The Person Below Me...
Absolutely not!TPBM has visited Canada?
AHA! I read all this wrong and thought you were offended, Chloe, because Laurel absolutely didn't want to visit the UK. Jeez, I should really open my eyes a bit better. -_-TPBM falls asleep while reading.
Chloe, the post I responded to, or so I thought was about whether people should call 911 if their sandwich was not made properly in a restaurant, plus a couple of other examples. That is why I said absolutely not. I would love to visit the UK. This is the first time I joined in this, so do not know what happened. My apologies.
Don't sweat it Lauren. We often have more than one person answering at the same time!Falls asleep reading-all the time if I'm reading in bed.
TPBM was alive to watch the Challenger tragedy?
Sadly, yes...was watching it live with my son, who was six at the time. It was horrific! TPBM enjoy hockey?
(LaureL EL. Sorry!)I've never given hockey a chance.
TPBM likes roller derby? (or, even knows that it still exists?)
I don't mind roller derby. There was a team "The Oly Rollers" were I used to live. TPBM eats ketchup on their scrambled eggs.
That' s ok! I do know that roller derby still exists, but I only tried roller skating once, and it was a disaster! I was sore for days. No roller derby for me.
TPBM ice cream or no ice cream on top of your apple pie?
Don't eat much apple pie, but I usually have it with custard... Haha, whoops sorry Laurel! Would have been joking anyway :) Hope it didn't out you off joining in again! (PS, being offended that you would want to visit my country comes second on the list, I though you had insulted my fandom. That is serious business.)
TPBM was upset when MCR broke up
MCR? So, no? TPBM likes Ginger Snaps?
(Laurel, I meant watching the sport of Roller Derby, not actually skating it! Kudos to anyone who has tried it!! I skated for just over 5 years for two different leagues. As famzingly fun as it is, it is a difficult activity!)
Yes.TPBM. Is the new royal baby a boy or a girl?

Yup, when I am with my grandchildren.TPBM beer or wine?
Drinking a porter right now, but I am trying to grow up and get into wine. Wine feels grown up to me. Weird?TPBM watches commercials or skips past them (if applicable).

YES. As evidenced by my wet shirt front right now.If you hate to cry in a book, do NOT read Firefly Lane
TPBM keeps a box of tissues nearby when anticipating a cry (book, movie...) or just uses shirt collar/sleeves to catch the tears?
