1. What was your first alcoholic drink? beer
2. What was your first job?  Dunkin’ Donuts—I worked behind the counter and in the back frosting and filling the doughnuts. I  started working there when I was a junior in HS and kept working there during the summers and on breaks all through college.
3. What was your first car? A used 1982 Toyota Corolla named Sweet Pea. I loved that car!
4. What was your first mobile phone? I have no idea. My current cell phone has no bells or whistles and I only use it for emergencies or to order pizza on the way home from work (which I guess could be considered an emergency). I use my iPod Touch much more often.
5. What is your first proper memory? Feeding the deer at a local park when I was about 3.
6. Who was your first teacher? Mrs. Koehler in kindergarten
7. Which fictional character do you wish was real? I’d love to hang out with Harriet the Spy.
8. Where did you go on your first ride on an airplane? Los Angeles when I was in 5^th grade—we went with my dad when he had to go there for a conference for work.
9. Who was your first best friend? Marty Weir—I can remember crying with her on her porch the day she moved away when we were in 2^nd grade.
10. What was your first detention for? I can only remember getting one—for being late to class. I was not a rule breaker in school.
11. What’s your strongest sense? I have ears like a bat—I think it’s a carry-over from teaching.
12. Who was your first kiss? JLM
13. What was the first film you remember seeing at the cinema? The original “Lady and The Tramp”—I was in 2^nd grade and my parents dropped me and a friend off at the local movie theater. It was no big deal back then—can you imagine any parent letting two seven year olds go to a movie alone today?
14. What’s the largest amount of money you’ve ever won? I won several hundred dollars on a slot machine once.
15. What’s the largest amount of money you’ve spent in one spree? Hmmm…maybe spending money on furniture? I redecorated my bedroom about a year ago.
16. If you had a warning label, what would yours say? Liars will be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.
17. Have you ever got sweet revenge on anyone? I’ve wanted to… but I usually try to remember that what goes around, comes around.
18.  Have you ever been to a live concert? Sure! James Taylor, Kenny Loggins, Al Jureau, Genesis…I know I’m dating myself here . . .
19. Have you ever been to see stand up comedy? no
20. Have you ever needed stitches? Nope—I’ve never had to be put back together!
