Weekly Survey

Weekly Survey 11/06/16

1. What's the strangest meal you've ever eaten?
Dunno. I've eaten a lot of 'exotic' foods, but I can't think of a meal that seems especially strange.

2. Have you ever spoken in front of a large crowd?
Many times

3. What is the last curse word you said? (I know mods, just want to see all the software editing)
It was absolutely filthy and not suitable for this august crowd

4. What is the strangest animal you ever touched?
Python, maybe?

5. Morning or night person?
Night, definitely

6. Have you ever screamed out loud? Sure Why? Rollercoasters, sudden frights, when I had gout and had to have a monster needle shoved in my knee to withdraw fluid...

7. Do you make people laugh?
Sometimes.

8. Did you ever make people laugh when you did not mean to?
All the time. I'm both a klutz and I have a mouth that tends to ruin away without asking my brain for permission to speak.

9. What is your favorite cocktail? Oh lord. So many. Captain and coke is an all time favorite, and my Aussie and Irish friends have gotten me on to gin and tonics. Amaretto or whisky sour. Moscow Mule (but I like them with white rum instead of vodka, so I guess it's a Havana Donkey ) Oh, and my husband (I am the Wine Mom and he is the Cocktail Dad) recently invented a pomegranate lime-a-rita that is FANTASTIC.

10. Will you do the survey next week?
Sho, unless someone who hasn't had a turn or has a great idea wants to do it!

 

[Alexandra M]

If somebody would be kind enough to remind me, that would be much appreciated (in case I forget!)

It's been a long time since I asked any of the questions

I just read this so thought I would be the one to remind you about the survey ...

Rice wraps, they were awful

2. Have you ever spoken in front of a large crowd?
Yes, many times

A few days ago and it was really bad. Definitely be edited out

4. What is the strangest animal you ever touched?
A buffalo

5. Morning or night person?
A night person for sure

6. Have you ever screamed out loud? Why?
No, for some reason I cannot scream. My friends tell me its because I speak so quietly my vocal cords won't expand so I can scream. Wanted to a few times though.

7. Do you make people laugh?
I think so

8. Did you ever make people laugh when you did not mean to?
Yes and it really puzzles me why they are laughing.

9. What is your favorite cocktail? If any.
A marguerita in a rock glass with lots of ice and sugar around the rim.

10. Will you do the survey next week?

That would be a disaster.

 

[Neesy]

Looks like I completely forgot to do the survey last Sunday - sorry!

I had a week off and guess what I did on my last night of 'freedom' before returning to work on Monday?

I stayed up reading "Finders Keepers" until 2:45 a.m. - boy was I ever tired on Monday!

I have a plumber coming over today (probably in about 10 minutes) so I will have to beg off for now and come back to this later - I'll see if I can come up with some good questions

p.s. Thank you Alexandra M - for the reminder which I did not see until about three or four minutes ago

Please give Neesy a pass- she lost her cat this week. Do not think the Survey was on her mind. Thank you for posting one.
