sarahbarnes @SamanthaMarie I think I could eat 🍣 almost every day! 5y
Elma I'm a serious night 🦉 too. My husband and I always joke that I'm part vampire. 5y
sarahbarnes @Elma Too funny! I think that might apply to me as well. Hence the love of coffee.... 5y
Elma @sarahbarnes Same!☕ 5y
Freespirit I love Birkenstocks too. 5y

saresmoore I don‘t know how you‘ve stayed in the U.S. for so long! Get thee away from the current administration...and take me with you, please! 5y
merelybookish @LibrarianRyan @leahbergen Chuck E Cheese stands in for any place with multiple screens, machines, games, lights and sounds going all at the same time so...any sports bar, casino or "entertainment" zone. ? 5y
merelybookish @TrishB Couldn't survive without them! 5y
Kshakal #19 made me giggle!! 5y
merelybookish @saresmoore No kidding! We've been here almost 20 years. I need my eldest to finish high school and then I'm plotting my getaway! 5y
merelybookish @Trashcanman I hope it comes out soon! You're due some Ray's! ☀️💕 5y
LauraBeth My husband and I just admitted to our daughter that we had lied to her whenever she asked to go to Chuck E Cheese and we said it was closed for renovations 😬 5y
TrishB Agreed 👍🏻 5y
merelybookish @LauraBeth That's hilarious! And smart!! I guess you could make it up to her and take her to a Dave & Buster's. 😛 5y
merelybookish @ReadZenRites All terrible in different ways! 5y
LauraBeth @merelybookish we do take her to D&B now occasionally 😂 5y
merelybookish @LauraBeth At least you can drink there. And there's less screaming! 5y

sarahbarnes Becoming a therapist - so cool! 5y
merelybookish @sarahbarnes Oh thanks! It's a bit of a slog but I think will be worth it! 5y
readordierachel 11-18! 🙌🏽💕 5y
merelybookish @readordierachel So basically you live 80% of your life in your head too? 5y
readordierachel @merelybookish Isn't it exhausting? 😂 5y
readordierachel Also, what if you were at a PTA meeting in a Chuck E. Cheese that had an aviary?! 🙃 5y
merelybookish @readordierachel SO exhausting!! And I could probably deal with Chuck E Cheese and the PTA, but the aviary would do me in! 😆 5y
Cathythoughts Beautiful answers ♥️✨ 5y
RohitSawant Wonderful post! 💕 5y
Reggie Lolol @readordierachel I was thinking the same thing. Great post, @merelybookish!! 5y
merelybookish @Reggie Thanks Reggie! Chuck E Cheese and PTA meetings make me mad but being trapped in an enclosed space with birds freaks me out.🤪 5y
merelybookish @Reggie @readordierachel It's a pretty good set up for a horror story, if either of you want to write it. 😉 5y
merelybookish @Cathythoughts @rohit-sawant Thank you! 😘 5y
readinginthedark Fun! And yes, PTO meetings often seem pointless at my son's school. 😒 5y
merelybookish @readinginthedark I've been to some real doozies. And then I stopped going. 🙂 5y
Cathythoughts I see you are studying to be a therapist . I wish you well on that journey... I‘m winding down now. I remember learning it is the patient that heals the therapist , at an unconscious level( with the gift of their suffering). My girlfriends mean the world to me too 👍🏻♥️ 5y
merelybookish @Cathythoughts Thanks Cathy! That is a lovely way of framing it. It has really upped my knowledge of suffering and human resilience! I may have some questions for you some day. 🙂 5y

Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks @Avanders I didn't put introvert and love for reading!! I feel like those are a given 😘💕 can't sleep without my chapstick! Got to work the other day and couldn't find it!! 😩😩 almost went back home!! (edited) 7y

L_auren ♥️ I have to make my bed too! Love your list 7y
Avanders lol it's actually fascinating how many introverts are in the Litsyverse... and also makes perfect sense 😉 I know... at least several tubes of chapstick go with me everywhere! I have backups everywhere 😁😁 7y
kspenmoll Chapstick galore & always cold- me too! 😍 7y
MrsMalaprop Haha, me too for 4, 8 & 12 😊. Trying so hard to instill 4 in my boys. 7y
BookBabe "Scared of cats"?! ? Coale is beside himself! Lol 7y
Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks @Reagan-reads I'm to the point that my husband and I should sleep in other rooms!!! 7y
Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks @L_auren great!!!! I love you!!! 💕 7y
Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks @MrsMalaprop yay!!!! My girls don't like it:((( even though I read to them and they grew up watching me read every day!!! 7y
Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks @BookBabe I like looking at them and Coale is beautiful!!' I'm scared they will bite me with those sharp teeth and not let go!!! And I used to have this cat a few years ago that would hide under the bed and jump out and scare the crap out of me!!! 😵😩 7y
Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks @kspenmoll gotta have it!!!!! 7y
Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks @Avanders I really didn't know there were that many until now 💕💕 I was beginning to think it was just me!!! 7y
Hollie Chopstick or lipgloss is a must for me. I legitimately have 14 in my purse at this very minute! 7y
minkyb Number 12 made me LOL. My daughter is the same and we tease her all the time. 7y
Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks @Hollie I have replacements for the replacements!!! 7y
Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks @minkyb got to have it!!! I rarely wear lipstick but I have to have my chap stick!! 7y
Avanders Yeah ☺️💖💖☺️ I think that's part of introversion.. thinking you're alone in something 😉 I'm actually a social introvert which is very confusing for many people 😜 I am good in crowds (but don't like them) and tend to host a lot and coordinate social things a lot... but it is draining and I definitely reboot alone. Alone. Ahhh what a lovely word. 😉 7y
Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks @Avanders hmmm that sounds like me too... I'm ok in crowds just don't want to be there!!! 😑 7y
LazyLimaLife I have a mini-Schauzer named Bentley! ☺️ 7y

I love these little surveys, it's such fun to see everyone's responses!

1. Sydney, Australia 🇦🇺
2. I saw it mentioned on Facebook, so glad I did! I'm never on Facebook now!
3. Mystic River. Based on a Dennis Lehane book & starring Sean Penn, Kevin Bacon & Tim Robbins. Fantastic!
4. Yes I did as a child. I had a penny turtle which was the size of my palm & I had a Australian river turtle which I found injured at my local creek.
