1. What age were you when you first started dating? Depends on what you consider dating. Formal dates: 16 or 17
2. What do you think of a man being interested in a woman 10 years older than himself? Depends on their ages when it happens. 26 and 16=no bueno. 30 and 20=sketchy. 30 and 40=better.
3. Have you been to Mexico? Yep
4. Now that it is winter (well at least for most of us) - have you thought of moving to another warmer part of the country? Every damn Nov-March
5. Public transportation for yourself personally - yay or nay? If it is reliable and timely, yes. It's neither here.
6. When was the last time you did something spontaneous? I try to do so pretty much every day
7. Have you ever planned ahead for a special event then realized that because of it you would have to play hookey from work? Heck yes. I was a horrible employee in my early 20s
8. Ever been to a live hockey game? Yep
9. What is the most serious injury you have had in your life? e.g. broken bones etc So many broken bones in my legs and feet. Herniated disc in my back. Stitches a couple of times. I'm a wreck.
10. When it comes to bodily functions, medical procedures and so on - are you squeamish? Nah

1. What age were you when you first started dating? 16

2. What do you think of a man being interested in a woman 10 years older than himself? Meh...... unless the age difference puts the guy in teenage years, then it's just creepy

3. Have you been to Mexico? Nope

4. Now that it is winter (well at least for most of us) - have you thought of moving to another warmer part of the country? Every day

5. Public transportation for yourself personally - yay or nay? Not applicable here, it's Nay because we don't have it

6. When was the last time you did something spontaneous? Are you kidding?......I'm the girl who hides in the basement if someone drops by unannounced

7. Have you ever planned ahead for a special event then realized that because of it you would have to play hookey from work? Not really, if something interferes with my work schedule, I just block out the appointment book.

8. Ever been to a live hockey game? Nope

9. What is the most serious injury you have had in your life? e.g. broken bones etc I guess it would be when the dog almost took off my ear when I was 7

10. When it comes to bodily functions, medical procedures and so on - are you squeamish? Well, I could never be a caregiver in an assisted living facility, because I'd spend all my time throwing up. I tend to find Medical procedures very interesting, though.

1. What age were you when you first started dating?
-uhm. . . I'm 16 and i haven't date anyone else, because it is ME who do not like to

2. What do you think of a man being interested in a woman 10 years older than himself?
-That's no problem for me (but not if one of them is in level of underage

3. Have you been to Mexico?
-No

4. Now that it is winter (well at least for most of us) - have you thought of moving to another warmer part of the country?
-i live in a warmer country and yet nights were still freaking cold

5. Public transportation for yourself personally - yay or nay?
-YAY! As someone who always ride on public vehicles

6. When was the last time you did something spontaneous?
-TBQH, I forgot

7. Have you ever planned ahead for a special event then realized that because of it you would have to play hookey from work?
-No, I never like planning events, because unplanned events always the best (and of course, never got spoiled by everyone excusing themselves because they're busy)

8. Ever been to a live hockey game?
-No, but i'd like to

9. What is the most serious injury you have had in your life? e.g. broken bones etc
-only a leg pain that was healed by a traditional massage here in Philippines called "Hilot"

10. When it comes to bodily functions, medical procedures and so on - are you squeamish?
-yes, i almost got Diabetes but luckily, before my blood sugar got way up high into the boarderline of diabetes, we checked it up. (TBQH, when it comes to medical procedures, it scares me because i have some relatives who died because of disease, not a natural cause)

1. What age were you when you first started dating?

Twelve. Wasn't everybody?

Although, I will say, the definition of "dating" has changed a bit since I was 12.

2. What do you think of a man being interested in a woman 10 years older than himself?

I find it amusing that women who are offended when their husbands trade them in on a younger model, find an alternate perspective when a younger man becomes interested in them. But .... then again .... I find almost everything amusing.

3. Have you been to Mexico?

Many times. A beautiful country full of wonderful people ... if you know where to go.

4.Now that it is winter (well at least for most of us) - have you thought of moving to another warmer part of the country?

Winter always makes my head pine for the Gulf of Mexico -- or someplace that isn't this godforsaken prairie -- but my heart knows better. Doesn't yours?

5. Public transportation for yourself personally - yay or nay?

Speaking of things that amuse me ... every jackass I've ever met who thinks "carbon credits" are the solution to "global warming" .... wouldn't take a bus if you pointed a gun @ them.

6. When was the last time you did something spontaneous?

Just this very moment.

7. Have you ever planned ahead for a special event then realized that because of it you would have to play hookey from work?

It was this very behavior that convinced me -- ultimately -- that I should work for myself. The downside being that my boss has already heard all of my boolsheet already. I hate it when I outsmart myself.

8. Ever been to a live hockey game?

Oh my, yes. I would submit that of the major sports (and soccer), hockey is the one most enjoyable at the actual venue ... as opposed to on TV..

9. What is the most serious injury you have had in your life? e.g. broken bones etc

I was cut quite severely just above my left knee, during a security operation in my Navy days, upon which I won't bother too elaborate. It took quite a number of stitches -- internally and on the surface -- to close the wound and there are people who claim that the bleeding was more serious than it seemed to me at the time. Adrenaline is a funny thing. The upshot was that the guy with the sharp edge lost to the guy with the baton

Let's talk about something else.

10. When it comes to bodily functions, medical procedures and so on - are you squeamish?


Another funny thing ...

I used to think I was "squeamish," but once I was localized, I watched the corpsman sew up my leg after the above injury, and found that I was actually fascinated by the process. I would never have guessed that. Which only goes to show that -- of all the things we don't know -- we don't know ourselves the most.
