65 things about me.....

I got this from Soul and also from Smocha…..and thought I’d give it a try and also let you have a peek into the boring life of a senior citizen.

65 things about me.

2. What color is your favorite hoodie? brown and I can’t find it.
3. Would you kiss the last person you kissed again? Yes,if I could remember who it was.

10. Do you floss? When I feel the need, yes I do.

13. Have you ever counted to 1,000? I honestly don’t ever remember doing that.
14. Do you bite into your ice cream or just lick it? I lick it. And if its in a bowl, I will stir it up so it resembles pudding.
15. Do you like your hair? Approximately 2 weeks after its cut, it looks great for about 4 days and I really do like it then.
16. Do you like yourself? Yes I do. I’m a good person who is a loyal friend.

18. What are you listening to right now? The rain falling on my roof.
19. Are your parents strict? My mom was and my dad followed her lead.
20. Would you go sky diving? I’m terrified of heights. Just going up the steps into the plane would make me pee.

26. Have you made a prank phone call? Oh lord….yes, when young and dumb.
27. Ever been on a train? Oh yes…several times. I LOVE trains.

41. Do you have any tattoos? Lord no....too squeamish.
42. Are you sarcastic? Wouldn’t dream of it.
43. Have you ever seen The Butterfly Effect? Yes. Its one of those “play with your mind” movies. I have to be in the mood for those.
44. Ever walked into a wall? Actually, the wall walked into ME.
45. Favorite color? Almost all shades of blue
46. Have you ever slapped someone? Yes I have.
47. Is your hair curly? Freshly washed, no. After a couple days of hairspray, yes.
48. What was the last CD you bought? Seal
49. Do looks matter? Something has to grab your attention in the first place…for me, its more CHARM and just having a kindness….or an irresistible way other than being a pretty face and hot bod.
50. Could you ever forgive a cheater? I have…. only to find out that there seems to be no cure and they will commit the dirty deed again and again. They get their addictive ‘high’ on the risk of being caught.
51. Is your phone bill sky high? Its higher than I’d like it to be and I rarely call long distance.
52. Do you like your life right now? I’m disappointed in my life right now because of my arthritis pain but, considering the only other option, I’ll take it.
53. Do you sleep with the TV on? No, I like a quiet house.
54. Can you handle the truth? Yes, because I just sort of instinctively know when I’m being lied to and that makes me furious.
55. Do you have good vision? Not without help from my contacts. If we lived back in the Neanderthal era, I’d be dinner cause I’d never see the threat coming.
56. Do you hate or dislike more than 3 people? Hate is an emotion I do not have…however there are a couple people that I just plain don’t like.

58. The last person you held hands with? My granddaughter.
59. What are you wearing? A Scooby Do nightshirt. I just have sex kitten written all over me, don’t I?
60. What is your favorite animal? I’m partial to dogs but I love cats and birds too.
61. Where was your default picture taken? In my kitchen.
62. Can you hula hoop? I never could master that and it was a huge crush to my ego, which I’m certain had an effect on my inability to make mega millions.
63. Do you have a job? I retired from my full time job and now work part time in the same building.
64. What was the most recent thing you bought? Flowers for my cyber friend’s funeral.
65. Have you ever crawled through a window? Yes but not in many many years…..the reason for doing so seems to have conveniently slipped my mind.

There you have it....exciting right? LOL

One thing I've discovered is that children answer a lot of questions with "I don't know"; mobsters answer with "taking the Fifth"; and seniors answer with "I don't remember".... which is true most of the time. Usually, though, all three have something to hide when those answers are given. Never trust a senior with perfect memory.
