I Can't Write 55
Ganked from Mitch Berg, from whom I also stole the post title and some answers. :)
1. The phone rings; whom do you want it to be?
Friends or family.
The great thing about caller ID is that I can make sure that's who it is. :D
2. When shopping at the grocery store, do you return your cart?
Yes.
3. If you had to kiss the last person you kissed, would you?
In a heartbeat. :)
4. Do you take compliments well?
Most Trainors take criticism badly and praise even worse.
I'm no exception.
5. Do you play Sudoku?
Nope.
6. If abandoned alone in the wilderness, would you survive?
If I had my knife, yeah.
7. Do you like nipple rings?
No. Frankly, they creep me out.
8. Did you ever go to camp as a kid?
Went to Summer Encampment one year with the Civil Air Patrol and a couple of week-long CAP classes/workshops in other summers. I guess that counts.
9. If a sexy person were pursuing you, but you knew he/she were married what would you do?
Tell them to get lost. I'm keeping what few scruples I have left, thanks.
10. Could you date someone with different religious beliefs than you?
Sure. Been there, done thatgot the divorce papers.

I don't do text messaging.
