Huh Meme

It’s the weekly meme steal, courtesy of Tense Teacher, who I enjoy ripping off each week.

1. Do you wake up cranky?
If I have to wake up by my alarm clock, yes.  If I can just get up whenever I wake up, no.

2. If an ex said he hates you, you say…?
I don’t give a flying rat’s ass.

3. Would you curse in front of your parents?
My dad, yes.  My mom - not so much.  I still get scolded.  Yes, I’m 30.

4. If a fairy godmother comes into your life, you…?
Would hand her some cleaning supplies and tell her to get on it.

5. What is your current annoyance?
I’m stuck at a plateau of losing weight.  It’s pissing me off.

6. Do you like drama?
Love it.  In books, and on TV.  In my life, keep it far, far, far, far, far away.  I don’t have the patience/tolerance to deal with it.

7. What kind of camera do you have?
Nikon D50 SLR

8. Last time you were on a boat and where?
Thanksgiving.  Long Island Sound.  My dad and his friend took me and my boy out Blue fishing.

9. Do you take daily vitamins or medications?
Not a single one.  However, I want to start taking a vitamin, and if I get diagnosed with a blood disorder we now all suspect I have, I’ll have to take something for that.

10. Where is your computer located?
Wherever I am.  It’s a laptop.  It’s home base is in my home office, but it goes where I go.

11. Would you ever eat cow poop?
Are we talking for money?  Because as a broke student, depending on the amount you’re willing to pay….

12. What was the last thing you bought?
Replacement earring backs

13. What country has the best food?
Italy

14. Last time you used a coupon?
Probably when my boy and I went out to eat somewhere, but technically he used it…me?  Gosh…no idea.

15. Are you afraid of roller coasters?
No way - I love them!

16. If your best friend told you he or she was moving, you…?
Would ask why???  Because if it’s a lame reason, I’d be more upset.  If it was for some positive life change, I’d be thrilled (and slightly bummed they were moving).

17. Would you rather go to a party or out of town?
Out of town

18. Apple Bottom Jeans or Hollister gift card?
What the hell are Apple Bottom Jeans?  And Hollister?  Do I live under a rock?

19. Do you think you’re dumb?
Only when it comes to all things math related.

20. Say a random word?
Boogie

21. Do you wear anything with skulls?
Nope, just my head!

22. What is/was your school mascot?
High School - Warrior.  Undergrad - Stag.  M.A. - Blazer (like a dragon, not a jacket).  Now?  Well, it’s the Alabama Crimson Tide, but they have Big Al the Elephant…so I guess the Elephant?

Both.  Actually, I have both a high school and college class ring.

24. At what age do you want to be married?
Ahem.  No comment.

25. Is divorce an option?
I would like to say absolutely not, but there’s certain deal breakers for me.  I mean, if there’s a meth lab being run out of the house, and no willingness to stop it or get help for it…well…thanks, but that’s not what I envision marriage to be.

Black.  With funky ribbons tied on the handles.

Happiness.  The rest will fall into place if I have that.
