100 questions
From roya_spirit and rougewench
1. Are you an innie or an outie?
Innie, and a tiny innie at that.
2. Have you ever worn bell-bottoms?
No. I've been told they make your thighs look smaller, but I still can't bring myself to wear them.
3. Have you ever written a song?
Yes, a couple very silly blues songs. One about wanting to ride motorcyles in January and one about a man buying his woman a vibrator. I will not torture my readers by posting them.
4. Can you make change for a dollar right now?
Nope. I deposited all my change in the change jar last night.
5. Have you ever been in the opposite sex's bathroom?
Numerous times. No point in waiting for the women's room if the men's room is empty. But usually it's pretty nasty in there.
6. Have you ever smelled your own feet?
Try working a long day at RenFest in a 15-pound costume and leather boots--and *not* smelling your feet at the end of the day.
7. Do you like ketchup on or beside your french fries?
I don't eat french fries. Or ketchup for that matter.

No, but I can touch the bottom of my chin.
9. Have you ever been a boy/girl scout?
Yes and hated every second of it.
10. Have you ever broken a mirror?
Yes, but I don't remember when or whose.

No.
14. Have you ever blown bubbles in your milk?

Neither, although since 0 likes Burger King, that's the usual place to stop when we're on a road trip.
16. Have you ever gone skinny-dipping?
Yes, although I don't really like to swim. Or be in water.
17. When you are at the grocery store, do you ask for paper or plastic?
Plastic. I can reuse the sacks easier.
18. True or False: You would rather eat steak than pizza.

22. Have you ever had a birthday party at McDonald's?
Hell no.
23. Can you flip your eyelids up?

24. Are you double jointed?
Definitely in my hands. I don't know if my back, shoulders and knees are double-jointed or just flexible.
25. If you could be any age, what would you be?
If I could know what I know now, I'd like to be 26 and *never* let myself get out of shape again.
26. Have you ever gotten gum stuck in your hair?
Yes. I fell asleep in the car on a road trip and had gum in my mouth. I think Mom went through an entire jar of Skippy to get it out. It was awful. I had super-long hair.
27. Have you ever thrown-up after a roller coaster ride?
No, since I don't go on rides.
28. What is your dream car?
No idea. I don't really like to drive, so this isn't an issue for me.
30. Would you go swimming in shallow waters where, one year earlier, a shark had attacked a child?
See the answer to question #16.

No real cavities, but a couple fillings in my molars where the enamel didn't form correctly.
32. Have you ever eaten a dog biscuit?
No.
33. If you were in a car sinking in a lake, which would you do first: unbuckle your seat belt or open your window?
I have no idea. I'd probably panic and drown. It's my number 1 fear (see #s 16 and 30).
34. Have you ever ridden in an ambulance?
Thankfully, no.
35. Can you pick something up with your toes?
Yes.
36. How many remote controls do you have in your house?
Too many to count. Luckily, most are on a universal.

39. How many foreign countries have you visited?
Italy and Mexico.
40. If you were out of shape, would you compete in a triathlon if you were somehow guaranteed to win a big, gaudy medal?
Will someone pay me enough to support me so I can train 8 hours a day? Who cares about the medal, but I'd love to be in that kind of shape!
41. Would you rather be rich and unhappy, or poor and happy?
I'd like to try the rich and unhappy for a while so I can really *appreciate* being poor and happy.

Float. I'm not an idiot.
44. Do you ask for directions when you are lost?
Heck yeah.

Nope.
46. Are you more like Cinderella or Alice in Wonderland?
Cinderella, especially when it comes to shoes.
47. Would you rather have an ant farm with no ants or a box of crayons with broken points?
The crayons are at least still usable. The ant farm is boring even when it has the ants.

They both have their places.
49. Do you prefer scrambled or fried eggs?
Over-easy, with bacon to dip in the runny yolk.

Yes, but I wasn't the owner or driver either time.
51. Do you talk in your sleep?
No, although I've been told I kind of snore.
52. Would you rather shovel show or mow the lawn?
Shovel. For the first few minutes at least, I find the scoop and dump motion of shovelling very soothing. Especially when the neighboorhood is quiet and dark and even the scrape the shovel is muffled by earmuffs and the damp snow. Mowers are way too loud and hard to push.
53. Would you rather be bitten by a poisonous snake or constricted by a python?
Could I see what's behind door number three?
54. Have you ever played in the rain?
Never. I hate to be wet.

I suppose the bear since I wouldn't be in the water with the shark.
56. Would you climb a very high tree to save a kitten?
No, but only because I can't climb trees. Now if I had a ladder, I'd be ok.
57. Can you tell the difference between a crocodile and an alligator?
Yes. Crocodiles have narrower snouts.
58. Do you drink Pepsi or Coke?
Diet Vanilla Coke.
59. What's your favorite number?
I don't have one.
60. If you were a car, would you be an SUV or a sports car?
I would like to be the zippy sports car, but my body esteem is not so great right now. I feel kind of like a Buick today.
61. Have you ever accidentally taken something from a hotel?
How, exactly, do you "accidentally" take something from a hotel? "Oh, gosh, honey, you mean we didn't own these towels that say "Ramada" along the bottom?"
62. Would you blow your nose at the dinner table?
My nose runs on constant drip mode, especially when I eat. If I never blew my nose at the table, I'd be getting up every two minutes.
63. Have you ever slipped in the bathtub?
No.
64. Do you use regular or deodorant soap?
Regular, unscented liquid Dove. I don't like deodorant smells.

66. Would you rather make your living as a singing cowboy or as one of the Simpsons voices?
Singing cowboy, definitely.
67. If you could invite any movie star to your home for dinner, who would it be?
No idea. Someone interesting who wasn't too stuck on themself.
68. Have you ever made a semi truck honk?
I think so, but my childhood is sort of a blur.
69. Which would you rather live with: a huge nose or crossed eyes?
Huge nose. I'm already halfway there! Big noses are cool.

Sure. My circles of friends are quite varied. I can't expect them all to like each other.
71. Would you hang out with someone your best friend liked, but you didn't like?
I suppose it would depend on the reason I didn't like the person.
72. Have you ever returned a gift?
Usually just to get a different size.
73. Would you give someone else a gift that had been given to you?
Probably not. People are pretty good about buying me things I like.
74. If you could attend an Olympic Event, what would it be?
Maybe one of the hockey games. I don't like watching performace things like gymnastics or figure-skating. I get insanely nervous for the contestants and can't enjoy the show.
75. How many pairs of shoes do you own?
No clue. Enough to fill the entire bottom of my closet two shoes deep.
77. Do you sing in the car?
Yes. But not in the shower.
78. Would you rather jump into a dumpster or into a vat of honey?
Mmmm. The honey.
79. What is your favorite breed of dog?
I love to look at weiner dogs, but I don't know that I'd want to own one.
80. Would you donate money to feed starving animals in the winter?
What animals? Raccoons? Probably not. To a shelter? Yes.
81. If you were a bicycle, would you be a stingray or a mountain bike?
I don't like bicycles, but if I was one, I'd probably be an old-fashioned girly bike with a bell and basket.
82. What is your least favorite fruit?
I think starfruit is really bland and pointless. Pretty, but pointless..
83. What kind of fruit have you never had?
That weird fruit from south asia that smells like rotten eggs.
84. If you won a $5,000 shopping spree to any store, which store would you pick?
Can I spread it out over a year? If so, Target. If not, Blue Heron Furnishings.

Brand? If I have to say a brand, probably my Capezio dance slippers.

One in drama and one in journalism.
87. Among your friends, who could you arm wrestle and beat?
I have *no* idea.

89. Would you ever parachute out of a plane?
I would like to think so, but when it came down to it, I'm not sure I could. I have a *very* well-developed sense of self-preservation.
