Cheese is ok. I normally like it with something else. When used on sandwiches or burgers I don't like it melted on, but put on as a slice. Colby is my favorite.

2. Have you ever done heroin?
Never have, never will.

4. What are you doing tonight?
Two of my daughters are coming to visit and spend the night.

5. Do you get nervous before doctor appointments?
No.

They're ok. Nothing special, nothing awful. I tend to minimize how often I eat them since they're not that healthy.

7. What's your favorite Christmas song?
I have several which are favorites, but not one which is right at the time. In the small group, among others, are: God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen, White Christmas (I know that's not the official name), Silver Bells, Here Comes Santa Claus, Silent Night.

8. What do you prefer to drink in the morning?
Earl Gray tea, hot, with just a drop of lemon.

Haven't tried it in a long time. I suspect no longer!

I don't wear jewelry now. When I have in the past it's been limited to my class ring.

Yes. I didn't really during my previous marriage because it made it impossible. Now I've rekindled the relationship with valued old friends, and have made many new ones (including some of y'all!).

13. Do you miss someone?
My parents, younger sister, and brother-in-law, first and foremost. They're all dead. I miss others who have fallen by the wayside for one reason or another.

14. Middle name?
So unique that I'm not sharing it here. It would be a dead ringer identifier.

(It's 6 something in the morning - I'm an early riser.)

I don't really spend much time hating. It's too much of a negative emotion to give much time to.

Back home where I grew up.

Party at my older sisters.
