Taking Some Time For Me

Things have been pretty damn crazy around here and since I'm getting rather tired of this 'thing' taking over my life, I'm not going to talk about 'it' and post something completely off the topic.

Yesterday was my friend Lori's birthday and after we all went out to dinner to celebrate we ended up back at our house where the topic of discussion was:

What would your answers be to James Lipton's list of 10 Questions from Inside the Actors Studio?

It was a lively discussion, with some very interesting answers. Below are the questions along with my answers.

1. What is your favorite word? I have a lot of 'favorite' words but the one I always come back to is 'Serendipity'... I like the meaning AND it's fun to say.
2. What is your least favorite word? Barge... It's such an unattractive word to not only say but also hear... Also, It rhymes with the shortened version of my name and I hate my name, so there you go.
   
3. What turns you on? Unfortunately, food. No really, I get excited just thinking about the next meal... Especially if it's something I didn't have to prepare.
   
4. What turns you off? Hypocrisy
5. What sound do you love? When a baby giggles... You know, like this.
6. What sound do you hate? Whining... Or should I say Whiiiiiiiiiiiiiininnnnnnnnnggggg!
7. What is your favorite curse word? I have a slew I use, mostly when I'm driving, but my standard expletive when something isn't working the way it's supposed to is... 'Son of a Bitch!'
8. What profession other than yours would you like to attempt? Comedic Actress or just a Comedienne. I've wanted to be an actress ever since Jr. high... Nothing major, just regional theater would make me happy or stand-up but I've never had the guts to go for it.
9. What profession would you not like to do? I've watched a lot of episodes of 'Dirty Jobs' and hands down, the one that grossed me out the most was the time Mike Rowe worked at the 'Waste Treatment Plant'... In fact, any job having to do with the maintenance of human fecal matter is strictly not for me.
10. If heaven exists, what would you like to hear God say when you arrive at the pearly gates? "You made a difference"... However, I really liked my daughters answer of, 'The line for the never ending buffet begins right over there.' Hmmmm, I wonder where she gets it from?

Now it's your turn...
