--------------------------------------

1. Have you ever hit an animal with your vehicle?

Oh my gosh...I saw this question and immediately thought "YES!!"...not that, you know...I hunt down animals and kill them with my car.

It seems more like...well...like they hunt down my car and throw themselves beneath it.

The first time it was a cat. I was a young driver...and it totally freaked me out! It didn't die, so we scooped up this poor cat and drove it to the police station (I know, what were we thinking?!!).

They wanted nothing to do with it.

Nothing.

So, we headed back to where I hit it (and I say "we" 'cuz I had a coupla friends with me...) and we made the "boy" in the car go door to door to see if anyone had a cat that was missing.

No one did.

We then made that poor boy put the cat out of it's misery. And, I don't think he's ever been the same since.

Poor boy.

Poor cat.

Next up? A dog.

A dog that was the size of a semi-truck...I swear! Black as night...and the night was black too, didn't see the darn thing 'til it turned it's head and BAM, there were the eyes...but too late.

That dog was old...and technically, I didn't hit it...the Mr. was driving...but, a bit traumatic nonetheless...'specially when I saw the sheer size of the thing (shmucked up our van, too!).

And, lastly...was a deer. Did our van in good that time (photo here). That was the hunting season my hubby got skunked...I teased him incessantly that I was the one who got a deer that year (never found it, tho...).

2. When you see a string on your clothes do you pull it off or cut if off?

Will you laugh if I tell you it depends on the clothes?

'Cuz it totally does!

I mean, if it's my ratty ol' college sweatshirt...yup.

But, if it's a fancy new pair of jammies like I just picked up at my (still) favorite store, aerie, nope. Not gonna pull it!

I'd tie it off, then snip it all nice and tidy like.

3. Did you have your own room or share a room when you were young?

Well...I've gotta admit.

I was the princess of the family...the only girl amongst four children. So, yup...had my own room always!

And, my parents let me do all up in purple. Not a fun, funky purple...but, lavender. For real, I even had lavender carpet (which proves my parents are way nicer than me, 'cuz no kid of mine's puttin' purple carpet in their room! Paint? Maybe. Carpet? Heck no!)

I hafta say, there were many, many perks to being an only girl!

But, one big drawback.

I never had a sister. And that makes me kinda sad...

4. Would you rather wear the same thing for the rest of your life or eat the same thing for the rest of your life?

Seriously, Lisa P.? I hafta choose?!!!

Um...ah...well. Let's see.

I think I'd rather wear the same thing for the rest of my life. I love to eat.

I love to eat lot's of different things...all the time. Everyday.

Always and forever, amen.

Oh...oh...but I love to wear cute stuff! And cute jammies, and cute shoes, and cute jackets!

Arrrrggghhhhh!! You're killin' me!

I can't take it...

I plead the Fifth.

5. What was your favorite TV show as a child?

Oh...okay...hold on a sec while I dig deep into the recesses of my brain to try to remember.

Alright! I'm back now! Sorry to have kept you waiting!

Okay, so...here's what I came up with..."Smurfs"..."Roadrunner"..."Saved by the Bell" (A.C Slater was sooooo dreamy...)...and then, of course, there was "90210", that I lived for as an "older" child (and, folks...I'm talkin' the real 90210...the original, not this new-fangled one!)

And, yes...I know that was plural TV shows...but I have a hard time making decisions...and besides, I didn't want to discriminate! I mean...gosh! How would Wile E. feel if he knew I picked the Papa Smurf over him? And, the SBTB crew? They might be devastated if they knew I chose those 90210 rich kids...

See my dilema? No? Oh...well then...ahem. Sorry.
