What would you "like to know" about the next poster....

No & I hope I don't ever have to!

Have you made fajitas (from scratch) before?

Yes! Yum! 

Do you pay your bills as soon as they arrive, or leave them until they're due?

I do my part once per month with online banking, and then the checks go out from the bank as needed.

What's your best headache cure?

Depending on the type or cause: coffee, sleep, food, exercise, water or paracetemol. Failing that, 222s, if I was in Canada, and it was a real b*gger.

Do you treat yourself regularly, and if so, with what?
 

"Spa day" --face mask, pedicure, deep conditioner, bubble bath, etc.

Do you regularly wear lipstick and perfume?

Nope.

When was the last time you wore heels?

It's been a few years since I wore heels. I never could get the hang of them on Newcastle's uneven pavements and streets, so...sometime before I moved there in 2006. I don't think I remember how to walk in them now!


What's your ritual for unwinding after work? (For example, I have to make myself a cup of tea and some toast.)

Drink 4-5 beers...have a wasabi snooter, beat my chest everytime I get a kill shot on Call of Duty....

Do you believe in Obamas Stimulas plan?

I believe that the government could provide a boost to the economy and retain/upgrade peoples' job skill sets by funding public works' projects, however, having worked for a federal agency, I also know how difficult it is for the government to be effective in a timely manner when it comes to funding projects (the red tape is incredible!!).  Not to mention that the myriad layers that this has to go through (fed, state, and locan bureaucracies) will reduce the efficiency of what the government is trying to do.

I believe in the theory, but I am skeptical about the execution, in a nutshell.

Would you ever want to work for the government (UK/US, whoever)?

Hmmm... maybe if it were something rewarding, like working with children or the elderly, or other people in need.

On another note:

Drink 4-5 beers...have a wasabi snooter, beat my chest everytime I get a kill shot on Call of Duty....

DH, is that you?? 

Do you have a "dream job"? If so, what is it?

No.

Is there any type of food that just makes you gag, even just thinking about it?

Pickled beets. 

What celebrity, if any, do you think you could actually be friends with?

James Nesbitt or Kathy Burke!

If you could have a any animal in the world as a pet....what would you have?

In my ideal world, I will have an Irish Wolf Hound (who is not inbred into stupidity and  oafishness) and a West Highland Terrier.  They will be the VERY best of friends and NOT take too much time or attention away from my current loving kitty kats. 

Sound likely?  No.  But there is time. 

What would be your worst case scenario pet?

A big smelly slobbery hair shedding dog.    Sorry, count me among the "cat people" of the world. 

What was the first pet you had that you really loved and why was it so loveable?
