Another questionnaire thing

SINGLE OR TAKEN: single

EYE COLOR: blue-grey, but they change depending on what my mood is, & what I'm wearing

SHOE SIZE: Why, are you going to buy me some shoes?

HEIGHT: 5'4'

RIGHTY OR LEFTY: righty, although I play pool left handed

CAN YOU MAKE A DOLLAR IN CHANGE RIGHT NOW: nope

__________________________________________________________________

HAVE YOU EVER...

GIVEN ANYONE A BATH: Hm, no, but it could be fun! (Yup, I have a dirty mind, I know!)

BUNGEE JUMPED: not yet

SKINNY DIPPED: yes

LOVED SOMEONE SO MUCH IT MADE YOU CRY: Hasn't everyone?

BROKEN A BONE: no

PLAYED TRUTH OR DARE: yes

BEEN IN A PHYSICAL FIGHT: no

BEEN ON A PLANE: yes

CAME CLOSE TO DYING: Yes, more than once.

RAN AWAY: From home, or from my problems? Well, either way, it's yes.

BROKEN SOMEONE'S HEART: Unfortunately, yes

CRIED WHEN SOMEONE DIED: Since I'm not heartless, yes

FELL OFF YOUR CHAIR: *laughs* Okay, this is a random question. I'm sure that I have at some point when I was drunk.

SAT BY THE PHONE ALL NIGHT WAITING FOR SOMEONE TO CALL: Not for many years. I have a life, and lots of things to keep me busy. If some one doesn't call with in a reasonable time frame of when they say they will, I'm not going to put my entire life on hold for them.

SAVED AIM CONVERSATIONS: Yeah. That's one of the reasons I love gmail. It automatically archives everything for me. :)

MADE OUT WITH JUST A FRIEND: Not if I didn't already have more than friendly feelings toward him.

USED SOMEONE: No, I don't think so. I'm too independent and stubborn for that. Plus, it's a rotten thing to do!

BEEN CHEATED ON: Yes I have.

__________________________________________________________________

DO YOU...

BELIEVE IN LOVE AT FIRST SIGHT: Kind of? I believe in recognition of some one who you have known and loved before, in a previous life.

BELIEVE IN LONG DISTANT RELATIONSHIPS: I suppose it could work. I think that it depends on how long the distance is, how often you get to see each other, and how close you were before it became a long distance relationship. It certainly makes it a hell of a lot more difficult. Of course, that being said, one of my very dearest friends lives literally half way around the world, and I have yet to meet her in person.

LIKE SCHOOL: I love learning anything new, but I wasn't so fond of school.

QUESTION YOURSELF: No more than any one else. Probably less than many people.

HAVE A LAVA LAMP: Nope.

__________________________________________________________________

WAS THE LAST PERSON THAT CALLED YOU: Jason

MAKES YOU SMILE THE MOST: My cat. These people also make me smile a lot - Bev, Tiff, Jason, Irene, Leni & Trevor.

KNOWS YOU THE BEST: Tiff, Patience, Bev and Kyle

WAS THE LAST PERSON WHO SAW/HEARD YOU CRY: It's been a while since any one has seen me cry. Kyle probably, or maybe Bev.

WAS THE LAST PERSON WHO MADE YOU CRY: Kyle, and some one who I mistakenly thought was a better friend than she was.

__________________________________________________________________

FINAL QUESTIONS:

WHAT DID YOU DO YESTERDAY: Went to work, went to the gym, goofed off on line for a bit.

WHAT CAR/TRUCK DO YOU WISH TO HAVE: Well, I wouldn't kick a BMW 507 out of my driveway! Look at the lines on that thing! It's one sexy car.

The laundry room!

Okay, for those of you who have expressed concern, or mere curiosity over my current living arrangement, here is my bedroom/ the laundry room. As you can see, it's really not so bad, is it? I realized how frightfully bear the walls are after taking these. I'm in the process of fixing that now. *smiles* We'll go around the room clockwise, from the door leading into the kitchen.

This is what you see as you first walk into my room. Yup, it's my bed!

Moving right along, this is the foot of my bed! (Pretty exciting stuff, huh?) And the door leading outside.

Next we have my desk, and my window. There's not much to see out there. And even if there was, Mike's Charger is usually in the way. *laugh*

What does the top of my desk look like you ask? Well, that's an easy question to answer.

And yes, the drawers are just as clean as the top is!

And here are the infamous washer & drier. Oh, the horror! (And also, most of my clothes!)

Now we're around to the area more or less behind the kitchen door. Here's my dresser-

Here's a better look at the top of it! And those aren't toys, they're collectible figurines, dammit! *laughs*

Here's the bit I know that you've all been waiting for- my primary bookcase! (I have two more tall ones, but they're in the living room.)

And because I know you want to know what's on my bookcase, here are some better shots of it.

That's it on your tour of my room. I hope that you enjoyed it, and now feel more assured that isn't nearly the dank hovel that some of you had apparently been imagining it was!
