2. Okee dokey...
I haven't answered these in a while.

1. It's an extension of the letter C. ;)

2. 32

3. I'm about as straight as they come. I never have even fantasized about another woman, but the more I read in here, the more I feel like I'm missing out on something. I just don't feel compelled to experiment, however.

4. Caucasian of the southern European variety

5. I was knocked out by a goat when I was five years-old. :P

BTW: I've read the term "pansexual" before, but what does it mean?

21. All righty
1. Catherine
2. 35
3. Straight
4. White
5. I'm a little obsessive-compulsive, and one of the ways that it manifests is that I have all the clocks in my house set to different times, and I know what they all are. The clock in the kitchen is 6 minutes fast, the clock in the living room is 7 minutes fast, the one in our bedroom and the watch on my wrist are always exactly 5 minutes fast. My husband, bless his tolerant soul, finds it amusing and just asks me what time it is when he needs to know. :D

37. But of course!
I'll post some honeymoon photos when we get back.

As for L.P.'s protestations at not being invited, I can only say that I would love to have invited the world, but this thing has swiftly turned into one of those affairs you see on Bravo or Style Network reality shows. I mean, we're lucky we can afford to get all our family to this shindig!

My mom keeps telling us that, someday, we'll wish we hadn't spent all this money, but her protestations have fallen on deaf ears.

"1. your first name if you are comfortable telling us"
Not a question of comfort, I just don't think it is a good idea since I work for an elected official.

"2. your age (can be a vague age group: late 20's)"
Lioness age X 1 & 1/3, +1 or 2.

"3. sexual orientation"
hetero

"4. ethnicity"
Now there's a complicated question. Yankee (mostly), Cornish, French Norman, French Canadian, German, American Indian (a little).

"5. something odd/unusual/unique about yourself that you would like us to know"
Not much worth telling.

"and no i am not working for the gov't."
I am. Or rather the State of Ohio.

68. "People who disagree with me always die horribly."
I disagree. A few of them aren't dead yet, and at least one died peacefully in his sleep. :P

Then again, I fully expect to die horribly, so perhaps you're right. You didn't say EVERYONE who disagrees with you dies horribly.

78. "reasonably straight"
"Reasonable" is not a word I often hear people use to describe their sexuality or sex lives. :P

What is "PUI?"

I didn't realize you were Canadian? What brought you down to the states originally? And what possessed you to stay here?

80. Yeah, "reasonably" isn't the right word at all and I chose it unadvisedly.
Edited on Mon Nov-12-07 09:17 PM by crim son
I should have typed 85%, and I apologize.

Yes, I'm Canadian. My father is American though so when I was a teenager we moved to the States from Vancouver. I've been here since I was fifteen and don't belong in either country any more. Why did I stay? Sigh. I dunno. My parents have stayed down here, much to my mother's despair. However she has become a naturalized citizen of the U.S. so now I guess we're all Americans.
On edit: PUI is posting under the influence.

5. My life and outlook has changed so much over the past ten years, that I'm afraid that I will probably be alone for the rest of my life. On the other hand, I like being alone, but I just think there will come a day when I regret withdrawing from the world, even though I have complete faith in Buddhism, which teaches me that I'm happier this way. And I am really happy right now and have been for some time.
