Skippage

Continuing her tradition of including me in her e-mail question games …

Skipper forwarded me the following series of questiooooons …

1. What time do you get up? I fall asleep about 11:00 pm, wake up around 2:00 am, stay awake until around 4:30 am and then wake up for the day around 5:45 am. This I do … every … phreaking … night.

2. If you could eat lunch with one person, who would it be? Obi-wan Kenobi.

3. Gold or silver? Gold, but I graciously accept both, and I put out for diamonds.

4. What was the last film you saw at the cinema? Kill Bill, Vol. 2.

5. What is your favorite TV show? Joan of Arcadia. Though also included on my current viewing roster is Enterprise, CSI, Survivor, American Idol, That 70’s Show, The Simpsons, Alias and 24.

6. What did you have for breakfast today? 1 pot of coffee followed by 2 coffee chasers.

7. Who would you hate to be stuck in a room with? Barbra Streisand.

8. What/Who inspires you? As far as the what … challenges inspire me. As far as the who … people who approach challenges with a healthy attitude, who lead by example, have a great deal of common sense, who can laugh and smile, who find positives in most adversity, who don’t whine, and who never surrender … my dad inspires me, my mom inspires me, my brother inspires me, Singer inspires me, Shaft inspires me, and in what I suppose is a totally self centered answer, I inspire me at times (in a “hell, I’ve done dumber things, I can surely do this” sort of rationalization way). *shrug*

9. What is your middle name? Marie. Same as my mom, same as my cousin, same as my other cousin, and same as Singer.

10. Beach, city or country? City.

11. Favorite ice cream? Mint Chocolate Chip.

12. Butter, plain, or salted popcorn? Butter, as long as it’s that fake butter product at the theater. I don’t know if they put salt on it there or not, but if they do, then yes, salted too.

13. Favorite color? Navy Blue.

14. What kind of car do you drive? Pontiac Grand Am.

15. Favorite sandwich? Hamburger with lettuce, tomato and onion.

16. What characteristic do you despise? Hypocrisy, arrogance and breaches of loyalty.

17. Favorite flower? Roses, but I like mine white.

18. If you could go anywhere in the world on a vacation, where would it be? Geez, I don’t know … I have pretty simple interests … let’s go with Melbourne, Australia via England via Spain.

19. Color is your bathroom? Heck if I know … all I’m aware of is that it is NOT any of the colors that I can see !!! I think it’s got some beige, maybe some burgundy, or rust … seriously, I haven’t a clue.

20. Favorite brand of clothing? Hmmm … it’s not a brand of clothing, but I totally love Coach products. Casual clothes I tend to like items from The Limited or Espirit tops. My Lucky jeans and I have a very special bond … if my house was on fire, are far as material items, first I’d grab my Mont Blanc pen, then I’d grab my coach purse, then I’d grab my Lucky jeans. Many of my more workish outfits I tend to get at Banana Republic. As far as my going out type outfits … they pretty much are randomly acquired at various junior departments or stores selling clothes much younger than I should ever wear that you’d find in any given mall.

21. Where would you like to retire? Yeah right, retire ?? What’s that ?? Actually, I’m pretty good right here … or somewhat nearby … all my friends and family are here … though I’d definitely like a second home in Florida.

22. Favorite day of the week? Saturday night.

23. What did you do for your last birthday? Do I have to admit this ?? Seriously … don’t make me say it … please !!! Okay, okay, okay … yes, i did nothing on my birthday … absolutely nothing !! 😛 Though I would like the record to reflect, that last year, though I did nothing … I had A Great Birthday !! 🙂

24. Where were you born? My birth certificate says Michigan.

25. Favorite sport to watch? University of Michigan football followed closely by the NFL. Football … it’s what life is all about !! Seriously, with an attitude like that, how could a guy not find me desirable ?? Huh ?? lol 🙂 Anyways, after that I’d say the NCAA men’s division I college basketball tournament. Followed by golf and then baseball.

26. Who do you least expect to send this back to you? I’m not sending this out to people, so this is really inapplicable.

27. Person you expect to send it back first? See answer to question number 26.

28. What fabric detergent do you use? Whatever is on sale, but if nothing is on sale, then I usually go with either Tide, Era, All or Surf.

29. Coke or Pepsi? Coke … give me a break, I’m a transsexual, not a sissy.

30. Are you a morning person or a night owl? Totally a morning person, despite the fact that I really don’t get a good night’s sleep !! 🙂

31. What is your shoe size? 9 – 9 1/2, depends on the shoe and whether I’m retaining water.

32. Do you have any pets? Yes, an Shetland Sheepdog (Sheltie) … Indiana Jones Landau Calrissian. He rocks. But check out these two cuties … the one on the left is Jazzy and the one on the right is Molly. They belong to my friend Robin.
