Survey says

It's a rare day when a little email survey doesn't get me excited. I'm not always first to reply but I'm a pretty sure thing.

I received this one from numerous Paris girls. Hopefully it will give Tabs something else to do tomorrow at work (though you're always welcome to send more surveys). I thought about doing it all in pictures but I want to sleep tonight.

1. What is your occupation right now? PR. Brian calls me a spin doctor.

2. What color are your socks right now? Don't really care for socks. Barefoot.

3. What are you listening to right now? May and Walsh kicking Norwegian butt in volleyball.

4. What was the last thing that you ate? Salad with grilled chicken and Kashi crackers.

5. Can you drive a stick shift? No. Some might say I can barely drive at all.

6. Who was the last person you spoke to on the phone? Brian.

7. Do you like the person who sent this to you? Yes, love her! (Would anyone actually say no to this, by the way? Isn't the point to send it back to your friends, and presumably that would include the person who bothered to send it to you? Just curious...)

8. How old are you today? 27

9. What is your favorite sport to watch on TV? Right now, women's gymnastics, synchronized diving or swimming. In general, U.K. basketball. (Least favorite = baseball or football)

10. What is your favorite drink? Water

11. Have you ever dyed your hair? Am I blonde?

12. Favorite food? Carrots. Apparently Costco sells 5-pound bags. Yeah, I ate the whole thing (not in one sitting, though!)

13. What is the last movie you watched? Step Brothers.

14. Favorite day of the year? Christmas! Fa la la la la...

15. How do you vent anger? Had to think about this one. Came to the conclusion that venting and dealing are different. Good at venting: complaining, pouting, yelling, sometimes making unnecessary noise. Not so good at dealing with it. Hope I have some good qualities - this answer makes me sound like a jerk.

16. What was your favorite toy as a child? Barbie, hands down. Also loved My Little Pony and my "My Girl" doll, Jenny.

17. What is your favorite season? We don't have seasons here. In real life, I prefer fall because I like it when the leaves fall and you start wearing jeans and sweaters. It's mid-August and I'm wearing jeans and long sleeves right now. It's just not natural.

18. Cherries or Blueberries? Cherries. I fight pits with a cherry-pitter from Williams-Sonoma. You just have to put on an apron before doing so or you will have a cherry stained shirt.

19. Do you want your friends to e-mail you back? Actually I would like them to comment on my blog. Take the plunge, come on.

20. Who is the most likely to respond? Well, Emily, the Watts and Brian are frequent commentators. Kristin also throws a shout out in there time and again. Even Momma Neal learned to comment. There are no names on here from Paris :(

22. Living arrangements? Brian & me up 66 steps.

23. When was the last time you cried? I don't really remember. Probably a few weeks ago?

24. What is on the floor of your closet? Just a few bags.

25. Who is the friend you have had the longest that you are sending this to? Does this apply? I think I've known Lauren forever. Sarah Fight pretty close to that.

26. What did you do last night? Picked up the pieces of my domestic life - unpacking, doing dishes, cleaning up after Brian and our trip. Then proceeded to stay up until after midnight for women's gymnastics.

27. What are you most afraid of? Loss of loved ones, failure.

28. Plain, cheese, or spicy hamburgers? Cheese, please.

29. Favorite dog breed? This one I had to do in photos.

First favorite.

Backup breed. Do you think this is a doggie Glamour Shot?

30. Favorite day of the week? Saturday.

31. How many states have you lived in? 5
