Getting to Know You

My friend Desiree sent this to me, so, read on, if you feel you need more insight into who I am and what I am about.


1. What bill do you hate paying the most?
Car payment
2. Where was the last place you had a romantic dinner?
Too long ago to remember, I think I need to actually go out on a date one of these days, now, to find someone who wants to take me on a date!
3. Do you get jealous easy?
Sometimes, and I always feel badly about it
4. If you could go back and change one thing what would it be?
If I changed it, I wouldn’t have Megan, so no regrets!
5. Name of your first grade teacher?
Mrs Campbell, she was an evil witch, probably the reason I hated school for the rest of my life!
6. What do you really want to be doing right now?
Dancing, I was dancing as I got dressed this morning, and now I am watching Ellen dance, I need to dance some more.
7. What did you want to be when you were growing up?
An actress, or an equestrian, or a business women
8. How many colleges did you attend?
Chichester College of Technology
9. Why did you choose the shirt that you have on right now?
Cause it accentuates my curves and I need all the help I can get
10. What are your thoughts on gas prices?
there is not enough room here to express my thoughts, but I think they should be higher, although if they were, people would just pay more, cause we live in a land of excess, what I really think is that people should be given some kind of tax break for driving hybrid vehicles, and companies should be awarded government grants for researching alternative fuels (and I mean seriously, not some fake, people pleasing grant), and, back to that tax break thing, in fact, I think people should not have to pay a sales tax on vehicles that use alternative fuels or are hybrid, and that tax on fuel should be hiked through the roof to pay for that tax break. It’s about damn time we started paying a realistic price for our lives of greed.
11. If you could move anywhere and take someone with you where would it be?
probably a quiet island in the Caribbean, Bahama’s or south pacific.
12. First thought when the alarm went off this morning?
God, why won’t those children stop crying?
13. Last thought before going to sleep last night?
I hope I don’t still have this same headache in the morning, the same headache I have had for the past three days. I feel better now that I got up and danced!
14. Favorite style of underwear?
All of the above? What exactly is above? Please explain.
16. What errand/chore do you despise?
All of them
17. If you didn't have to work, would you volunteer?
I have to be honest, probably not. Well, maybe sometimes, I don’t know, I am not good with that kind of commitment.
18. Get up early or sleep in?
Early is ok, just so long as I can have a cup of tea and some toast and marmite
19. What is your favorite cartoon character?
no one character, but I really love well drawn and thought out cartoons (I love lots of Disney movies, especially the ones with strong female characters), but right now, I love Avatar:The Last Airbender
20. Favorite thing to do at night with the opposite sex?
Snuggle
21. Have you ever found real love?
For such a simple question, it really is complicated. I think maybe I have, but I really don’t know.

40. What famous person would you like to have dinner with?
David Bowie, I would enjoy looking at him and talking to him about his music, movies, inspiration and his take on life.

Outdoors, just not when it is cold!
42. Have you ever crashed a car or truck?
yes, I have to say I have
43. Have you ever had to use a fire extinguisher for its actual purpose?
Never..
44. Last book you read for real?
I just finished a Patricia Cornwell book, before that was Shadow of the Wind, and now I am reading Eat, Pray, Love, and it is GREAT!
45. Do you have a teddy bear?
Not anymore, I gave it to Megan, who, as it turns out, does not get attached to things, so it’s laying in a box somewhere.
46. Strangest place you have ever brushed your teeth?
on the back of a boat, in my swimmers, in the middle of the Atlantic, with two week old, stale water from the boats water tanks, my other choice was to dip my toothbrush in the ocean!
47. Somewhere in California you've never been and would like to go?
Hiking in the Sierra Nevada, I hear it is really beautiful
48. Do you go to church?
not any more, I just don’t believe you find God in a building, through a man paid to tell who and what God is, and telling you to “donate” your money to prove your love of God. God is all around, in the eyes of your family and friends, in the architecture of both nature and man, in art and music, in the bottle of wine and the food you prepared to enjoy with good company. God is the love you feel for the good times, and sorrow you feel for the sad times. When you feel, that is God.
49. Can you keep secrets?
yeah, just not about me.
50. Have you ever told someone a HUGE secret?
I don’t think I have ever heard a huge secret, what could be such a huge secret?

I know you. I'm sorry to hear that you aren't going to church anymore. Your testimony is such a powerful one. I hope that it is still close to your heart Sioux. It brought you such peace and was such an inspiration to many people. Me included. :)
