I Wonder What She's Doing Tonight

1. Have you ever lost a lover and spent way too much time wondering what they were doing?

Well, yeah. Duh. If you don't do that, perhaps there wasn't really much going on anyway, eh?

2. What was your favorite vacation ever?

Wow, there've been so many good vacations! I miss being able to spend the day wandering around the mountains in Ouray. Really, especially since our trip last summer proved to me that I'm not 14 anymore.

3. Do you like surprises? If yes, what kinds? Or are you one of those people who absolutely has to know what's going on before it happens?

I'm not a huge fan of surprises, but a surprise party that's not mean-spirited can be a lot of fun.

4. Have you ever written a poem? Feel free to share one. Or even a dirty limerick is OK.

I have, but not for eons, and I don't have any of those old ones handy, so you'll have to go without, I'm afraid.

5. Did anything interesting show up in your mail lately besides the bills?

I got a free rental from Redbox in my email this week...because someone who uses Redbox a lot keeps using my email addy when they rent things.

6. How many of your friendships have lasted more than ten years? Which of your current friends do you feel will still be important to you ten years from now? Family members don't count.

I have friends that I've known for over 40 years. My oldest friend just found me on Facebook about a month ago--we met when I was 6. I have grade school friends, some junior high school friends, and several high school friends, not to mention college friends. Yeah.

7. Do you own a pet? If so, do you buy them presents for holidays? Do you consider your pet(s) spoiled? If you don't own one, do you think you will one day?

I always used to get the dog a chewbone and wrap it up for Christmas. It was fun to watch her tear it apart to get to the bone. Of course, our current guinea pig is hugely spoiled.

8. It's Friday afternoon and you're planning your weekend. What's on your agenda on a hot August night?

Well, this weekend, I could head to the county fair in the town where I work, or I could head to the state fair about 90 minutes from here. Barring that, I'd probably just find a good place to read a book...and do so.

9. What's your worst nervous habit?

Biting my nails. Talking and giggling to fill 'dead air.' Eating.
