I was getting annoyed with that Oscar entry so I�ve moved on to l.bug�s survey:

1. What�s one thing you wish you could do but you can�t? Nothing. If I set my mind to it, anything I�ve always wanted to do can be done.

2. What time of the day do you like to take a shit? I never looked at my watch when I took one.

3. What is your ideal marriage location? I�ve never really thought about it. Yes shocking I know. I�ve always just told myself that when I do marry I�m wearing white sneakers under the dress. I�m all about comfort on that day.

4. Which musical instrument do you wish you could play? Violin. I used to play the cello when I was a kid and always wanted to move on to the violin. Never did - chubby fingers.

5. What's your favorite sexual position? I�ve liked them all.

6. Favorite fabric? Cashmere

7. Something you love and hate? I love chocolate but hate ice cream.

8. What kind of bedding do you use? The clean ones in the linen closet.

9. What kind of soap do you use? Johnson�s & Johnson�s baby soap.

10. Do you tell your friends about your sex life? Not usually. But then again they all know the damage I can do.

11. What's the one language you want to learn? Japanese. My brother is beginning to learn it and its pretty nifty.

12. How do you eat an apple? In slices, I hate biting into them.

13. What do you order at a bar? I stick with my Tanqueray gin & tonics. Bolly if I want to celebrate. Sometimes a cosmo in the summer. And I do enjoy a good dry martini with 3 olives because I�m greedy. Sidecar�s aren�t that bad either.

14. Have you ever pierced your body parts? If so, where? One hole in each ear. I used to have my tongue pierced but it was so painful that I just took it out.

15. Do you have tattoos? No. But I�ve always wanted a small ladiebug on the inside of my right wrist. I�m just too much of a wuss to get one. I keep thinking of how I�ll look if I�m an old granny with a tattoo. It just doesn�t fit.

16. Would you ever admit to having done plastic surgery of any kind if confronted? Yeah why not?

17. What's one of the "funnest" things you've ever done? My life is an endless party or at least I try to make it one so there�s always something fun to do. I never limit myself to just one thing.

18. Do you drive stick? My answer has got to be like l.bugs, �Guys yes, cars no.�

19. What's one trait you hate in a person? Dishonesty. I hate a person who lies.

20. What's the soonest that you've slept with someone (or hypothetically)? The same night. (What can I say, a one night stand is a one night stand.)

21. What kind of watch(es) do you wear? Too much of my mom�s disappointment, a man�s watch. I can�t help it though, I like it so much.

22. Most frivolous purchase? Nothing is frivolous if I really wanted it.

23. Do you consider yourself materialistic? Aren�t most people? I have to say I am to some extent, but such is life. I�m trying to break out of that Karen habit.

24. What do you cook the best? Chocolate cake.

25. Favorite writing instrument? My fountain pen that I�ve had since I was a kid.

26. Do you prefer to stand out or blend in? I usually stand out. Maybe its because I talk too much or am too friendly. I don�t mean to be, I guess its just in my nature.

27. Do you have anything monogrammed? Yeah, but baby stuff when I was a baby.

28. Would you ever go out dressed like the opposite sex? For no particular purpose - nope, not really.

29. What's one car you will never buy? I�ve never thought about it. Hell I still don�t know how to drive yet.

30. Have you ever done drugs? Nope, never.

31. What kind of books do you like to read? Fiction. Usually mystery and horror.

32. If you won the lottery, what would you do first? Smile from ear to ear realizing that I could be debt free and still have cash to play around with to help my family and aid me in adventures of mystery and fun.

33. Burial or cremation? I�d rather not think about it.

34. How many online journals do you read regularly? Usually the ones on my list to the right. (Yes I get free time here and there from work to be able to do it. Stop staring at me. I swear I�m not procrastinating!)

35. What's one thing you're a sore loser at? I try not to be a sore loser. But I�ve found that when cooking and something disastrous happens I get angry at myself. But its only sometimes that happens so I guess I could count myself lucky.

36. If you don't like a person, how do you show it? they�ll know. Believe me they�ll no. I�m very blunt when I want to be.

37. How many drinks before you're tipsy? I have a high alcohol tolerance. Usually 6-8 drinks. (What can I say? I�m a lush.)

38. Favorite kind of porn? Any porn that gets me off is good porn.

39. Do you have problems changing clothes in front of friends? Not at all. Please I was born in Rio. People walk around naked there all the time. Its not a big deal.

40. Do you cry in front of friends? I try not to. I hate crying in front of people, especially friends.

41. What kind of first impression do you think you give to people? Loud & Friendly.

42. What's one thing you like to do alone? Sleep. I hate sharing a bed.

43. What's the worst thing you ever said to someone? You�re a coward � I hate you. (Told to a friend who days later killed himself.)

44. Are you a giver or a taker? 50/50.

45. What have you stolen before? a plastic ring when I was a kid. But I brought it back the next day and apologized.

46. When's the right time to go to the bathroom in front of your significant other? I don�t limit myself to time lines. If I have to pee I pee. If I have to poop I will. You like me for me, even when I am sitting on the toilet seat.

47. Favorite communication method? Talking to a person face to face. Although lately its been all about emails being sent back and forth.

48. What is one thing you don't leave home without? Wallet, keys, lip balm, cell phone.

49. How often do you have sex? I�ve been having a dry spell lately - can anyone spell Sahara?

50. What's the most painful experience you've ever had? My friends death when I was younger. And the friends that died on September 11th. I�ve been to too many funerals. More funerals than weddings. And that�s just not right.
