Another dream: I dreamed that I accidentally inoculated myself with some bacteria from the lab. I began throwing up this weird brown goo. My housemates were laughing at me.

Thursday Threesome

"A good film is when the price of the dinner, the theatre admission and the babysitter were worth it."
~ Alfred Hitchcock

Onesome- The dinner: What's your favorite meal? Is it something you get out or can you get it at home?

Sorry to be a wash-out on this, but I don't really have a favorite meal. There are some things that I won't eat, but generally I'm not that picky. I figure it's like that pet care advice for rat owners. Don't give a rat a variety mix because it will pick and choose what to eat and only get limited nutrition. Rather give it one of those food blocks that contains all the rat's nutritional need. If all people were rats, I'm the one who views most food as food blocks.

Twosome- the theatre Admission: What's your favorite movie and/or play and why?

I could give the answer that my favorite movie is The Red Violin. Clever plotting and cool music and all of that. Or I could say Lord of the Rings because, well, it's both geeky and mainstream. But to be honest, both seem a bit fuzzy to me. I haven't had so much time to watch anything lately.

Threesome- and the babysitter: We've all been left with a babysitter at one point or another. Did you have a favorite childhood babysitter? What made that person special?

Babysitters were actually few and far between in my childhood. I remember the babysitters I had were strange old women. I actually felt that I had to entertain them and not leave them up to their own devices. (If left to my own devices, I would have been reading or watching TV.) My parents were usually concerned that if they left their kids alone, they wouldn't be able to protect themselves if someone broke into the house, not that they would open the door to any strangers.

My parents also cited some rule about not leaving kids alone until they reached the age of fifteen and that leaving younger kids alone was illegal. Does anyone know if that's true or not?
