PAST: Marbles, dolls, board games or dirt?

I played with Barbies with my little friends. I liked to make up soap opera-like plots. One in particular involved Ken secretly dating Skipper - which is more than a little disturbing, now that I think about it. I also rode my bike a lot and played in the vacant lot next to my house.

PRESENT: Dancing, driving, reading or gabbing?

Mostly reading and gabbing.

FUTURE: Ranting, raving, pissing or moaning?

Mostly ranting. What would 'bitching' be classified as?

PAST: Nobody's going to get angry at you about it now. So go ahead and tell us how old you were the first time you got a taste of an alcoholic beverage. You didn't really wait until it was legal, did you?

The first time was 9th or 10th grade; my best friend and I split one of those premixed strawberry daquiris at her house. Didn't imbibe again untill the night of our high school graduation, when a bunch of friends and I went to the beach and shared a bottle of champagne.

PRESENT: I don't have anything against drinking, I just don't want to be a drinker. What about you? Do you abstain, go wild or just have a sip of wine from time to time?

I have a beer from time to time; usually no more than two per time. I try not to drink only to improve my mood, but sometimes it happens.

FUTURE: Continuing the "what would you call it" thread, create a mixed drink and give it a name. Fanciful ingredients are encouraged, of course!

A "Screaming Ginevra" would involve a generous amount of Godiva White Chocolate liqueur, a splash of Godiva chocolate liqueur, and maybe some vodka for an added kick that wouldn't destroy the chocolatey goodness.
