1. Which holiday are you most likely to spend outdoors?

Whichever one is spent at Katherine and Alan's house since they have a shitload of cats. Outside allergies are preferable to cats. Otherwise, Fourth of July and Labor Day are the go-tos for being outside.

2. What's your favorite cookout food?

Homemade potato salad.

3. Which cookout food could you do without? Watermelon. But really, cookouts are so not about the food for me; they're about the people.
4. Which holidays do you think are appropriate to celebrate with fireworks?

Since I've been hearing nonstop fireworks outside my house now for the last half hour, some from about 50 yards away, some from the streets outside our immediate subdivision. I frickin' hate this time of year, and it used to be one of my favorites...before we moved here. It's the major downside of living here.

5. Which holidays do you wish weren't celebrated with fireworks?

All of them! But we get fireworks for everything: sports wins, Thanksgiving, snow days, New Year's Eve/Day, Arbor Day, graduation, weddings, Presidents' Days, record high temperatures, record low temperatures, hunting season...about the only uncelebrated thing is MLK, Jr. Day.
I . Hate . It .

6. Which holiday is the last one for which you threw a party yourself?

Thanksgiving? Does that count?
