You are not wrong. I'd want to experience as much as I could...and then happily return to my own body.

okaaaaaaay subject change. :)

Would you rather be alone on an island with unlimited amenities or with someone and just the clothes on your back...for a week?
With someone. I'd get lonely otherwise

My question above.

Was going to agree on the "change" if you didn't.

Hhhhmmm thats tough. If I get to choose who is with me, then yes, one person with just our clothes on our back. It'll be tough! But I will make it!

Who would you choose to be stranded with for a week?

I have already chosen the person I want to be stranded with for a week. So long as it's a warm tropical island with no rain.
She knows who she is.

Could you spend months at a time talking to a volleyball with a face painted on it? ;)

I think I would go insane... no wait, I am insane! So yes. We would be best buds!

Do you want to know what I am thinking?

Yes, if I had to.

If your SO went missing for years and came back after being lost at sea...would you drop your everything/everyone and go back to the way it was?

I don't know for sure. We'd be very close for the rest of our lives, but if I had a new life I don't think I could.


Would you ever leave everything to start a new life?

I could not leave 'everything' so no.

Would you move to another country to start a new job?

despite what my ex did...I couldd never do that.....

Would you leave a current unhappy situation and go somewhere to be happy?

That's such a difficult question. It depends on the situation. Sometimes, you can turn a bad situation into something very good, with a little work. And that can be a lot easier than starting over again.

Also, my experience has been that the grass always seems greener, but each situation has it's own unique problems.

So, yes, in some cases, I sure would. Life is too short to be unhappy when you don't have to. But I'm careful in choosing when to use exit and when to use voice.

Do you have a favorite saying that you tell other people frequently?

to every nurse who complains about patient care... "That's the gig"

What is the most breathtaking sight you've ever encountered?

Wow...tough one.
The birth of my kids.
The sun rising over the valley from the tooth of time.
The northern lights from the deck of boat in lake huron.

those are some of top ones.

What winter Olympic sport is your favorite to watch?

I hate to admit it.. but I'm a secret Shaun White fan during olympic season. I'm just amazed at the guts it takes to be willing to fail as many times as it must take before you finally learn a new skill.

What professional service would you hire if money was no object?

Private nurse....hehe

Got money? Where would you love?
 
Watching a sunset in Maui

What does the sky look like where you are right now?

Grey blue, weak sun.

Nothing to be ashamed of!

Hmmm...I think a masseuse, every day, about 5pm...in my office.

Do you get "spa" treatments or massages or something like that regularly?
 
Not regularly. Once every other month or so.

What's the name of your favorite sex shop (on-line is okay)?
 
Watching a sunset in Maui

bright blue and sunny..
last night was the most amazing sky. It was dark and clear, filled with stars, little diamonds of moonlight sparkling on the snow

not crazy regularly.. but I do. Whenever I travel, I arrange a massage/facial. I get maintenance massages - they're covered by my health insurance and I find that the stress helps me to keep my health goals on track.

There are moments in each of our lives when we respond to a paradigm shift - describe one of yours

Well, I guess in a sense I caused my own recently. A position came up about two years ago. I didn't need to take it, and in many ways, it's surprising that I did. The position, while still "mostly" what I've always done, now has me dealing more with "the public" in ways that are both difficult and fun. I gave a talk yesterday to over 300 people, and another today to 35. Similar things. While I'm not new to public speaking by any stretch, the audience is very different. I'm learning to use less technical terms. Learning to write for people outside my profession. Learning marketing and personnel management and other administrative things. It's really something of a shift from the kind of esoteric stuff I have done for he last 20 years.
How am I responding. Sometimes I wonder "WTF were thinking?!?" Everything was good. I didn't need to do this. I liked my life before and this brings me certain hassles that I'm not comfortable with always.
Sometimes it's very exciting and good.
Overall though, what I realized about 6 or 7 years ago was that to stay happy, we need to find new challenges. To be "the new guy" again, and figure out how to do that. This was an opportunity to jump into that. And, overall, while sometimes it's been difficult (my scotch consumption has risen), I'm glad I did. Although today, I'm tired.

What do you do to find new challenges in life?
 
I am. I'm a nerd. I totally cool with it. :cool:

If you were going to design the "perfect mate" what would be key characteristics?

Patient
Kind
Cute (in my eyes)
The things that make him a little off.. need to jive with the things that make me a little off
oh.. and he needs to be able to tune me out while I'm babbling.. but still be able to pay attention so that I'm impressed with his uncanny attention to detail.

What is your most comfortable outfit?

Usually for me, about 3-5. I'm not always right, but usually I am.
People have told that I have an uncanny nack for knowing this.

What would your perfect valentine's day be like?
