<p>1. Do you like blue cheese salad dressing?<br />
&#8211; No.</p>
<p>2. Favorite late night snack?<br />
&#8211; Mashed potatoes.  And beer.</p>
<p>3. Do you own a gun?<br />
&#8211; No.</p>
<p>4. What’s your favorite drink at Starbucks or other specialty coffee shop?<br />
&#8211; Here in Canuckia, it&#8217;s <strong>Tim&#8217;s</strong>, and it&#8217;s either a black coffee, or an English Toffee something-or-other.</p>
<p>5. Do you get nervous before doctor appointments?<br />
&#8211; Not anymore.</p>
<p>6. What do you think of hot dogs?<br />
&#8211; I try not to think of them, or it puts me off them.  Have eaten them.  Will most likely eat them again.</p>
<p>7. Favorite Christmas song?<br />
&#8211; Gramma Got Run Over by a Reindeer.</p>
<p>8. What do you prefer to drink in the morning?<br />
&#8211; I wish I had the nerve to say beer.  It&#8217;s coffee, though.</p>
<p>9. Can you do push-ups?<br />
&#8211; I <em>can</em>&#8230;  but <em>will</em> I?  HA!</p>
<p>10. What’s your favorite piece of jewelry?<br />
&#8211; It&#8217;s a toss-up between my Grandmother&#8217;s little silver &#8220;broach-watch&#8221; thingy, or <a href="http://lesbecker.com/LesBlog/category/waaaaay-back/the-father-chronicles/" >my father</a>&#8217;s wristwatch.  I wear neither of them, though.  Or any other jewelry of any other kind, for that matter.</p>
<p>11. Favorite hobby?<br />
&#8211; <a href="http://lesbecker.com/PhotoPlay/"target="_blank">Digital Photography</a>.</p>
<p>12. Do you have A.D.D.?<br />
&#8211; Probably.</p>
<p>13. What’s one trait that you hate about yourself?<br />
&#8211; I procrastinate.  A lot.  I probably stole this meme weeks ago.</p>
<p>14. The last disease you contracted?<br />
&#8211; Wrinkles.</p>
<p>15. Name 3 thoughts at this exact moment.<br />
&#8211; I can&#8217;t possibly be expected to untangle THREE of them considering I might have A.D.D.</p>
<p>16. Name 3 drinks you regularly drink?<br />
&#8211; Coffee, coffee and beer.  Although &#8216;regular&#8217; on beer has become more &#8216;few and far between&#8217;.  And that&#8217;s a shame, if ever there was one.</p>
<p>17. Current worry right now?<br />
&#8211; None.  I refuse.</p>
<p>18. Current hate right now?<br />
&#8211; See above.</p>
<p>19. Favorite place to be?<br />
&#8211; I haven&#8217;t been ANYPLACE, yet.  I&#8217;ll have to do something about that.</p>
<p>20. How did you ring in the New Year?<br />
&#8211; I seriously cannot remember.</p>

&#8211; No.</p>
<p>23. Do you own slippers?<br />
&#8211; Yes, I do.</p>
<p>24. What color shirt are you wearing?<br />
&#8211; Black.</p>
<p>25. Do you like sleeping on satin sheets?<br />
&#8211; Haven&#8217;t the foggiest.  Probably not.</p>
<p>26. Can you whistle?<br />
&#8211; Can so.</p>
<p>27. Favorite singer/band?<br />
&#8211; Impossible to attempt to decide.</p>
<p>28. Could you ever make it 39 days on the show Survivor?<br />
&#8211; I&#8217;ll betcha I could.  But what the hell for?!</p>
<p>29. What songs do you sing in the shower?<br />
&#8211; I don&#8217;t.  <a href="http://lesbecker.com/LesBlog/the-glossary-of-the-re-named/#Kyla"  target='_blank' >The Idiot Child</a> does though.  And in the sauna.  And in the &#8220;bathroom&#8221;. And in her sleep sometimes.</p>
<p>30. Favorite girl’s names?<br />
&#8211; <a href="http://lesbecker.com/LesBlog/the-glossary-of-the-re-named/#Kyla" target='_blank'>Kyla</a>.</p>
<p>31. Favorite boy’s names?<br />
&#8211; Hmmmmm&#8230;. Matthew for my father, maybe?</p>
<p>32. What’s in your pocket right now?<br />
&#8211; Nothing right now, but a few seconds ago there was a hand in there!</p>
<p>33. Last thing that made you laugh?<br />
&#8211; How fast <em>&#8220;Hand in My Pocket&#8221;</em> started playing in my head after I typed the above answer.</p>
<p>34. Like your job?<br />
&#8211; I do.</p>
<p>36. Do you love where you live?<br />
&#8211; If you mean my apartment &#8211; yes.  If you mean this town &#8211; not like I once did.</p>
<p>37. How many TVs do you have in your house?<br />
&#8211; 1</p>
<p>38. Who is your loudest friend?<br />
&#8211; &#8220;Real Life&#8221; friends &#8211; <a href="http://lesbecker.com/LesBlog/2007/12/09/neglected/" >The Fly-Girl</a>.  &#8220;Imaginary Friends&#8221;, as my mom calls anybody I know online, I haven&#8217;t a clue yet.  But it&#8217;s probably <a href="http://www.suzannemcdonough.com/" target='_blank'>Suzi</a>.  <img src='http://lesbecker.com/LesBlog/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_biggrin.gif' alt=':-D' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>39. Do you drive the speed limit or speed?<br />
&#8211; I always drive the speed limit.  Unless I think <a href="http://lesbecker.com/LesBlog/2008/11/07/guess-what-i-found-on-the-dance-floor/">I might have cocaine in my pockets</a>.</p>
<p>40. Does someone have a crush on you?<br />
&#8211; If so, I hope it&#8217;s a movie producer in need of new scripts&#8230;</p>
<p>41. What is your favorite book?<br />
&#8211; Can&#8217;t say&#8230; too many.  I like anything by Madeline L&#8217;engle.  Or Douglas Adams.  Or Robert Heinlein.</p>
<p>42. What is your favorite candy?<br />
&#8211; Just gimme the candy.</p>
<p>43. Favorite Sports Team?<br />
&#8211; At one time, it was the Edmonton Oilers, but then Wayne defected.</p>
<p>44. What were you doing 12 AM last night?<br />
&#8211; Dancing in the parking lot.</p>
<p>45. What was the first thing you thought of when you woke up today?<br />
&#8211; I haven&#8217;t yet woken up today.</p>
<p>So, steal it if you want it.  <img src='http://lesbecker.com/LesBlog/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_biggrin.gif' alt=':-D' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
