Yea, same thing
9) Ever Been So Drunk You Blacked Out: nope, and i never plan to be.
I've been pretty drunk, and after looking up 'black out' on Wikipedia, I know I've never had an 'en bloc' blackout, but I donno about 'fragmentary' blackouts - it says you don't know you're missing memories until prompted, and I usually just can't remember bits and pieces and details, but remember most of everything
10) Missed School Because It Was Raining: no, but i did miss school once because the water boiler exploded. we were out of school for like two days. very nice <- same
No, I still haven't missed school for rain.. but ice and snow since then, yes!
11) Set Any Body Part On Fire For Amusement: i once pulled out a few strands of my hair and burned it, but it wasnt attached to my body (i'm not a complete idiot), so does it count?

I am a sentimental dictator

Eh, not so much. Tho my current physics teacher is pretty awesome. He's polish, and I can totally imagine him breaking down a front door with a German shephard in WWII uniform
17) Ever Thought An Animated character was hot: er. no.
Part of me wants to say I was totally lying back then, but I can't think of any possibilities for what it might have been, so oh well. And not since then, no.
18) Ever Prank Called Someone: yes, in 7th grade. then caller id became wide-spread.
Yea, I started and stopped prank calls in 7th grade. I don't even think I've prank e-mailed
19) Deodorant: arrid powder fresh
Dove Cucumber Fresh. Arrid stopped making the girl-scents easy available, and I don't like the guy smells

30) Who is the smartest: DUH kathy and aj. and prolly chris too. and tri. and sean. DAMN i need to stop hanging out with smart people. talk about how to feel stupid.
Hm, as time goes by, everyone gets more and more specialized, so it's hard to say

33) Been Mean: i am so. so. evily mean.
Indeed!

47) The Big Bang Theory: how about god created the big bang? why cant we mix the two. i never understood that.

morningtime. But.. many, many times between now and 2004
51) What is right next 2 you: blanket to the left of me, pillow on the right. and i'm, stuck in the middle with my computer. stuck in the middle with my computer. well it started out as nothing and you're proud that you're a self-made - ok. shutting up with the singing now.
Um... actually.. same two things.. except the pillow is on the left, the blanket on the right.. kind of creepy
52) What Is Your Computer Desk Made Of? i have no computer desk right now, just a lovely mattress. so... mattress-making stuff.
Still no computer desk (at least not right here) I have my laptop on a little wheely-table
53) What Are The Last 4 Digits In You Phone: i have no fingers or toes in my phone.

58) How's The Weather Right Now: well, being as it's night time.. it's dusky. that's what happens when you're this far north. sun'll be up soon, dont worry. it's almost midnight after all. being that i'm in aberdeen.. my bets are on it being cloudy.
Cloudy once more. Except I'm in Texas, and the temperature has dropped 31 degrees in the last 24 hours!
59) Have You Ever Smoked Pot: nah
No, and I probably never will. While I'm not really against pot, breathing smoke and shit into your lungs is not good for you. And recent studies have shown pot may actually cause more damage because people tend to hold the breath longer.
60) Do You Eat Oreos: i did, but my mom banned them because they have trans-fats and partially hydrogenated soybean oil, so now i eat organic oreos. they're actually pretty good, though.

Oh so many!

Sean or Tobias (then I could call him Toby - how cute!) maybe
68) Daughter's Name Will Be: alyssia and anakara maybe. i really like anakara. came to me in a dream. seriously.
Anakara maybe, Svara maybe - or would it be too weird to give my daughter the same name as a cat I had?
70) Do You Like Scary Or Happy Movies? depends what mood i'm in
I don't do well in scary movies - I get freaked out too easily, and I hate tension/surprises
71) Do You Like Talking To People On The phone or in person? 99.9% in person
Depends on what I've got to say - it's easier to keep it short on the phone (if you're in a hurry, are tired, etc), but I usually prefer in person
72) Lust Or Love? love
Both!
73) Do You Consider Cheerleading A Sport: do you consider ballet a sport? or swing dancing? i dont think that 'exherting and sometimes competative' is all it takes to be a sport. not saying it's not either of the above.. i just think 'sport' is a different catagory.
I was thinking about this old argument the other day. It's not a sport - it's dancing. And like lots of dancing, it's quite tiring, and you can do competitions.
74) Do You Want Your Friends To Do This And Send it back: i will make up a hit list if they dont.
I just hope I maybe inspire some people to look back at their own old questions and see how they've changed

40 minutes or so.. but I'm also watching TV

I still don't like them
78) What's the best flavor of tic-tac? orangee!!
Yey!
79) What's your favorite language you can't speak? norweigen or gaelic
Norwegian
80) Dyfunctional family?: my dad cheated on my mom, my mom does crack, and my sister is a whore. ok, not really. but yes, i have a very, very dysfunctional family.
You know, I can't even make a joke about this anymore, because almost anything I say is true. So. yea, pretty much.
81) Anything to do: 1)post this 2) sleep 3) get up 4) buy wellys (rubber boots) 5)go back to cottage
Post this, write intro to post, eat dessert, eat some dinner sometime, maybe read some bio or neuro
82) Favorite Sports?: british football (soccer)

83) Who are your closest friends?: lots of people, but aj, my girls, and gentry deserve a shoutout
