Horrifying!!

That is a lot of memes over the past 9 1/2 years!

And back to(wards) the beginning I go for this one. My original answers are in italics:

Librarian stereotypes meme

1. Own a cat(s)? Nope. Not at all interested in owning a cat because.... Nope. Allergic. More of a doggy person anyway.

2. Drive small sensible, economical car? Hellz no! I drive--as a coworker said when he first saw it--a tank, a.k.a. a Ford Edge. It gets decent mileage though, about the same as... Nope. Truck. (but it is small...)

3. Wear comfortable, sensible shoes? Comfortable, yes. Sensible, not always. And I buy a lot of shoes Some days. Today I'm wearing new shoes so they pinch a bit. I love shoes. There was a point--young-marrieds, no cash--when I was not even allowed to be near a shoe store! I've given up on the 3-inch heels and mules, though. ;-)

4. Read constantly? Less than I'd like, but,... Well, yeah.

5. Never goes out? Who am I kidding--I'd rather stay home. I like my couch and there's plenty of work to keep me busy. Or TV, or memes, or whatever.  Define "out." I go out all the time: to the store, to Little League games, to work, etc. OK, seriously...actually, I'm going to a bar this Friday. Otherwise, I don't have that much time to "go out." Because, see, I'm married. With a kid. And I work full time.

6. Sexually inexperienced? Less so than last time even. ;-) See the end of the last answer. Married. Kid. So....no.

7. Friend are all librarians? Nope. I know a lot of librarians, but I have "other kinds" of friends too. NO! In fact all my relatives are librarians....ok, only 2 others, the rest are teachers. My friends are bookkeepers (the $$ kind), chemists, small business owners, stay-at-home Moms, consultants, ComEd repair techs, and a few librarians.

8. Could care less about fashion? Yes. I really think fashion is ridiculous. I like to laugh at fashion. I don't like "girly" fashion, but do like comfy fashion: cargo pants, Tshirts, hoodies, jeans...

9. Lean to the left when it comes to politics? I don't just lean left... Yep. Got me here.

10. Was a nerd in high school? The older I get, the more I think there are only about 8 people in this country who didn't feel like nerds in high school. Got me here too. Hopeless nerd. For which I thank my stars!

11. Wear hair in a bun? Hair's too short now, but it is increasingly gray. Sigh. I'd actually like to figure out how to do a bun... But no, although in almost every other style I can figure out!

12. Am constantly covered in dust? Absolutely not! I'd be dead if I were around that much dust! Cheetos dust only.

13. Librarian by day/Bacardi by night? ...sigh... Nope. Not so much anymore for sure. Heh. I drink Bacardi. Not sure I have the tan for the ad campaign though...among other 'issues.'

14. Wear glasses? Not that they help much, but... Yep.

15. Female? In every way. Yep. Last time I checked the DNA.

16. Abilities in the yarn arts? No change here:  I can knit, but not particularly well. Don't know how to crochet. Or tat. Waiting till retirement to take that up... hah
