Why not learn about each other? (Questionnaire thing)

[covingtoncat73]

I thought this was a more than usually amusing questionnaire that was going around my Facebook.

1. Who are you named after? Dylan Thomas's wife. Also, since both Caitlin and Kathleen are different forms of Catherine, my mom and a couple of great grandmothers.
2. Last time I cried? Mmmmmm...it has been awhile. Can't remember. Being somewhat aspbergery/NVLD has its benefits.
3. Soda or water? Neither. Tea.
4. What is your favorite lunch meat? Those assorted Italian meats from Costco. Too bad they are so high in sodium.
5. Favorite flower? Roses. I like a fragrant red rose.

16. Favorite Color? Green.
17. Tattoos? No
18. Hair color? Medium dark brown.
19. Eye color? Medium golden-brown.

23. Chevy, Ford, or Buick? My first car was a Chevy.
