Get to know Me!

As promised, here is the get to know me questionnaire. This is basically a stop gap until the votes are counted and I proceed with posting issues, or more about my life. If you are confused about my promise and the vote, then after reading this post, continue on and read my post from last Thursday. Then you will be enlightened. So, without further ado, here is the questionnaire.
Sorry for the small font, but I didn't want this post to be forever long.

1. What time did you get up this morning? Physically or Mentally? Physically around 7 am. Mentally….I’m working on it, the hot chocolate’s helping (it’s 10:30am).

2. Diamonds or pearls? Uh? Diamonds are a girls best friend…and I like girls, so diamonds…I guess.

3. What was the last film you saw at the cinema? Geez, it’s been a while. I generally rent. Probably X-Men 3 with J2.

4. What is your favorite TV show? Without a doubt, Grey’s Anatomy

5. What did you have for breakfast? A very quick bowl of Rice Krispies (Snap, Crackle, Pop….first my bones, then my cereal)

6. What is your middle name? I don’t generally give it out willy-nilly. Let’s say its one of the 4 Gospels and starts with M (hint: you have 2 choices).

7. What is your favorite cuisine? I don’t think anything I eat is fancy enough to be called a “cuisine”…but I like Steak (mmmm….Outback)

23. Coke or Pepsi? Dr. Pepper….but if I have to choose, it’s Coca-cola, no contest.

25. How many kids do you want? Well, that’s not really my decision to make…I just get to say “yes, dear”

26. Where do you see yourself in 5 years? Hopefully a double Dr…and have a job lined up

27. Any new and exciting news you’d like to share with everyone? This is a bit redundant isn’t it…”new exciting news” wouldn’t you just say news….by definition news is new…if not, the question would ask, any exciting olds to tell? Silly question writer.

28. What did you want to be when you were little? Bigger.

29. Favorite Candy Bar? Do Reese’s count? They aren’t really bars, more like candy pucks. Seriously though, snickers are pretty good.

35. Ever been toilet papered? No, but TP is very useful stuff

36. Ever loved someone so much it made you cry? Excluding family members…not yet

37. Croutons or bacon bits? Add cheese and lettuce and we have a salad…No dressing, thank you.

51. Last person you went out to dinner with? Some fellow students from lab on the boss’ buck…free food is great.

52. Ford or Chevy? Depends on the model. Generally I’ll take a Ford, but if you’re offering a Corvette, then I take the Vette

53. What are you listening to right now? The humming of equipment and the typing of my keyboard….though is that just hearing sounds or actually listening. Listening involves paying attention and retaining, right? So, I’m not listening to anything, but hearing noises.

54. What is your favorite color? Red

55. Lake, Ocean or river? Ocean…no waves in those other bodies of water…a swimming pool would be a good choice too.

56. Which came first, the chicken or the egg? I don’t like philosophy. No answers, just questions and debate. I like science for a reason.

57. What is your favorite song? Too many to choose from. Fortunate Son and Bad Moon Rising are good ones from CCR

58. What book are you reading right now? I’m reading this questionnaire, not a book…you would think the writer of the question would know that. But if referring to what book I’m reading on a regular basis, it’s In the Presence of Mine Enemies by Harry Turtledove

59. What is the one thing you could not travel without? Uh, me. If I’m not there, I’m not really traveling, right?
