I have on occasion, but rarely.

10) So you have ten fingers/thumbs and ten toes?
How did you know?!?!

9) What was the most recent thing you said No to?
I declined to accompany Twil to the hospital recently.  SOUNDS WAY WORSE THAN IT REALLY WAS.  She's fine, fine, really, we're good, thanks.

8) What was the last thing you ate?
I had a bowl of oxtail stew for dinner--delicious!  No breakfast yet.  Presumably black coffee and 4/10 of the top Rxes don't count, right? 

7) What is your favorite way to be naughty?
Pass.

No, ok.  There's a game called Mad Gab. The object of the game is to understand what regular English phrase is meant by the phonetically similar but very different words printed on the cards.  It's pretty fun, and occasionally hilarious.  It reminds me of the test where you're looking at words that are the names of colors, but the color of the type and the word the letters spell are different, like PINK printed in blue letters.  The sensation of having to think about two things at once and discern the "right" meaning between them is an enjoyable exercise for me.  A naughty response I sometimes enjoy is to deliberately respond to the unintended meaning in a conversation.  Classic double entendres are, of course, classic.  But even ambiguous (or lazy) constructions like "Do you want to go to the Italian restaurant or the Greek restaurant?" are fairly answered with "Yes."  Truthful, honest, unhelpful.  Yeah. Naughty.  Those are fun.

6) When was the last time you physically rolled dice?
It's probably been a couple weeks. I recently got a little solitaire game called Doom Machine and it's *brutal*.  I'll post a couple pictures.  They're just d6s, yellow ones and black ones.

5) What/Who was the last thing you punched?
A sleeping bag into its stuff sack.

4) What is your favorite season?
The current one, until near the end of it then definitely the upcoming one.  It's a cycle.  And spring, I like spring.

3) Which part of the tHGttG trilogy is the best?
The 42 towels.

2) Have you ever worn a tutu (real or costume?)
No, I can't remember ever wearing a tutu, real or costume.

1) What is your favorite word right now?
Kindness.

0) Is my laundry ready?

Numbers are everything, my friend.  Well number and words.  Which are kind of like numbers. ;)

My daughter came home from school with the making a wish at 11:11 thing, I'd never heard of it before.  But I do smile inwardly when I notice the time is 12:34 or think "my time" if if see it's 9:23
