52. "Now baby let's go...holler if you're with me...Hey Joe, come on and teach us how to Diffie!"
Do you read && like ‘and and?’ Do you HATE IT? No, I assume there was probably an almost undetectable, sub-conscious structural or visually appealing reason why the person choose to display it in such fashion.
Why does everybody seek popularity? What’s wrong with being original? I wouldn't jump to that conclusion everyone wants to be "popular" but I definitely think people are often under some deeply ingrained misconception that being happy is a direct result of being popular.
Do you prefer hearing the blunt truth, or do you like sugarcoating? Doesn't really matter either way, if it's stuff I don't want to hear, I'll find a way to be unhappy with either delivery method.
Do you care what strangers think about you? To an extent. I feel humans like to be perceived in very specific ways which they have carefully designed themselves to be perceived. We tend to get butthurt when others' interpretations don't quite align with ours. It's a nonsensical but almost entirely inescapable phenomenon.
Are you a girl that just wants to have fun? Not really...fun costs $.
Do you think heaven is a place on earth? I think heaven is whatever and wherever you want.
Are you a perfectionist, or only human, born to make mistakes? Depends what the circumstances are and if I like/am passionate about the tasks at hand.
Do you use any acne medication? Nope. Just aloe vera plant leaves.
Do you know when it’s just a little crush vs. true love? They're both just constructs. We create them both, but are rarely aware we do it because for the most part humans forget their perception doesn't apply to others automatically just because their own does. We think these kinda thoughts are the real world but they're in actuality, our perception of the real world.
How often do you crack under pressure? 50/50 chance.
Have you picked out flower petals, saying, 'He loves me, he loves me not? Like, when I was 7 and thought it was cool cause Ariel did it in The Little Mermaid.
Do you like to pace? While I'm on the phone for surely.
Are you a small town girl, or from the big city? Neither, son. Suburban middle-class development - wooooop woooop.
How important is sexual attractiveness of a partner to you? It's a critical component of the whole...rigamarole. A partner doesn't have to be irrefutably attractive to every single person in the universe (like maybe... Thor) but being attracted *to each other* is essentially the entire point of courtship.
Do you ever look in the mirror and are surprised by how good you look? I have my days.
Do you ever look in the mirror and feel revolted? I have those days, too.
What is the worst career? Why do you hate it? I imagine being that sucker who has to wrangle/corral loose shopping carts probably blows... no, I take that back, the worst has gotta be the "standing in the heat, at a busy intersection, in some kind of costume, twirling a awkwardly shaped sign" career. I'd hate that.
Do you have a hard time talking to people? 15 years in food service polishes up your small talk game quite nicely, even if you don't inherently prefer socializing.
How important is friendship to you? Why? It's nice, don't get me wrong... but adult friendships are realistically hard to maintain...and tbh…Amazon Alexa is actually relatively decent company.
Is anybody in your family schizophrenic? If so, what is their life like? Not at the moment. My ex was, though. We're not getting into story time here. Plus, I'd mostly be assuming, cuz I there's no actual way to know how that felt, I only know how I was impacted by it.
What’s something somebody can do to make you hate them instantly? Nothing. I don't "hate" anybody because hate is like, a lot of condensed and shitty feelings and it doesn't accomplish anything other than create a miserable state of mind you get stuck in.
How organized is your mind? How do you know it’s organized/disorganized? Varies, depending on time of day, amount of sleep, type of task and if any illegal substances have contributed.
Why do you hate drama, if you do? Well, I mean, I like actual theatrical drama. I don't care for gossip and social drama because other than being briefly psychologically intriguing, it's not remotely useful.
Do you like it when you find yourself in a conflict? In life, yes, because life's about solving conflicts of various natures. But with people? Eff no. I like having problems and issues to work through but I don't like the idea of confronting other people, per say.
How impulsive are you? On a scale of 1-10? a soft 6. My perception of my own impulsivity sometimes changes, though.
What kinds of questions do you not like being asked? Specific, sexual sorts.of questions. I don't like to put myself in a place where random people could be picturing me in those situations. Skeeves me out.
Why do you follow the religion that you do? I don't follow any religion. I like to be able to freely form and change my opinions, beliefs and values and philosophies as I grow and explore. I try to shy away from belief systems that promote conformity and discourage critical thinking and questioning. The underlying principles of religion are solid though. On some rudimentary level, religions pretty much all aim to help people understand happiness comes from within, less is often more, treat others with compassion, and we can't control anything except our own mind. These are ultimately, pivotal components to our happiness. But the concepts themselves are abstract and existential & many find easier to understand or accept when the concepts have structure or a King Trident-y looking dude in the sky who's got shit under control, since apparently we don't ans that freaks folks out.
Do you feel superior to others because you’re that religion? I'm not superior to anybody for any reason. But like tbh, sometimes someone will say something incredulously ignorant on the subject and I feel like I'm possibly a little cooler of a human than they are because I'm not a pushy little dick about what I believe. I openly discuss my life views/philosophies because they're a part of me - but I literally don't have intentions or even gain anything by converting you to my weird existentialness.
What’s the greatest thing about science? It's not emotional.
I recently saw an anti-Obama sticker that said 'Sorry Yet?’ What the hell has he possibly done that would make people sorry? Or do you just hate him without even knowing why you do? He probably got caught doing White Face, Halloween in 2010. As a professional Mime, this offended me.
Are you likely to crack under peer pressure? Depends how fun the pressured activity sounds. Attempt highrise parkour? No thanks. Drop a tab of acid? Sure, let's get weird.
Are you emotional or very stolid? Emotional aka total sucker. I think I may appear stolid in some instances though.
&& whyy do people typee like thiss? do you like looking stupidd? =] an emphasis thing, I think...its likely they're dragging out the syllables bc they say it like that in their head.
Does it annoy you when people dumb themselves down to be cool? Not really. Knock yourselves out.
How late do you go to bed during summer nights? My bedtime is never to whenever and it doesn't fluctuate seasonally
What’s a song you like from the genre you hate? I honestly don't hate any genre.
Do your siblings look like you? Probably a bit.
Why do girls like six-packs? What’s wrong with a soft pillowy tummy? Nothing. Some girls like pillows some like abs, some like legs, some like elbows who the shit knows.
List 3 things that peeve you off. Loud, repetitive noises...slow walkers...when people wear Polo shirts because they like Polo shirts and not because they have to for some work/business purpose.

51. "An elephant never forgets, so my dick remembers everything."
Would you date Micheal Jackson? For so many reasons, no, but namely because of that whole being dead thing.
What are your 5 favorite colors excluding black? Black isn't technically a color anyway. Robin's Egg blue, schoolbus yellow, neon fuchsia, dark turquoise and like a melony canteloupe color. Super specific, I know.
Got a boyfriend/girlfriend? Indeed.
What color is your hair? Some hodgepodge mix of reddish brown.
Type your name with your chin! I'm in the middle of the airport waiting to board a plane, I'll pass on the looking psychotic thing.
What do you think of the phrase “The nail that sticks up gets hammered down”? I think that logically, from a home-improvement standpoint, the phrase is probably an accurate statement.
What your favorite show? Law and Order SVU, Impractical Jokers.
How many licks DOES it take to get to the center of a tootsie pop? Suppose it depends on several variables, I don't think there is one conclusive answer.
Would you let people stare at your boobs? No, (I mean, unless it were my dude) I have better shit to do with my time.
How many people does it take to screw in a lightbulb? Much like the tootsie pop question, there are too many variables missing to come to a conclusion. How high is the ceiling, or how high the people? Are they installing those fucking fancy flourescent ones? Do any of the people have any prior experience doing electrical work?
Do you like Freddy Krueger? I'm not into horror flicks, never seen whatever movie he's in.
What do you think of the 1408 movie trailer? No idea what that is.
Spell your name backward. Eyaj.
Which do you prefer, Naruto or One Piece? Also, no idea what these are.
Toonami or Adult Swim? I suppose Swim because I'll watch Fam Guy if I see it's on.
Red or black? Probably black. Red reminds me of either sports, Christmas or ketchup.
Are you emo? I like me some old school Fall Out Boy & Dashboard Confessional, but I honestly don't think that's the sole criteria to meet that stereotype.
Have you ever dated your girlfriend’s/boyfriend's best friend? Nooo.
What do you think of Rob Zombie? I don't know who he is, thus I don't think of him.
Do you think Fergie is weird? Hated the Milkshake song - don't really know shit about Fergie though to accurately say.
Do you know your myspace top 10 friends? Ummm, yeah, doesn't exist anymore.
Do you wear glasses? Unless I happen to have money to order contact lenses.
Do you believe in true love? I swear I'm not even saying this cynically but sure I believe it exists... however, I also believe it is a mostly a construct we create, that is typically molded by our individual perceptions and societal expectations.
What do you find romantic? Usually relatively non-conventional shit.
Do you use yahoo? In the past, I think. Speaking of web browsers does anyone else out there remember AskJeeves…
What’s your phobia? Jarringing, abrasive, loud noises - especially ones that repeat or are relentless.
What’s your fetish? I'm super turned on by not telling strangers on the internet this kind of information.

50.
Sorry it's been awhile...got busy and lazy simultaneously!
How many people can you trust? I trust/distrust all people to varying extents.
Have you ever slept all day? Probably.
Ever been a victim of police misconduct (that you know of)?I feel like it would be hard not to know, but no, not that I know of.
Have you ever looked up your state’s laws and read them? Not really. Maybe a stray google search.
If someone were to quiz you on what your rights are, would you know them? On a superficial televised crime-drama level.
Do you think it’s scary that we aren’t taught our rights in school? I think a lot of things we're both taught and conveniently not taught in schools are terrifying. We spend 12 years being brainwashed just to spend the majority of adulthood trying to un-brainwash.
Have you ever been a victim of rape or attempted rape? I mean, it was when I was with sociopath ex. I feel like stranger rape is more traumatic for people and shit but I still didn’t wanna bang at knifepoint, blockaded in a motel room while being interrogated about random conspiracies I was allegedly plotting. Aka nothing.
If you were dying, would you trust your local hospital to save you? I don’t know too much about the hospitals out here so I can’t necessarily assume they wouldn’t save me if they could.
If you were raped, would you trust the police to rescue you and not join in? Honestly, I’ve had pretty respectful experiences with local PD wherever I’ve been. I suppose there is always a chance of the police weirdly joining in but I think it happens a lot less than movies and TV make it out to.
Have you ever had to talk to a lawyer? Yup for my DUI and my bankruptcy a few years ago. My 20’s were a hot ass mess.
If you had the money to, would you pursue a lawsuit? I don’t have anybody to sue.
Do you want to press charges against someone? No but if Raul Esparza (who played ADA Rafael Barba on SVU) could be my attorney, I could probs find some random corporation or something to press charges against. Just saying.
Do you trust all of your facebook friends? To the degree that they aren’t catfish or computer hackers. I wouldn’t necessarily co-sign loans or share my banking info with most of them, though.
Is something wrong with your body physically right now? Nope.
Have you ever been held hostage? Whoever made this survey has clearly been watching a Special Victims Unit marathon or something. But yeah, on several occasions. #SociopathEx.
What is wrong with you (physically) right now? Wasn’t this just a question a few questions ago? My right foot is always itchy, I guess.
Do you feel ok? Surely.
Has a rumor ever been spread about you that wasn’t true? Probably. I know with sociopath ex, I was constantly accused of shit I didn’t do but he didn’t really spread rumors because we didn’t have any friends.😂
Has your pastor ever started an untrue rumor about you? Lmao. I don’t have a pastor or any religious leaders in my life but I'd like to imagine they have better things to do than talk shit and spread rumors about their parishioners.
What color is your phone? The case is Barney the dinosaur purple.
How old were you when you got your first smartphone? I think like 18/19? When I got my first cellphone @ 15, Smartphones didn’t exist.
How bad are your worst cramps on a scale of 1-10? I'd say like usually a 6 or 7.
Have you ever been in pain so bad you were throwing up and screaming? Maybe when I had the pleural effusion on the outside of my lung. I don’t think I was screaming but definitely crying.
Have you ever had to take pain meds immediately or you would have been throwing up and screaming? I’ve only really taken pain meds for funsies.
Have you ever been in pain so bad you passed out? I don’t think so.
Can you have kids? Biologically, probably. Financially, certainly not.
Does your home have an ant problem? Naw.
What season do you wish lasted longer? They’re all fine the way they are. I guess spring…a little longer before 100+ degree summer wouldn’t hurt
How long does fall last where you live? Technically, fall here is just less hot summer, but late Sept – late December probably.
If you could get rid of one of your allergies, which one would it be? I’m not allergic to anything.
Do you have any cousins that look like you? I guess they all must sort of look like me on some level. None are spitting images or whatever.
Who do you know who is dating someone that looks way too old for them? Na. Not my business anyways.
Have you ever gone on a facebook deleting spree? I deleted my Facebook, instead, during that super toxic period of my life… the involuntary isolation that often comes with abusive relationships.

49. I woke up this morning with a bad hangover, and my penis was missing again.
Do you blow dry your hair or do you let it air out? Air dry. It’s like 100+ degrees here, it dries in seconds.
Are you always late or always on time? Always 5-7 minutes early.
Do you blush when you receive compliments? I don’t usually receive that many compliments that are awkward enough to make me blush. It’s usually shit like “you have awesome handwriting”…which btw, I totally do.
Candles or incense? Neither. I’m absent-minded and don’t have confidence I’ll forget I lit them and burn shit down.
Does it bother you when someone rubs something in your face? It’s rude as fuck.
Can you juggle? Definitely not.
Reason behind the last time you laughed until you cried? Honestly I think it was the video of firefighters in reverse, putting small children back into a burning building. It’s like one of those so-fucked-up-it’s-funny kinda things.
Are you one who brags a lot? About how awesome my handwriting is, maybe. Because that’s kinda irrefutable. Otherwise, no.
How much money do you have on you? There’s like $9 in my purse. Rollin' in that dough.
Do you face your problems head on or do you run away from them? Eh, neither. I just ignore them until I absolutely have to deal with them, usually.
What is the latest you’ve stayed out before? All night, until who the fuck knows the next day.
Something you love to eat or drink at the fair? Deep Fried Random Shit.
Your favorite vegetable? Zucchini, snap peas, carrots, corn on the cob.
Are you confrontational? Nooo. I avoid confrontation - to a fault, even.
Do you kiss and makeup or can you hold a grudge? Rarely hold a grudge. I usually don’t even get butthurt to begin with.
Do you stand your ground?: If I feel like it. This sort of touches on my avoiding confrontation to a fault. If I feel like standing my ground will cause a confrontational situation, I don’t.
What do you think of dreadlocks? My boyfriend has them and he’s sexy so I’m a fan.
Would you say you have a big impact on people? That’s for people to decide, not me.
Who has a big impact on you? Close friends, boyfriend, family, blahblahblah…I feel like it's such a cliché answer...but it is what it is.
Who do you know without a doubt cares about you? Those people mentioned above.
Can people rely on you? To a degree, but it totally depends on what they’re asking of me.
Have you ever caught yourself talking in your sleep? I guess in like a half-asleep sort of state.
Do you catch lizards? Hells no, son. Those little fuckers are fast.
Are you stubborn? For the most part, yes. But I’ve gotten a lot better about letting shit go and not always getting my way.
What all have you done in the last 24 hours? Mmm, woke up, went to work with Brandon at the Bee farm, scraped honeycombs for about 7 hours, went to a work meeting at the Restaurant on the wrong day, went back to farm to pick up B, then went back home and watched Ridiculousness.
Are you freakishly tall? Na, I’m about average.
Do you have a pretty smile? I never needed braces or anything. So I guess by dental standards, yeah.
Are you bright? Like, intelligent or literally so pale I'm physically bright? Maybe a little of both.
Do you like pretzels? Depends. Those Snyder's honey mustard and onion ones and soft mall pretzels with cheese, definitely.

Quote
To feel affection for people even when they make mistakes is uniquely human. You can do it, if you simply recognize: that they’re human too, that they act out of ignorance, against their will, and that you’ll both be dead before long. And, above all, that they haven’t really hurt you. They haven’t diminished your ability to choose.
Marcus Aurelius, Meditations (7.22)

48. Put your hands in the air and say hell yeah. Captain Jack! Johnny Depp!
What motivates you to do what you do? Sheer necessity, usually.
What was the weather like the last time you went out? Hot. It’s Arizona so it’s probably near 100 + sunny.
Do you go for walks often? I’m pretty lazy and try to avoid it. You sorta gotta trick me into walking, like take me to a big shopping mall or something so I inadvertently walk around it whilst shopping.
What color shirt are you wearing? Gray.
What is your favorite type of youtube video to watch? I don’t really watch any. I just use it to occasionally look up songs or to record snippets of stuff to remix songs.
Do you need any new clothes right now? I got plenty.
What’s the next project you are excited to start? I’m working on a nonsensical Adult Coloring Book featuring animals committing crimes.


Do you collect anything? If so, what? Used to collect rocks and Pokémon cards. I suppose in a sense I collect all sorts of art/office supplies.
^and if not, what would you like to collect? Nothing really.
What was the last disappointing thing that happened to you? I don’t know. Suppose work being closed for renovation for 2 weeks kinda sucks because I sort of need cash.
What is something God has healed you of? I don’t really do the whole God/Religion rigamarole... Chances are if we are healed of something, there is a psychological, sociological biological or generally rational explanation.
Have you ever experienced a miracle? Like, a phenomenal coincidence? I think as much as I hate to be a downer, there's probably a lot to do with our perceptions of events
What was the last thing you ate? Lucky Charms.
Do you ever eat food that’s intended for kids? Well, Lucky Charms. I also love pizza rolls and chicken nuggets. But I’m not eating Gerber Peas&Carrot baby foods or anything crazy like that.
What was the last stupid thing you did? Define “stupid”? Most things I do are probably stupid to others but perfectly acceptable to me.
Do you get embarrassed easily? Sometimes.
Are you wearing pants or shorts right now? I never wear shorts.
What are your top three names you like for a daughter? Elliot (this is also my pick for a boy name), Tara, Hazel.
Would you ever film a vlog of yourself giving birth? Ew. Fuck no. Honestly, adopting/fostering sounds way more my style anyway. To be totally frank, pregnancy sounds gross and being unable to take my adderall sounds awful. I’d gain like, a million pounds.
Do you like getting caught in the rain? It’s usually a refreshing break from the heat out here.
Do you think your hair looks best straight, wavy, or curly? Messy, or in a side-pony.
What was the last craft project you completed?: Coloring books for my friends’ kid.

Name 3 youtubers you would like to meet in person: I don’t know any.
Has anyone ever spread an untrue rumor about you? Sociopath ex. Not sure he actually said them aloud to people other than myself, but I was constantly being accused of weird stuff I absolutely did not do.
What’s one rumor you’ve heard about yourself, and is it true? N/A. No idea. Not aware of any relevant or applicable rumors. I literally just keep to myself and do crafts.
What color are your nails painted currently? Not painted.
Do you use a pill box? Jesus, I’m not 80.
List 3 people you know who were loving and then turned cold: it’s kind of generic to assume either of those things as permanent traits. But probably most flings or whatever. It always feels cold when one party loses interest.
Have you filmed a youtube video today? Never filmed one in my life.
Do you leave the house when you’re on your period? Um yes. Life doesn’t stop just because I have cramps.
^If not, why not? -
Have you ever felt threatened for your life? Yeah. Sociopath ex would get overtly paranoid and mistake harmless or unrelated things I did or said to be conspiracies against him. And occasionally my imaginary betrayals would lead to violent words or actions. Like, a bundle of index cards with Carrabba’s menu items and their ingredients, word for word, from the Carrabba’s menu, was somehow coded plots to who the fuck knows to have him killed. Irrational stuff like that.
What are you behind on? Student loans. And when I say behind, I really mean that I actively chose not to pay them.
Do you get enough sleep each night? No because night is my time to be productive, uninterrupted and without bothering anyone. I hate having to stop my thoughts just because other people are making noise or trying to converse with me.
Which did you like better: high school or college? Absolutely college.
Which year of your life stands out to you as the most significant so far? Probably last year or two.
…and why? Big personal transitions and revelations in my life philosophy.
What was the last store you shopped at? Walmart, most likely.
Do you have a favorite pharmacist? I used to back in NY. Her name was Evie. She wished a customer Happy Thanksgiving on Valentine’s Day accidentally once and it cracked me up and we had a running joke about it.
Do you have a favorite cashier at the grocery store? I don’t shop frequently enough and I switch up stores when I do.
What was the last thing you ordered at Starbucks? Probably a toffee nut Frappuccino.
What’s something you discovered recently?
What makes you more creative? Emotional turbulence, certain drugs.
What’s the last magical thing you experienced? Um…Magical? The herd of unicorns crossing the I-10.
What is the theme of your bedroom? None. We are staying in a spare room at a friend’s. But we're actually moving this week because being micromanaged and constantly scrutinized was getting old.
Have you ever lived in a dorm? Yes, for a few years
Who is someone whom you admire, and why? I guess the lady at work, Amanda. She’s like 64 and works open-close every day, and still has a great attitude.
When was the last time you stepped outside of your comfort zone? I don’t know. I test the waters every once in awhile.
Where would you like to travel to next? Nowhere crazy. Just back to New York for the Renaissance Faire.
If you could win three dream vacations to anywhere, where would you go? Portugal—New Zealand—Ireland.
Would you rather ride a camel or an elephant? Camel. They’re fuzzy.
Are you a free spirit? I don’t know what that even constitutes. I think outside the box and I question social conformity and other preset patterns of thought. But I don’t know that has much to do with my spirit.
Do you want to lose weight? I think I’m okay for now.
Which insects scare you, if any? They don’t scare me, they just creep me out …spiders, centipedes, millipedes, roaches…ugh.
Do you think it’s silly to be afraid of a tiny insect? It’s not like I think they’re going to murk me with a sawed off shot gun. I know they’re harmless and therefor not technically scary…but they’re still creepy and unsettling somehow.
Have you ever experienced paranoia? To some degree.
Have you ever hallucinated? Indeed.
Were you raised religious? We were raised Roman Catholic. Didn’t stick.
Have you ever been abused? Psychologically, emotionally, physically and sexually. #sociopathic ex.
Do you think the cops should do more about bullying? I think cops have enough shit to worry about as is and don’t know how effective extensive police interference would even be. I think the anti-bullying message is stronger when conveyed by people closer to kids like teachers, parents, siblings or a celebrity figure they idolize.
Is there a coffee shop you like better than Starbucks? I like them all about the same.
If you could afford to get your hair professionally done, what would you get? Probably dye and highlights. Definite trim of my bangs.
If you had a lot of money, do you think you would use it wisely? Absolutely not. I have little to no money now and I don’t even use *that* wisely.
Do you know any rich people who are very irresponsible? I don’t know many people to begin with.
List five careers that you’d like to have: Lawyer (like A.D.A. Barba!)...Graphic Designer...Psychologist...Self-Help writer...and oddly wouldn't mind being a waitress still.
List five far-out things that you’d like to do before you die: I genuinely do not have a bucket list. If I stumble upon something that seems cool, I do it. Making unrealistic lists won't help my quality of life very much.
Do you dream big? Quite the opposite. I sort of just fly by the seat of my pants. Weird expression. Can’t recall ever having very fixated dreams or visions for myself.
What was your first imaginary friend’s name? N/A
What was the name of the first pet that you loved? Comet. <3
What was the first work uniform that you had to wear? Waitress uniform of sorts. I wanna say it was white button down and black pants.
Do you like to go barefoot? Usually. On some surfaces it’s intolerable and I hate the texture, though.
Do you like the same colors now that you did as a kid? Pretty much.
Do you have a blog? You’re on it, buddy. This is a survey blog.
Do you have a youtube channel? What would I even post videos about?? I assure you, I do nothing that the general public would find entertaining.

Ella:-- Elle: --
Ellie: My parents named their RV/camper Ellie. Lmao. She’s a good RV though.

Nadia: girl I went to high school with. We always had chorus together.
Nancy: Mrs. B! She was the Choir leader for the church choir I used to sing in growing up. Even when I stopped believing in the whole religion thing, I still continued to sing in the choir because Mrs. B was the best and was kind of lik3 family at that point.
Natalie: -- Nathan: -- Nathanael: --
Neoma: -- Nichole: -- Nico: --
Nikki: the friend in our teenage clique who had the car and a bomb-ass pool. She weirdly went to Senior Prom with my now BF. Odd how life actually unfolds.

Tom: --
Tori: my sister's best friend. Posts pics of her Great Prynese puppy on FB.

Victoria: went to the same high school but didn’t know each other til we went to the same college. Became really good friends. Randomly put lemons in the dorm shower stalls with me and we had our Malt Liquor Mondays…I'd buy a couple 40’s of Old E with my fake and we'd sit in the dorm common and play a modified version of the drinking game Kings by ourselves.
Viviane: -- Walter: --
Will: Border Patrol ex-fiance. We met in college and got a job with BP post college…which is originally how I came to be in Arizona. Despite the fact I was an unforgivable dick and left, He genuinely never treated me like it. And that’s admirable. According to friends he is with someone else, and I’m 100% okay and happy for him.
Willa: --
William: I mean, it is my ex's full name. But everyone called him Will.
Yujin: -- Yuta: --

47. I got an 8ft bed that never has to be made. You know if it weren't for trucks we wouldn't have tailgates!
1. What type of criminal would you be? An extremely ineffective one. I’m pretty clumsy and severely lack stealth.
2. What are you listening to right now? Brandon’s watching some show on his phone across from me.
3. If you had to choose a stripper name, what would it be? Something awkward and distinctly non-stripper-ish like Constance or Trudy.
4. If your phone started ringing, who would you hope is calling? It’s likely gonna be my folks or Kristy if anything. Or the random number that keeps leaving me telemarketing voicemails in Spanish.
5. Do you drink? Everyone drinks. But if you mean booze, yes, but not too often. It doesn’t serve much functional purpose in my current life. In college and my 20’s it was a way to overcome social anxiety and inhibitions to make friends or meet guys or just get out of my own head. But at 30, I have Brandon and enough already established friendships that I don’t have much use for that particular vice anymore.
6. Do you smoke? Cigarettes, yes, because if I didn’t then how would I get a 5 minute break every few hours at work? “Hey can I sit on the patio and bullshit on my phone for 5 minutes?” doesn’t fly. Weed? On occasion…along the same lines as drinking, it makes me dysfunctional more often than not, and therefor isn’t useful. I’m an uppers and psychedelics type of gal.
7. What is the first thing you notice in someone? Depends on the person and the situation. There isn’t one thing I notice or consistently look for when observing people. I suppose whatever catches my eye about them.
8. Do you get attached easily? Not really.
9. Do you like your eye color? Yeah it’s fine.
10. Have any stupid human tricks? I can sit, stay and give paw.
11. Humor me. What physical ideal do you imagine in a boyfriend/girlfriend/partner? Having ideals like that is kind of a trap. It subconsciously makes you closed-minded to things outside those ideals. If I’m attracted to someone, I’m attracted to them and it’s simple as that.
12. What type of personality traits do you look for in a boyfriend/girlfriend/partner? I already have a fella so, I’m not looking. And again, I never maintained a certain criteria for any potential mates…if we hit it off and I like you, I’m going to like/accept you for the traits you already presently have, not the traits I want you to “ideally” be.
13. Any other essential quirks/interests/other you look for in a boyfriend/girlfriend/partner? Please don’t be a lunatic and eat/ order your steaks and burgers well done.
14. Any romantic gestures you really like? I’m not really romantic. I suppose I do like the idea of going to Bed and Breakfasts. They always have a vintage, cozy sort of interior décor that fascinates me.
15. Any sexual fantasies? Are you daring enough to share one? I want to have sex in the penguin exhibit at the Phoenix zoo while the penguins and passerby watch.
And yes, I’m definitely messing with you. My sex life isn’t Tumblr's buisness.
16. Have you ever been in love? Honestly, I have 0 idea what that entails. Everything in the past I ever assumed or thought was “in love” was either infatuation, co-dependency, obligation, or other actually self-constructed concepts that were created by me (subconsciously) to fit some current narrative of my life. I’m either completely jaded or completely aware, not sure which.
17. Do you have a crush/romantic interest in anyone? Brandon. And Thor.
18. What’s your sexual orientation (if you feel comfortable answering)? I’m straight.
19. What’s your favorite color and why? Yellow, turquoise, some fuchsia-y shades of purple.
20. What was your most embarrassing moment? Don’t have any that really jump out at me as stand-alone singular incidences.
21. Do you ever wish you were someone else? Fuck no.
22. What were you like when you were a kid? Like, a less developed version of me now. A Windows 98. & I gave too many fucks about shit that didn’t matter.
23. What would your dream house be like? Small. No bigger than a cottage or double-wide Two bedrooms, kitchenette, a shower with a bath, some laundry machines and a little patio out back or front. Maybe some citrus trees out back. Even if I were filthy rich, this would still be what I’d look for.
24. What last made you laugh? No idea.
25. Do you have a place you like to go to collect your thoughts? My walk-in closet studio:

26. What is your favorite/least favorite word? Favorite: zany Least: dollop.
27. What turns you on? Uniqueness.
28. What turns you off? Conformity, closed-mindedness, regularly wearing Polo shirts of your own accord. Like if you gotta wear one for your work uniform, whatever, but why recreationally wear one?
29. Have you ever been skinny dipping? Yeah. Pretty much exactly the same as swimming not naked.
30. Would you go bungee jumping/sky diving if given the chance? Fuck no, bro.
31. Do you have any siblings? Younger sister and younger brother.
32. Do you like to dance? Definitely not. One of the most mentally uncomfortable activities in all of existence.
33. What is your definition of cheating? Having an intimate connection either physically or emotionally with another person behind your partner's back.
34. Have you ever stolen anything? Umm like string cheese singles and a Bic lighter.
35. Do you regret anything? Nope. I forgave myself for being a completely inconsiderate cunt a few years back.
36. Do you have any phobias? Not really. There’s shit I don’t like but phobia might be too strong.
37. Ever broken any bones? *knock on wood* No.
38. Ever come close to death? Yeah, once or twice.
39. What is your religion/spirituality, if any? I was raised Roman Catholic but I long since have chosen to bypass organized religions all together. I don’t like being told what to think or believe. Plus, am I supposed to blindly ignore the likelihood of humans modifying the teachings to suit some underlying power plays or political agenda? I simply have no way of knowing for certain, so I don’t really worry about it. Same with God or whatever deities could be chilling. No way to actually, tangibly know until we kick it. I just try and not be a dick as much as possible and keep an open mind.
40. Have you ever been to a psychiatrist/therapist? Yeah. Sometimes a completely impartial human being who can write prescriptions is helpful to have in your corner.
41. Are looks important in a relationship? To a degree. You both have to be attracted to each other. But they don’t matter in the sense of how other people see them. Like, if you like someone but your buddy says their hideous, but you’re instantly love struck, you shouldn't not pursue them.
42. Are you more like your mom or your dad? Not sure, honestly. I think it’s pretty evenly distributed.
43. What is your favorite season? Honestly, it depends where I’m living.
44. Do you have any tattoos? 3.
45. Do you have any piercings? Gauged ears, only, as of now. My job just made me remove my lip ring because our primarily elderly patrons kept complaining about it. It’s not like it’s affecting their food or my ability to provide customer service. I don't like the look of elastic band jeans from Walmart but you don’t see me complaining to my boss to demanding that they remove them, do you?
46. How many boyfriends/girlfriends have you had? Like, 4 officially certified relationships. A few stray flings in between.
47. Have you ever had a crush on a fictional character? Sirius Black (from Harry Potter)…but like before Gary Oldman played him in the movies. I’m not saying Gary is ugly or anything but he’s not the smokin hot John Stamos/Johnny Depp-ish Sirius that my mind concocted.
48. What is your favorite thing to do? Draw/Color.
49. If you could only visit one place outside of your hometown, where would it be? Umm. I don’t know. A tropical island sounds lovely.
50. Do you get jealous easily? Not really. It’s immature, not only do you come off as insecure and emotionally volatile, but being jealous also solves ABSOLUTELY NOTHING. Being jealous of someone just makes you angry and unhappy inside. That is all.

46. Let's get down to business, to defeat the Huns! Did they send me daughters, when I asked for sons?!?
01. How often do you walk around barefoot? I mean, in public (minus water-themed settings) obviously never. At home, often. Socks feel weird on some surfaces.
02. When you eat take-out, do you just eat it out of the containers provided? Why would I intentionally create a need to clean dishes? Wasn’t that the purpose of not cooking?
03. How do you prefer to travel? Plane, train, driving? Well, if I’m going overseas, plane. If I’m in an airport or zoo…love the little tour/terminal trains...but definitely driving is my all time favorite…alone, with a cold drink, a fresh pack of smokes, the windows down and a personally compiled playlist of go-to jams cranked up to a borderline unnecessary level of loudness.
04. Would you need to sleep with someone before considering marrying them? Yeah, but I don’t technically think marriage is a big deal or even necessary. The two things, in my mind, are essentially unrelated constructs.
05. How often do you make your bed? There is no particular frequency or reason when or why I do or don’t make it…but roughly 80% of the time, I don’t.
No 6? I don’t know, man, it's vanished.
07. Do you carry condoms? No lol.
08. Would you date someone who has a hearing aid? I’m very appalled and disgusted with the hard of hearing. I know this is the internet and you can’t hear the dry sarcasm I am using in my head as I type it... But I’m 100% joking, I swear, why would a hearing aid be a deal breaker?
09. If you were to be stuck on a deserted tropical island, how big would you like the island to be? Small enough that predatory animals wouldn’t be able to inhabit it.
10. How organized are the files on your computer? No computer.
11. Have you ever been to a strip club? Once…too drunk to remember much about it other than they had beer there. And that handing the strippers money, like they're actual people, instead of degradingly tossing it on the floor, was not preferred by the strippers.
12. Have you ever brought home a stray animal? There was a wild baby squirrel lost and confused outside the efficiency I used to rent. Decided to see if she wanted to come in…then she lived in the over-the-door shoe pocket thing for the next 6 months.
13. Did you have a childhood hero? Were they real or fictional? I don’t think I’ve ever had “a hero”…& I mean this in the least depressing way possible.
14. If you are put on hold and the music playing is a song you know, do you sing along? Depends on my mood and where I am or who is around me.
15. Are you physically strong? Lmao, no. Doing one pull-up might actually kill me.
16. Would you date someone with braces? Provided I were single and he wasn’t in 7th grade, sure. Invisi-line does exist now though. Not sure why anyone would choose painful metal braces over a thin gel-like mold.
17. Does scuba diving interest you? If you’re buying the gear and providing transportation, and can teach me how, sure, I'm down. But otherwise it’s just kinda inconvenient all around and that’s a major deterrent.
18. Would you ever ask your parents for relationship advice? I'm not against consulting my folks, but I never really ask anybody for “advice” because that implies I want someone to make a personal life decision for me, based on their own independent, & often unrelated life experiences. Which is ludacris. All I ever ask for is for someone to let me vent and then have a candid, honest conversation about the general topic, that hopefully can lead to further clarity and help me understand and declutter my headmess.
19. Do you think people look up to you? Haven’t the slightest clue.
20. How often do you have trouble sleeping at night? Suppose you can’t technically call it trouble if you are intentionally taking adderall to stay up and do crafts.
21. Can you drive a manual transmission? Tried. I’m kind of dyslexic with the coordination of it all. I don’t trust my brain to execute the process safely.
22. Have you ever re-gifted a gift you didn’t care for? A gift card. It wasn’t anything personal, there just wasn’t that restaurant in my area and there was on where my Grandparents live. I didn’t want to waste it.
23. Do you ever rehearse conversations before you have them? More so replay them differently after I have them. But I suppose sometimes I try to imagine alternative ways to phrase or approach a subject before.
24. You notice someone staring intently at you, what do you do? Nothing. I space the fuck out all the time and random people probably think I’m staring intently at them all the time. Chances are my eyes froze but my mind kept going and you happened to be in my line of sight. However, if I’m at work and they’re staring at me, it’s probably because they’re ready to order or they need more unsweetened tea. In which case, I refill their glass or take their order.
25. Do you blush easily? Don’t know, I blush a regular amount?
26. Do you get angry at yourself or at others more often? Myself. And in all reality, even when I think I’m mad at others, it’s likely I’m mad at myself and can’t identify why so I’m just blaming and projecting the anger onto them.
27. Can you name five current world leaders? Absolutely not. Honestly, you’re welcome to judge me for this, but I didn’t even know our own Vice Prez' name until like four months ago. I really don’t follow politics because I don’t have the patience to sift through all the intricate layers of corruption involved with them. And yeah, I get that politicians thrive on the apathy of the masses but if I’m going to care about a cause or make a difference, I’m going to do it leading by example in everyday life, not by all of a sudden deciding to take a stance on gun-ownership and then spamming my newsfeed with memes about guns for the next 2-3 days.
28. When taking a cab, do you talk to the driver? If I’m in a chatty mood, but usually yes to some extent. I figure they get their share of rude or idiotic fares that maybe a little polite chit-chat makes a difference in some way.
29. Do you like word games like Scrabble or Boggle? Don’t know what Boggle is…so Scrabble, please.
30. Would you consider dating a psychiatrist or psychologist? Well, no, on the grounds that I’m already happily in a relationship. But hypothetically speaking, I wouldn’t have ever been opposed to it. We'd probably get along fine as I literally talk about psych related shit all the fucking time.

Lmao yup. Spent adulthood trying to unbrainwash childhood. Go figure.
“Now I understand that one of the important reasons for going to college and getting an education is to learn that the things you’ve believed in all your life aren’t true, and that nothing is what it appears to be.”

45. Conjunction Junction, how's that function? I've got three favorite cars that get most of my job done...
Do you answer the phones at your work? Well we definitely don’t just let them ring. If I’m super busy I try to pretend I don’t hear it and hope one of the other waitresses gets it. It’s usually someone placing take out food orders or wanting to know the hours (to which asking why couldn’t they google it, is not acceptable)
What’s your ring tone? I think its just a random beat I made.
What were you doing at 12am last night? Playing Design Home.
Do you want to fix anything with anyone? Nothing is broken with anyone that I know of…so, n/a.
Do you get annoyed when you see someone you don’t like? Can’t genuinely say there is anybody I actually dislike. I prefer some people’s company over others but it doesn’t mean I dislike them, per say.
Do you have trust issues? Given the trajectory of my life, I probably ought to, but I don’t. During any given transaction people are either honest, lying, partially lying or leaving out some part of the story for some likely subconscious purpose. And there will never be any definite way to know which. And I am totally okay with that reality.
Do you believe everything happens for a reason? Things happen for whatever reason we tell ourselves they do to make sense of our own realities. There’s not some Devine force behind it, just our default inability to accept randomness.
Are you mean? Honestly don’t think so. But I suppose that’s subjective… and for whatever reason maybe someone perceived my actions as mean. But I wouldn’t say I am.
Do you feel like you’re a good person? I’m not a completely shitty person, at the very least.
Are you going to have a good night? I’m working noon to close – so hopefully, a lucrative night. But it’s a Tuesday so the fuck knows.
Have you ever given up on someone and then went back to them? Yeah, and as an FYI if a dude has mad baby mama drama and starts drinking before 10am, avoid altogether.
Did you wake up in the middle of the night last night? I mean, I was already up.
What shows do you watch? I’m pretty diehard about the SVU reruns at this juncture in my life. But I also like The Good Place, Future Man (on Hulu), The Orville and Impractical Jokas.
What’s wrong with you right now? I’m okay but I guess if I had to pick a thing, the fans a little cold but Brandon is hot so I'm being nice and leaving it on.
Would you go back in time if you were given the chance? Yeah, so I too could go to a shopping mall with Socrates like in Bill & Ted's.
What’s your relationship with the person you last texted? We be dating.
Will your next kiss be a mistake? No, it’ll either be Brandon or the puppers.
Are you looking forward to anything? Anything can be something to look forward to if you adjust how you look at it.
Have you ever broken someone’s heart? It wasn’t my intention and I think he understood on some level that I was lost.
Has anyone ever told you that you have pretty eyes? Yeah.
Does anyone disgust you? People that tip less than 10% even though I went like above and beyond when I didn’t even have to. And especially worse if they needed drink refills every 45 seconds or bogged me down with multiple neurotic modifications.
Did you enjoy your weekend? Well, it was just work and then Sunday off. No complaints here.
Have you argued with anyone today? Nope. It’s 7:58am, other people aren’t even awake.
Your enemy is at your doorstep begging for forgiveness, what would you do? I don’t consider anybody an enemy but, hypothetically, if I did are they were probably already forgiven moments after they wronged me.
Has someone had their arms around you in the past 7 days? Yeah.
Dare you to detail why you kissed the last person you kissed? Does he is my boyfriend suffice as enough detail?
Are you afraid of losing the last person you talked to? There is always an unsettling possibility of losing those you don’t want to lose…constantly fearing or worrying about it doesn’t reduce this possibility, only reduces your ability to enjoy the present.
Is anything bothering you? Not really. Might go to Walmart and get a coffee after this.
Is there someone that makes you happy every time you see them? Surely.
What was your last thought before you went to bed last night? Honestly no idea.
When’s the last time you had a headache? Also no idea.
Is anyone else in the room with you? Brandon and Bocki pup.
Who was the last person you had a conversation with on the phone? Most likely someone placing an order for to-go food at work.
Does anyone call you babe? Brandon.
Is there anything you are craving right now? Coffee frappe thingie.
What was the first thing you thought of this morning? A cigarette.
Are you satisfied with what you currently have in life? Yup!
What were you doing at 7:00 am? Feeding the doggo.
How many hours of sleep did you get last night? Like, 4.
Do you know anyone who has been arrested? Me…? #DUI. And probably most people I know. And it’s not even like I hang out with seedy characters – just your everyday Walmart petty shoplifters and ooccasional recreational substance abusers.
Think back to the last person you kissed, how many times have you laughed with them? Probably over a million.
How do you feel about your hair right now? I want to dye it.
What’s something you really want right now, be honest? To shower.
When you were in elementary school, did you change best friends a lot? No, from what I recall, I had very few friends to begin with. My sister was my best friend thru Childhood.
Last thing you touched not computer-related? Puppy.
Have you ever suspected anyone of cheating on you? My 10th grade high school boyfriend actually was cheating on me, but I was pretty stoked about it because I didn’t really like him and it was my 1st relationship and didn't know how to just break up. So, the cheating just made it the perfect out.
Does the song you’re currently listening to remind you of anyone specific? No song. Brandon's watching some Hulu show with George Clooney in it…which pretty much just reminds me of George Clooney.
Who was the last person to give you a ride somewhere? Myyyself, son! Woopwoooop!

Have you ever felt trapped in a relationship: Trapped is an understatement.
Do you believe that “love is blind”?: I believe love is almost always something else in disguise…and that it all generally relates back to the image we want to create and embody. I swear I’m not being cynical, I'm just saying “Love” will always be too subjective and misinterpreted to come to any finite opinion about it.
What’s the furthest distance you’ve ridden a bicycle?. Like 7 miles? Could be more or less. I’m a terrible judge of time and distance.
Do you rate every survey you fill out, here on bzoink?: Don’t know what Bzoink is.
