nameless

1. What is the last alcoholic beverage you drank? I had a glass of Pinot Grigio with lunch yesterday.

4. Who was the last person to send you a text message and what was it about? Erg, how I hate this question.....Amy texted me almost 2 years ago. Other than that, I think the only text messages I've EVER received on this phone have been ads from Cingular.

5. Last time you went swimming in a pool? Can't swim, so what I do in pools is cool off when it's very hot. And I did that last summer (July) in Galena.

7. Where was the last place you went shopping? Meijer's on Monday.

8. How do you feel about your hair? I have a very good relationship with my hair.

9. Where do you work? In my cubicle at the library.

23. Do you have a favorite number? I don't really, but I used to be very hung-up on the number 16.

24. Last time you did volunteer work or made any donations? Assuming that church counts, last Sunday night. We need to send a check to the Pre-Eclampsia Foundation in Nathanael's honor, too...mustn't forget....

25. What do you spend the majority of your money on? Like most people, the biggest chunk out of our budget goes to housing. I think the next chunk is probably utilities, and then food.

26. Where does most of your family live? In the U.S. I can't be any more specific than that, as we are all OVER the country!

65. Can you speak any other languages? I'm semi-fluent in Spanish.

66. Last time you went to the gym or worked out? Shut UP. Over a month. All right, enough with the guilt. I'll get back there when my life settles down and I'm not driving to hospitals and so forth....!
