40 Questions (plus a few). 2009 version.

1) Was 2009 a good year for you? No.

2) What was your favorite moment of the year? Singing 50’s songs with my dad, while riding through the Georgia countryside in his big ol’ pickup truck.

3) What was your least favorite moment of the year? My phone call with someone I wish very, very bad things upon.

5) Who were you with? I was alone.

6) Where will you be when 2009 ends? At home.

7) Who will you be with when 2009 ends? My wonderful husband.

8. Did you keep your new years resolution of 2009? One of them, yes. I have stopped volunteering to help with committees and things of that nature. Don’t ask me to help, and don’t ask me for money, because my days of giving a rat’s red arse are OVER. Sh’naynay, or whatever your idiotic name is, it gave me great pleasure to find that you were as miserable as you made me, and I hope that you get all the joy in life you deserve, and hopefully by people judging you without knowing a damn thing about you.

9) Do you have a new years resolution for 2009?

• Survive.

10) Did you fall in love in 2009? No, but I stayed in love, which was wonderful.

11) If yes, with whom? The Mister, AKA my husband of many years.

12) If yes, do they know? Hah! He better. As he likes to say, “I have papers!”

13) Are you still in love with them? More, with every single breath.

14) Do you regret it? No

15) Did you break up with anyone in 2009? No

16) Did you make any new friends in 2009? Yes.

26) Did you see any concerts this year? No.

27) Did you have a favorite concert in 2009? N/A

28) Did you drink a lot of alcohol in 2009? No, but I had a few dirty martinis. Nummy.

29) Did you do a lot of (not counting alcohol) drugs in 2008? No, not at all. People who do drugs (including pot) are idiots. I’ve helped put too many of the potheads back together after they smeared themselves along a stretch of highway, and it’s heartbreaking and depressing, and makes me very angry. Too many times, I’ve had to tell a sobbing, hysterical parent or spouse that their beloved family member is dead, or will be needing diaper changes for the rest of their life because of drugs, or have to tag and bag a ridiculously young girl who ought to be home shaving her legs and painting her toenails, and nothing anyone says will ever change my mind. So, yeah. I think they are idiots.

30) Did you hope for something you didn’t get in 2009? Yes, but I’m still hoping. It’ll happen. Or it won’t. Either way, I’ll be fine.

31) Did you do anything you are ashamed of this year? Yes. I snapped at my mom, because I’m an idiot who doesn’t deserve my perfect mother. Why can’t I keep my mouth shut? She’s wonderful, and I’m an ass. Grrrr.

32) What was the biggest lie you told in 2009? Every time I’ve asked about the well-being of certain individuals, it was a lie, because I don’t care, and I never have. I’d rather not hear a word about these folks ever again.

33) What was the worst lie someone told you? It’ll be $300. No, I’m sorry, it’ll be $976. Doh! I meant $410. Oops, my bad, it’s actually $842.

34) Did you treat somebody badly in 2009? Yes.

35) Did somebody treat you badly in 2009? Yes, very much so.

36) How much money did you spend in 2009? Enough.

37) What was your proudest moment of 2009? HAH! When the idiot who flew past me and flipped me off was in turn immediately pulled over by a cop.

38) What was your most embarrassing moment of 2009? I don’t remember one in particular.

39) If you could go back in time to any moment of 2009 and change something, what would it be? I’d take back every time I yelled or was unkind or sarcastic, and I’d HANG UP on the gigantic flaming idiot before the phone call even began, and I’d tell Sh’quaniakita (whatever) to get bent. And…I’d never cry. Ever.

40) What are your plans for 2009? To survive.

(A few questions of my own)

41) What was the nicest thing you were told in 2009? I love you.

42) What was the worst movie you saw in 2009? Bliss. (via Netflix)

43) What was the worst song you heard in 2009? Too many to count. If it’s sung by someone wearing a “grill”, who wears the crotch of their pants betwixt their knees, and doffs a baseball hat so that it stands, erect, 6 inches off of their head, replete with the price tag, chances are very good I think whatever tune they attempted to gargle out was fairly vile. (If you’re playing bluegrass fiddle or screeching/screaming out lyrics, chances are I hate your song, too.)

44) What was the best overall book you read in 2009? Hmm, too many to name. I’ll get back to this.

45) What was the worst book you read in 2009? Deep Storm

46) What was the last book you read in 2009? Currently reading several. Hush, Hush, Masquerade, Animal, Vegetable, Mineral, and several others. Will get back to this. Maybe.
