Never been tagged

In all my many five months of blogging I have never been tagged (specifically by name). So thanks Cass, for tagging me. I hope you guys don't die of boredom:

1.Do you like bleu cheese? No way. I'm so picky I don't even like soup.
2. Have you ever smoked? I have never been offered a smoke...but I'm confident I would still say NO.
3. Do you own a gun? Heck no.
4. What flavor Kool-Aid was your favorite? I prefer the watermelon invisible Kool-Aid, and I will explain why: 1. It doesn't stain. 2. It doesn't taste as disgustingly strong. 3. It's fun to trick first-time tasters that it's water (btw, Cass, didn't I trick you once with it?). 4. It's not sticky. OK; that last one was a lie. Of course it's sticky; it's still Kool-Aid!
5. Do you get nervous about doctor appointments? Yep, esp. my kids' appointments when they get shots.
6. What do you think of hot dogs? Turkey Franks are the best.
7. Favorite Christmas movie? the Grinch (with Jim Carrey) by a mile! It's not just my favorite Christmas movie; It is my favorite movie EVER. I make myself resist watching it year-round so it will still be special when December comes. How geeky am I? My class even watched it in French today (en francais, bien sur!)
8. What do you prefer to drink in the morning? I try and be healthy and have fruit and water. But then 9:00 rolls around and I get hungry and eat whatever's around (at school all I have is granola bars). Did that even answer the question?
9. Can you do push-ups? Yeah-I used to go to "cardio camp" at the gym and our instructor would have us do push-ups by the 50's. It was intense. I went to that class until I was 5 mos. pregnant with Ethan. I was more in shape then than I am now.
10. What's your favorite piece of jewelry? My rings; I feel naked without them.
11. Favorite hobby? Cassidy has nine scrapbooks. Need I say more? And I asked Santa for a Cricut machine.
12. Do you have ADD? No, but all my students seem to.
13. What's one trait you hate about yourself? I hate how I somehow think I have to steal all the attention when I'm in a group. Even when the subject has nothing to do with me; I'm working on it.
14. Middle initial? J.
15. Name 3 thoughts at this exact moment? I'm hungry. I'm tired. I don't want to plan my lessons.
16. Name 3 drinks you regularly drink? milk, juice, water. In that order. (Bad, I know)
17. Current worry? How to survive another half-year teaching. This Christmas break is arriving just in time.
18. Current hate right now? The disrespectful attitude of adolescents towards teachers.
19. Favorite place to be? My bed.
20. How did you ring in the new year? I usually go to the New Year's Party at my sister's house. But Joel ALWAYS works New Years, so it's not my favorite holiday.
21. Where would you like to go? On a Cruise to anywhere.
22. Name 3 people to tag? Sheila, Anna and Ann Elise
23. Do you own slippers? Do Mukluks count? They are the best! (Big woven moccasins that go up the leg)
24. What shirt are you wearing? A white tank-top with a green half-sweater.
25. Do you like sleeping on satin sheets? Sure, but lame question.
26. Can you whistle? Not very well. It takes me a minute just to get out one good toot.
27. Favorite color? Pink, although I don't wear it half as much as I used to.
28. Would you be a pirate? Can I change these questions? Seriously.
29. What songs do you sing in the shower? Right now? Baby, it's cold out side, Let it Snow, Il est ne, le divin enfant...you get the idea. Usually? RESPECT (by Aretha Franklin), all the songs from "Enchanted," kid songs when the kids are awake to keep them entertained, the list goes on...poor Joel has to listen to me.
30. Favorite girl's name? Cassidy and Mia. Joel will never let me name my daughter Mia. (Me a Keeper!)
31. Favorite boy's name? Ethan
32. What's in your pocket right now? no pockets.
33. Last thing that made you laugh? I am laughing right now at Cassidy who is clapping...for no reason at all.
34. What vehicle do you drive? a white Chevy Aveo. It's like a tiny tiny mini-van. My neighbor's little boy said, "Look, Mom, it's a baby van."
35. Worst injury? I fractured a bone in my foot in high-school, but I didn't let it slow me down way bad. I still danced at the dances. In college I broke my wrist rollerblading backwards (not my brightest moment). I had to write left-handed for over a month. It was a rough semester.
36. Do you love where you live? Clearfield is not the most attractive place to live, but I LOVE my friends I have met in the townhomes. There are some jogging trails, but I have to drive to them, which to me defeats the purpose.
37. How many TVs do you have in your house? one and it is in the freezing cold basement, so we have no idea what is going on in the world.
38. Who is your loudest friend? I'm too loud to notice.
39. Do you have any pets? No, but I want to get Cassidy a fish.
40. Does someone have a crush on you? I used to have problems with all males named Travis, but that was a long time ago. I think I'm pretty safe now.
41. Your favorite book? Are you my mother? (a kid book)
42. Do you collect anything? scrapbook supplies.
43. Favorite sports team? the Jazz, I guess.
44. What song do you want played at your funeral? What? I have NO idea. If I had to choose, I guess it would be the Prayer by Josh Groban.
