Lame Friday Five

Cheney's Got a Gun
1. Do you have good hand-eye coordination?
Not necessarily, but I am a surprisingly good shot.

2. Have you ever held a gun?
Yes.

3. What do you think of toy guns?
Eh, I'm not worked up over them, but I probably wouldn't buy one for my offspring.

4. When is the last time you asked for forgiveness?
Olivia...before she left. I made the mistake of saying the *wrong* thing and had to make ammends.

5. Your favorite Aerosmith song:
I don't have one. This question sucks.

Alt. Friday Five

You say it's your birthday
In honour of two fabulous women's birthdays today, and the fact that I am on vacation, I am recycling a set of questions from last April.

From the altfriday5:

1. Which is the best birthday you've ever had? Why?
My 23rd birthday was pretty incredible...it involved a lot of liquor, a birthday party of about 100 ppl, and me channeling Eddie and Patsy for most of the night. I spent my first day of 23 with my first hangover, but it was well worth the pain.

2. Which is the worst birthday you've ever had? Why?
My 26th. I organized a big Morroccan dinner at Marrakesh and about 25 people showed up. Fun, no? No. People kept coming and leaving and my boyfriend at the time was an hour late. The money situation was a nightmare as was trying to play host to so many people from so many backgrounds. I will never EVER do that again. It was miserable.

3. What do you expect to have happen on a typical birthday? (i.e., you expect to get presents, you expect people to wish you a happy birthday, you expect to have a party, etc.) How do you feel if these expectations are not met?
Presents. Love. Phone calls. Flowers. Visits. I warn people of the birthday countdown...I cannot understand people who try *not* to celebrate their birthday.

4. How did your family celebrate your birthday when you were a child?
I can't remember. My grandfather and I had close birthdays, so we'd always get a boysenberry pie (our favorite) with two candles and have a family dinner. Usually my parents threw a party or took us out to an amusement park. One year I had a sleepover with 25 girls...that was an experience TPing, boy howdy.

5. You have infinite amounts of all resources. Describe your ideal birthday.
I fly all my friends, first class naturally, to the Amalfi Coast and host a week-long celebration filled with good wine and fantastic food. Everyone is charged with the task of eating, drinking, and being merry AND celebrating me!
