Cream

3)The last thing you bought and why?
Lunch. I just bought it because I had to eat

8. .
1)How was you New Years? Quiet. I posted on DU and talked on the phone, then went to bed at about 9:30.

2)How do you take your coffee? I don't drink coffee.

3)The last thing you bought and why? I bought some bras so I could take sexy pictures in cute new bras.

4)Did you get any lousy gifts during the holidays...did you return them? I got slippers that were too small. I gave them to my neighbor because it wasn't worth standing in the return line at Target over some slippers that I'd get less than $10 credit for.

5)New Year's resolution? I'm going to ride my bike more.

6)Favorite Salad Dressing? I actually am not really into salad. When I do have one I'd rather have it with a little lemon juice and/or freshly ground black pepper rather than an oily dressing.

7)Why do you post on DU? I'm bored.

8)What's for lunch? I have no idea, I haven't eaten breakfast yet.

18. Here you go:
1. It was extremely fun. Then it was puketastic, which sounds like it might refer to fun, but it doesn't.
2. I take it with soy "milk." I like it with lots of cream and sugar.
3. Smokes. Because I smoke.
4. Yes, a few. I won't return them though--I'll figure out something to use them for or find them new homes.
5. Uh...I don't know. Answer the phone for once, and try to save some money I suppose.
6. Don't really have one. I like most of them.
7. Because it's here. Also, it's entertaining and informative sometimes too.
8. Coke, one can of.

5. Finish novel/gain weight/change jobs, apartments and cities (yeah, I know; tall order).

6. Newman's Own--Balsamic Vinegrette.

7. Need to keep up discourse with other liberals--I live in an ocean of red/clueless "Democrat" populists.

8. Black bean soup with lentils. Tasty. But I spilled half of it on my counter while I was trying to start eating it. Not tasty.
