Monday Mission 2.34

Here's PromoGuy's Monday Mission 2.34:

1. What do you do to make things better when you feel sad and/or lonely?
I cuddle with Steven, pet Bella kitty, or talk to friends.

2. Are you a "touchy-feely" person? That is, do you like to touch people you don't know that well? And on the flipside of that, do you like being touched by someone you aren't close with?
I used to be much more "touchy-feely" but I'm not really that way anymore. It bugs me with most people, unless it's subtle things like touching my shoulder or arm.

3. Do you like to have "me" time, time to yourself to be alone and relax? Or do you prefer to just do your own thing with someone else in the room? When was the last "me" time you got and what did you do?
I like "me" time. It works out well that Steven plays poker every Thursday - I can use that time to catch up on Tivod stuff, read, play on the computer, whatever. Since the computer and the tv with the Tivo are in different rooms, Steven and I do have "me" time apart while together. I wouldn't like it, though, if he was gone all the time.

4. Generally speaking, how do you feel about the concept of marriage? Are you the marrying type? Do you think the act of getting married means something today or is it simply just "a piece of paper?"
I am the marrying type. I think it does mean something, but only if the relationship is worth-while. People that get married just to be married don't have anything sacared. I do think, however, that you don't have to be married to have a relationship that's based on love and trust.

5. That said, as many as 25 states have passed legislation regulating who they believe should be the "marrying type." What are your thoughts on the banning of same-sex marriages?
I think it's stupid to ban same-sex marriages. Letting people who are gay express their love in a ceremony doesn't hurt anyone. I know people claim that then people will marry anyone for things like health insurance benefits, but come on, be real. Why shouldn't they marry? I've never heard one convincing reason.

6. If there was one law you had the ability to create or change, what would it be?
I would let gay people adopt children (take that, Florida!).

7. What would you like someone visiting your Blog for the first time to know about you? Now is your chance!
I'm a slightly neurotic geeky girl who spends too much time on her computer and her blog. Being neurotic, though, makes for a good read.

BONUS: Can you hear them?
Yes, but that's why I take my medicine.
