1. How old is your microwave oven?

It came with the house, and we moved in just about 10 years ago; the move-in anniversary is this October. Still works fine. My only complaint is that, because it's an over-the-stove model, the light under it gets too hot--it has actually melted the plastic containers in the cupboard next to it!

2. How many television sets do you own?

I think we have two in the house at this point. Sparky has one for his dorm room.

3. What type of cell phone do you own?

It's a Samsung. I got it last fall. LOVE it!

4. How much else besides making calls do you use your cell phone for?

I rarely use it as a phone. I text, IM, play games, look stuff up online, keep lists, track on my calendar, use the alarm function, take pictures, watch for weather updates, figure out where I am/where I'm going.... Seriously, if I could marry a machine, I'd have to think hard about why NOT marry this thing.

5. Do you still have a landline in your home?

Yup. That's the number I use for all the telemarketers. You don't get my cell # unless I know you personally. In fact, it's only in the last few months that I've given it out to my doctors.

6. Do you have a single-serve coffee maker like a Keurig, or is yours a more traditional multi-cup model?

I have a coffee-maker I got a couple of years ago and the percolator we got as a wedding gift 27 years ago. I think I might still have a two-cup too? I don't drink coffee and Beast and Sparky rarely do, so they are all only used when we have company. Honestly, I wouldn't even have to own one except the geographically-nearest family member to us is a coffee snob and I got sick of hearing her bitch whenever she visited. Someday I'll have the nerve to just tell her to shove it, but...the timing hasn't been right yet.
