    I buy myself what i want and then have people give it to me. I got a couple bed things - an awesome memory foam body pillow and some PJ stuff and the West Wing complete series which was on a lightning deal for only 50.00 - for the whole box set!! My son is giving me that for Christmas.

    What's your favorite Christmas song and by what artist?

    Butter tarts...I can't eat them anymore because I had to give up dairy but I still make them for everyone else and live vicariously through the smell of them baking.

    Do you do a lot of Christmas baking?
    Anything you lose from being honest
    You never really had to begin with.


    Sometimes it's not the song that makes you emotional it's the people and things that come to your mind when you hear it.

    Only the Christmas cake, which is the only thing I know how to make. Hence I bake but once a year :p

    If you don't have Christmas cake or pudding in your country, what's the normal Christmas dessert?

    Well I don't celebrate Christmas but used to and we often had pumpkin pie, fudge, cookies and various other confections.


    Can you name some other holidays often celebrated in other religions/cultures around the world without the assist of Google?

    If you had $15 to spend on a stranger for Secret Santa, what would you buy?

    Another habit says its long overdue
    Another habit like an unwanted friend

    None of the above. Tea is our national drink :)

    Christmas tree - real or fake?

    My wedding rings, and the 3 rings on my other hand, one that has a great sentimental value, it belonged to my friend Sherry who passed away last year.

    Do you wear a watch?

    Nope. Use my phone to tell time or, alternatively, I'm just always late

    What's the last piece of jewelry you were given?

    A necklace. From my dad, who evidently doesn't know I don't wear jewellery.

    Do you enjoy your birthday?

    Yes, it is the day after 4th of July, so even sober it's fun! But I have definitely had a few drunken messes of a birthday!! Lmao

    What was your favorite birthday present as a kid?

    I remember when Razr scooters were the biggest things, and all my friends had one. I think I was in first grade, or around that year. Asked dad, who said ask your mom, and mom said no. So I asked my grandparents and of course they came through haha! The look on my mom's face was priceless!

    If you won the lottery with some serious cash, would you keep working because you like your job or quit immediately?
