A Survey stolen from a person in pain


1.My grandpa once: yelled at my aunt for telling us that we are Cherokee because "we don't talk about that." Whatever.


2.Never in my life have I: Jumped a missing bridge with a Trans Am like Burt Reynolds or the Duke Boys.

3.When I was younger, I: had a fascination with knights and armor. One time my mom took me to a public library just so I could look up photos of armor and draw them in my notebook. I spent hours and hours each day just drawing knights and armor and battles. 

4.High school was: not so bad, especially compared to the unbearable hell that was middle school. I did OK, made friends, was a moody asshole, got a license, all the usual stuff.

5.When I'm nervous: I feel like I get that same look on my face that Tony Romo used to get whenever Dallas was down by a touchdown or more and there was only 2 minutes left. You just knew he was going to throw pass after pass until one of them was intercepted and Dallas lost.

6.The last time I really cried was: probably not that long ago

7.If I were to get married right now: it'd create a real problem between me and my wife because, you know, bigamy.

8.My hair is: still attached to my head and I'm grateful.

9.My feet are: attached to my ankles, as they should be

10.When I was 5: I was pretty lonely but I don't remember much beyond kindergarten

11.Last Christmas: I was moving and it was hellacious

12.When I turn my head left: my neck sometimes binds up and hurts.

13.When I turn my head right: nothing hurts.

14.My life is not complete without: oxygen. Love is like oxygen. You get too much it gets you high. Not enough and you're going to die. Love gets you high.

15.By this time next year: I expect to be one year older and more disgusted than ever with our government and its bullshit.

16.I have a hard time understanding: psychopaths, but I am studying and trying to understand them because they seem determined to bother me.

17.One time at a family gathering: my brother showed up super high. When you say that you have to stretch it out like "Suuuuuuuuuuper high!" So he sat in a recliner in the middle of the living room with my parents and my sisters all around and he just jabbered like an idiot about all his fantasies, which in his chemically altered mind were reality, and he made it crystal clear once and for all to my dad that he is a drug addict, something we'd been trying to get through to my dad for almost my entire life.

18.Take my advice: ignore the noise in the press and just look for who is profiting and who is taking the money from them and dancing to their tune. The man behind the curtain is what matters, not the big giant Wizard of Oz floating head above the flames. He's just an illusion, a misdirection to keep you distracted so you don't see what's really going on.

19.My ideal breakfast is: not so early in the morning.

20.If you visit my hometown: be prepared for highly educated passive/aggressive people to screw with you in traffic for absolutely no good reason.

21.My friends are: scattered to the winds

22.If you spend the night at my house: a cat will probably come visit you in the middle of the night.

23.I would stop my wedding if: the church caught fire.

24.The world could do without: mosquitos.

25.I'd rather lick the belly of a cockroach than: Nope, not doing that

26.The most recent thing I've bought myself is: a refrigerator, cause the old one is making death rattles

27.And, by the way: its time for me to hit the road for home

28.The last time I was high: I was at a concert and the air was thick with smoke.

29.In the past I shouldn't have been: so afraid of failure. But I was who I was and that cannot be changed. Time only moves forward.

30.Once, at a bar/club: two hot girls kept hitting on me and then they left a phone number for me to call them, but I am married so I did not call. That's it. That's all I got for this.

31.Last night, I: stayed up too late and now I am regretting it.

32.If I didn't have any obligations tomorrow: I would not go to work and just stay home and probably end up doing whatever chores my wife feels like I should be doing because that's how life is now.

33.A better name for me would be: that guy.

34.In the last 6 months: I've packed up a house and moved 200 miles and it was a nightmare.

35.If I ever go back to school: I will only take classes for fun, not for work, because I am done doing that. Of course, I say that and I am about to have to study like mad for all the new crap my boss wants me to learn.

36.I bet you didn't know: that I need to pee.

37.I am: really really needing to pee

38.I read: a mixture of factual books and fiction books and I usually alternate between them.

39.Every birthday: I get older by one year

40.I regret: too many things from my past that I cannot change.
