Drift Away

1. Who or what bores you enough to mentally drift away? meetings that are not what they are supposed to be

2. How many members of your family not living with you do you see on during the holidays? all the locals

3. When spending time with family, how long after you arrive do you begin to feel "antsy" about being there too long? oh, after a couple of hours

4. Does your family more generally get along at a holiday gathering or are there generally arguments? we get along really well--we're usually very well-behaved

5. Are you ever embarrassed by your family around friends? no

6. Of the celebrities that died in 2011, who will you miss the most? can I say Steve Jobs?

7. When you watch a movie in a movie theater, do you like the theater filled to capacity, halfway full, or nearly empty? Does your answer change depending on the type of movie you're seeing or do you feel the same way regardless of the movie or genre? it definitely depends on the crowd--if it is a mature movie, I want a mature crowd, not a bunch of chatters... but I like it halfway full

8. What’s one really cool/useful/nice thing you purchased for yourself this year? coolest thing is definitely my iPad

9. Are you in the holiday spirit yet? sort of, but it's not full-blown yet
