01. Who is your favorite movie actor? Probably right now I'd have to go with Jennifer Lawrence. She's good at acting, and awesomely funny. She's moving up on Sandra Bullock fast.
02. What was the last book you finished? What book are you currently reading? The last one was The Cuckoo's Calling ("Robert Galbraith" a.k.a. J.K. Rowling). I'm currently reading a shit-ton of other books: Dream New Dreams, by Jai Pausch; Mystery Writers of America Presents The Mystery Box, (ed. Brad Meltzer); Leonardo da Vinci, by Luke Syson; Help, Thanks, Wow, by Anne Lamott; In the Footsteps of Jesus, by Jean-Pierre Isbouts; A Little Book for New Theologians, by Kelly M. Kapic. Crazy.
03. Do you play The Sims 2 or 3? I have played it. Not recently. I like the PC game the best, and I haven't updated it in over 10 years.
04. How much do you watch TV on an average day? By choice, maybe 3-4 hours on average. It's on a lot more than that, though.
05. What is your best friend's mom's name? Y'know...I'm not sure of one friend's, and the other friend's has just flown out of my head. Beast's mom's name was the name of the only purported female Pope.
06. Are you a fan of Lady Gaga and/or Ke$ha? In terms of mindless fun, they're great. In terms of the advancement of civilization, they are the pits.
07. Have you ever painted a picture? Sure. Paint-by-numbers was around when I was a child. And there were all those "art projects" in grade school. I'm no artist.
08. What is your favorite cereal? Froot Loops.
09. Do you play games on the Internet often? Unfortunately.

11. What does your favorite pair of shoes look like?  I do NOT play favorites with my shoes! That's like picking my favorite kid. (ok, yeah, I know...)
12. What is your school's colors/mascot? My grade school was gold and black=Mustangs; my junior high was red and white=Panthers; my high school was blue and white=Pirates; my college was orange and white=Pioneers; my grad school was gold and black=Panthers. Full circle.
13. What type of building do you live in? A house.
14. Do you edit pictures before you let people see them? Depends on where I'm posting them, but generally not.
15. What kind of decorations do you have in your room? In my room?? I don't really have a "decor" going in this house. It's comfortable. Not fussy.
16. Do you get along with your siblings, if you have them? Yes, for the most part. We all tolerate each other's eccentricities fairly well.
17. What is the longest song you have on your music player? I don't ever use a music player; I use Pandora or (more commonly) Spotify. The longest song I've got starred on Spotify is "Alice's Restaurant Massacre," by Arlo Guthrie, at over eighteen and a half minutes.
