If you woke up one morning and realized you were all-powerful, what is the first thing you would do?
Submitted by loveless.

Get out of bed.

If you could only eat ONE cereal for the rest of your life, which one would you pick?

Kellogg's Crunchy Nut. Well, it is irresistably tasty.

How do you like to quench your thirst on a hot summer day?

I drink the blood of virgin princesses and lap the tears of mewling babes.

Summer is finally here! What are your plans?

Yeahhhh ... Summer ...

Southern hemisphere relevance fail

My plans are as follows: stay warm, get paid, hang out with friends often, do no pre-reading for uni.

On a relatively unrelated note, I'm not really into meat at the moment. My parents apparently don't know how to cook meals that don't have dead animals as the main ingredient, so I've been cooking for myself. Good training for later life, if nothing else, but I think I've ended up eating way healthier too. Fruit is niiiice, ramen with soysauce is my god, and salads with nuts, mushrooms and alfalfa as ingredients are droolworthy.

My days go something like this:

• Set alarm for 10am
• Get out of bed at 12:25pm
• Decide I should eat something healthy
• Melt cheese flavoured with soysauce and then add some bread as an afterthought
• Decide I should walk the dogs before I go out
• Go and train Marilyn's alsatians
• Get home, realise I haven't walked my dogs
• Play with dogs for 2 minutes
• Have a shower
• Facebook, gmail, dinosaur comics, msn, Nedroid, hotmail, xkcd, yahoo mail, cyanide and happiness
• Sit and stare at the screen blankly for a while
• Pat dogs
• lolcats, loldogs, overheard in new york, overheard everywhere, overheard in the office, overheard at the beach
• Decide that I should probably cook dinner for everyone
• Facebook, renew dead msn conversations
• Let dogs out of loungeroom so they can say hello to mum and dad who just got home
• Failblog
• Eat crappy dinner prepared by tired parents
• Feed birds, feed dogs, take dogs for piss, realise I still haven't walked dogs
• Half-watch random tv shows parents put on while surfing net until 10:30pm
• Decide to go to bed early
• Engrish, texts from last night, graphjam, lookalikes
• Realise that it's after midnight
• Set alarm for 10am
• Rinse and repeat ad nauseum
  
• I have no life
  

What is the most flattering compliment you've ever received?
Submitted by Squelsy.
"Talking to you helped me so much. You made me feel better about myself, and your suggestions were fantastic. We can get through this now. I don't know what I would have done without you." Thatl was from a lovely lady with a kelpie who'd been in several dog fights. I took her away from class and we just walked and talked for about an hour and a half. This comment came when she saw me the next week.

I mean ... WOW. It's things like that that make me love being a dog trainer so damn much.
I've recieved all the most moving and meaningful complements from people i've worked one-on-one with at dog training. Mm, warm and fuzzy ^^

Do you hold grudges against people? Tell us about an incident if you do, and if you don't, tell us how you rise above it.

Nah. It's like ya, wateva. (Worst answer ever, but true enough.)

What never fails to make you laugh?
Submitted by BeautifullyBroken.

Your face.

You being friends, of course, and I mean it in a nice way.

My assignment is giving me a headache. I wish I was (were?) more organised. Actually no ... I think I just wish everything was (were?) as interesting as linguistics. I always get my linguistics assignments done in good time.

What were your first words? If you have children, what were their first words?

"Bye-bye", I said, because that's what I heard every day when I was left in creche from the day I was weaned.

My sister had the same first words and my mother has been guilty ever since :P

The smell of gasoline: Love it or hate?

Makes me physically ill, almost on par with cigarette smoke.

I do like the smell of wood polish, which I'm told some people don't.
