1. First thing you wash in the shower?
Face. Unless I'm at work (more likely) in which case it's hair.
2. What colour is your favourite hoodie?
Black.
3. Would you kiss the last person you kissed again?
For the rest of my life!
4. Do you plan outfits?
Yup. Usually many days in the future, for fun, in a boring meeting. But they're almost always planned at some point regardless.
5. How are you feeling RIGHT now?
Cheerful.
6. What’s the closest thing to you that's red?
My hair. Sort of.
7. Tell me about the last dream you remember having?
I couldn't find James. I knew he was okay, I just couldn't find him.
8. Did you meet anybody new today?
A woman in the elevator at work.
9. What are you craving right now?
Nothing, oddly.
10. Do you floss?
Often.
11. What comes to mind when I say cabbage?
Baby rabbits hiding in the leaves. No idea why.
12. Are you emotional?
Definitely, at times. Though never at work.
13. Have you ever counted to 1,000?
Not that I recall. And I imagine I would.
14. Do you bite into your ice cream or just lick it?
Lick it, even off the spoon (kinda gross I know).
15. Do you like your hair?
Yup. It's pricey and time-consuming to take care of it but I like it.
16. Do you like yourself?
Yup. I also irritate and embarrass myself, but that's par for the course.
17. Would you go out to eat with George W. Bush?
Yup. Couldn't pass up that opportunity, much as I hate the man.

The breeze coming through my dining room windows.
19. Do you believe in God?
*A* God, yes.
20. Would you go sky diving?

21. Do you like cottage cheese?
Yup.
22. Have you ever met a celebrity?
Bill Murray, who said my shoes were way too large (not funny w/o context). Otherwise it's John Cleese, Liddy Dole, Sylvester Stallone and Chelsea Clinton (whose glass of sauvignon blanc came from the same bottle as mine).

Nope. I do enjoy shooting them though.
32. Can you use chopsticks?
Yup.
33. Who are you going to be with tonight?
Steve and James (the latter only until about 7pm when he goes to bed).
34. Are you too forgiving?
Probably the opposite.
35. Ever been in love?
Yup.

Nesting with me and his son. If it's best non-spouse friend, then I imagine she's chilling in Sunset Park and I should call her.

Yup.
38. Last time you cried?
Night before last in a hotel room in Connecticut, missing James.
39. What was the last question you asked?
"Is there anything else we need to cover?" Classic scope creep/managing expectations/consulting 101 shit with long-suffering clients and the unholy marriage that is SharePoint and a bastardized quasi-ersatz-DCMI enterprise taxonomy.

Fall.

Nope.
52. Do you like your life right now?
Yup! Very much.
53. Do you sleep with the TV on?
Nope. Can't even have it in the bedroom.
54. Can you handle the truth?
I guess we all have to handle it every day, don't we? I don't always like it, no.
55. Do you have good vision?
Nope. I'm still up at 10.5 diopters in one eye and only slightly better in the other. I also have no intention of having LASIK anytime soon.

My half of lunch with my friend John.
