Meme Time
Michele has 10 questions:
1. What is your favorite word? Currently it's "extrude". I like words that sound like what they mean. Onomatopoeia it's called, I think.
2. What is your least favorite word? "Burglary". It's really difficult for me to pronounce correctly. For some reason, I always try to say 'buggery' instead.....which is pretty funny, but embarrassing when you're in a courtroom.
3. What turns you on creatively, spiritually or emotionally? Music. Classical music for legal writing. And Big Band/Swing when I'm writing code. The Ramones or Doug & the Slugs when I'm driving.
4. What turns you off? Too much background noise. I get distracted easily--Hey! Wanna ride bikes?
5. What is your favorite curse word? Tough question. Ummm, prolly "SHIT!". Learning to swear in Spanish was one of the best things I ever did. That way most people aren't sure whether you cursed or not, so you can use it most anywhere. I once had a fairly religious boss whose favorite swear word was "Peaches!". That always cracked me up.
6. What sound or noise do you love? A child's laughter, especially WildChild's. They're so uninhibited, and get such joy out of life.
7. What sound or noise do you hate? A fork scraping across a china plate. *shudder* I can't even stand to think about it.
8. What profession other than your own would you like to attempt? Veterinarian. Kids and animals, not that much difference.
9. What profession would you not like to do? Social worker. Dealing with their bureaucracy and clients on a daily basis would drive me insane. I don't know how they do it.
10. If Heaven exists, what would you like to hear God say when you arrive at the Pearly Gates? "Ooops! Sorry, scheduling error. You'll have to go back."
Your turn.
