Where...
1] Were you born? In a hospital 4 blocks outside the city in which I grew up.
2] Did you meet your best friend? I met Beast in my dorm room freshman year when he came to harass my roommate, who ignored him. I met Jenny at our first band rehearsal of freshman year. I met Amy at a consortial (work) meeting.
3] Was your first job? Babysitting.
4] Did your grandparents live? They lived out the end of their lives in a house they built in my hometown. My dad went to high school in the building my junior high was in (which has been torn down this summer).
5] Do you shop for groceries? It varies. If I'm in my workplace town, I'll hit the locally-owned store, unless I need something unusual or weird. If I have to, I'll go to the regional chain next. However, for my actual Big Shopping Trips, I go to the city on the other side of us because they have better prices and I like the store better.
6] Did you have your first kiss? On the lips.
7] Did you go to pre-school? Since it still exists under the same name, I'll just say that it is 4.5 blocks down the hill from my house, and kitty-korner from my grade school. Here's a photo:
8] Did you live before here? Not too far away.
9] Do you frequently shop for clothes? I don't "frequently shop for clothes."
10] Do you last go? Home.
11] Do you get your hair cut? HQ.
12] Do you keep your nail polish between manicures? In my upstairs bathroom cupboard.
13] Is the nearest park? About .25 miles north of here.
14] Did you have your last kiss? Lips, in the staff breakroom. ... Don't be that way: Beast brought some stuff over to the library and I kissed him goodbye.
15] Would your dream house be located? I'm actually in my dream house, but I'd rather it were in the mountains.
16] Do you usually go for concerts? Wherever the musicians we want to listen to are playing. We've attended big concerts in 5 or 6 venues within 75 miles of where I am now. And there are concerts much closer quite often.
17] Do you buy body jewelry? Online. Unless by "body jewely" you mean earrings, in which case, I buy them lots and lots of different places.
18] Were you last night? At work till 9, then here on the couch till 11, then in bed.
19] Is your cellphone right now? Charging on the Crossley.
20] Do you spend most of your time? Bed...or work. Take your pick.
21] Did you go to elementary school? Kitty-corner across from that photo above.
22] Do you go when you want to be alone? My car or my bedroom.
23] Is the nearest mall? According to Google Maps, there's one about 5 miles from here, but really the nearest mall as I define them is about 20 miles away.
24] Do you go to buy snacks most often (ex. Quick Chek)? The grocery store. Boring, eh?
25] Do you go when you want fast food? Taco Bell is my go-to for lunch/dinner; McD's for breakfast.
26] Do you usually go out to eat? There is no "usually" here: we go all over for food.
27] Did you purchase your car from? Carmax.
28] Did you last apply for a job? December 1995.
29] Were you on 9/11? Beast called me when I was at church doing some volunteer work. I drove home--the first tower fell as I listened on the radio--and turned on the TV. Minutes later, our new pastor called and asked if they could come over since they didn't have theirs hooked up yet.
30] Did you purchase the shirt you're wearing? It was last summer's Summer Reading Program shirt.
31] Did you get your last pet? PetCo, I think.
32] Do you keep your makeup? I don't really have makeup; my chapstick are in the top drawer in the bathroom.
33] Were you this morning? I got up at 5:30 for 6:30 Bible Study. Then, work.
34] Do you go when you're on a break at work? I don't really get breaks except for meals.
35] Is your mom right now? That's a pretty heavy metaphysical question for me right now; today's the fifth anniversary of my mother-in-law's death. My own mom died almost eleven months later.
36] Are your pets right now? In their cage, rustling around chewing on newspaper.
37] Were you at ten this morning? Pretty much established that I was at work this morning, yo.
38] Did you sleep last night? In bed.
39] Did you live five years ago? Here.
40] Is the last person you texted? Beast, who I believe was already in bed and so didn't answer.
41] Does your dad work? Not anymore.
42] Does your mom work? Ahem. Not anymore.
43] Do your siblings work? Of those who aren't dead, one works and the other is retired and thinks her job is to pester the rest of us.
44] Would you like to get married? I would prefer not to get married again.
45] Would you like to go on vacation? Mountains.
46] Is your favorite amusement park located? I don't really go for amusement parks. There's a totally awesome Ferris wheel about 60 miles from here that I love, though.
47] Would you like to work? At my current workplace.
48] Did you last purchase something? I got a massage after work today, so I guess that?
49] Do you go to buy yogurt? That ever-recurring grocery store.
50] Does your significant other live? Here.
