01) Are you currently in a serious relationship?
If you consider marriage serious, sure :)
02) What was your dream growing up?
To be a veterinarian.
03) What talent do you wish you had?
Hmm.... define talent. There's super power like talent: being able to snap my fingers and have things clean because I hate living in a dirty house but hate cleaning the house even more. There's ability talent which would be patience (I have none). And then there's talent like hobby/aptitude, which I guess I would say public speaking- then maybe it would be possible for me to be in politics.
04) If I bought you a drink what would it be?
Frozen raspberry margarita with a sugar rim
05) Favorite vegetable?
Umm, I don't love vegetables, but artichokes are pretty good.
06) What was the last book you read?
"Come on people" by Bill Cosby.
07) What zodiac sign are you?
Cancer
08) Any Tattoos and/or Piercings? Explain where.
Just ears. I am too big of a wimp for tattoos.
09) Worst Habit?
Biting nails.
10) If you saw me walking down the street would you offer me a ride?
That depends. Do I know you? If so, then of course I would pick you up. If this is some hypothetical where if I just saw you and hadn't met you, I probably wouldn't because I'm not in the habit of picking up strangers no matter how friendly they look :)
11) What is your favorite sport?
Football and gymnastics. Hey gymnastics might be an interesting talent to have. But I'm sort of tall for that.
12) Do you have a pessimistic or optimistic attitude?
Depends on the day.
13) What would you do if you were stuck in an elevator with me?
Chat, maybe play euchre if one of had cards, try not to freak out about being stuck in an elevator.
14) Worst thing to ever happen to you?
Losing my grandfather.
15) Tell me one weird fact about you.
I eat the breading but take the onion out of the onion ring (and do not eat the onion).
16) Do you have any pets?
Pets? I have a zoo.
17) What if I showed up at your house unexpectedly?
Let you in, but be really embarrassed at how messy this place is.
18) What was your first impression of me?
Honestly I have no idea. My memory isn't that good.
19) Do you think clowns are cute or scary?
Hmmm, depends on the clown.
20) If you could change one thing about how you look, what would it be?
Be skinnier.
21) Would you be my partner in crime or my conscience?
I'd have to be the conscience now. I want to be a prosecutor, so partner in crime is probably not the best option :) Plus I've always been sort of a goody goody.
22) What color eyes do you have?
Brown
23) Ever been arrested?
No.
24) Bottle or can soda?
Bottle if it's a 16 oz... but not out of a 2-liter if it's been open for more than an hour or two. Soda gets flat too fast. Cans are good too.
25) If you won $10,000 today, what would you do with it?
Pay off my credit card. Save some money for a vacation. Buy some sweaters from lands end.
27) What's your favorite place to hang out?
At home on the couch. I'm old.
28) Do you believe in ghosts?
Not really.
29) Favorite thing to do in your spare time?
Laze around the house, hang out with friends... I need a balance of the two otherwise I go crazy.
30) Do you swear a lot?
Not unless I am around other people who do.
31) Biggest pet peeve?
Racism. Or if you are looking for something less serious, people who think they are drummers and tap on random stuff.
32) In one word, how would you describe yourself?
Determined
33) Do you believe/appreciate romance?
Sure I guess.
34) Favourite and least favourite food?
Least favorite is easy- onion! As for favorite... there's a lot, I like food. Maybe white chocolate fondue from melting pot.
35) Do you believe in God?
Undecided
36) Will you repost this so I can fill it out and do the same for you?
Well I already did and you already responded so I don't think I will post it again.

01) Are you currently in a serious relationship?
Sure are

02) What was your dream growing up?
My first career goal was to be a scientist or an inventor. My first truly wistful dream was to have a friend who truly understood me (I was 9).

03) What talent do you wish you had?
I wish I could sing well.

04) If I bought you a drink what would it be?
Depends on how saucy you're feeling. ;) But I'll take a strawberri daiquiri or margarita, a jack and coke, or a mojito. :)

05) Favorite vegetable?
I am a big fan of good corn. Green beans are also good.

06) What was the last book you read?
Little Brother, Cory Doctorow.

07) What zodiac sign are you?
I'm an Aquarium. ("Great, let's get tanked!")

08) Any Tattoos and/or Piercings? Explain where.
Captured bead halfway up my left ear. No tattoos yet.

09) Worst Habit?
Allowing my distractions to get the best of my day, actually.

10) If you saw me walking down the street would you offer me a ride?
No, I'd point and laugh -- of course I'd give you a ride, wherever you needed.

11) What is your favorite sport?
Badminton. Or Competitive staring.

12) Do you have a pessimistic or optimistic attitude?
Pragmatic Optimist - I think every situation has the -potential- to turn out well, but I don't anticipate it.

13) What would you do if you were stuck in an elevator with me?
Hot! No really, it gets hot in there.

I think we'd sit with our backs to the wall and make up silly stories before fashioning something McGuyverish from whatever was in our pockets. Also, we're both tall so we could probably reach the coveted Ceiling Access Panel.

14) Worst thing to ever happen to you?
Hard to say, but I'd say having my 4th grade teacher tell the other kids not to play with me was pretty psychologically destructive for a long time.

15) Tell me one weird fact about you.
Whenever I get new glasses, the first thing I always do is look at the trees after stepping outside. It's like my 'calibration'.

16) Do you have any pets?
Just Reggie. He's oregano.

17) What if I showed up at your house unexpectedly?
*waits expectantly* Ice cream time! Or is it cider mill time?

18) What was your first impression of me?
I was mightily impressed by your geek skillz. Also, you were too off-limits to consider your cuteness, so I did not. :)

19) Do you think clowns are cute or scary?
Mostly sad and lame, but occasionally scary.

20) If you could change one thing about how you look, what would it be?
I don't know how, but I would have my face match my "internal appearance". I don't know whether it would be more or less attractive, but I still look in the mirror and think, "who is that guy?"

21) Would you be my partner in crime or my conscience?
I'm sure it would be shockingly unoriginal to say "yes", so I'll just say conscience. I am not very wild these days.

22) What color eyes do you have?
Hazel, generally, but they do seem to change.

23) Ever been arrested?
Not precisely.

24) Bottle or can soda?
Fountain, please.

25) If you won $10,000 today, what would you do with it?
That's not enough to pay off student loans or to make a down payment on a house (but I'd probably save it for the latter).

27) What's your favorite place to hang out?
Some of my friends on the east side have a nice house and good kids; as a group, we all tend to gather there.

Also, Karaoke in Rochester on mondays, Hamlin Pub.

28) Do you believe in ghosts?
Not particularly.

29) Favorite thing to do in your spare time?
Intarbrowze!

30) Do you swear a lot?
Relatively little. I swear when it seems appropriate, but I generally think you can be more colorful with different, more original words.

31) Biggest pet peeve?
Man's inhumanity to man? Arrogant disdain for others? Something along those lines.

32) In one word, how would you describe yourself?
Joyful

33) Do you believe/appreciate romance?
Absolutely. I am a cream-puff.

34) Favourite and least favourite food?
Curry Chicken (chinese), Kim Chi

35) Do you believe in God?
I am a humanist - "Humanism is a broad category of ethical philosophies that affirm the dignity and worth of all people, based on the ability to determine right and wrong by appealing to universal human qualities, particularly rationality. Humanism can be considered the process by which truth and morality is sought through human investigation."

... which does not mean that I patently reject the beliefs of others, or that I "disbelieve" in God. I think whether he exists or not plays no part in how I decide to live my life, nor should it. I find humanity-based reasons for behaving well toward others.

36) Will you repost this so I can fill it out and do the same for you?

Probably not. :) If I have the energy tomorrow, I may copy it and come up with my own curiosity questions.

*muah*

You know, you probably were, too. But-- in addition to several intellectual traits, which were my main focus-- I did notice your nice butt.

*pink grin* I am oddly pleased that you started and finished your sentence with the same word. In a sense.
