New Year's Eve and it's hard to believe
another zodiac has gone around.

While you drank yourself high on hoping
and watched the ceiling spin from the ground.

Counting down from ten it's time
to make your annual prayer.

Secret santa in the sky
when will I get my share?

Then you tell yourself
what you want to hear.

Cause you have to believe.

This will be my year.

This will be my year...Semisonic

So our friend friend who shall otherwise be known as "he of the wayward husbands" forwarded me one of those get to know you surveys. And well all I do is talk about myself here now don't I? Plus I don't much feel like sharing what's really irritating me. Though it starts with, "Who the hell are you and where the hell have you been?"

Apparently it's a new version...
1. IF YOU COULD BUILD A SECOND HOUSE ANYWHERE WHEREWOULD IT BE? On the water preferably within comfortable driving distance of all my near and dear.

2. WHAT'S YOUR FAVORITE ARTICLE OF CLOTHING? My shoes. Nobody ever says "Do I look fat in these shoes?" unless they are naked and well the only person looking at their shoes would be me. Second would be my denim skirts.

3. THE LAST CD YOU BOUGHT? Errrr...I haven't "purchased" a CD in a long long time.

OKAY, where's number four?

5. WHAT'S YOUR FAVORITE KITCHEN APPLIANCE? My yellow Kitchen Aid mixer.

6. IF YOU COULD PLAY AN/other INSTRUMENT, WHAT WOULDIT BE? The harpsichord.

7. FAVORITE COLOR? Pink

8. WHICH DO YOU PREFER, SPORTS CAR OR SUV? I am a nomad at heart and the utilty of being able to move many things at once is very important to me. In fact one of the first things I do when I look at a car is investigate the trunk and say, "How many of me do you think you could fit in there?" However, putting that aside, Gilly doesn't call me a "Wing dinger" for nothing. I belong in a cute zippy car with a tight suspension. I never use my brakes...that's why God made curves and corners.

9. DO YOU BELIEVE IN AFTERLIFE? Yup, yup and yupper.

10. FAVORITE CHILDREN'S BOOK? As a child...The cover of the Sgt. Peppers Lonely Hearts Club Band for visual stimluation and The Monster at the End of This Book because I loved loved loved (still love Grover). Damn that Elmo to hell.

11. WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE SEASON? Spring. The smell of wet grass and the suggestion of long bright nights lingering in the air. Plus it will always remind me of our wedding.

12. IF YOU COULD HAVE ONE SUPER POWER, WHAT WOULD IT BE? Life is too tricky as is and everything is for a reason I decline that off. Thanks anyway.

13. TATTOO, WHAT IS IT? Nothing. Like this blog I am entirely ink free.

14. CAN YOU JUGGLE? Scarves slightly, words like a pro.

15. IF YOU WISH YOU COULD GO BACK AND TALK TO? It's probably safe to say that I think it's best to just keep moving forward but if I had to pick I might say myself. I'd say, "Listen up snarky, stressed out, achiever girl you need to relax. You aren't fat. Make the first move because boys your age are too intimidated by you. Don't get into the back seat with that boy. Did I mention loosen up? Oh, yeah, when you're in college dump "the artist" when your phone bill excedes $150 a month. Totally and absolutely have that one night fling with that tall guy in the band. Trust me it was well worth it. And when that guy sexually harasses you at the Christmas party knee him in the balls and file a complaint with HR on Monday."

16. WHAT'S YOUR FAVORITE DAY? The five minutes of the weekend morning right before I talk myself out of bed...when I reach over and lay my hand on Gilly's belly and just relax.

17. WHAT'S IN THE TRUNK OF YOUR CAR? A sweatshirt, a pair of last year's sandals, a roll of paper towels, a clear shower curtain and a pair of black Issac Mizrahi pointy toed, stilletto, double ankle strap shoes that I forgot to bring inside the house.

18. WHICH DO YOU PREFER SUSHI OR HAMBURGER? Cheeseburger

19. FROM THE PEOPLE YOU WILL EMAIL THIS TO, WHO'S MOST LIKELY TO RESPOND FIRST? No one because I filled it out on my blog.

20. WHO'S LEAST LIKELY TO RESPOND? Errr, see number 19.

21. WHO DID YOU RECEIVE THIS FROM? He of the Wayward Husbands.

22. WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE FLOWER? Blue Delphinias

28. WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE MEAL? Anything on a weekday night before 7:30PM, because that means I a. didn't go to work or b. left work early or c. have acheived my life long dream of becoming a lady of leisure.
