Stevie Wonder

1. I JUST CALLED TO SAY I LOVE YOU "I just called to say I love you. I just called to say how much I care. I just called to say I love you, and I mean it from the bottom of my heart"
What did your last conversation revolve around on the phone?

Church bidness. Still looking for a few Deacons for next year. Anyone interested? You need to be a member of my church, though.

2. SUPERSTITION "When you believe in things That you don't understand, Then you suffer, Superstition aint the way"
Do you have a crazy habit or superstition you must perform in certain situations, such as throwing salt over your should when you spill it?

I tend to have a little shiver of "uh-oh" when someone says, "Hey, that [bad thing] hasn't happened in awhile" because it seems to inevitably happen soon thereafter. Ick.

3. SIR DUKE "Music knows it is and always will Be one of the things that life just won't quit But here are some of music's pioneers That time will not allow us to forget"
If you had to pick a music milestone event or invention, what would it be?

I don't think I understand this question, but I think I would have liked to attend the first performance of Stravinsky's Rite of Spring. In the loge, preferably.

4. YOU ARE THE SUNSHINE OF MY LIFE "You are the sunshine of my life, yeah, That's why I'll always stay around, You are the apple of my eye, Forever you'll stay in my heart"
What besides your significant other brings sunshine to your life?

My son. (hah) And also, quite literally, sun. I'm a trainwreck without it.

5. LIVING FOR THE CITY "Her brother's smart he's got more sense than many, His patience's long but soon he won't have any, To find a job is like a haystack needle, Cause where he lives they don't use colored people"
Have you ever been denied a job or treated differently at a job for an unusual reason?

Nope. However, when I temped (in college) I was frequently not allowed to actually DO anything at jobs for fear of messing things up. So I got paid $5/hour to sit and write letters to my friends.

6. THAT GIRL "That girl thinks that she's so smart, That soon she'll have my heart. She thinks in no time flat, That she'll be free and clear to start"
Ever been pursued by someone who wanted you but you didn’t want them?

Yeah. Hi, Jerry.

7. I WISH "I wish those days could come back once more, Why did those days ev-er have to go I wish those days could come back once more, Why did those days ev-er have to go Cause I love them so”
What era of your life do you miss the most?

College. ...sigh...

8. HIGHER GROUND "Powers keep on lyin', While your people keep on dyin', World keep on turnin' Cause it won't be too long"
Do you believe global warming will continue to worsen?

Ayup. Interesting take on this quote....

9. PART TIME LOVER "We are undercover passion on the run. Chasing love up against the sun, We are strangers by day, lovers by night. Knowing it's so wrong, but feeling so right."
Have you ever dated someone you shouldn’t have because they were married or "taken"?

That would be a negatory, ma'am.

10. SIGNED SEALED DELIVERED :Then that time I went and said goodbye, Now I'm back and not ashamed to cry. Oo, baby, here I am, signed, sealed, delivered, I'm yours!"
Ever try it again with an old flame? What happened?

Nope. Haven't really had the opportunity, to be honest. Unless you count the fact that Beast and I stopped dating for a year in college and then got back together.

11. MY CHERIE AMOUR "Maybe someday, you'll see my face among the crowd. Maybe someday, I'll share your little distant cloud. Oh, cherie amour, pretty little one that I adore, You're the only girl my heart beats for, How I wish that you were mine"
Who was your very first crush? Did they return the emotion?

Some little boy named Chris and I were going to grow up and get married. We were 5. Maybe 6.

12. GOLDEN LADY "Golden lady, golden lady I'd like to go there. Take me right away."
Ever get a tanning salon/ fake tan? Do you still worship the sun?

No, and not. I turn red, not 'golden.'

13. ALL IN LOVE IS FAIR "I tossed my coin to say In love with me you'd stay. But all in war is so cold You either win or lose. When all is put away, The losing side I'll play. But all is fair in love…"
What is the worst aspect of breaking up/divorce?

Having to create new habits.
