listening to the boot falls circle your house, from the soldier that spent years walking the same patrol in the area.

3. If you had to do anything with your sworn enemy, what would it be?

I don't have a sworn enemy.  :(  I wish I had one.   If I could do anything, I'd have a big, city destroying slug fight with mutual super powers.  I call the ability to pull out my bones as weapons and flicking explosive blood!  They can be like Aquaman...

4. Oh no, Marge Simpson got kidnapped by aliens! What do you say to the aliens to get her back?

Can you really imagine listening to that voice for years?  If you're Ok with it, ask her to sing for you, and then get back to me. 

5. Have you ever had lunch together with your neighbor?

No, I've actually never done anything with my neighbors.  Before our health and neighborhood went to pot, I used to like to hang out in the back yard with the dogs; and I'd talk a lot to my neighbors.  I miss that.  The only thing even close to that is looking in on the neighbor's dog when they're out of town.


6. If you had to pick your own personal theme song, what would it be?

 It's a decent day, so I'll go with, "I'm Alive" by Becca. 

7. Describe what's sexy to you.

Andrew Eldritch.  Next!

Ha, no, really,  I am not big on guy's appearance; but decent style and taking care of himself (liking bathing, styling his hair, etc.) does win brownie points.  What do I find sexy?  Intelligence, kindness, caring, wit, a good sense of humor (but knows what is inappropriate to joke about), and things like that.  I love those modern knights in shining armor that want to sweep in and take care of you but are just as happy watching you seeing you take care of yourself.  Ah, why can't I find that guy...or Andrew Eldritch...

8. A vampire suddenly knows all your secrets. What do you do?

Make him my best friend.   If he knows all of that and hasn't killed me yet, he's the best friend I'll ever have. 


9. If had to have a role in a movie, what kind of character would you prefer to play?

I want to be that vigilante that is originally the villain but eventually shows the heroes that his way, though extreme, is what they really need.  


10. You have to read a coworker's (or friends) very personal diary. You pick the person. Who is it and why?

I don't know... I don't really think I would want to read anyone's diary.  I am afraid that I would find out something about them that would make me no longer want to be around them.  


I picked this up from Sunday Stealing:  http://sundaystealing.blogspot.com/
