No, but I've totally thought about getting one!  I'll probably be pushing one around LONG before I'm an old lady.

When was the last time you were at a carnival or fair?

I was at Coney Island two weeks ago, which was basically a carnival.  Didn't go on any rides though.

What's your favorite city on the east coast of the US?

Easy NYC.  Although DC is very clean, so I'd give it second place.

I've never been west of Chicago (which is a terrific city!).  I give Philadelphia a vote for a great east coast city.

What three bands would be on the soundtrack of the movie about your life when you were in your 20's?  If you are still in your 20's, then make that your teens.

OK...Late teens

1) R.E.M - Crush with Eyeliner ( I used to wear lots  :P )
2) Skunk Anansie - anything they sang - I was madly into them
3) Madness - reminds me of silly dancing me and my brother used to get up too as kids

Has life panned out the way you thought it would as a kid??

Yes.  My life is as full of happiness, love and adventure, and as devoid of money as I had envisioned it as a kid (maybe as a teen...I probably thought I'd be rich when I was a kid).  ;D

What's one thing you do well and should be paid for, but probably never will?

My dishwashing skills. Well, I probably could be paid for it, but I'd never get what I'm worth!  ;D

What are you up to today?

Avoiding work.  :D

Which is scarier, parachuting out of an airplane or deep sea diving?

Having not done either of those things, I wouldn't know!  I do know that I will most likely never do either one of those things as they both seem pretty scary and dangerous....

Did your mom (or dad) pack your lunch as a child?  If so, what was your least favorite lunch?  (mine was the awful cream cheese and jelly (as in jam) sandwich on white bread)

Yes, my Mom packed my lunch when I was a kid.  I'm ashamed to say that I always hated the fruit or veg (carrot, grapes, apple, raisins, whatever) and thew it away.  :-[

Are you a snacker?

As a kid, I started packing my own lunches at a very young age because I wanted *more* carrot and celery sticks, etc. and less Fritos and Cheetos!  I called them "special lunches".

Hmmm, if I do need to snack I try to make it as healthy as possible.  That being said, today I ate a Snickers bar an hour after breakfast which is sort of not like me and very bad!

No, I'm not a blog reader.  Do you know of a good one?

Which do you need more right now, more money or more free time?

More money!  Hopefully the check I'm looking out for will be here by Friday- and then shopping here I come!!  ;D

What is your favorite store to shop in?
