1. Do you sleep with your closet doors open or closed?
I sleep with my closet door closed but my husband’s is usually open. I try to keep his closed too though so the cat doesn’t get in there and tear up all his shoelaces.
2. Favourite pizza topping?
I really just like extra cheese. Kind of “cheesy” right??
3. Do you sleep with your covers on or off?
I always like to have covers. Even in this hot Texas summer. I almost always have a blanket wrapped around me when I’m watching TV on the couch too.
4. Have you ever stolen a street sign before?
No, never. I know people do this but I don’t really understand why…
5. Do you like to use post-it notes?
I have post it notes stuck all over my desk at work but I never go back and reference them. Then they just make a mess! I guess since they end up being nothing but clutter I’m going to have to say no – I don’t like to use post-it notes (even though I use a ton of them!)
6. Do you cut out coupons but then never use them?
All the time. I always print out the craft store coupons for the week, but half the time I don’t end up using them so I have a purse full of expired coupons.

Usually only on my toes. Every once and a while I will paint my fingernails.
8. Do you have freckles?
Some. Not the cute kind on your nose and cheeks, just random freckles here and there.
9. Do you always smile for pictures?
I find that my serious face is kind of goofy (or at least I think it’s goofy) so I always smile when I’m getting my picture taken. When I got my bridal portraits done the photographer kept trying to get me to be serious, but I couldn’t do it – I kept laughing. I’m not meant to be serious I guess!

Sometimes.
15. Prefer to write in pen or pencil?

Absolutely!
20. Do you still watch cartoons?
I really don’t care for most cartoons anymore.
21. What’s your least favourite movie?
Idiocracy. If you’ve never seen it, don’t. Wanted is equally bad.

Up, Wall-E, Beauty and the Beast, Gone with the Wind, Bridges of Madison County, The Natural, Paint Your Wagon, The Sting, Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid.

46. Are you afraid of heights?
I never thought so, but as I get older I get more and more unsteady on my feet when I’m up high, especially if I’m close to an edge. I don’t really feel afraid as much as shaky, but I suppose that’s what being afraid of heights is like…
47. Do you watch soap operas?
No – I hate them!!

Not recently, but for a while there I was getting one every few days. Such a weird feeling!!
59. Take a vitamin daily?
I did when I was younger but not anymore. The last time I tried to take one it made me throw up so I haven’t wanted to since. I don’t usually eat breakfast so it’s a little too hard on my stomach to take a vitamin in the morning.

71. Can you curl your tongue?
Yes
