I haven't done one of these in a while, and I saw this one at Traci's journal, so I thought I'd indulge:

1. What is your favorite thing to wear? shorts and a t-shirt

2. Last thing you ate? a banana

3. Nastiest thing you've ever eaten? hominy

4. I say Shotgun,you say? I have no idea what this means!  I guess I would say shotgun, too.  Maybe I would say 12-gauge or pump, depending on the context.

 

5. How many U.S states have you been to? 11

6. How many of the U.S states have you lived in? 2

7. What is your favorite romance movie? The BBC production of Pride and Prejudice with Elizabeth Ehle and Colin Firth, if I have to pick one.

8. Favorite type of food?  pasta

9. Do you care if your socks are dirty? yes

10. Have you ever cheated on a test? no

11. Has anyone ever sang or played for you personally? Yes!  Thomas sang to me a song by Lobo when we were on a date. 

12. Do you like Bush? I don't dislike the man personally, but as President I feel insulted by him.  I know of no other way to say it.  I saw him years ago as a guest ona syndicated fishing show, and I thought he was funny and personable; and even now when he speaks off the cuff, I don't dislike him.  But as President, I don't like him.  He just isn't a President that I could warm to.  There!  I don't usually give a personal opinion in any political way on any issue, so you've just gotten something out of me that I rarely give.

13. Have you ever gone white-water rafting? No, and I never care to do so.

14. Have you met a real redneck? Oh yes!  I'm from rural Kentucky, so rednecks abound. 

15. How is the weather right now? 70 degrees, partly cloudy

16. Where was the last place you went besides your house? I just picked up my son from Prosser Tech.

17. What are you afraid of? Heights

18. How many pets do you have? 6 dogs, 1 cat, 2 birds, and numerous fish (I haven't counted lately)  Actually only one dog and the cat are mine.

19. What's one thing you’ve learned? Good communication is the key to any successful relationship

20. What do you usually order from Starbucks?  Plain black coffee.  It freaks them out!

21. Have you ever fired a gun? Oh yes!  I personally own a Remington 1100 12-gauge, a Knight's in-line 50 cal. muzzle loader and a Marlin .22; and I have shot most of Thomas' collection as well.  The first gun I ever shot was my father's .410 that he'd had with him on ship during WWII.  I was 11 the first time I ever fired it.

22. FavoriteTV show? Any of the CSIs, Criminal Minds and Numbers.  Can't name just one.

23. Has anyone ever said you looked like a celeb? No

24. If you had a daughter (or another daughter), what would you name her?  I have no idea.  Our daughter is named for her two grandmothers, and I've never given any thought to another girls' name other than hers.

25. Do you find yourself loved? Very much so!

26. Have you ever been caught doing something you weren't supposed to? I'm sure I have, but I won't confess here!

27. Butter, plain, or salted popcorn? Usually I want it buttered and salted, but occasionally I just want it lightly salted and no butter.

28. Have you ever ridden in a limo? No.

29. Has anyone you were really close to passed away recently? No.

30. What's something that really bugs you? Not being listened to when I'm speaking.

31. Do you like Michael Jackson? No

32. Favorite baseball team? No preference

33. Have you ever milked a cow? Yes, and I've also milked a goat!

34. Last time you went bowling? I'm ashamed to say it, but I was pregnant with Andrew the last time I went bowling!  Way too long ago!

35. Have you ever cut your own hair? Yes.  I have always cut my own hair, since I was 12 years old.  I have only had it professionally cut twice, and I didn't like it; I did a better job myself; other than those times, my mother and one of my sisters have cut my hair.  I used to cut everyone's hair in my family.

I now pass this along to anyone who would like to do it.
