Posted on November 16, 2018 Updated on February 9, 2019

Two months ago, on Friday, September 14, fellow blogger Bottomless Coffee 007 requested I answer the following 26 questions. I got busy and I forgot all about it (Sorry, Coffee). Here we go…

[1.] Who are you named after?
The first name is for the second longest reigning British Monarch. My second name came from my paternal-paternal great-grandmother…and my father misspelled it! My last name is English-Welsh.

[2.] Do you like your handwriting?
Sometimes.

[3.] What’s your favorite lunchmeat?
I don’t eat that stuff. I’ve watched it being made.

[4.] Longest relationship?
That depends…
♡ The longest is my dad.
♡ Friend? A girl I met in nursery school. Still friends after 49 years. Graduated HS together. My dad dated her mom when they were in HS, together. Oh, the parties and boyfriends…
♡ Significant other? My Vietnam vet. We met 26 years ago but, were otherwise ‘engaged’. We have been a permanently-attached-at-the-hip pair for 7 1/2 years.

[5.] Do you still have your tonsils?
Yep.

[6.] Would you bungee jump?
Never.

[7.] Do you untie your shoes when you take them off?
If they have laces, yes…most of the time. I have a tall pair of boots that have laces & a zipper. I just use the zipper. Lacing those things are a pain in the ass.

[8.] Favorite ice cream?
I don’t eat ice cream. I like Italian sorbeto or frozen coconut milk with chocolate & peanut butter.

[9.] What’s the first thing you notice about people?
Stature, demeanor and gait…then the clothes.

[10.] Football or baseball?
I loathe professional sports but, local, AAA/AA baseball is really fun to go to.

[11.] What color pants are you wearing?
Dark olive-green.

[12.] Last thing you ate?
Cereal.

[13.] If you are a crayon, what color are you?
Cornflower blue. That was always my favorite crayon in the big box.

[14.] Favorite smell?
Burning white sage.

[15.] Who is the last person you spoke to on the phone?
My buddy, Ray.

[16.] Hair color?
Very dark brown.

[17.] Eye Color?
Hazel.

[18.] Favorite food to eat?
Organic dark chocolate with mint.

[19.] Scary movie or happy ending?
I prefer science fiction, action, suspense or a thought-provoking drama.

[20.] Last movie you watched?
At a movie theatre, Darkest Hour. There is a reason why Gary Oldman won an Academy Award for Best Actor. He becomes Churchill. I have been following Oldman ever since Dracula.

[21.] Favorite holiday?
Halloween. BOO.

[22.] Beer or wine?
Between those two, wine. But, I’d rather have a Margarita with Anejo tequila or a Flying Grasshopper with aged, single-barrel rum.

[23.] Favorite day of the week?
They are all the same to me.

[24.] Three favorite bloggers you want to learn about?
I already know quite a bit about my three fave bloggers.

[25.] The additional info you didn’t know you wanted?
I drive a gun-metal gray 2008 Nissan Frontier 4 x 4 with suicide doors.

[26.] When’s the last time you got on the scale?
At my chiro’s office on Wednesday.

[Bonus Question (that’s more than 26…)] Who’s your favorite superhero?
That is tough. I have so many. I am a Marvel geek for sure. On the screen, I like what Chris Evans has done with Captain America and I like what Hugh Jackman did with Wolverine, even if he was a foot too tall. In the comics, Jean Grey (originally Marvel Girl, 1963)…all day, everyday.
