Holy jumpin' I'm lazy
Yeah. More MySpace survey madness.
****
1. How do you think your last ex deserves to die?
Okay, I can answer this because it’s not me wishing death upon him. And since we’re all gonna get there anyway....I have no idea about the circumstances leading to it (as in cause), but he deserves to have enough time during the process to realize, fully realize, how badly he screwed up his life (more importantly, his children), and enough time to feel true remorse for it.
2. .List three words to describe your mother?
Incredible, strong, annoying
3. When & how did you meet your best friend?
Lisa - in the same Kindergarten class
Linda - in the same first grade class
Connie - on The Knot
Stephanie - from the Courier-Journal (that’s a story for another day)
4. Would you date someone you “met" on MySpace?
Now, no. In the past, yes.
5. What do you think of internet dating?
It depends on what the meaning of “internet dating” is. (How Clintonesque of me). I see it more as “internet meeting,” and I think it’s a fine idea. Come across someone online, chit-chat back and forth, eventually meet in person, and if all goes well, start dating. The actual “dating” isn’t online - just the circumstances under which you meet someone.
6. If you could be any cartoon character, who would you be and why?
Mr. Peabody. ‘Cuz he had a WABAC machine.
7. What actor/actress would you go gay/lesbian for?
Uh. None. I seem to have been born without a sexual orientation switch.
8. Ever considered yourself crazy?
Yep, but I wasn’t the only one. I considered myself crazy too, and so did me.
9. Have you ever seen a therapist?
Yep.
10. How do you feel about anti-depressants?
Wellllll......I think while they can be effective, they can also mask the root of the actual problem. Take me for instance - as I’ve mentioned here before, I have a biochemical disorder that mimics symptoms of bi-polar. Anti-depressants could potentially work for me, but they wouldn’t correct the disorder, just “band-aid” the symptoms. Treating the actual disorder is a much better solution. I’m not saying that as a blanket generalization for all users of anti-depressants; I just wish that more would be done to find out/make sure the origin of the problem is discovered and treated. And - I’m not talking about use of anti-depressants as a result of circumstances (PPD, mourning/grief, trauma, etc.). Some disagree, but I support using anti-depressants if someone really needs them during those times. I’m talking about long-term/permanent use.
11. When was the last time you saw your (biological) dad?
April 1, 1996
12. Would you rather have loved and lost, or never have loved at all?
Loved and lost, definitely.
13. What advice would you give to your ex’s new love interest?
“Don’t. Just don’t. You’re worth more.”
14. What make, model, and color was your first car?
1988 Mercury Sable. Her name was Gertude. Got it new in ‘88 and drove it until 2002.
15. Did you ever try to do the Humpty dance?
Never ever ever ever. Nor have I ever tried to get busy in a Burger King bathroom.
16. Do you even remember the Humpty dance?
No, thanks to years of therapy.
18. Have you ever faked a nose bleed? Did anyone believe you?
No, didn’t have to. Had a leaky faucet bloody nose as a teenager. That cauterization thing hurts like a beeyotch, btw.
19. Did you ever fantasize about being close friends with a celebrity?
When I was a kid, I wanted to be best friends with Shaun Cassidy. Shut up.
20. Did you ever believe you had a monster or ghost living in your closet?
Just once. Turns out it was the cat.
21. Have you ever crossdressed?
No, but I wore men’s shirts and sweaters for years. I loves me some man shirts.
22. Have you ever put a bra on your head like in Weird Science?
No, but Stephanie put my bra on her head while she was folding my laundry last year, as I layed in bed with a horrible sickness you don’t want me to describe.
23. Have you ever played real golf?
Yes. And I don’t want to again.
24. Have you ever had a crush on someone much younger than you?
Define “much.”
25. Do you have any odd deformities?
No, all of my deformities are even.
27. Have you ever had sex in a moving vehicle?
Is “rocking” considered moving?
28. What is the best meal you know how to cook?
That’s a long list. I shall toot my own horn and say that I rock with the cookin’.
29. What is the blanket you sleep with like?
Depends on which ones are clean.
30. Have you ever streaked across a football field?
End zone to end zone or just the width?
31. Have you ever thought about streaking across a football field?
Okay. How much do you want for the pictures.
32. Have you ever gone to band camp (sleep away)?
Not band camp. Girl Scout camp though.
33. If you could do something and know you’d never get caught or punished, what would it be?
Make sure Mom got what is rightfully hers. I tried long ago and was mostly successful, but not completely.
34. Are you missing any body parts that you were born with?
Tonsils. I wonder if they miss me.
35.Have you ever been a bully?
I’m gonna say no. However, someone I knew during childhood would say yes. A couple of years ago, I got in contact with a woman I knew from my old neighborhood. When I told her I’d been a Montessori teacher, she said, “I just can’t see you working with kids. You were such a bully when we were younger.” That shocked the hell out of me. ME a bully?!?! I always stuck up for the “underdog” kids...how could I have been perceived as a bully???
So I’m sticking with my answer of “no.”
36. Have you ever been bullied?
Emotionally, yes.
37. Have you ever called a suicide hotline?
Nope.
38. How would you describe your significant other?
SmartSexyFunnyCaringDaringCompassionateT
39. Do your dreams haunt you?
Nah. Regrets haunt me. Getting better over time at forgiving myself and letting them go.
40. Have you ever had an anxiety attack?
Nope, and from how people have described them to me, I hope I never do.
Yeah. More MySpace survey madness.
