Curvy Jones on: The Friday Five (Jan 1, 2010!)
Guess what time it is, kids! I forgot it was Friday! Darn holiday, messing my time clock up. You know the rulez… Answer in the comments or take it to your blog and have your way with it… just make sure to post the linky so we can all stop and stare.
Would you rather…
1: eat nothing but chocolate or go without chocolate for the rest of your life?
> Go without. I like chocolate but I only really crave it every so often. I like hard candies like Jolly ranchers etc more than I like chocolate.
2: stub your toe or get a paper cut?
>Papercut. All day. I can cover that with a bandaid– can’t cover a stubbed toe!
3: write the news or make the news?
>Write it. But I wouldn’t mind being the assistant to the person making the news if it’s good news they’re making!
4: lose 10 pounds or gain 10 IQ points?
> Gain 10 IQ points. I’d love to be thin but I’d hate to get any dumber. :D
5: wear a costume to work or wear normal clothes to a Halloween party?
> I always wear normal clothes to Halloween parties. I am not a dresser-upper. I just go for the food.

Curvy Jones on: Getting To Know All About Me
I stole this from someone on the interwebz. I’m sure they won’t mind. *shifty eyes* Read it, then do one yourself and lemme know where I can stalk read all about you!
1. What is your occupation right now?
Executive Assistant
2. What color are your socks right now?
I don’t like socks.
3. What are you listening to right now?
Complete silence. It rocks.
4. What was the last thing that you ate?
Uhm, some fritos last night. Yeah I partied hard. Fritos and Dr Pepper.
5. Can you drive a stick shift?
I’m not coordinated enough. I’ll end up in your living room. Oops.
6. Last person you spoke to on the phone?
My parents, on Christmas. On my phone at least. At work, I can’t remember.
7. Do you like the person who sent this to you?
I stole it from someone on the interwebz. I’m sure she’s a nice person.
8. How old are you today?
35. I think. I can’t remember.
9. What is your favorite sport to watch on TV?
Dance. What, it’s a sport! I’m not a sports nut. If I am watching any kind of activity on TV, it’s probably ice skating or dance.
10. What is your favorite drink?
I’m a Diet Pepsi freak but I also like Sprite. If we DRANKIN’, I’ll do a Chambord Kamikaze or a Grape Nehi or a Smirnoff Ice. I’ve been known to enjoy a Long Island Iced Tea, though I haven’t tested that out a whole lot. I had a very brief love affair with Moscato wine but after the first bout I just didn’t like the taste anymore. I’m not much of a wine drinker and I’m a very very light weight.
11. Have you ever dyed your hair?
Yeah. ’bout to do it again, I like it dark.
12. Favorite food?
Hmmm that is a good question. I’m not sure I have a favorite. Then again, I’m hungry right now and when I’m hungry I would pretty much eat cement mix if it was spread on Texas Toast.

Season’s Eatings
1. What foods do you associate with this time of year?
> I’m not much for holiday food, but I always crave a roast or Prime rib around Christmas or a fried Turkey. And my dad’s dressing and candied yams. And pecan pie…. I’m hungry…
2. Which of them are your favorites? Your least favorites?
> Everything above? Yum. I do NOT like black eyed peas. They always serve them. NO LIKEY.
3. What traditional (or nontraditional) holiday foods do you make or buy every year?
> Unless I’m at home, I don’t do the holidays. I usually get some chicken, some potatoes, mac n’ cheese and rolls and I’m good.
4. Are you more likely to overindulge or abstain from seasonal treats?
> Abstain. By this point, I’m sick of sweets.
5. With all of the high-calorie temptations at this time of year, how do you manage your diet?
> Diet? Really. I just eat until I am literally sick of looking at it, then I am done. Thankfully my span of attention is very, very short.
Merry Christmas everyone!
Random– why is this chick on this commercial all excited that she got carded? She looks like she’s in her 50′s. Ain’t no way you were mistaken for a 19 yr old. Siddown.

- Among people you know, who is the most talented at wrapping gifts?
As always, I’ll reply in the comments. Also:
1. Party to go to Saturday. As usual, don’t wanna go. Will make myself go. I think. The hostess is from Tibet. She has promised to make Chinese dumplings. Pan fried… I really think it’s my duty to go and sample them.
2. More Social Butterflying– KARY is in town! I got a message from her yesterday. We’re supposed to hang out this weekend. Yit ti dee! I think this will make the first ‘friend from LJ’ that I’ve met. EXCITING.
3. Yes, my blog is schizophrenic. I’m still trying to find a theme that defines me. This is close, but it needs some customization. And whoa Nelly, it needs smaller font. Holy bifocals, Batman!
4. I posted another Thing. We’re on Nine. I’m gettin’ it together, Blog!

Curvy Jones on: Q&A -Fearsome
Q: The boogeyman, global thermonuclear war, being forced to eat broccoli—there’s a lot to be afraid of when you’re a kid. What was your biggest childhood fear?
A: I used to always be afraid of things under the bed, like getting out of bed, I was afraid that something would reach out and grab me. I’m kind of still afraid of the toilet, *lmao*

Curvy Jones on: Q&A- Miss Manners
Q: What recently developed technology—cell phones, wi-fi, laptops, handheld gaming devices, etc.—do you think has had the worst influence on how people behave in public?
A: Cell phones, for sure. Because without them, I wouldn’t be forced to listen to a one sided argument some lady is having with her man about something or other, all loud, in public. We hear snippets of people’s lives all day, everyday, just by listening to people’s phone convos. Remember when personal life was ‘personal’?

Curvy Jones on: Deal or No Deal
Q: What’s on your list of dealbreakers when it comes to romantic relationships?
A: Smoking, excessive drinking, rude to waitstaff/servers/your mom/women in your life, misogynistic attitude, lack of ambition, children, MULTIPLE marriages, bad hygiene & lack of general care and grooming, incarceration, violence.
All that and probably more but I’d have to really think about it.

Curvy Jones on:Q&A- Chatty
Q: Do you prefer texting or talking on the phone?
A:Neither. I want my text function turned off except for certain people and I have a well documented hate for the damn phone.
IM or Email is where it’s at, for me. I LOVE email.

Curvy Jones on: Q&A- You’ve Got Personality
Q: Have you ever taken a personality test like the Myers-Briggs or Enneagram? If so, did you agree with the results? And what was your type?
A: I can’t remember, but I think so. I’m a pretty linear person so most personality tests say the same thing–I’m a sarcastic asshole who possess a dry wit and a heart of gold. And that I like to be alone and not lonely and they value stability and loyalty.
I usually agree.
