Today’s Question(s):

What is your favorite color?

Purple

How many objects of that color are in the room with you at the moment?

Only my clipboard.

What color do you dislike the most?
Not really any colors I dislike.

Bonus Question:

If someone gives you a gift that you happen to dislike or can’t use, do you:

Wear or use it, even though you don’t care for it?
Return it to the store for credit or an exchange?
Regift it to someone else?
Include it in your next garage sale?
Donate it to a charity?
Other?
It usually sits around collecting dust until I get in one of my rare moods where I round up everything I never use and either give it away or toss it.

Extra Credit Question:

Are you an early riser or a night owl?

If I had my way I would not get up before the crack of noon. However I rarely get my way. I have no set schedule for sleeping. Work often dictates when I sleep.

Is (or was) your significant other or other family member on the same kind of sleeping schedule you are?
I am as single as it gets.

Just for Fun:

Boy, the last time I was that _____________ was when I _________________!

I have spent the last 10 minutes trying to come up with an answer to the fill in the blanks. Nothing has come to mind so I am going to blow off answering it.

[quote=MidwesternBookWorm;22768324]Bright and beautiful Monday morning to you all! I hope this week is starting off on a positive note for everyone. It’s the final Monday of January, and I just can’t imagine where the month has gone so quickly; it seems like we were just taking down the holiday decorations last week. Of course, all the stores around here have had their displays of hearts and cupids out since about December 26, so I guess I shouldn’t be so surprised that February is just around the corner.

But Valentine’s Day is still a couple of weeks away at this point, and first we’ve got some important business to discuss. It’s time for:

[b]Today’s Question(s):

What is your favorite color? Turquoise blue.

How many objects of that color are in the room with you at the moment? Five.

What color do you dislike the most? I think every color has it's place. I don't care for the baby poop browns some people pick as a wall color.


Bonus Question:

If someone gives you a gift that you happen to dislike or can’t use, do you:

Wear or use it, even though you don’t care for it?
Return it to the store for credit or an exchange?
Regift it to someone else?
Include it in your next garage sale? Eventually.
Donate it to a charity?
Other?


Extra Credit Question:

Are you an early riser or a night owl? Lately I'm an early riser.

Is (or was) your significant other or other family member on the same kind of sleeping schedule you are? Yes.


Have a great week.
