Another Brokeback 20 Q's
ednbarby:
1) Did your folks run you off? In a way. They insisted I go to college, which was fine by me because I always wanted to go anyway.
2) Does your job get tiresome? Yes, at times. But it generally doesn't make my feet hurt or my hair smell like cigarette smoke.
3) When it comes to clothes, do you have any resistance? Plenty. Not much of a clothes horse. Every now and then, though, I've been known to partake in a little Retail Therapy, followed shortly thereafter by Buyer's Remorse.
4) Who do you miss so much you can hardly stand it? My Mom and my Mother-In-Law. It really is true that only the good die young.
5) Is getting together with you like seeing the pope? Kind of. I'm not much of a church social sort of person and don't do much traveling.
6) Have you ever confronted someone for speaking with a slop-bucket mouth? I'm usually the one who gets confronted for that. :o
7) Have you ever offered to buy a rodeo clown -- or other person you didn't know well -- a drink? Did it work? Not in order to pick someone up - just being friendly - taking turns buying rounds sort of thing. And yes, it worked - we both got drunk.
8 ) As far as you know, is there anything interesting up there in Heaven? As far as I know, there is no Heaven. But yes, there are plenty of interesting things up in the sky.
9) Do you play an instrument? Do you run the sheep off with it, or are you pretty good? I've attempted to play several and run the sheep off (somewhere) every time.
10) What was your dad right about? Just about everything except his choices for President.
11) Are you savin for a ranch yourself -- or something else big? Saving for a place on the beach someday. And my son's college education.
12) Have you fixed up your place real nice? No. But I bet I could if I put my mind to it.
13) Do you drink coffee, or are you from Texas? Yes, and NO.
14) Are you pretty good with a can opener -- by which I mean, are you good at getting other people to open up? I'm GREAT with a can-opener. People just seem to want to tell me their life stories. Guess I'm the sympathetic type. It takes an industrial-strength one to work on me, though - generally a revelatory movie or some such.
15) You been to Mexico? Yeah, I been to Mexico. Is there a problem? (Cozumel on my honeymoon.)
16) Your Uncle Harold is sick, maybe even dying. Do you leave your new lover to be at his bedside? Depends on who my new lover is. If he looks anything like Ennis, HELL no.
17) If you were bored on a Saturday night, would you smarten up to go to a church social? To be with the Fire and Brimstone crowd? No, thanks. I'll stay home and watch old Kojak reruns.
18) Guard the sheep or eat em? That is, would you break the rules if it seemed important? If the rules were unfair, yes.
19) Could you get by on a couple of high-altitude f*cks a year? Depends, again, on who I'm f*cking. Generally, yes. But if I were desperately in love, no.
20) Are you the swearing kind? F*ck yeah. Oh. And the promising kind, too.
