shadowkat1. Do you like rain?
Yes, but in moderation and when I don't have to walk through it. Walking in the rain in NYC is kind of a pain, it goes sideways, and you get soaked regardless. Also right now it is raining, and for some reason I ache.
2. Have you seen someone recently you used to talk to, but don’t anymore?
Yes, an errant co-worker who retired in 2019 and felt the need to pop up again at the office during a pandemic no less. He was surprised not many people were there...
3. What color are your eyes?
To me? Green. To other people it varies. So depends on who you ask.
4. How long have you known the last person you text messaged?
Her whole life. (Obviously a relative.)
5. Do you keep notes, drawings or letters that people give you?
Used to. Don't now. No room. I live in an apartment - a one-bedroom apartment that I rent. I get rid of stuff.
6. Have you ever locked yourself out of your car?
When I owned on. I don't own one now. (As an aside whomever is doing this meme obviously owns a car.)
7. What’s your favorite kind of cheese?
White Cheddar, Extra Sharp.
8. Have you ever boycotted anything?
Yes. But it is kind of pointless unless everyone does it.
9. Do you have any embarrassing usernames?
Unless you count shadowkat - then yes.
10. Have you ever did (sic) well on a test when you didn’t study?
No. I don't test well. This question is kind of proof though that tests are problematic means of measurement - if you think about it.
11. Do you still take hot showers when it’s hot out?
Yes, I have Air Conditioning.
12. Do you like the picture on your ID?
No
13. Is there someone you pretend to like but you really don't like?
Odd and somewhat redundant question. Should be - "Do you pretend to like anyone?" Yes, I cannot pick my co-workers, folks I go to church with, and people in the apartment complex.
14. Have you ever raked leaves, and then played in them?
Yes. Often as a child.
15. What is one thing you've realized or discovered lately?
That the internet can be aggravating?
16. Which family member did you inherit your hair color from?
Mother
17. What’s the average length of a shower for you?
I've never really timed it?
18. What’s something about adult life you were never warned of or prepared for?
Social media?
19. If you won the lottery, do you think any of your family members would ask you to give them some of your money?
Yes
20. What is the craziest thing you’ve seen happen at your workplace?
I don't know...there's a lot to choose from...eeny meany moe...at the moment? The crazy merger. Although someone flushing their glasses down the toilet does count.
21. Would you rather read a book or listen to the audiobook?
Depends on the book and narrator. Non-fiction works very well on audiobook, if you have a good voice actor.
22. Have you ever eaten snow?
Yep. We used to make snow-ice cream with fresh snow as a kind.
23. Curtains or blinds?
Blinds.
24. Have you ever adopted a stray (cat or dog)?
No.
25. Do you own/wear any jumpsuits?
God no. I don't understand the point of them. Why would you wear something that requires you to take all of your clothing off just to go to the bathroom? Also no one looks good in them.
26. Do you struggle with dry skin in the winter?
Yes. Radiator heat is the bane of my existence.
27. Have you ever gotten angry at an employee and complained to the manager?
Sigh.
28. Do you add unnecessary letters to the end of words?
Of course, I'm dyslexic. And I took French - which kind of made it worse - in that I added e's to the end of everything.
29. What was the last thing you used your phone for, besides calling/texting?
Listening to music
30. Do you always check the prices of things when you buy groceries?
No.
31. How many nights per week do you cook dinner at home vs. going out to eat?
Every night. I rarely go out to eat.
Yes, but in moderation and when I don't have to walk through it. Walking in the rain in NYC is kind of a pain, it goes sideways, and you get soaked regardless. Also right now it is raining, and for some reason I ache.
