    I would say skip out, but I've been told I am a bad influence.

    Do you know someone who is going on a trip soon?

    I do. There is a fabulous Canadian who is making a big trip to see some band in some country south of us . . . :whistle:

    Back to the chocolate milk discussion. Nestle Quik? Really? I'm an Ovaltine girl all the way. None of that stuff! I LOVE Ovaltine to this day. Sad to admit, but true.

    We sell tea cups like that at work. I've wondered if the loose tea would go through the holes and leave you with bits in your tea? We do sell a lot of them. I would be more apt to purchase the cup with the close knit mesh basket instead.

    Have you ever tried to have a conversation with a friend who happens to be in the full throes of an ADD cycle?

    (:raising hand here: I'm feeling very ADD today. Sorry.)

    I haven't.

    But, I think many of us have visited that ADD-ish vicinity.

    So don't apologize; you're loved no matter what :)

    Do you make a point of getting your YOU time?

    Yes, and it drives my boss bonkers.

    DEP- I haven't found bits in my tea, but they don't bother me if I do find it in any tea I drink.

    First time I stayed at my grandparents' they made ovaltine in a cereal bowl and given a choice of cereal...frosted flakes or honey comb. I grudgingly ate the honey comb, and then they yelled at me (to the point of me in tears) because I didn't drink the cereal milk/ovaltine. They wouldn't stop yelling until I drank the disgusting slop, then ran to the bathroom to puke up my breakfast. That was the last time I saw my grandparents...and the last time I touched ovaltine.

    Do you like flavored popcorn?

    Oh jeez, RK. That makes me wanna hug you.

    I am a lover of all popcorn. White cheddar, caramel, buttery. Yes and yes.

    Nope. Tv is all about Halloween already. The stupid competitive cooking show my mom is watching is Halloween themed.

    I did (for me, anyway). 7:30. Was tough to not roll over and get some more.

    Is anyone else fixated on Ident's upside-down question mark and how/why it's there?

    Aw! I named my car Diablo - and my husband and his brother have a long history with raising, teaching and educating about pit bulls. They're beautiful resilient animals.

    That said, we have two cats =) I can't say my preference though, because I'm enamored of both.

    Do you find, as you get older, it takes more to let certain people into your life? Not so much in a barrier sense, but in the bar is raised?
    *edit - and it's fucking awesome to meet them.

    Yes, both in the barrier and bar raised sense. And I look froward to meeting you, Jedi Hedo (announce a tour already, PJ). :heart:

    Isn't it great to have a day to do absolutely nothing once in a while?

    Actually I find I have less choice about who gets to be in my life as I get older. I definitely have less patience for dumbasses though.

    The ¿ Is just an autocorrect accident when i try to ? But move my finger slightly to the left.

    Do you give people who cough without covering their mouths in public dirty looks?

    Yes to the nth degree.

    (and me too!)

    Would you be willing to give up one of your senses to have another enhanced?

    *edited. Hi Mods! Can we have this edit option for pm's as well? Please and thank you :peace:

    Ovaltine is a happy drink, not an abusive one. I'm sorry. That makes me sad for you. :mentally noted not to send RK Ovaltine-- EVER:

    You know, I can be either one. Not lil yappy dogs. I've been seriously bitten by three large dogs, one requiring medical attention. I'm a damaged dog girl. However . . . last week, I was DELIGHTED to meet Derby Dave's big ole pup, Sammy.

    Yes, wash squash. Cut in half lengthwise. Scoop out seeds, now you can either drizzle olive oil all over them and sprinkle on salt and pepper (or I like to put a pat of butter and a spoonful of brown sugar in the hollowed out portion), OR peel and chop into cubes, drizzle with olive oil and salt and pepper. Place in glass baking dish. Bake at 350℉ for 60-90 minutes, or until it is soft like a baked potato.

    Do you have a hot tub?

    No worries, my grandparents were the mean grouchy kind. Even though I was young, I knew...I was always told 'grandpa's mean...he always yelled at all his kids, now he yells at the grandkids'
