For Adults

I found this on a friend's facebook page and I thought it was funny.
 
Here are 34 questions for adults:

1. What bill do you hate the most? 
I don't pay that many of the bills... but right now I'm struggling  when we pay baby-sitters.  It's just so hard being so far from family and anytime we need extra help with the kids, it costs us money.

2. What do you really want to be doing right now? 
Receiving a head-to-toe massage
 
3.  If you had a day off from work, what would you do?
Well, "work" has changed over the last few years... if I had a day off from work, I would spent it with our children and working around our house.  If I had a day off from children and housework, I would love to have a spa day, go shopping, and have a date with my hubby.

4. How many colleges did you attend? 
One undergraduate school, one study-abroad program, one graduate school, one post-graduate certification program... so four?

5. Why did you choose the shirt that you have on right now?  
Huge nightgown... it fits and is cool.

6. What are your thoughts on gas prices?  
I like that I remember when gas was less than a dollar a gallon (it was once in high school)...and I wish that was the case still.

7. First thought when the alarm goes off in the morning? 
By alarm, I'm assuming you mean my three-year-old.  My first thought is, "Yes, Sweetheart."

8. Last thought before going to sleep last night? 
Lord, please help tomorrow go smoothly... its going to be a big day.

9. Do you miss being a child?  
Not really.  I see my children playing together and how much they love each other, and I never had that in a sibling.  Some parts of childhood was nice, but I wouldn't go back if I had the choice.

10. What errand/chore do you despise the most? 
I don't like vacuuming.  I also don't like that when I vacuum, the floor is dirty again before I even put the vacuum away.

11. Get up early or sleep in?  
I prefer to sleep in, but it has a much earlier definition than it did when I was younger.

12. Have you found love yet?
Yes I have.
 
13. Favorite lunch meat? 
Ham

14. What do you get every time you go to Wal-Mart?  
Whole milk for the kids

15. Ocean or Lake?  
Both

16. Do you think Marriage is an outdated ritual?  
No way.  Marriage is one of my favorite parts of my life.

17. What famous person (past or present) would you like to have dinner with?  
My ancestors.  I would love to hear their stories and how their lives took shape.

18. Have you ever crashed your vehicle?  
Crashed is such a big word.  I have hit a deer (actually the deer hit me), and I have bounced off a guard-rail.  I really wouldn't call either one a "crash" but I was definitely very lucky in both.

19. Ever had to use a fire extinguisher for it's intended purpose? 
No.

20. Strangest place you ever brushed your teeth?  
I don't know... maybe in the shower?

21. Somewhere you have never been but want to go.
Australia and Asia

22. At this point in your life, would you rather start a new career or a new relationship? 
I would prefer not to, but I have learned to never say never because you never know what is coming around the bend.

23. How old are you? 
33

24. Do you have a go-to person? 
Yes

25. Are you where you want to be in life?  
I am happy with where I am, but I don't think about being "where I want to be."  I definitely have many of the things I've always dreamed of having, but I think life (and marriage) is an on-going journey, so there are many other things I want out of life.

26. Growing up, what were your favorite cartoons? 
Muppet Babies, and Sesame Street (I guess Sesame Street's not a cartoon)

27. What about you do you think has changed?  
I think I'm quicker to apologize than I used to be, and slower to respond when I'm upset.  I've learned to give it an hour to keep from responding in a rash manner.  I think it has also helped that I married a man who gets upset so rarely and usually makes me laugh when I'm upset.  I get over things much more quickly than I used to.

28. Looking back at high school, were they the best years of your life?  
No way.  They were fun and challenging, and impacted the person I became, but definitely not the best years of my life.

29. Are there times you still feel like a kid? 
Not often.  Sometimes I'm able to feel like I'm back in college, but again, not often.

30. Did you have a pager?  
No

31. Where was the hang out spot when you were a teenager?  
I have no idea.  I know where I hung out -- my house, my boyfriend's house, my friends' houses.  There you go.

32. Were you the type of kid you would want your children to hang out with? 
Depends on the age...

33. Was there a teacher or authority figure that stood out?  
Sure -- Miss Sunderhaft in middle school and Mr. Rose, Mr. DeVries and Mr. Green in high school.  Probably my harp teacher too, Mrs. Heger.

34. Do you tell stories that start with when I was your age?  
Yes I do.  I've earned it.
