So there&#8217;s THAT.  But if I HAD a car?  I think I would feel weird about BLASTING &#8220;Hit me baby one more time&#8221;, by the newly married Ms. Spears, as I cruised through a crowded section of town.  But dammit, it&#8217;s a good song, and a huge guilty pleasure.  I play it often.<\/p>\n<p><b>Book I read flat so no one could see the title<\/b><br \/>\n<i><a href=\"http:\/\/www.amazon.com\/exec\/obidos\/ASIN\/068987474X\/qid=1105549976\/sr=2-1\/ref=pd_ka_b_2_1\/104-4227108-2539156\">He&#8217;s Just Not That Into You<\/a><\/i>.  The book that is sweeping the nation.  Or whatever it&#8217;s doing.  I mean, it&#8217;s not like I read it <i>repeatedly<\/i>.  I read it once.  And it was a very funny book, by the way, and reiterates many of the conversations I have had with my friends over the years, in terms of relationships.  &#8220;Uhm &#8230; maybe he&#8217;s just not interested in you??  Can we consider that option?&#8221;  But the book is bright pink, and &#8230; the title &#8230; I mean.  No.  I&#8217;m not reading that on the subway.<\/p>\n<p><b>Crappiest song ever sung at karaoke<\/b><br \/>\nI remember singing Alanis Morrissette&#8217;s shriek-fest &#8220;You Oughta Know&#8221; to GREAT success at a dingy karaoke bar on the north side of Chicago.<\/p>\n<p><b>Article of clothing I love though I know it&#8217;s wrong &#8211;<\/b><br \/>\nThis fishnet-type thing.  I will not elaborate further.<\/p>\n<p><b>What I order at the bar when no one is listening<\/b><br \/>\nI literally have no idea what this one means.  I drink what I want to drink, and I order it freely.  Is this not the case with other people?<\/p>\n<p><i>Update<\/i>:  This just occurred to me that this question is geared towards men, who might feel more silly than women when ordering a &#8220;peach-fizz margarita&#8221; or whatever.  I would feel no shame ordering a &#8220;sour apple martini&#8221; &#8211; but I can see why a guy might.  I&#8217;m not really a girlie-drink girl anyway, despite my &#8230; uhm &#8230; gender.  I like boy drinks.  Scotch.  Beer.  Whiskey.  You know.  Tough-guy stuff.<\/p>\n<p><b>Fast food item I adore<\/b><br \/>\nFirst off:  I do not eat fast food.  At least not anymore.<\/p>\n<p>But in my fast-food days (high school and college) I was all about McD&#8217;s Chicken McNuggets.  I so rarely have McDonalds anymore, because it makes me SICK to think of what I would be putting in my body &#8230; not to mention the fact that I do, actually, always feel sick after eating McDonalds &#8230; but damn.  I loved those McNuggets.<\/p>\n<p><b>A TV show that is a good example of the downfall of civilization that I love anyway <\/b><br \/>\nWell, I don&#8217;t have TV now.  But let&#8217;s see.  I pretty much love them all, and think the &#8220;downfall of civilization&#8221; types are big bummers.  I love love E! True Hollywood Story, and could watch it <i>all day<\/i>.  I loved <i>Survivor<\/i>.  I even got into <i>The Apprentice<\/i>.  Maybe some people think soap operas are the downfall of civilization?  Well, I have loved MANY a soap opera in my day.  I was a <i>General Hospital <\/i>gal in my early teens, and CRIED when my swimming lessons conflicted with the time-slot.  Yes, I CRIED.  (It was the advent of Blackie Parrish &#8211; ahem &#8211; JOHN STAMOS &#8211; who hooked me in, irrevocably, as a teenager.)
