Numeros

Both from Kwizgiver

1. What's your favorite Dr. Seuss book? I still remember the ABC book--Sparky loved that one ("Aunt Annie's Alligator...A A A"). And I like Green Eggs and Ham.

2. If you could live in any home on a television series, what would it be? I liked the houses in Happy Days and The Brady Bunch, but honestly, I have to go with Bewitched.

3. What's the longest you've gone without sleep? 36-40 hours.

4. What's your favorite Web site? Bloglines

5. What's the best bargain you've ever found at a garage sale or thrift store? I don't shop these too much, but I found matching glass apple dishes...actually a whole set to match those my mom had.

6. What's the best costume you've ever worn? A zombie.

7. What's your least favorite word? Sort of a tie between "no" and "ow."

8. Where do you go for advice? Anyone with experience in whatever it is.

9. What did you do for your 13th birthday? I have no earthly idea; that was 31 years ago!

10. What's the most memorable class you've ever taken? Either New Testament with Dr. Lamar Cope, or the class on nuclear war taught in one month by three profs and lots of visiting speakers. Both ends of the spectrum: one wonderful, one terminally depressing.

11. What's your favorite commercial? The Jeep ad with the animals singing make me absolutely cry with laughter.

12. If you could go to Disney World with any celebrity alive today, who would it be? I have no interest in traveling with a celebrity or going to Disney World!

13. What's your favorite breakfast food? Bagel with cream cheese.

14. If you could have a super power, what would it be? Invisibility

15. Name five songs to which you know all the lyrics. (Better yet, sing them.) Amazing Grace, Silent Night, Walkin' on Sunshine (Katrina and the Waves), 500 Miles (The Proclaimers), and I Will Always Love You (Dolly Parton).

...and, start over....

1. Are you afaid of heights? I never, EVER used to be, but I'm no longer as cavalier about them as I used to be.

2. What's your favorite Cyndi Lauper song? Time After Time

3. What's your favorite newspaper? What is this "newspaper" of which you speak?

4. What's your favorite Broadway musical? The Lion King of those done in my lifetime. I love Fiddler on the Roof as well.

5. What's your favorite knock-knock joke? "Knock, knock." "Who's there?" "Banana." "Knock, knock." "Who's there?" "Banana." "Knock, knock." "Who's there?" "Banana." "Knock, knock." "Who's there?" "Orange." "Orange who?" "Orange you glad I didn't say 'banana' again?"

6. Do you prefer baths or showers?Baths. No contest at all.

7. Does your chewing gum lose its flavor on the bedpost overnight? This brings back memories of saving all my gum overnight, though I never had a bedpost. The gum didn't lose its flavor on my desk or nightstand. I wonder when I stopped doing this...that phase lasted a VERY long time!

8. Who's your favarite game show host? Bob Eubanks (The Newlywed Game)

9. Do you like guacamole? I'll eat it, but I don't go out of my way for it.

10. Have you ever been in a food fight? Yes, I'm sure I have. I don't enjoy them, and I don't remember any specifics of anything I was involved in.

11. Have you ever taken a picture in one of those little booths? Nope

12. What's the longest you've ever waited in line? The line to get in to Moscow, at midnight on December 27. There was no one at Passport Control for what seemed like hours (after spending 10-11 hours flying and another 5 hours in airports, and not sleeping well the night before we left and driving through a blizzard on the way to O'Hare...). I was a wreck.
Also, standing in line for Dumbo with Sparky. Twice. In one morning. After no sleep for three nights and a very sore throat and surrounded by lots of other bored kids and their doting parents. (see DisneyWorld, above)

13. What's on the cover of your address book or day planner? Well, they are two different things. My address book is burgundy "leather" (ahem), and my datebook this year has a blue/black cover. Next year, I splurged for a nice portfolio to hold my datebook.
