100 Things

Found over here. A lot of the questions seem really familiar, but I can't find where I did them online anywhere.
...well close. A few question numbers were missing.

001. What is the best way to get over someone? There's no short cut, just lean on friends for as long as you need to while you get back on your feet.

002. What makeup do you wear on a daily basis? Chapstick.

003. Is your AIM away message on? I don't use AIM. I use Yahoo Messenger at work and my Google-Talk most of the time. It's open right now.

004. If you could eat one meal for the rest of your life, what would it be? It would definitely involve carbs: pasta or bread.

005. What curse word do you use the most? Lately it's been the big F-bomb. More normally, it's "shit."

006. Do you own an ipod? I received an MP3 player for Christmas, but I haven't messed with it at all yet.

007. Who on your Myspace Top 8 do you talk to the most? Sorry, no MySpace account.

008. What time is your alarm clock set for? Sometime around 6:20 a.m., and the second alarm is set for 4 p.m. (it's a Bose, and I just discovered I can set two alarms).

009. Have you ever bid for something on ebay? Nope. Don't have an account. I could easily get fixated on eBay, so I've avoided it like the plague.

010. Do you wear flip-flops even when its cold outside? Well, not outside. I occasionally will scoot through the house in them if I can't find slippers.

011. Where do you buy your groceries from? Mostly Meijer. I stop at the smaller locally-owned grocery store fairly often, and sometimes at some of the other stores.

012. Would you rather take the picture or be in the picture? I'd just like a functional camera at this point!

013. What was the last movie you watched? Caddyshack was on last weekend. And one of the Star Wars movies. I'm hoping we can get out to see a couple of movies this weekend while Sparky's gone.

014. Do any of your friends have children? A lot of our friends have kids. We are old now. :-)

015. If you won the lottery, what's the first thing you would buy? I'd pay off the house, then buy a new car.

016. Has anyone ever called you lazy? Yes, my mom and dad. And myself.

017. Do you ever take medication to help you fall asleep faster? I love me some Tylenol PM or Benedryl.

018. What CD is currently in your CD player? I don't think I have anything in any CD players except the book on CD I'm listening to...in the truck: Child of My Heart by Alice McDermott.

019. Do you prefer regular or chocolate milk? Regular, skim.

020. Has anyone told you a secret this week? I can't keep track anymore. Probably, at work. Or at least, work-related.

021. When was the last time someone hit on you? I have no idea. Probably some weirdo at work. It happens fairly regularly. That sounds really snotty, and I only mean that there are a lot of weirdos in the building at any given time, and those are the ones who will hit on anyone.

022. What did you have for dinner? Sub sandwich.

023. What is your biggest fear? Failure

024. What color is your car? Road-dirt grayish-white, over green (both the car AND the truck).

027. Do you make your own jewelry? No. I have friends to do it for me. :-) Seriously though, I buy most of it.

028. Have you ever participated in a protest? Depends on how you mean 'participate.' I've written letters, but I've never put my body on the line. If I didn't have to be around for Sparky, I would do more, I think.

029. Who was the last person to call you? Beast; he left a message about his flight being delayed.

030. What is your favorite ride at an amusement park? I don't ride much - probably the water rides.

031. What is something you must do everyday? Put on my glasses. Eat. Breathe. Excrete. Pretty similar to the rest of the animal world once you get past the glasses.

082. Do you like your living arrangement? Yes. I wish we weren't in Redneck Heaven in the summer (fireworks season), and I wish we were a little warmer most of the year, but I'm about 85% happy with my living arrangement.

098. What is your mom's name? "Mom"--she shares the name of a character in a very well-known Judy Garland movie, much to her dismay.

099. What is your dad's name? "Dad"--his name is the same as Sandra Bullock's husband's last name.
