Saturday Six

1. You are awakened from a deep sleep by a bump in the night. You then hear nothing else at all. Are you more likely to go investigate or just roll over and go back to bed?

I'm a roller-overer. Besides, with my earplugs, I'm unlikely to hear nuclear war erupting, much less a bump.

2. If you had to encounter an alien, would you rather encounter it here, or wake up and realize it has taken you to its home world?

Oh, I think here. I understand day-to-day life and I wouldn't mind being a 'tour guide' for awhile.

3. Your neighborhood is rocked by something that sounds like a plane crash about a mile away. You have strange things begin happening and people begin to become convinced that an alien has crash-landed: how would you respond: would you be the more reasonable one, the organizing one, or one of the scared ones?

There is a (small) airport a mile from my house, so this wouldn't really be all that shocking. There has been a small-plane crash since we moved here 6 years ago. I'd be reasonable if there was any talk of an alien, but honestly in this neighborhood I'd probably be one of the last to find out.

4. Have you ever had the exact same recurring nightmare for more than two nights in a row? If so, describe as much as you’re willing to share, and whether any of it "came true."

Yes. It was about work, and completely stress-based. I had it off and on for months...years.

5. Take the quiz: Which Twilight Zone Episode Do You Belong In?

You belong in my [the meme creator's] very favorite Twlight Zone, called Jess-Belle. In it, a girl named Jess-Belle is heartbroken that the boy she loves loves someone else. So she goes to the local witch, who has her drink a potion, which makes him fall head over heels in love with her. The catch is, by drinking the potion, she becomes a witch, too.

Oh, YUCK!

6. You find yourself trapped in an old Western town and you meet the person who you think could be the love of your life. You then meet someone else who feels the same way about the same person and challenges you to a duel at noon in the town square. Your true love won’t leave the town he or she grew up in until the duel is over. As the time approaches, you meet a strange traveling medicine man who says he’s got three options for you: you can buy a potion to guarantee you’ll be a crack shot in the duel, a potion to make your true love forget about her loyalty to town and family completely, or a potion to make yourself forget about this new-found love: which one would you choose?

The last one. I don't trust this sort of set-up and the faster I'm out of there, the better.
