| mad fingers | Posted – 1/12/2008 12:34:04 AM | show profile The tongue was only "used" in the sense that I would take it out and point it at people who annoyed me. Never used it for the purpose for which it was intended. It was just too ridiculous looking. Come to think of it (pun intended?) I do have one adult toy, but that's not what its manufacturer had in mind, I'm sure. |
| HisGirlFriday | Posted – 1/12/2008 3:57:49 PM | show profile 1. What do you 100-percent deserve? A vacation with my husband. Someplace warm. 2. Are there any occupations that you feel women should not be in? That men should not be in? Not as a rule - there are always exceptions. 3. What bores you to tears? Finance and math. Daytime television- the View, Oprah and their ilk. Ayn Rand. 4. Which singer(s) voice do you find amazing? Women: Nina Simone, Ella, Alanis Morrisette, Keely Smith, Billie Holiday, Etta James, Mahalia Jackson. Men: Tom Waits, Prince, Stevie Wonder, Elvis, Bruce Sprinsteen ("Tunnel of Love" is the hottest song EVER.) 5. Have you ever driven while drunk or under the influence? I'm sure there have been times when I should not have been driving. 6. What is the oldest piece of clothing you own? Aside from antique jewlery from the 20's - I have a college sweatshirt from 1990. 7. What is the biggest threat to your personal happiness? Misfortune - a stroke of bad luck. 8. Who is the biggest asshole you know? My friend's husband who is a complete jerk. He treats her badly, talks about how great he is, ignores his kids. And he buys bad hotel art. 9. What makes you a good friend? Once I feel close to someone I'm a do-anything-for-ya kind of person: airport pickups, take care of your sick kid, loan money, etc. 10. What have you done that you are not proud of? I was once very careless with someone's heart. This was more than a decade ago and I still feel like I cannot do anything to repair this karmic rift, or repay him for being such a jerk. I was also intimate with an old boyfriend's best friend. Oh, and I don't always recycle. Sometimes I just throw out that plastic container with the rotting Chinese food. Bonus Question~ Do you own any adult toys? Quite a few. Would like to use them on above-mentioned tropical vacation with husband. |

The suburbs. 4. Which singer(s) voice do you find amazing? Bob Marley. Whitney, pre-Bobby and pre-crack. Christina Aguilera. Bobby McFarrin. 5.

I stole a greeting card from the drug store a few weeks ago. The line was really long and they only had one register working. The cashier was slow as molasses and I was in a rush. I just walked out of Duane Reade holding the card. I think the security guard may have even wished me a nice day. Bonus Question~ Do you own any adult toys? No, but I want to get the rabbit-thingie I've heard a few women talk about. |
