Finish my sentence...

Wonderland

The Grand Canyon.

Tomorrow...........

ruthbru

I will be glad not to see anymore mean political ads for awhile!

The biggest prize I ever won was.....

badger

$100 on the lottery.

Ruth, forensics is the science of investigation.  You're thinking of medical forensics (CSI stuff) but there's also debate/speech forensics, forensic accounting, etc.

I'm not superstitious but ...

WellWater

I always pick up the penny on the ground for "good luck"

I have some major housecleaning to do but right now I'd much rather...................

gardengumby

lay on a beach somewhere warm

today is my day to....

Mini1

vote!

Tomorrow will be my day to...

ruthbru

see how all the candidates did (I teach, and we've looked at all the state and local races and measures along with the national races).

WellWater

(since Ruth forgot to leave a thought I'll go also with Mini.............)

...........to get my mammogram and bone density. 

Now that the election is over my fervent hope is that...................

ruthbru

both sides can actually come together and put the good of the country first....instead of their partisan interests.

An interesting state or local race where 'my' candidate won was.....

(in my district a 21 year old (republican) college student and 26 year old woman (democrat) beat out the 'old' guys for the state House. Deservedly so, as they campaigned like crazy. Very refreshing.)

gardengumby

The most interesting local races for me this year were the statewide initiatives:

We passed gay marriage, legalization of marijuana and charter schools.  Three firsts for this state.  (My neighbor who was running for county councilman failed, which surprised me.)

Because I stayed up late last night watching the election coverage.....

whaevah

I am dragging my butt around, looking at the treadmill like it is an enemy

I am looking forward to watching ....

gardengumby

anything but the news for at least the near future!

My next thing to be excited about is....

ruthbru

my extended family is getting together for Christmas (and NOT at my house ).

If I could look like one movie star, I would pick....because....

gardengumby

Elizabeth Taylor because she had beautiful eyes

My favorite actor is....

ruthbru

Johnny Depp

My favorite musical is.....

WellWater

(Ruth, gosh that's a hard one.....  The only movies I have ever bought are musicals so I can watch them again and again)

But since I have to pick just one I'll say Fiddler on the Roof with Teyve (who also starred in the movie version).  I was able to see the Broadway version 3x and have watched the movie numerous times.....hate like heck to be leaving out Camelot, The King and I, Sound of Music, Chicago, etc.

I had no idea that legalizing pot for recreational was on any ballots so I was surprised to see it was and that it had passed in CO and WA....my feeling on this is that it should..............

badger

raise a lot of tax revenue for those states. 

(I'm assuming sales tax from buyers and income tax from sellers?)

I'm not a "bad girl" but will admit that I ...

gardengumby

on occasion would love to slug someone.

The state I would most like to visit is....

WellWater

Alaska...again.  It has got to be one of the most ruggedly beautiful places on earth.

(badger:  Yes, it would be taxed and regulated....I think it's a grand idea and one that is long, long overdue)

The new movie coming out that I'm looking forward to seeing is................

badger

Life of Pi.  A good candidate for the big screen I think.

I got lucky recently and here's what happened ...

liv-

found a new onc and he gave me more chemo

what rocks my boat is........

badger

waves. 

The last time I was in a boat ...

I was with you, badger, in a tall sailing ship on Lake Michigan!

A scary boat experience I had was when....

ruthbru

I always overeat at Thanksgiving....mashed potatoes, gravy, stuffing, pie......yum

A food I eat just because it is good for me is.....

liv-

wild blue berries

a food i eat because it is good for me and i love it is....

WellWater

tomatoes.  I could eat them at every meal...raw, stewed, grilled...any manner of preparation.

A food I eat because I love it even though I know it's not that good for me is.............

ruthbru

hot roast beef sandwich with mashed potatoes and gravy (I eat this dish once a year when the craving overcomes me!)

The worst blind date I ever went on was....

WellWater

Early 70's....my roommate forced me into a blind date with her date's friend.  We were going to dinner but had to make a few stops first...we would pull up in front of bars and small stores, my date would jump out and run in for a few minutes...he would come out with a small paper bag or an envelope - he and his friend talked in "code".  It didn't take a brain surgeon to finally realize that he was some sort of bookie or collector.  I was terrified, mortified and really ticked off at my friend.  We finally got to the restaurant, her and I went into the bathroom - I said I wasn't going back to the table and she refused to go back alone so we climbed out of the bathroom window and never saw them again.  And his name was (honest to God) Vinnie! 

Another bad blind date was.......................
