Welcome to Sunday Stealing. Here we will steal all types of questions from every corner of the blogosphere. Our promise to you is that we will work hard to find the most interesting and intelligent questions. Cheers to all of us thieves!
This week’s astonishingly random questions were stolen from Love Me Some Surveys, who loves surveys.
Survey Asks …
1. Did you/will you have coffee or some other form of caffeine today?
I had hot tea with lemon when we went out for breakfast, which is fairly unusual. It was cold outside!
Tell Me Something Good
2. Who did you last have a text conversation with, and what was it about?
I almost never have text conversations; reading on my phone tends to make me cranky. BTW, do we REALLY need advice on how to send a sarcastic text?
Yet on February 25, I texted one of my oldest friends, who had been in the music biz for a long time, that it was the birthday of John Doe from the band X. They had spoken favorably of him in the past. What I didn’t know is that John is a fellow Piscean, born the same year as we were.
3. Are there regular trains in and out of your town/city?
Technically, no, but functionally, yes. The Albany/Rensselaer station is across the Hudson River in Rensselaer County.
4. Have you ever been hospitalized due to dehydration?
No. But I avoid walking in deserts.
I Go To Sleep
5. Someone texts/IMs you just as you’re about to go to sleep. Do you reply?
Not unless it is urgent. Then again, I’ve likely plugged in my phone downstairs before I go to bed upstairs, so I’d be unlikely to know about it until morning anyway. My daughter knows that if she messages me and I don’t reply in an hour, I’m likely nowhere near my cellphone, the usual state of affairs if I’m at home. That’s why God created the landline.
6. Do you grind your teeth?
Not to my knowledge.
7. When you listen to music with headphones, do you keep the volume low enough to hear surrounding noise, or do you blast it?
Definitely loud enough to drown out surrounding noise, though I wouldn’t say I BLAST it.
8. Are you wearing nail polish?
Not since Halloween 1978.
9. Do you have an ice maker in your refrigerator door?
Not in the door but in the freezer section, which I used this week.
10. Do you have a friend named James?
Definitely good acquaintances – a regular and occasional speaker at the FFAPL book reviews on Tuesdays, a guy I’ve known since grade school, a local author, a couple of guys at church, a guy from Alaska who took me to lunch when he was visiting his daughter in my area, and probably others. My great-great-grandfather, James Archer, fought in the American Civil War.
Thank you for playing! Please come back next week.
