11. Furthest away from home you have ever been?
I think Poland is slightly east of Sweden? Either Stockholm, Sweden or Gdansk, Poland, in 1986.
12. Do you wear jewelry?
I wear one ring all the time, but these days hardly anything else. I used to like choosing earrings and sometimes brooches. Oh, and I had a necklace for a long time that I wore almost every day.
13. What is your favorite flavor for a smoothie?
Mango
14. Is there anyone you wish you never met?
Really not that many people. One ex. I would love it if my life could erase those eight or nine months and I would never have had to meet him. SUCH a fucking smug, wannabe Pygmalion, liberal "feminist man". Ugggghhhhh.
15. Has the electricity ever gone out when you were at school or work?
Yes, at my last school, but not for long enough that we had to (legally) send kids home.
16. What’s the latest you have ever stayed out?
Oh, overnight. I remember one particular time in my high school years, with my first boyfriend and all of his stupid male posse (well, some were stupider and more annoying than others) driving around in the stupidest one's mother's car, with them baiting other guys and barely escaping a beat down. Weirdly, we then ended up on a deserted beach on Lake Michigan, I think in Winnetka, watching the sun rise, which was magical.
17. Do you put ketchup on top of your french fries or on the side?
I don't like ketchup, at all.
18. What is the first song that comes to mind right now?
"Bells Are Ringing" by Mary Chapin Carpenter, which is one of the only times I have had that problem where your brain just refuses to understand lyrics -- for years I thought she was singing some kind of... I dunno, Norse pagan chant? "Hail sofringen", something like that. Nope -- it's just "Bells are ringing", WHICH IS THE TITLE OF THE SONG. I still like it, though. I like her whole Xmas album, except the sort of twee "Hot Buttered Rum".
19. Would you rather live without music or without the TV?
What a fucking horrible choice. Although I'll say I'd rather live without TV, because at least it hasn't asked me to choose between music and books.
20. Do you like orange juice?
I like orange juice, but I don't drink it much. I LOVE grapefruit juice, and stupid statin medication means I cannot have it. Sigh.
