Tomorrow's Tax Day. Have you done your taxes yet?
Happily, yes. And I've even received my refund already! It's a nice switch from last year, when I was an idiot and somehow told the IRS that I had 3 dependents (I have none). My economic stimulus paid my taxes last year, sadly.
How often do you do laundry? Do you have your own washer and dryer or do you have to leave your home?
I do laundry about once a week. I have a washer & dryer in my house, and I am *so* thankful I don't have to lug laundry around anymore!!
Openly keep, store away, or toss completely? What do you think should be done with past gifts from old flames after you've broken up and are with someone new?

Well, there's always this option - http://www.exboyfriendjewelry.com/.
Personally, I tend to simply store the stuff for a few years and then throw it out. Except jewelry. That I keep. But the people who broke into my house last summer took all of it, so now I don't have to worry about it anymore.
If you were forced to buy a new car today, what kind of car would you get?
A Mini Cooper. In fact, I've been saving for one for the last 2 years. Sadly, buying my house has taken part of that savings, but I'm still hoping to have one soon
Are you voting for the party that you're registered for?
Well, since I don't have to register for a party in my state.....no :) But I am not voting the party I was raised with. And that's all the politics you're going to get from me :)
What did you do for fun when you were a kid? How is it different from what you see kids doing now?
Submitted by jaklumen.
I was outside for most of my childhood. My sister and I explored the woods behind our house, making moss tea and really really bad potpourri out of the flowers and things that we found. We played house and camped out in the back yard. If it was warm and sunny, we were outside. If it was rainy, we read books and played board games and stuff...
Kids nowadays (how old am I!) don't seem to be outside as much.....at least not all of them. Seems like more kids play video games and stuff than play outside.
What is one thing you MUST do before you go to bed at night?
Brush my teeth. I literally have a hard time sleeping if I haven't brushed my teeth.
How many pair of shoes do you have? Out of those pairs, how many do you wear more than a few times a year?
Submitted by fightinggale.
*sigh* Honestly? I have 53 pairs of shoes. I wear about 90% of them more than a few times a year. The ones I rarely wear are things like my hiking boots and rafting sandals. Also, my tennis shoes. Mostly because I no longer live in a city with a lot of readily available outdoor sports. So I wear fun shoes more :)
What do you want to be famous for?
Submitted by bluemoon07.
I don't really want to be famous.....at least not the kind of famous I'm sure this means. I'd like to be known and respected in my field, and I think i'm on my way to that, so I'm pretty happy where I am
How are your Saturday nights different now than they were five years ago?
Let's see....five years ago I was still in graduate school, about half way through. I'm guessing my Saturday nights were spent doing homework, working, or hanging out with the guy I was dating then.
Now? Now most of my Saturday nights are spent out, as "wingman" to a friend of mine. Which is fun, if not a little tiring :)
