1. If someone offered you five million dollars to dissappear for one year, would you do it? That means no contact with anyone during that year but you could tell everyone that you were leaving and why before you left.

Oh man, talk about a moral question. At first I thought "heck yeah!" then I thought of the people I'd leave behind. So, I'd say no - my family and friends mean way too much for me to just disappear, even if I do get to come back. I'll just keep playing the lotto. :-)

2. Have you ever been in a car wreck, gotten a check for the damage and not fixed the car? If so, what did you do with the money?

Nope

3. Which room in your house is most neglected?

Oh my, there is a spare bedroom that has just grown and grown with things that I have no other place for. I keep saying I'm going to go clean that room - maybe this weekend. LOL!

4. What is the strangest thing you have ever eaten?

It may not be strange to anyone else, but my SO once 'fed' me a soup that had oysters in it. I think I chewed on that oyster (it was HUGE, I tell you) for 2 minutes before I finally just swallowed it whole. I almost died--very very nasty.

5. Do you regularly go get things done to your body? Ex. waxings, nails done, coloring, tanning?

I get my eyebrows waxed every couple of weeks, otherwise I'd have one big caterpiller growing out of my head.

6. What was the last "little white lie" you told and to whom?

This morning....I slept in (on purpose) and told my boss I forgot to set the alarm. It's ok, I'm making up the time this afternoon.

7. Have you ever seen a ghost or have another freaky story to tell?

My house is haunted. About 2 years ago I came home from a friend's and crawled into bed (I always keep the bedroom door closed when I sleep). My mom was up getting ready for work - she was in the living room putting on her shoes. About a minute after I get in bed I hear female voices. I thought my mom had turned on the tv. She came to my room and said "who are you talking to??" I said that I wasn't talking and I thought it was her watching TV. There were no radios on, no TVs on, my mom and I are the only females in the house, it was 4:30 am and our house is too far back from the street to hear anyone talking (if they were walking up the street). SOOOOOOOOOO - who was it? A few months later I was getting up to go to work (everyone else leaves home before I get up) and I heard male voices. I just got up and went about my business. I can never understand what the voices say - I just know they are talking. My dad claims to have heard footsteps when no one else was home. One night my mom and I were shopping and he heard voices in the kitchen - he went to see if we had gotten home, but no one was there. LOL! I always say it's fine until I actually SEE something.

**As long as I could come back...absolutely. The things that can be done with that $$ and everyone that would benefit! Family, friends, charity and such...!!!!

2. Have you ever been in a car wreck, gotten a check for the damage and not fixed the car? If so, what did you do with the money?

** Nope **

3. Which room in your house is most neglected?

**Neglected how...cleaning, decorating or I'm just not in it much...hmmmm. I'd have to safely say I utilize/clean/decorated all the rooms. I'm in an apartment (albeit a somewhat large one) but it's still not the same as a house.

4. What is the strangest thing you have ever eaten?

**Alligator. It does taste like chicken!

5. Do you regularly go get things done to your body? Ex. waxings, nails done, coloring, tanning

**All of the above including a few more

6. What was the last "little white lie" you told and to whom?

**To a client this morning. I need to go take him some baseball tickets and he's far away and didn't feel like driving out there today. So I told him I was in a meeting and would get out to him tomorrow. (the game isn't until this weekend!)

7. Have you ever seen a ghost or have another freaky story to tell?

**Never, I'd be totally scared. I don't even watch scary movies!

Hey Kerstin....actually, that was me with the haunted house and oysters. LOL. My first reaction to those oysters was to chew---ugh - never again!!! The story about your grandfather gave me the heebie jeebies. I guess ghosts talking in my house is ok but an spirits of loved ones in a elevator freaks me out. I also remembered another story - I was headed to school on I-85 at rush hour one day (if you aren't familiar with it - its a 5 or 6 lane interstate with tons and tons of cars at rush hour) in the pouring rain. I had just lost an uncle (his wife had died 2 years prior - I was devastated each time). As I started to merge onto the interstate, my car hit a huge puddle of water and i lost control and started to skid. I ended up in the center lane, stalled out, facing NORTHBOUND in the SOUTHBOUND lanes. I saw tons and tons of headlights coming at me so I just let go of the wheel and covered my face. Somehow, the car made it all the way back to the shoulder without anyone hitting me. I like to believe my uncle and aunt were right there me, getting me to safety. A nice policeman turned the car around for me (while I stood in the rain, I guess he wasnt THAT nice). :-)
