The Saturday Six on Monday

And, for the second week in a row, I answer Patrick's Saturday Six questions on Monday.

1. Open local telephone directory and turn to the "X" listings in the residential section:  give the first surname and the last surname that appears in the "X" listings.  (In other words, what last name beginning with X is the first listing in the "X" section, and which last name beginning with X is the final one before the "Y" listings begin?)

I'm sorry, I don't have a phone book.

2. Of the seven deadly sins:  pride, envy, gluttony, anger, greed, sloth, and lust, which are you most recently guilty of?  (Details aren't necessary...unless you wanna...)

Most recently?  Let's see...  it's Monday, so I'm gonna have to go with sloth.  I don't ever want to get my sorry butt out of bed on a Monday morning.

3. What is the last dish you cooked completely from scratch?  ("Hamburger Helper" doesn't count!)

Me?  Cook?  From scratch?  Um.  Gosh.  From scratch, you say?  Mmm.  I had a recipe for some sort of shrimp salad I think I made back before I got the cat.

4. List the states in which you've actually set foot.  (If you drove through a state but never got out of the car, don't count it.  If you've flown over a state without landing in it, don't count it.)

Oh boy.  Someone give me a map.

Arizona, California, Connecticut, Delaware, Florida, Hawaii, Illinois, Indiana, Maryland, Massachusetts, Missouri, Nevada, New Jersey, New York, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, South Carolina, Texas, Utah, Virginia.

Others I'm not sure of because I think I may have changed planes there but don't recall exactly:  Georgia, Kansas, Oklahoma

5. You must give up TWO of the following "modern" conveniences.  Which two would you most be likely to toss out for good?
A) Dishwasher
B) Remote Control (for all devices)
C) Compact Disc Player
D) DVD Player
E) Internet
F) Washer/Dryer
G) Microwave
H) Cellular Telephone
I) Your Online Journal

Well, it's cheating slightly, but I think I'd ditch the CD player because I can do nearly everything with the internet and an ipod.  After that, I guess it would be the journal, seeing as I did quite well without it for all those years.

6. READER'S CHOICE QUESTION #12 from Emeraldcalf: What is your biggest pet peeve when it comes to your significant other?

That would be the fact that I don't have one.
