What's your sign?
Stop. What's yours?
Are you busy tonight at 3:00 A.M.?
3AM is the morning. And, yes, I am.
Where have you been all my life?
Standing next to you, baby. The fact that you haven't seen me leads me to believe you're blind and stupid.
Do you have a bf/gf, wife or husband?
Yep. All of the above. Why? Do you want to fuck them too?
Show us something cheesy.

What types of physical activity do you get on a daily basis?
Besides sex? I walk the dogs most days, spend my days in a building as long as a football field where my desk is at one end and the loo is at the other; I used to bicycle fairly frequently (though not recently), and I get out on my rollerblades occasionally.
Do you take any kind of vitamin supplement?
Occasionally a multi, often a cranberry pill, occasionally a C and an E.
What is your favorite healthy snack?
I have no idea.
What is the one food you feel guilty eating?
I don't. There's little I feel guilty about in my life at all. Why would I feel guilty about food?
Show us something taken care of.
Can't. He's swimmin wit da fishes.

When grilling, what type of grill do you prefer? Gas, charcoal, etc...
Does it cook my food? Then I don't care. But I do own one of the little Weber Smokey Joe grills that uses charcoal.
Are you planing any vacations this summer?
Went to London for a weekend. Going to Phila in September. Nothing more than that.
Do you tan or burn?
Burn, then tan and freckle.
What's your favorite summer pastime?
Up north, beach or riding my bicycle. Down here in FL, anything indoors. Though I still ride my bicycle and skate.
Show us a beach.

What's something you have a lot of?
Well, as someone who just purged a lot of the stuff I had, I wouldn't say, by US standards, that I have a lot of anything. By world standards, I have a lot of everything.
What's something you need more of?
time. always time.
How do you feel about shopping?
I enjoy it quite a bit.
Have you ever won anything?
money in a casino, occasional door prizes
Show us something you bought recently.

Where do you see yourself in 5 years?
What is this an interview? I have no idea. Hopefully divorced at the very least.
What are some goals you set for yourself?
I don't have long term goals. Keeping a roof over my head, divorcing my husband, selling the house. Other than that? Nope.
Do you lean better by hands on, or from books?
Depends on what I'm learning. I'm actually an auditory learner, so I need to hear it and then speak it to learn it best. It's why I enjoy teaching so much.
What do you wish you could do better at?
Writing. Drawing. Listening to my inner censor.
Show us something done.

Because I'm in presentations all day tomorrow, here's this week's Friday 5:

How many times have you moved in your lifetime?
12. Different metropolitan areas? 3
If you could live anywhere in the world, where would you go?
I have no idea. It depends on so many things.
Do you own or rent your home?
Both. I own the house my not-soon-enough-ex lives in but rent the home I live in. The one I own is for sale if anyone's interested.
What is the furthest distance you have moved?
1st huge move: Philadelphia to Seattle (approx distance 2900 miles)
2nd huge move: Seattle to Clearwater (approx distance 3200 miles)
Show us something around your house.

When you need to be somewhere, do you tend to be late, early, or right on time?
Generally on time, sometimes 5-10 minutes late
Have you ever been pulled over, or gotten trouble because you were in a hurry?
The first ticket I was unable to talk my way out of was because I was rushing from class to the voting booth to vote. Class got out at 7:10 and the polls closed at 8. School was 45 minutes away, so I was flying. Needless to say, I didn't get to vote.
What was one of the reasons you left a previous job?
I disliked the person who I was working for (actually left a couple jobs because of this).
How long does it take for you to get ready to go?
Depends where I'm going and what I have to do. But I can be into the shower and out the door in 10 minutes if I have to.
Show us something you can't leave home without.
I never thought I'd say this, but I really can't leave home without it:

new cell phone

What's your average sleep time?
about 3-4 hours. I'd often kill someone for 5 hours of uninterrupted sleep.
Are you an early bird or a late sleeper?
late if I can swing it. Dogs never let me though
Do you find it hard to fall asleep, or do you go right out?
impossible.
Have you ever slept somewhere other than a bed?
hasn't everyone? this is the question that often disappears in memes
Show us sleep.

Tell us about your oldest known relative?
Well, the current matriarch of the family is my grandmother, Meme. She's a beautiful 90-year old woman (may I age as well), and quite possibly the only person in the world that I love unconditionally.
Do you have any friends of the family that you called auntie, uncle, etc?
My Aunt Kay & Uncle Bill were friends of the family, but they passed away over 15 years ago. And there are several older distant cousins that I used to call aunt & uncle, but just call them by their first names now.
Are you related to anyone famous? If not, then tell us about a relative who is extra special.
I could claim DAR if I wanted to. My relatives came over on the ship with William Penn. Recently famous though? No one comes to mind.
Did you tell your loved ones you love them today?
Not yet. I just woke up. Though I did tell my dogs - do they count?
Show us a family member, or a childhood picture.
My cousin Gail:

Because I was a little busy yesterday:

Have you ever been out of your country?
Yes. Several times. And am planning a trip to Paris for a weekend sometime this spring.
What is your mode of transportation?
Generally? My car. But I've also been known to walk, fly, take a boat, my bicycle, rarely my ex-husbands motorcycle, and various other forms of transport.
Have you ever eaten anything straight from nature? (caught a fish, had a garden, or picked an apple off a tree)
Yes.
Tell us about some of the places you have lived.
I don't have the energy at the moment to recount the places I've lived. Let's just say I've moved around more than most but less than some.
Show us a photo from a place...Any place!
