The "Grown Up" Survey
(Meant to be completed by those out of high school)
Tired of all of those surveys made up by high school kids?
'Have you ever kissed someone?'
'Missed someone?'
'Told someone you loved them?'
'Drank alcohol?'
Here are 50 questions for the people who are a little more "mature"...
1. What bill do you hate paying the most?
The electric bill - it's so freakin' high and we haven't managed to bring it down as much as I'd like.

3. Last time you puked from drinking?
when
beetiger and I went out, I was sick from what I thought was alcohol, but it ended up being the stomach flu. Before that, I don't remember the last time I went out drinking.
4. When is the last time you got drunk and danced on a bar?
I haven't ever. Just dancing in public, period, probably means alcohol was involved.

19. What is your favorite cartoon character?
