Have You Ever? Stolen Anything: Yes. I went through a shoplifting phase when I was in 7th grade, but fortunately quit before I ever got caught. Been Drunk Before Noon: No Had Sex In A Public Place: No Got Caught Telling A Lie: Yes Got A Speeding Ticket: Yes Been Arrested: No Littered: Yes. Once. I know that sounds like a cop-out, but seriously, I’ve been known to stop my car, back up, and make whoever threw something out of my car window pick it up. So I’ve felt guilty for years over the day I put an empty soda cup and a bag from the fast food restaurant on the ground and drove away. There wasn’t a trash can where I was, but still, it’s not like I couldn’t have kept it in my car and threw it away later. Fantasized About A Co-Worker: Yes. When I was much, much younger and unmarried. Cheated On A Test: Yes. In 7th grade Spanish, actually, it was considered de rigeur to cheat. And what’s funny is that I really didn’t need to, but I really felt the need to fit in. Cheated In A Relationship: Yes. In high school. One time. Guilt? Oh, yeah. Failed A Class: No Wished You Were Someone Else: Yes Cried During A Movie: Yes Had A One Night Stand: Yes. Remember above where I confessed to cheating once, in high school? Yeah. Wish Death On Someone: No. Been mean to someone else for no good reason: Yes, another high school thing, and I still feel guilty about it. ---

Got A Speeding Ticket: No, I don’t drive. Been Arrested: No and never plan to. Littered: Yes, but only out of a lack of options (London doesn’t have enough litter bins). Fantasized About A Co-Worker: HELL yes. Cheated On A Test: No Cheated In A Relationship: No Failed A Class: Yes Wished You Were Someone Else: Yes, but not anymore Cried During A Movie: Lots of times Had A One Night Stand: Most of my sexual experiences have been one night stands. Wish Death On Someone: Yes, and it’s a consistent source of disappointment for me that my wish hasn’t come true. Been mean to someone else for no good reason: I don’t think so, but I may have done in the past and just forgotten about it. ---
