Another Survey/Getting to Know Me Exercise

- The Present -

1. Who were you with last night? Sadly, Charles and Goose.

2. What woke you up this morning? My cell phone ringing at 7:35. Nothing like getting woken up to You Ain't Much Fun Since I Quit Drinking by Toby Keith.

3. Where are you? The Office.

4. Is tomorrow going to be a good day? Yep. Tomorrow always holds the promise of Days born anew.

5. Did you kiss or hug anyone today? Not yet, but it is still early.

6.When was the last time you cried? I guess when Mom was sick a few weeks ago. Cried is a bit strong a word, but I was emotional.

-The PAST-

7.Ever thrown up in public? Yep. I can't recall a specific time but I am sure it has happened.

8. Passed out because of alcohol? Yessir, I have. Let's just say the following day is not so cool.

9. What's on your mind RIGHT NOW? I am wishing that August were here so I would be at Purdue. I AM SO EXCITED!!

-The FUTURE -

10. Would you take a bullet for anyone? Not anyone. A good friend, or family member.

12. What kind of home would you like? A lake house with boat dock that I can fish/swim off of.

13. What do you want to be when you grow up? A Professor with Tenure. TENURE is key here.

14. Where do you see yourself in 5 years?Hopefully at a D-I university pursuing tenure. My new goal is a non-dash university. As in Texas A&M Proper, not Texas A&M University-Commerce.

- IN GENERAL -

15.Do you like candy necklaces? Not really, they get all sticky and they don't taste that great either. Giving Pearl Necklaces on the other hand...

20. When was the last time you fell over or ran into something? I run into shit all the time. My hands, if you look closely, are always banged up from knocking them into something whilst I walk. Here's the story: I got hit in the eye with a baseball in second grade. It fucked up my depth perception. I trouble judging how far things are away, and I refuse to wear corrective lenses (FUCK YOU GLASSES!!!). An unfortunate side effect of this is that I bump into shit all the time.

21. Do you listen to music every day? Couldn't make it through a day without it.

22. Do you still go trick or treating? Not so much. I think Super T out and about with children sounds like a nightmare.

23. What was the last thing you ate? Turkey Sand-Wich. It was deliscious.

24. Are you a fast typer? Eh. I can hold my own. I know I can type a 17 page paper in 8 hours.

25. About how many people have you liked? A ton. I always meet new people, and I really like women. So I have "liked" a bunch of people in both senses of the word.

26. What are you doing this weekend? Nothing that I know of...drinking with my brother JoJo I think. Next week is going to be the bomb, however. Old South starts on Tuesday, and KP and I are going to the Ranger Game on Friday, and Crawfish Cookout is on Saturday. The Old Lady will be in Las Vegas with her brother also. I won't have to worry about maintaining a relative level of sobriety. Good Times, Good Times...

27. Whats your favorite type of SODA? Big Red. Hands Down.

28. Have you ever moved? I moved to Commerce, and I am dying to relocate to Indiana. I may have mentioned this previously, however.

29. Have you ever won an award? Yes, I have. I won Best/Distinguished Masters Student in 2005, and I won the Houghton Mifflin Award for Masters Student in 2004. I have also won a ton of sports related awards.

30. What do you want to do right now? Write a book review for Theory class.

31. Are you listening to music right now? Chris Knight on his Myspace page. His Trailer Tapes recordings sound like that album is going to be amazing. It is so gritty and raw. Most amazing songwriter of this generatiion. I swear he is the Southern White Trash Bob Dylan. Amazing, simply amazing.

32. Do you like someone right now? I am kind of partial to this chick named Crys...

33. Whats your favorite quote? "My heart was fashioned to be susceptible of love and sympathy, and when wrenched by misery to vice and hatred, it did not endure the violence of the change without torture such as you cannot even imagine." From Frankenstein. I LOVE that book. I have read it at least a thousand times. All the monster wants is love and companionship, and Victor is so cruel that he will not allow it. A very apt Creator/Creation metaphor.

34. How long 'til your birthday? Roughly 7 months give a take a week or two.

35. When were you the saddest in your whole life? When I found out that Crys had a brain tumor. Most decidely NOT good times...

36. What time is it? 10:27 in the am.

37. Do you use EBay to buy or sell? Nope.

38. What makes you mad? Stupid drivers, and Stupid People in General. People who don't read for Graduate Courses. People who don't read for graduate courses and feel the need to expound on the topics at hand anyway.

39. Have you ever had a song written about you? Nope. I need to speak to someone about this. It is a tragedy of the Shakespearian sort that no lyrics have abounded regarding the "Superness" of T.

40. What song makes you cry? Eh. Songs don't really do that. However, Down the River by Chris Knight comes close. It is a song about a guy who kills the guy who killed his brother.

41. What song makes you smile? Billie Jean by Michael Jackson.

42. What do you like to listen to before you go to bed? Nothing much. I usually read until I get sleepy. I am reading "The Heart is a Lonely Hunter" by Carson McCullers right. I am not sure how good it is yet. I will let you know when I know more.

43. Would you consider a boob job? Nah. Big boobs would really undermine the whole "Super T" image. Plus, no one would take me seriously anymore.

45. If you were a crayon what color would you be? Turd Knuckle Dunn.


46. What makes you happy? Blo...uh...uh...uh...Beer. Yeah, thats it. Beer.
