One summer I went to the car wash to clean out my car and I didn't take the keys out of the ignition and when I got out I hit the automatic button and shut the door...some guy was there cleaning out his truck and thank goodness I had my trunk open!

1. Have you ever been in a car accident? When? What happened? I've been in 3 accidents. First one happened when it had just started raining. I was going down a steep hill that had a curve in it, hit the brakes, they locked, I froze and ended up sliding into a fence. The second accident was on my way to work at the University where I attended and as I was turning into a street, this guy was turning onto my street. He and I collided hitting the corners of our left front fenders. He was in a huge bus of a car so NO damage beyond a scratch. I was in a matchbox car and it was totalled. Also knocked my car backwards about 5 feet!!! Then HE backed up so it looked like he was waiting at the stop sign and I hit him. Hmmm...then HOW the heck did MY car end up in the middle of the intersection?????? Damn insurance salesman!! Seriously, he was! Then wreck #3 was my fault according to the police report. However, if the darned Asst DA hadn't run the red light half a block down, it wouldn't have happened. Totalled that car too and broke my collar bone. I looked, saw the light go red 1/2 a block away, knew he should STOP, so I took my foot off the brake, hadn't even TOUCHED the gas pedal yet, had barely moved....his truck caught my front fender in front of the front tires, and knocked it 3 feet off the other side, crumpled my hood, and turned me 3/4 of the way around and knocked my car up onto the sidewalk!! Then he bounced off me and into a car in the other lane that was waiting for the light to turn. My insurance got to pay for everyone. Nice, huh? OH....they ruled he was only going 20 MPH and that I was doing 25.....WTF??? I hadn't even touched the gas pedal...and how would I be doing 25 mpg only 2 feet from a dead stop?? Guess it helps to have connections.....The jerk was late for work and was taking his daughter to daycare....she was only 2 and wasn't even buckled into her car seat!!! She ended up hitting the dashboard and getting a bump on her head. Fortunately it wasn't serious...but we ended up at the same ER and was he ever mad! Not concerned for his daughter.....just sat there mumbling about how inconvenienced he was and how much work he needed to do. JERK! Can you tell I have horrible feelings about that one still? I was 20 when it happened! 2. Do you like your handwriting? Not really. 3. Have you ever locked yourself out of your home? your car? When? How did you get back in? Both. Had to have the base police get me back into my car, SOOOOO embarrassing. Then, once the kids locked me out of the van and they were too little to know how to unlock it. Hubby had to come with the spare key. Kids also locked me out of the house once with the keyless deadbolt and again they were too little to then unlock it. I had to run to the office and report it and they had the maintenance guy come break a window and get me back inside to the boys. Other times when I've been locked out, there's always been a window open that we could go thru. 4. Do you have your teeth cleaned every 6 months? No...I hate the dentist. REALLY need to go in for a cleaning though....Won't even admit the last time I had them cleaned. 5. Do you go for your physical every year? Again, no. I really need to schedule this too.... 6. Are you having problems falling asleep at night? When did it start? Once you go to sleep do you stay asleep? If you wake up, do you have problems going back to sleep? Yup. Started about 3 weeks ago. I just can't go to sleep at night. Once I do though, I'm able to sleep really well...and if I wake up to go potty, I'm able to fall asleep again fairly easily....as long as I have music going. If it's quiet, I lay there for hours again... 7. Which company do you use for your cellular service? Cingular, the New AT&T 8. Are you getting a tax refund? What do you plan to do with it? If you are paying, do you wait till April 15 or do you do it immediately? Getting a refund, thank goodness. Wi**** would post to my account today! Had to mail it in, so don't know when I'll get it. We plan to use part of it on home repairs/upgrades, part will go into savings. 9. Did you have a bean bag chair when you were a kid? No, but I always wanted one. 10. Did you smoke cigarettes before WLS? Do you smoke now? NO and NO and never plan to start.

1. Have you ever been in a car accident? When? What happened? I've been in several. The most recent has the funniest story however. About 4 years ago I was stopped at a redlight waiting to make a "right turn on red". There was a car coming (with the right-of-way) so I decided not to turn out in front of them. Well "the person" behind me thought I had gone and put the pedal to the metal and BAM right into my rear end. Totally his fault. What makes it so funny? The guy who hit me...was a cop in a cop car! Boy was he embarrased. (all my other accidents where from my younger years and where all my fault). 2. Do you like your handwriting? It's ok. Typing has made me lazy though. 3. Have you ever locked yourself out of your home? your car? When? How did you get back in? When I was younger I locked myself out of the house all the time. I would carefully remove a panel in the garage door, crawl through and get in that way. My dad boarded up the loose panel eventually and it forced me ot remember my key. I locked myself out of my car once - I called AAA. 4. Do you have your teeth cleaned every 6 months? Sadly I let it lapse. For several years. Thus the need for my most recent dental work. I have a renewed commitment to dental health now. I was lucky - only one tooth had problems! 5. Do you go for your physical every year? Yes 6. Are you having problems falling asleep at night? When did it start? Once you go to sleep do you stay asleep? If you wake up, do you have problems going back to sleep? I have no problems with sleeping at all. I fall asleep, just like someone turns off my switch. I turn off the light, lay down, and I don't remember a thing until morning. 7. Which company do you use for your cellular service? Sprint 8. Are you getting a tax refund? What do you plan to do with it? If you are paying, do you wait till April 15 or do you do it immediately? I haven't figured it out yet - I do the EZ form (don't make enough money to make itemizing worth it)...I file by phone - usually around the 15th of April - I may do it earlier this year. 9. Did you have a bean bag chair when you were a kid? No, but I had one in college. 10. Did you smoke cigarettes before WLS? Do you smoke now? I smoked when I was 19/20 for about 3 months.
