Thieved from bardsong, just because...

[ellyssian]

1. What’s your name? Everett
2. Do you like it? When I was a kid, no. Changed it briefly. Way too formal. Like it now.
3. single or taken? Married, which either trumps both or is trumped by both, depending on your POV
4. zodiac sign? Gemini
5. male or FEMALE? Male
6. your elementary school? Phillips School
7. your middle school? West Marshall Jr. High
8. Favorite flower? Foxglove
9. eye color? Brown
10. hair color? Less brown, more grey
11. What color underwear/boxers you wearing now? Not a clue. Black, maybe?
12. What’s your favorite number? I like imaginary numbers

16. are you a clean freak? Momentarily
17. do you have a crush on someone? Not at the moment, but earlier I squeezed Deb
18. do you like yourself? Yep
19. Any piercings? Possibly. I think the two in my ear are still mostly serviceable.
20. Any tattoos? Nope
21. righty or lefty? Righty
22. what were you doing before this? Browsing through some wildflower seeds
Your First?
23. first surgery? Wisdom teeth
24. first pet? Peter Criss - a cat, of course. Might have had hampsters/gerbils/fish before that, but I don't remember them quite as well.
25. first best friend? Paul S.
26. first medal: Something at Cub Scouts, I'd guess.
27. first sport you played? Organized, would be baseball. Disorganized, probably kickball.
28. first vacation? Jeez, I have no clue. Should probably have patrixa answer these "firsts" - of course her memory may or may not be as bad as mine... =)
29. first crush? Kim M. Second grade. Planned on marrying her.
CURRENTLY?
30. What are you eating? A proprietary blend of various elements in gaseous state
31. what are you drinking? 4C Green Ice Tea
32. I’m about to? Post this
33. I’m listening to? Animusic

35. I’m wearing? Jeans and a T-shirt (hey, didn't even have to type that one...)
36. What book are you reading? Peter S. Beagle's Immortal Unicorn collection. If sitting there, half way through the stories, unread for a month or two counts as reading.
FUTURE?
37. want kids? Three's kind of enough
38. want to get married? Despite the times she says otherwise, I know my wife would object
39. careers in mind? Yep
WHICH IS BETTER WITH THE OPPOSITE SEX / SAME SEX-
40. lips or eyes? Yes
41. hugs or kisses? I don't really like either of them. Oh, wait, we're not talking about the catfood-sized dogs next door. In that case, the answer would be, yes, please, and lots of them.
42. shorter or taller? I've always thought to myself "my next girlfriend will be taller", but it never seemed to work out that way.
43. tan skinned or light? Shouldn't that be "dehydrated, shriveled prune or healthy" or are we trying to determine a skin color preference, and not how long one bastes oneself in the sun? I'm colorblind, in more ways than one, and a deep, heavy tan is great for making one look 30-70 years older than they are.
44. romantic or spontaneous? I concur with bardsong - these aren't mutually exclusive.
45. dark or light hair? Yes
46. muscular or normal? Normal has muscular, so by the former I expect the intention is "hideously mutated steroidized-beyond-all-recognition", in which case normal is just fine
47. hook-up or relationship? I'm pretty sure both are out of the question, as my wife really wouldn't approve
48. similar to you, or different? I suspect similar, as different species just make things more difficult in the long run
HAVE YOU EVER?
49. kissed a stranger? Yes
50. drank alcohol? Yes
51. broken a bone? Mine or one belonging to someone else? In any case, yes.
52. climbed up a tree? Yes
53. broken someones heart? I expect so
54. turned someone down? Yes
55. liked a friend as more than a friend? Yes
56. Can you do a headstand (not using the wall)? No
DO YOU BELIEVE IN?
57. yourself? Yes
58. miracles? The more you believe in, the better your chances, yes? no?
59. Santa Claus? Hasn't missed a year yet so I'll keep believing
60. Sex on the first date? I'm not sure this is something you believe in, as compared with the others. Could it happen? Well, that comes back to me having a wife... Has it happened? Well, my mom reads this...
61. angels? Sure
ANSWER TRUTHFULLY-
62. Is there one or more people you want to be with right now? Yep
63. Are you cool? Leather jacket? Check. Guitar? Check. Nice car? I have many guitars.
64. Anybody on the zone that you'd go on a date with? Too old to catch the reference, and I'm perfectly okay with that. I expect that would mean "no".
The LAST?
65. Text message? Deb
66. Recieved call? DR Power - confirming 18 wheelers can stop by for a visit
67. Call made? US Post Office - reporting we received the neighbor's mail, and they received their neighbor's mail, and where is ours, please?
68. Missed Call? Somebody local, but I don't recognize the number
69. Person you hung out with? Can't remember back far enough to a time when I just hung out.
70. You hugged? Deb
71. You talked to? Justin & Brandon
72. plane ride? Wow. Corpus Christi, for a conference I think. That would have been maybe 5 years ago?

hmm, well, now....

#28: Lake George, summer before Grand Canyon trip. Unless visits to NC count.

#59: I'm older than you and Santa's not missed me, ever, either! And he better, never, either!!

#72: 1st plane ride to NC; you might have been 3 or 4; 2nd time, you were 11 or 12 and were in charge of your brother. You assured me, that as a boy scout, you could assure survival if the plane crashed! It was the scariest day of my life, but it turned out just fine.

Ha! See what I mean!

First plane ride was to Ohio, with a drive to Meadville. First trips were there, too. NC didn't happen until later.

Ohio? That doesn't compute to me, as it would mean drivng thru Cleveland and I used to live there and you'd think I'd recall tha. However, the ages of you and Dan on 1st plane ride make sense of --- oops, it wasn't Ohio, I think it was to Pittsburgh as I remember driving there both to and from Mdvll and there'd be no other reason to do that. I wonder why we did it that way?

BTW, I never considered Meadville trips vacations, they were too busy. NC, however , was a bit more relaxed and felt more like vacation times...

A grand song re memories is from the musical "GIGI" sung by Maurice Chevalier and Hermione Gingold; "I Remember it Well". It's sings the truth!

I remember the state line. Heavy rain in PA ended as we drove across the line.
