Saturday Survey

i saw this in a bunch of places (Rebecca, Nichole, Chele and Krystyn on her private blog) and now it's time to play along, appropriately on Saturday.

1. What is in the back seat of your car right now?
an insulated bag for refrigerated/frozen grocery purchases. a bottle of Febreeze in "Spring Renewal" scent. one of those windshield shades that keeps the sun from beating down into your car in an effort to keep it somewhat cooler.
2. When was the last time you threw up?
remember that episode of Seinfeld where Jerry mentions how long it's been & then he ends up getting sick? yeah well, i am not saying. i would cut off my right arm if it would keep me from ever throwing up again.
3. What's your favorite curse word?
ummm... damn? crap? i don't really curse very often.
4. Name 3 people who made you smile today?
Mega. Troy. Michelle.
5. What were you doing at 8 am this morning?
i was still asleep & having some very bizarre disjointed dreams, i might add.
6. What were you doing 30 minutes ago?
reading another chapter in "Dynasty" by Tony Massarotti and realizing just how much Dan Duquette contributed to making the Sox who they are today.
7. What will you be doing 3 hours from now?
hmmm... 11:25pm? that's a toss up. i could be reading (possibly more of my book, possibly catching up on blogs) or i could be asleep. all depends on what time i get sleepy tonight.
8. Have you ever been to a strip club?
no & i cannot say i've ever had the urge to go. they hold no appeal for me in any way, not even for the sake of curiosity.
9. What is the last thing you said aloud?
"bye."
10. What is the best ice cream flavor?
i don't think i can pick a "best". there are so many that i love... vanilla is probably the most versatile though.
11. What was the last thing you had to drink?
water. as usual.
12. What was the last thing you ate?
the last of the leftover turkey that i had to clean up. i just made a turkey sandwich on whole wheat with some mayo.
13. Have you bought any new clothing items this week?
yep. needed some new underwear. i only buy new ones when some get retired & some got retired so i bought some new ones to replace them.
14. When was the last time you ran?
through the rain to my front door on Wednesday when i got home from work.
15. What's the last sporting event you watched?
Red Sox game against the Angels this afternoon. ::enormous sigh::
16. Who is the last person you emailed?
my old neighbor from a long time ago, Matt. we stumbled into one another on Facebook. it's cool to reconnect with (some) people.
17. Ever go camping?
no, and i hope to keep in that way.
18. Do you have a tan?
i'm not sure that's possible with SPF45. and if you saw how blindingly white i am, you would understand the necessity for SPF45.
19. Do you drink your soda from a straw?
the only time i drink soda at all is when i have an upset stomach & i have some ginger ale in which case i sip it from the can.
20. What did your last IM say?
wow... it's been a while since i IM'd. too bad you didn't ask about text, huh?
21. Are you someone's best friend?
without sounding like i have a big ego, i am lucky enough to be the best friend of several most wonderful people.
22. What are you doing tomorrow?
church. grocery shopping. watching the Sox. typical Sunday.
23. Where is your mom right now?
beats the heck outta me. she could be home. she could be out. she might not even be in Connecticut if she took a vacation.
24. Look to your left, what do you see?
end table. lamp. candle. pack of gum. coaster. bottle of lotion. two framed photos of my god daughter. framed photo of my grandparents on their wedding day.
25. What color is your watch?
silver with a tiny bit of gold accent. and i haven't worn it since Thanksgiving because the battery is (still) dead.
26. What do you think of when you think of Australia?
Grant Balfour, relief pitcher for the Tampa Bay Rays, who the tv announcers feel the need to point out that he is from Australia every time he comes in to pitch.
27. Would you consider plastic surgery?
only under extreme circumstances.
28. What is your birthstone?
opal.
29. Do you go in at a fast food place or just hit the drive thru?

30. How many kids do you want?
in my long ago past, i wanted two or three. now i would say let's get to one & see what happens after that.
31. Do you have a dog?
yes... sort of... i don't have custody of him. Casey is a blond Cocker Spaniel. he just turned six last month.
32. Last person you talked to on the phone?
some recording telling me the warranty is up on my car & trying to sell me something. i hung up before it could elaborate.
33. Have you met anyone famous?
no. i can think of a few i'd like to meet though.
34. Any plans today?
it's a little late to have plans for the day. i did exactly what i wanted to though: a whole lot of nothing.

two. Florida & Connecticut.
36. Ever go to college?
yep. still paying for it too.
37. Where are you right now?
my living room.
38. Biggest annoyance in your life right now?
uncertainty. and the outrageous renewal cost for my car insurance forcing me to shop for new quotes.

"Livin' Our Love Song" by Jason Michael Carroll. it's playing right now. oops, just changed over to "My Own Prison" by Creed.
40. Are you allergic to anything?
dust. sulfa drugs. some pollens.
41. Favorite pair of shoes you wear all the time?
i don't wear my favorite shoes all the time. they are silver strappy heeled sandals. look great & surprisingly comfortable but they don't really go for "every day wear".
42. Are you jealous of anyone?
not in an all-consuming way, but more in theory than of anything specific. (ok & maybe just a *little* bit of Nichole, Daniel & Steven after the last few texts i just got.)
43. Is anyone jealous of you?
i seriously doubt it. i guess i would be curious to hear why they would be, if they were.
44. What time is it?
9:04pm.
45. Do any of your friends have children?
about half of them do, i would say.
46. Do you eat healthy?
i don't kill myself to eat healthy, but i have always enjoyed fruits & veggies & whole wheat bread, so lots of foods i like are good for me.
47. What do you usually do during the day?
on weekdays, i work. and when my work is done, i play online. on weekends, i usually relax, watch tv, read, run errands, do housework.
48. Do you hate anyone right now?
hate? that's a powerful word. and one that i feel can turn you angry & bitter inside. i do not hate anyone. but i do have very strong dislike for a few people.
49. Do you use the word 'hello' daily?
i do during the week, the million times i answer the phone. on the weekends, it depends.
50. How old will you be turning on your next birthday?
i will be 32. most of the time, i don't care.
51. Have you ever been to Six Flags?
i've been to a couple of them. upstate New York, somewhere in New Jersey, and in Virginia, if i recall correctly. all when i was under the age of 18. not really my thing now so much. especially since i don't do roller coasters or major thrill rides. i am more of a theme park girl than an amusement park girl. (yes, there is really a difference.)
52. How did you get one of your scars?
i have a very faint scar on the fleshy part of the palm on my left hand, just below my thumb where i got burned as an infant. you wouldn't be able to see it if i didn't point it out to you.
