For Aunt Evelyn
My Aunt Evie has sent me this questionairre twice now.
I told her she gave me my Friday topic. I'll answer it here.
Bearette did this one too on her blog.
Of course I can't stick to one word answers. That wouldn't be in character now, would it?
1. FIRST NAME? Carolyn - I've always hated my name. Sorry Mom.
2. WERE YOU NAMED AFTER ANYONE? Yes, my alcoholic grandmother who died after drinking sterno. That was on my Dad's side. On my Mom's side, her Dad liked the name Caroline, after a little girl he knew in school. (He liked to dunk her pigtails in the inkwells.) So the name was picked to please my Dad and my Grandpa. Did I mention I hate my name?
3. WHEN DID YOU LAST CRY? When I had my cat laid away. I also cried over the two puppies we lost. I have fulfilled my crying quota for the year in the last three months.
4. DO YOU LIKE YOUR HANDWRITING? I've been told it's like my Uncle Dan's. That's kind of cool. But I prefer to type.
5. WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE LUNCHMEAT? I like a veggie sanwich, like Subway makes.
6. IF YOU WERE ANOTHER PERSON WOULD YOU BE FRIENDS WITH YOU? Only if I didn't have to visit myself more than once every couple of weeks.

8. DO YOU STILL HAVE YOUR TONSILS? No
9. WOULD YOU BUNGEE JUMP? Bwack, bwack, bwack, bwack. That's me making chicken noises and flapping my arms. Hell, no!
10. WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE CEREAL? Frosted Lucky Charms, they're magically delicious.
11. DO YOU UNTIE YOUR SHOES WHEN YOU TAKE THEM OFF? Good grief, no.

13. WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE ICE CREAM FLAVOR? Chocolate chip, Dreyer's. That's the Edy's brand on the East coast.
14.SHOE SIZE? Ten wide. And why did all the damn stores quit carrying wides? What the hell is up with that?
5. RED OR PINK? Red. It's loud like me.
16. WHAT IS THE LEAST FAVORITE THING ABOUT YOURSELF? My tendency to get depressed and be crabby.

HA! Now I'm first!
LOL
I'm NEVER first here,YAY me!
I looove your answers!You always make me bust a gut:)
Oh I miss that too! Roaring around with a friend laughing and having fun. This whole adulthood thing is definately missing that activity.
Good answers. I like reading these kinds of things. It's hard to make friends as an adult. I am lucky I was able to hold onto friends from my younger days that I can still roar with laughter with.
I couldn't choose a favorite dessert either. Just as long as it had chocolate in it, I am a happy little piggy.
everyone loves ugly betty! it conflicts with the office though, time-wise :(
the dessert one is impossible.
The wide shoe thing? It was hell, hell I tell you, trying to find a pair of sandals my toes would not hang off the side of this past summer!
But according to my wv it's okay!
wv-esoiak
Actually I still Roar around with certain friends and the older I get the easier it is to do. hehehehehehehehe
I have done this one so many times but I will do it again, for you, and for another reason that you'll have to visit mah blog to see. But I'm thinking Sunday/Monday. The days, they are packed!!
PS #25 had me howling!!
My Aunt in law has sent my this twice too & I answered both times. The last time I answered it my answer about Rolling STones or Beetles I answered...
I liked beetles better except in the fall when they invade your home. Rolling Stones can hurt.
I agree with you about having a special relationship with a friend like in highschool. I miss those days too.:(
I'm up!
Ugly Betty- from the ABC website:
"Betty unwittingly loses "the book," a proof of the entire magazine, complete with un-retouched photos of a popular actress (guest star Sarah Jones) who looks less than lovely without a little computer magic. If the photos get out, it could create huge embarrassment for Mode. Wilhelmina plots to use the snafu to bring Daniel down. Meanwhile, Bradford Meade secretively inquires about Fey Sommer's final effects."
It was pretty funny. :)
Also, about #41-- LMAO!
Ack, I've gone Blogger Beta and I keep losing every comment. Appropros?...
This was fun to read. I may swipe this and use it for content on the days I'm devoid (which could be any day)
Hi Caroyln I finally made it by to say Hi and let you know that I have missed you. ;)
I love that you can say you grew up in the Pitts! LOL
I am sooo sooo wishing I had your gluten free baking talent!!!!
I'm so stealing this for my blog..
#43 is my favourite sound too! ;-)
