So am I just the only person in the world who's excited about the Olympics? I was buzzing happily around today, letting everybody know that the Opening Ceremony was tonight, and the average reaction was "Oh that's nice. Hey, did you hear about blah blah blah..."
Well, forget y'all, then. I love the Olympics, both the summer and winter games. In fact, I'm that addicted weirdo who'll sit up till all hours, watching all those obscure broadcasts on ESPN late night. (Except curling. That, I just don't get.)
Can't wait to see the speed skater Apolo Anton Ohno compete. I LUFFED him in the '04 games. *waves Team Apolo flag*

[6] Beatles or Stones? BeatlesBeatlesBeatles all the way.

[7] If you had to pick one person on earth who should die, who would it be? I would name a certain prominent conservative republican political figure, but I'm afraid of the Secret Service popping out of my computer screen and hauling me away.

[8] Beer, wine or hard liquor? Mountain dew. I'll leave it up to you to decide whether I'm referring to the soda or the homemade brew the soda is named for.

[11] If you could have any super power what would it be? Mind-control. Bwahahaha.

[13] How many drinks does it take to get you drunk? Who've you been talking to?! O_o

[14] Where is Jimmy Hoffa? He's playing poker with Elvis and the Lindbergh baby, who's presumably all grown up by now.

[15] Hair color you most like someone you're dating to have? Don't think I like one more than any of the others, really, though I guess I learn more toward dark hair. My only real hair preference is that it's clean.

[28] If you are straight, what person of the same sex would you do it with? Jessica Alba, or Keira Knightley. Or Aishwarya Rai, or Shakira. Or Kate Winslet, or Ziyi Zhang, or Lucy Lawless, or... I don't think I'm as straight as I was five minutes ago.

[29] Where do you want to live when you are old and brittle? Ireland. Hopefully I'll get there before the brittle-ness sets in.

[38] What is the last thing you'd ever tell someone? Good bye. What do you mean, that's not what you meant?

3) When I was five: I was shorter than I am now.

4) High School is: only a memory, praise be to Jesus.

6) I once saw: something. Very hush-hush.

7) There's this girl I know who: has broken her back three or four times. (That would be my best friend, actually.)

8) Once, at a bar: I was being hit on by a man with four teeth (he was close enough for me to count them), so I just about crawled into a friend of mine's lap to make Goober think my friend and I were together "like that." It helped that my friend was a pretty big guy.

9) By noon I'm usually: hungry. And probably sleepy again.

10) Last night: Didn't I answer this already?

11) If I only had: a brain, a heart, a home, da nerve... Wizard of Oz doesn't scare me anymore.

12) Next time I go to church: there will be snowball fights in hell.

13) Terry Schiavo: should have been left the hell alone by all that media.

14) What worries me most: is how rapidly stupid people are breeding.

15) When I turn my head left: there's a wall.

16) When I turn my head right: there's a window.

17) You know I'm lying when: I nod and smile while listening to the president speak.

20) By this time next year: I will be a year older.

21) A better name for me would be: Cate. Just because I like that name.

22) I have a hard time understanding: Sean Paul when he talks. That accent's just a bit too thick for me to hear through.

23) If I ever go back to school I'll: Already there, I'm afraid.

24) You know I like you if: I talk to you.

25) If I won an award, the first person I'd thank would be: me mumsy.

26) Darwin, Mozart, Slim Pickens & Geraldine Ferraro: would probably all be offended by their inclusion in this insane quiz

27) Take my advice, never: let your guard down around a two-year-old.

28) My ideal breakfast is: served about noon.

29) A song I love, but do not have is: "Sugar, Sugar" by Baby Bash and Frankie J. Got to my hands on that song.

30) If you visit my hometown, I suggest you come to: love your own hometown that much more.

31) Tulips, character flaws, microchips & track stars: I'm really wondering where you got the nerve to ask if I had psychiatric problems.

32) Why doesn't everyone: just realize that I know best?

33) If you spend the night at my house: you'd have to share sleeping space with my dogs. The house really belongs to them.

34) I'd stop my wedding: if the groom told me he didn't like the Saints. "Get out, bitch!!1!"

35) The world could do without: half the people who are living in it.

36) I'd rather lick the belly of a cockroach than: ...I can't think of many things that cockroach!belly would be preferable to.

37) My favorite blonde is: How'd we get back to my mom again?

38) Paper clips are more useful than: the president.

39) If I do anything well, it's: finishing memes.
