Memes as a form of cat vacuuming

   Dan nicked this from Skatje, and since I don't have an original thought in my head, I nicked it from him. Do feel free to show your own knickers...wait...I don't think that's exactly what I meant to say.

1. When you looked at yourself in the mirror today, what was the first thing you thought?
    I haven't looked at myself in the mirror today. Should I? 

2. How much cash do you have on you?
    Zip, zilch, nada... 

3. What’s a word that rhymes with DOOR?
    Floor.

4. Favorite planet?
    I was going to say Pluto, but...

5. Who is the 4th person on your missed call list on your cell phone?
    I don't get that many calls. There's only one number on my missed calls list, and it was me, testing my son's cell phone.

6. What is your favorite ring tone on your phone?
    Ring, ring.

7. What shirt are you wearing?
    What, would you recognise it if I told you? Clearly, this meme was created by high school kids who intimately know each other's wardrobes. Feel free to leave this one out if you nick yourself. I mean...oh, hell, you know what I mean.

8. Do you label yourself?
    Yes: "No returns or exchanges"

9. Name the brand of the shoes you’re currently wearing?
    Socks. (Dan's answer, and I have to agree. Once again we come up against the teen meme phenomenon. If I wear my shoes in the house, I sleep on the couch for a night or two.) 

10. Bright or Dark Room?
    Bright. I think I have SAD.

11. What do you think about the person who took this survey before you?
    He's from Milwaukee. 'Nuff said. 

12. What does your watch look like?
    What do you expect me to say, "it looks like a sailboat?" It looks like a frickin' watch. 

13. What were you doing at midnight last night?
    Downloading porn. Go read Dan's answer, and then laugh at him. He was downloading porn, too.

14. What did your last text message you received on your cell say?
    I have never received a text message on my phone. Nor have I any desire to do so. Got something to say to me? Call me and say it out loud.

15. Where is your nearest 7-11?
    Good question. Do we have any 7-11s in Canada?

16. What’s a word that you say a lot?
    Chickens.

17. Who told you he/she loved you last?
    My wife. :D

18. Last furry thing you touched?
    My cat. (You thought I was going to say, "my wife" again, didn't you. I'm not that stupid.)

19. How many drugs have you done in the last three days?
    Popped a couple Tylenols this morning. Does alcohol count? 

20. How many rolls of film do you need developed?
    Last I looked,there was still an old roll of 120 in my antique Baby Brownie. I think it's been over a decade at least since I last played with it.

21. Favorite age you have been so far?
    Hoo, boy. In two months, I will be "the answer." So that's my answer. 

22. Your worst enemy?
    Myself. (Yeah, I gotta stick with Dan on this one, too.)

23. What is your current desktop picture?
    Up until this morning it was a picture of Santa Claus. I just changed it to this. 

24. What was the last thing you said to someone?
    Beautiful!

25. If you had to choose between a million bucks or to be able to fly what would it be?
    If by flying, you mean that silly cross legged bouncing the TM people do, I'll take the cash. If you meant the kind of flying Superman does...I'll still take the cash. Unless, you know, I could have his X-ray vision, too. That would be cool.

26. Do you like someone?
    Definitely. (I'd be pretty worried about anyone who answered this question in the negative. Yes, I know the kids mean something else when they ask.)

27. The last song you listened to?
    "Headspin" - Supernova.

28. What time of day were you born?
    Probably early morning. That seems to be pretty common. Don't feel like calling my Mom and asking. 

29. What’s your favorite number?
    I am not a number. I am a free man!

30. Where did you live in 1997?
    Here.

31. Are you jealous of anyone?
    Nah. Jealousy is for babies. 

32. Is anyone jealous of you?
    Couldn't tell you. I rather doubt it, though. If I were someone else, and I were jealous of me, I'd be pretty pathetic.

33. Where were you when 9/11 happened?
    On my way to, and then at work.   

34. What do you do when vending machines steal your money?
    I can't remember the last time I used a vending machine. You see, because I don't eat in high school cafeterias anymore. 

35. Do you consider yourself kind?
    Yes. If you disagree, go f--- yourself.

36. If you had to get a tattoo, where would it be?
    Why would I have to get a tattoo? That doesn't make any sense. I suspect if someone was going to force me to get a tattoo, I would have precious little input on its location.

37. If you could be fluent in any other language, what would it be?
    Italian. Screw the French.

38. Would you move for the person you loved?
    Without a second thought.

39. Are you touchy feely?
    Yeah, pretty much. 

40. What’s your life motto?
    "It's better than the alternative."

41. Name three things that you have on you at all times?
    ?

42. What’s your favourite town/city?
    Rome, Italy. 

43. What was the last thing you paid for with cash?
    Parking at the airport.

44. When was the last time you wrote a letter to someone on paper and mailed it?
    Last week. It was attached to a Christmas gift that will arrive quite late. 

45. Can you change the oil on a car?
     I've never tried before, but it can't be all that hard, given the appropriate tools. (No, I don't mean those guys in the pit at the Jiffy Lube.)

46. Your first love: what is the last thing you heard about him/her?
    Haven't heard tell of her for over a decade. She was getting married then, I think. No idea how that turned out, nor do I ever wonder.

47. How far back do you know about your ancestry?
    I only have direct knowledge about my parents' grandparents. An uncle of mine has done a significant amount of research about my father's side of the family, even going so far as to prowl cemeteries in Scotland for clues. One day I should ask him what he has found out. 

48. The last time you dressed fancy, what did you wear and why did you dress fancy?
    Wore a suit to accompany my wife to a business Christmas party a couple of weeks ago.

49. Does anything hurt on your body right now?
    Got a bit of a headache. Could be caffeine withdrawal.

50. Have you been burned by love?
    Hasn't everyone? If you answered, "no" to that question, I can only say, "you will be. You will be."
