1. I wish I had enough money to pay off my bills and know that my family is taken care of.
2. If you had to enter a competition for the "Most Uselessly Unique Talent," what would your talent be? Recalling old commercial songs and music in general. Most people can remember movie trivia, I remember music.
3. When it might hurt their feelings, how do you feel about telling your friends the truth? It depends, if it is something that would benefit them to know then I would gently let them know. If it was something trivial, I would possibly keep it to myself.

5. Is there someone you would like to take your place in life for one day? Who and why? no, not really

7. What do you think is the ugliest thing or event on Earth? mean/hateful/evil people
8. What is your least favorite of your personality traits or quirks? I can be shy when I first meet someone and it makes me seem awkward. I am also not good at small talk.
9. I wish I could see my family that has passed away because I miss them.
10. Tell us your favorite children's story. Goodnight Moon...because I read it to my son so much as a little child. It just has good memories attached to it. I like to read The Crayon Box That Talked at the preschool.
11. Explain how to play your favorite game. The kids at the preschool love to play "Who Took The Cookie from the Cookie Jar"? It is a fun game to play with them. I am not writing out how to play though. I like to play Trivial Pursuit with adults.
12. What do you keep in the trunk of your car? spare tire and some cleaning supplies for my car.
13. Tell us about your favorite way to get lost in a simple activity — running, chopping vegetables, folding laundry, whatever. What’s it like when you’re in "the zone"? I like to listen to music to take my mind off of tasks like that.
14. What’s your dream tourist destination — either a place you’ve been and loved, or a place you’d love to visit? What about it speaks to you? I would love to visit Europe...because of the history and architecture.

16. What kind of program do you enjoy most on TV--detective shows, comedies, game shows--and why? I enjoy detective shows, medical shows, historical shows.
17. Do you know any professional athletes? Rod Smith from the Denver Broncos...I went to college with him. He was a business major. We went to a small college...Missouri Southern State College and he was not drafted. The Dallas Cowboys took a chance and put him on their practice squad and I cannot remember the story now, but he ended up on the Denver Broncos with a Superbowl ring. So happy for him!
18. What will the next must-have technological innovation be? Jetpacks? Hoverboards? Wind-powered calculators? I do not know, I will let that be a surprise and I will love it.
19. Have you ever been the victim of a crime? yes
20. What if you woke up tomorrow with the ability to understand animals. What do you think you’d hear from them? My dogs mostly tell me they are hungry or thirsty.

21.What is something that makes you melancholy? When the sun doesn't come out for days/weeks or when my son sleeps the day away.

ReplyDeleteI feel like I am socially awkward, too, but people who have known me for years would say I'm outgoing.
