Okay, so I totally stole this from TJ. Thanks for providing my mental break for my Tuesday afternoon. So here you go folks. Enjoy watching the paint dry.
Have I:
Gone on a blind date: Nope. Never.
Skipped school: High school – no. I was a goody-goody. Well for the most part anyway. College – Yep. A person can only read/debate/dissect Hamlet so many times before you want to drink the wine yourself.
Watched someone die: I guess that is the debate. Are they already dead when I get to them or do they slip away despite our best efforts. I assume I have in fact watched someone die, but it just sounds so passive. You know, like I wasn’t busting my butt to save them. Ick. I don’t like this question.
Been to Canada: Indeed. I foresee a lot of Canada in my future.
Been on a plane: Yes. Quite a bit in the last 6 months. That’s what happens with long distance relationships.
Been lost: Never lost, just taking a detour.
Been on the opposite side of the country: Well I kind of live in the middle section, but I have been to every side at one point or another.
Swam in the ocean: Yes. I tried surfing in California and ended up sicker than sick. Do not inhale ocean water. Just sayin’. AND I went snorkeling in St John. Of course I am the freakazoid that got motion sickness from snorkeling. Go figure.
Had your booze taken away by the cops: Funny story with that one. Maybe some day I will write about it. Oh, right… the answer is yes. If you hadn’t figured that one out yet.
Cried yourself to sleep: It used to be a nightly occurrence. Not so much anymore.
Recently colored with crayons: YES! I made a pretty sign complete with hearts and sent a picture to JB. I’m a dork, but he loves me.
Sang Karaoke: Never. Nor will it ever.
Paid for a meal with coins only: Two words for you… dollar.menu.
Cheated on an exam: Nope. It’s just not worth the satisfaction in passing if I didn’t pass on my own.
Laughed until some kind of beverage came out of your nose: You hang out with Will and see if YOU can keep things from flying out your nose.
Caught a snowflake on your tongue: It’s the only way to go. Less odds of ground contamination if you know what I mean.
Danced in the rain: Not really “danced” persay, but we used to run around in the yard when we were kids. Then my dad would hold our heads under the downspout and call it “Chinese Water Torture”. In fact that might be one of my favorite memories from my childhood. The running around, not the face under the downspout.
Written a letter to Santa Claus: I can’t say that I did or didn’t. I remember waiting for “Santa” at my grandparents house and watching out the window. When he arrived, I freaked the hell out and ran to the safety of my mothers lap and would not release my judo death grip until the creepy man left. Funny enough, that creepy man was my uncle. Who is still, to this day creepy. Even without the Santa costume. I was a smart child.
Been kissed under the mistletoe: No! Never. What a rip off.
Watched the sunrise with someone you care about: I’m not really a sunrise kinda person if ya know what I mean.
Been arrested: Negatory. I’m a good girl.
Blown bubbles: I love doing this with the nieces and nephews. They LOVE it and it occupies them for hours. HOURS I tell you! Well if you don’t pass out first that is.
Gone ice-skating: I grew up next to a lake. I was practically born on ice skates. Just beware the TOE PICK. (100 cool points to anyone that can identify the reference.)
Been skinny dipping outdoors: Yeah.
Favorite drink?: If we are talking non-alcoholic it’s water. But room temperature water. I hate cold water. It makes my teeth hurt. As for alcoholic – it totally depends on my mood. But I do enjoy a good Woodchuck from time to time. Nummy.
Tattoos?: I have one on the small of my back that is an ivy design and another on the inside of my left wrist of a dragonfly. I’m not sure if I want any more. I feel “complete” right now.
Piercings?: Two holes in each ear. I miss my tragus piercing like crazy, but alas it does not jive with stethoscopes so I wont have it redone. Bummer.
How much do you love your job?: Which one? My full time, sit at a desk and stare at numbers one? That one is okay. I wish a few things were different, mostly the commute but for the most part I like it. I don’t love it though. The EMT thing… of course I love it. Even if I do get tired of the drama-llamas and whatnot. Few things put a smile on my face and a spring in my step like interacting with patients. When I’m on the job, it just feels right. Like it is what I was meant to do with my life. Oh and then the massage thing… I don’t love it. Well I might if it didn’t beat me up so bad. I think I would like it a whole lot more if it was more rehab/treatment based and not all Swedish boring blah massages that are exactly the same every time.
Birthplace? It’s a secret. And you don’t get to know.
Favorite vacation spot? I can’t tell you enough how much I loved St John. So laid back and the weather was perfect. It helped that I thoroughly enjoyed the company I kept while I was there too. My mom is awesomeness. Although there is something to be said for my grandparent’s house “up north”.
Ever been to Africa?: No, never.
Ever been on TV?: Yep. I was screaming bloody murder for a scenario. They didn’t use the audio though… I wonder why.
Ever been in a car accident?: Yes. One when I was 17 that has absolutely no bearing on my memory or lack thereof (love you babe!) but did produce some nasty scars (that only I see at this point) and another a few years later when I t-boned a cop. Again, a story for another day.
Favorite movie?: I love so many movies it’s ridiculous, but you really can’t go wrong with Princess Bride, Robin Hood: Men in Tights, Hope Floats, Big Fish and just about any Julia Roberts movie ever made.
Favorite holiday?: Christmas. My favorite thing ever is buying presents for other people.
Favorite food?: Have I ever mentioned I’m a mood-driven person? Ask me this tomorrow and you will get a different answer. Today… I want sushi. Bad.
Favorite flower?: Lilacs. I LOVE LOVE LOVE lilacs. The deeper the purple, the more I love them. And yellow roses because they are bright and happy and out of the ordinary. Oh and coral roses because they remind me of my cousin.
Favorite smells?: The ocean. Lilacs. Summer (a mixture of grass, flowers, fresh air and food grilling), the smell right after it snows and it is freezing cold outside… I could go on for days.
What do you do to relax? Write, run, sleep, draw, clean…

First thing you notice about the opposite sex?: Their smile and how they carry themselves. And eyes. I love it when you can see the smile in their eyes.
One favorite song?: Ra’s version of Every little thing she does is magic. It makes me giggle.

Longest job you’ve had: It’s either this one at just short of 5 years or my “job” as an EMT at just about 7 years.

Thing you dislike most about yourself: See above.

Can you sing?: I don’t know if you would refer to what I do as singing. But I still do it. HA!
Last concert you attended?: Shinedown.
