I don't like sending chain email, so I figured I'd blog this. 1. WERE YOU NAMED AFTER ANYONE?Supposedly, my great-grandmother Ethel (my middle name is Elizabeth). But we found out when I was 10 that my grandmother (her daughter)'s real name was Elizabeth. For some reason, someone started calling her Ruth at a very early age, and it stuck. But I always felt a real connection to my grandmother, so when I found out we had the same given name, I felt we had an even more special bond. 2. WHEN WAS THE LAST TIME YOU CRIED? Actually, I don't remember. That's pretty good, huh? 3. DO YOU LIKE YOUR HANDWRITING? Nope. 4. WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE LUNCH MEAT? I don't eat a lot of lunch meat. I used to love hard salami (insert rude joke here). 5. DO YOU HAVE KIDS? Three, not including my cats. 6. IF YOU WERE ANOTHER PERSON WOULD YOU BE FRIENDS WITH YOU? Interesting question. I'd like to think so. Of course, if I were another person, I m ight think the other me was really annoying or weird. 7. DO YOU USE SARCASM A LOT? I don't know what you're talking about. 8. DO YOU STILL HAVE YOUR TONSILS? Nope. Yanked out when I was 21. That may have been the worst pain I've ever endured -- and the epidural wore off before I gave birth to Benjamin, so we're saying something here. 9. WOULD YOU BUNGEE JUMP?Not on your life. I don't like the idea of doing anything that simulates a scary way to die. 10. WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE CEREAL? Cocoa Puffs, but I don't allow myself to eat it much. 11. DO YOU UNTIE YOUR SHOES WHEN YOU TAKE THEM OFF? Not often, no. Bad habit I'm trying not to teach to my kids. 12. DO YOU THINK YOU ARE STRONG? Yes, I am fairly strong (physically and emotionally), though I don't feel it all the time. 13. WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE ICE CREAM?Ben & Jerry's Neapolitan Dynamite -- it's Cherry Garcia and Fudge Brownie all mixed together. Wow. 14. WHAT IS THE FIRST THING YOU NOTICE ABOUT PEOPLE? Often, their hands. I find hands really interesting. 15. RED OR PINK? Red, especially blue-reds. 16. WHAT IS THE LEAST FAVORITE THING ABOUT YOURSELF? My horrendous immune system causes me all sorts of problems, not the least of which an extreme inability to lose weight. I have to work much harder than most people just to maintain. That and my horrendous temper. 17. WHO DO YOU MISS THE MOSTMy grandmother Ruth, and my dog Oliver (from childhood). 18. DO YOU WANT EVERYONE TO SEND THIS BACK TO YOU? Sure, this stuff is fun! 19. WHAT COLOR PANTS AND SHOES ARE YOU WEARING? Yellow pajama pants, no shoes. 20. WHAT WAS THE LAST THING YOU ATE? Oatmeal 21. WHAT ARE YOU LISTENING TO RIGHT NOW? Benjamin screaming bloody murder because DH took his pacifier away. 22. IF YOU WERE A CRAYON, WHAT COLOR WOULD YOU BE? Cornflower blue 23. FAVORITE SMELLS? Chocolate wafting over the city from Blommer Chocolate Factory, Johnson's Baby Shampoo on clean kids, yummy things baking. 24. WHO WAS THE LAST PERSON YOU TALKED TO ON THE PHONE? My mom 25. DO YOU LIKE THE PERSON WHO SENT THIS TO YOU? Yes, and I'm so glad she found me again! (Hi, T in Las Vegas!) 26. FAVORITE SPORTS TO WATCH? Baseball. I like basketball but only if I get to see it live, and I like watching my kids play almost anything. 27. HAIR COLOR? Brownish 28. EYE COLOR? Blue 27. DO YOU WEAR CONTACTS? I used to wear them all the time, but after my last operation, I have trouble wearing them often. So I have to wear glasses most of the time. 30. FAVORITE FOOD? That's a very tough question. I love cheese, chocolate, pasta, and seafood. One of the best things I ever tasted was my very first lobster roll in Cape Cod (I'll always have to be grateful to my mother-in-law for that!). 31. SCARY MOVIES OR HAPPY ENDINGS? I'm sappy, so happy endings. 32. LAST MOVIE YOU WATCHED? "Waiting..." about waiters at a Bennigan's-like restaurant. 33. WHAT COLOR SHIRT ARE YOU WEARING? Apple green t-shirt 34. SUMMER OR WINTER? Summer, please. 35. HUGS OR KISSES? Hard to argue with a good hug. 36. FAVORITE DESSERT? Chocolate-chip cheesecake is yummy. Oh, and creme brulee. Chocolate tapioca pudding. Hot apple pie. Damn, I'm hungry now. 37. MOST LIKELY TO RESPOND? Uh....?38. LEAST LIKELY TO RESPOND I can't see DH doing this stuff. 39. WHAT BOOK ARE YOU READING NOW? "Tickled Pink," by Rita Rudner 40. WHAT IS ON YOUR MOUSE PAD? Don't use one. 41. WHAT DID YOU WATCH ON T.V. LAST NIGHT? The second half of "Drop Dead Gorgeous," and then "Waiting..." 42. FAVORITE SOUND? Benjamin giggling. 43. ROLLING STONES OR BEATLES? The Beatles, all the way. 44. WHAT IS THE FARTHEST YOU HAVE BEEN FROM HOME? Spain 45. DO YOU HAVE A SPECIAL TALENT? I sing fairly well, but Jacob says my special talent is "buying things." 46. WHERE WERE YOU BORN? Cleveland, Ohio, but don't tell anyone. 47. WHOSE ANSWERS ARE YOU LOOKING FORWARD TO GETTING BACK? Anyone! 48. WHAT TIME IS IT NOW? 9:38 AM |
