I don’t normally do these things… But since @kungfury tagged me, why not…
Wait… Two of them? … I got suckered… lol
1. What food do you crave most often?
I normally gravitate towards Either Mexican or Italian… I’ll say Cavatelli or spaghetti since I am making a batch of sauce today. Really, I enjoy home cooked meals because it allows for creativity and expand what I can do…
2. Can you swim?
Not very well… I came close to drowning once and it put me off for a number of years. I’m better with it now, but still not that great.
3. Can you whistle?
Yep… it is the surest way to make sure my dog knows I’m home! lol
4. Home on a beach or in the mountains?
I’ll say the mountains because of nature… forest regions are relaxing
5. Hotdogs or Hamburgers?
Hamburgers totally… gotta have cheese, lettuce, and maybe a bit of a creamy dressing on it. This also goes for Italian sausage patties, porkburgers, etc. There is a local restaurant in my town that make a Creamy Parmesan dress that rules on burgers from the grill.
6. Shower or tub?
Showers for cleaning, but a tub to get muscles to unwind… I’ve had back issues after catching my folks from falling so sometimes a good soak is needed
7. How many TVs are in your house?
I got 4 in my house and I only use one. That'll be my one. Rest are my folks… same as @kungfury actually.
8. Do you own a gun?
Not personally but I have fired several Glocks in my time… respect people that own them and are careful on gun control. I’ve got a fair number of ex-military friends.
9. Favorite type of food?
Double down on Italian or pizza.
10. Favorite hobbies?
While I do love movies, video games, and reading, the thing that I most into is tabletop gaming! Be it board games, card game, or RPGs like Dungeons and Dragons… it all good to me. If I had to choose one, it would be the RPGs. World building and shared storytelling is such a wonderful experience to have with a group of friends!
11. Favorite time of year?
I have horrendous allergies so I’ll say winter but spring is nice as well.
12. Favorite drink in the morning?
Orange Juice.
13. Favorite outdoors activities?
I enjoy going out for walks. I would love to go cycling... ever since I’ve hurt my back I have put back on weight that I’d love to lose.
14. Favorite drinks?
Arnold Palmer (1/2 Ice tea, ½ lemonade mixed together), There is a Ginger Ale w/ Orangeade that I like, and Iced Jasmine Green Tea.
15. Things I love?
I love tutoring… it is a part-time job for me…. And I love the gaming as stated above. Quiet times hanging out with friends… all sounds good to me!
16. Do I have a crush?
Not really… I was deeply hurt by one person in particular and it has given me anxiety about things. It was a royal mindfuck/gaslighting situation. She would roll back into my life every so often, but I hope that she knows the bridge is completely burned now… time will tell.
Now, if you mean do I find people interesting and want to learn more, then I have a few crushes… both in the real world and here on SG… haha
17. 4 turn on’s:
Long hair – A girl with long hair will always catch my attention. Eyes – because having eye contact when talking is a wonderful thing in my opinion. Tattoos – depending on what there is to the design, it can be amazing… if it is the flash from the walk, I’m not nearly as invested unless there is something special to it. Humor – I can be a raging comedy machine sometimes so I would want her to have that kind of flair as well… I have been told that I can be hard to keep up with in the wit department, so I don’t want to be alone… haha
18. 4 turn offs:
Self-important – Having pride is one thing, but trying to act like you never stink? … The wit cannon is loaded… haha. Lack of opinion – You have to have some interest in the world today… if you are living in a vacuum and not paying attention, you are out. Rude – I watch how people treat waiters/waitresses, checkout help, and custodians… it tells you how they would like to treat everyone in the world. “Not a book reader” – I believe John Waters said “If you go home with somebody, and they don't have books, don't fuck 'em!” … and I agree
19. How I feel right now:
Exhausted – I’m still working both jobs at this point and taking care of my parents (They are in the High Risk category for COVID-19) but now not getting much down time for the things I enjoy. My sister has to stay away because she works in medical clinics and would be a risk to stop by.
… but I will make it through.
20. My current relationship status:
Single… see above on the ex… I’m scarred… I have social anxiety already in my background and severe trust issues after this last go-around. I miss intimacy, caring, and love… but my head won’t allow it. …. Who knows, but maybe someday that right person will show up… but not today.
One down… one more to go!
1. Color:
Blue… defi
2. Animal:
I love dogs first and cats second… dogs first because I am much less allergic to them.
3. Song:
Ouch… Too many. If it is Queen, Elton John, or ELO I am always down… “Bother” by Stone Sour will always have a very close place in my heart unrelated to the subject material… someday I’ll talk about it.
As of today - "This train Don't Stop Here Anymore" by Elton John
4. Ice Cream flavor:
Salted Caramel Ice Cream – bonus points if it is a milkshake!
5. Food:
Italian and Mexican as above
6. Parfum:
I will assume I can switch to cologne… which for me is either Cool Water or Acqua Di Gio
7. Clothing:
I love wearing jeans… if it is warm, basic t-shirt for a top; for cold, a Henley…. Keep it simple for regular day. If it is something more formal, there is nothing wrong with a nice suit and tie, preferably something grey or silver for the shirt… I’m weird.
8. Hobbie:
See tabletop gaming and other things as above!
9. Fear:
Social anxiety and trust jump to mind as see above. I used to be terrified of heights, but after working in the theatre in college and for small companies, that has gone out the window.
10. Phrase:
Anything Bill Hicks… He could have saved his generation and all after but dies too young…
I hate to tag too many people in … just not my way. I would like to see what @brisen and @haub would answer. If anyone else would like to jump in, please do…. My recent binge on Memes has brought a new wave of people. I have been enjoying seeing their profiles and trying to learn the way they see themselves and the world.
