Answer Me This

How often do you take public transportation?

Only when I'm on vacation. We have a bus service here, but it's much easier to just drive myself. I've used the local commuter train to get to Chicago several times, the Metro in DC, and the Metro in Paris.

How many cousins do you have?

I have 2 first cousins, which are the cousins I'm closest to. I've have lots more distant cousins, but I don't really know them.

Have you ever fired a gun?

I have not. Last year, my brother-in-law took his guns up to my sister-in-law's house for the 4th of July and most of the family did some shooting at targets. I stayed in the house. I'm a klutz and am terrified I'll shoot my foot or something.

However, should something happen, I do know where my mother-in-law's gun is located and how to fire it.

Do you ride roller coasters?

 I do if they meet my very specific conditions. They cannot go upside down, be too high, or too fast. Basically, I can ride just about everything at Walt Disney World (with the exception of Rock 'n' Roller Coaster.) At Cedar Point, I can ride Disaster Transport, Iron Dragon, and Cedar Creek Mine Ride.

 Technically, I can ride Expedition Everest, but I don't enjoy it. It's slightly too intense for me. My husband on the other hand, loves it.

What's your favorite flower?

 Peonies! I love them so much, we scheduled our wedding so they'd be in season.

Are you allergic to anything?

I'm not allergic to any foods that I know of, but I am allergic to the drug Azithromycin. Which just means I can't have Z-paks and have to take Amoxicillin.
