2. Have you ever smoked heroin? i plead the 5th

3. Do you own a gun? nope and never will

4. What flavor do you add to your drink at Starbucks? no starbucks for me, that might change when i live in a city that doesn't have so many indie coffee shops.

6. What do you think of hot dogs? they are meat so i don't eat them

8. What do you prefer to drink in the morning? coffee, always coffee

9. Can you do push ups? yes. how many is a different question...

11. Favorite hobby? maybe writing (but i hope that that won't be a 'hobby' for long). maybe reading, taking photos... it's a mood thing, how can i have a fave?

17. Name 3 things you drink daily: coffee, water, tea (usually iced)

28. What songs do you sing in the shower? don't really sing in the shower unless i can hear music from the other room and then it's whatever's on

32. Favorite sheets? the ones i lost in the storm

33. Worst injury you have ever had? probably the time i got a flat and the guy didn't put the jack on the car correctly. he walked away and i tried to put the tire on and the car fell, i was really badly bruised and cut from shoulder to elbow and it smashed my hand. was pretty bad, had to have x-rays (was just a mild fracture) and a tetanus shot and the bruising didn't go away for weeks. wish i had taken pics. it was grizzly.

34. Do you love where you live? very much, despite the hardships that come with it sometimes.

35. How many TVs do you have in your house? two (but one's really small and only gets turned on occasionally)

37. How many dogs do you have? None.

38. Does someone have a crush on you? for some reason i get asked out a lot at work. it's weird.

39. What are your favorite book(s): oh well, that's just impossible to answer. there are too many good ones! the 'dark is rising' sequence, 'his dark materials', 'lolita', 'invitation to a beheading', 'little, big' (that one's for you, meeg), the nesbit books, 'notes from the underground', 'the plague', 'the stranger', 'nausea'...really, this could go on forever.

40. What is your favorite candy? no idea. totally a mood thing.

41. Favorite Sports Water: i do like some of the vitamin waters. does that count? i don't drink them often but they're ok.

42. What songs do you want sung at your funeral? i am TOTALLY not jinxing myself by answering this... will also never answer the question, 'how do you want to be remembered?'. oh yeah, those are like the kiss of death.

43. What were you doing 12 AM last night? tossing and turning, trying to get to sleep.

44. What was the first thing you thought of when you woke this morning? damn, it's early and there's no way i'm getting back to sleep. ah well, i guess i'll just hop on the computer. i wonder if i'll hear about my visa today...
