1. how many people other than you have been in your bedroom today? Beast was just there.
2. how many different houses were you in today? Just mine. One of the disappointments of adulthood is the lack of house-wandering that can be done.
3. how many photo albums do you have? ...thanks for the guilt...probably two dozen, with several still-missing boxes of photos....
4. who paid for the computer you are currently using? We did.
5. who last gave you a ride home? I drove myself home both times today.

6. who was the last person you had a real conversation with? Sparky. Sorta. On the ride home.
7. are your feet touching the floor? No, they're on the recliner.
8. have you ever made a collage? Not for many many years.
9. do you use parentheses or brackets? I use a lot of both.
10. which of your friends has the coolest parents? Uh...hmmm, this is kind of not an issue so much anymore.

11. do your initials spell a word? Sort of. We used to have fun with it in college.
12. do you get rid of your clothes after you stop wearing them or do you keep them in your closet? WTF? Why keep them if they aren't being used?
13. has your basement ever flooded? God forbid! Actually, in our former house, the basement did flood one night while we were out: a pipe burst in the garage--it's a split level--and water seeped in through the stairwell. The babysitter didn't think to check downstairs. Beast was pissed.
14. if you traded in all of your jewelry would you get over one hundred dollars? I'd better!
15. have you been swimming in the past year? I Do. Not. Swim.

16. were you friends with everyone when you were younger, or were you the outcast? That's a sad question...I had friends. There were times when I didn't feel like it, though.
17. does it bother you when people put && before every sentence and ;; after? Don't know anyone who does those things, but yeah, I'd have trouble reading their stuff.
18. who did you eat dinner with last night? My boys.
19. is there any furniture in the corner closest to you? There's built-in cabinets.
20. do you have a certain spot where you do your homework? Right here, when I do work-work at home. Sometimes at the dining room table.

21. do any of your clothes have bleach stains? I don't think so anymore. Beast almost never uses bleach. I'm more profligate with it.
22. are there any kleenex in the room you're in? Of course. Speaking of profligate! We have lots of Kleenex boxes around the house, in almost every single room.
23. do your grandparents always give you lame presents for your birthday? All my grandparents died WAY before I turned ten, and I don't actually remember getting anything from them before that.
24. does your hair excessively fall out? Yes. Twice a year. Drives me nuts and Beast doesn't love it either. Clean-up's a bitch.
25. do you think that tom, from myspace, is planning to become a dictator? Fuck Tom. Fucking annoying jerk.

26. when was the last time it rained? Currently.
27. does it annoy you when people make small talk about the weather? Not this year!!
28. how often do you talk to family on the phone? Not often.
29. do you go to school year round? Every day, baby: School of Hard Knocks.
30. when is the last time you had a stomach ache? Within the last week. It's been a rough couple of months.
