Friday/Saturday questions

Frankenstien and Lady Gaga protest the Super Bowl half-time show

1) If a movie was filming in your hometown and needed people to be extras, would you try out for a part? 
If the auditions were on my day off from work, I might consider it, but I wouldn't be really crazy about trying out for one

2) Today (Oct. 28) is Frankenstein Day celebrating author Mary Wollenstonecraft Shelley's birthday and all things Frankenstein. Who do you think is the scariest Halloween character?
This creepy "Saw" movie character totally freaks me out

3) "Occupy Together" protests, which began as "Occupy Wall Street" protests in New York City back in September, have spread to over 600 towns in the United States and have even started across the globe. Have you ever participated in a protest of any sort?
Not a real protest. I've silently protested all sorts of things by boycotting certain products or companies

4) Did you ever egg someone's house or vehicle or toilet-paper a home as a prank on Halloween (or any other day of the year, if not on Halloween)?
Surprisingly I've never done anything like that. Most people I know would expect me to have vandalized things when I was younger

5) How old is too old to go trick-or-treating?
I stopped trick-or-treating around the age of 11. I never really cared much for it. I did, however, do it once while I was in college to make my roommate happy. She wanted to, so I went with her. I was dressed as a prostitute cat. Yep, a prostitute cat

6)  The fourth installment of the "Twilight" movie series ("Breaking Dawn Part I") will be released in theaters soon. Movie theaters started selling advance tickets for midnight showings months ago. Have you ever attended a midnight premiere showing of a movie?
I have no desire to fight the crowds at midnight showings. I'd rather go to a movie a few weeks after its opening when the theater is almost empty

7) How soon before Christmas is too soon to put up holiday decorations on your home or business?
I saw a house the other day with Christmas lights on it. I couldn't believe the person put them up before Halloween. My family always waited until after Thanksgiving

8) Saturday is National Prescription Drug Take Back Day on which agencies across the U.S. will provide a venue for people who want to dispose of unwanted, expired, and/or unused prescription drugs. What do you normally do with left-over medications?
They stay in the bottles in a cabinet for a long long time after their expiration dates and then I just trash them. I know I shouldn't but I do it. I should start disposing of them through one of these events

9) Madonna has been announced as the half-time entertainment for the upcoming Super Bowl game, reportedly beating out Lady Gaga. Would you prefer to see Madonna or Lady Gaga (or would you rather not see either of them)?
I don't care to see either of them. I don't understand why they'd go for Madonna or Lady Gaga. They're not exactly the musicians that I think the Super Bowl's target audience is. Most men I know wouldn't care to see either of them perform, and even the women I know who watch the game just for the commercials also wouldn't care

Saturday 9: Mr. Roboto

1. Do you enjoy holidays like Halloween or is your approach more robotic?
I hate all holidays. People make too much of an issue out of holidays. They're just random regular days to me

2. Have you ever been to a haunted house?
A long long time ago. I don't like being scared for "fun." I had enough of being scared during my marriage. If you're married to a psycho for a while who tries to kill you multiple times, getting scared on purpose loses its appeal

3. What are you doing for Halloween this year?
Hopefully I'll be at work

4. What was your lamest Halloween costume ever?
One of the years that my parents forced me to go trick-or-treating, I was a female superhero. It was just a generic superhero. They were too cheap to even buy a SuperGirl or BatGirl costume. I was an unbranded hero that didn't really exist

5. Is handing out candy fun for you, or more of a nightmare?
Nightmare. I'd rather hide from the kids and eat the candy myself

6. Do you buy trick-or-treat candy and end up eating it yourself?
See #5's answer

7. Did you carve any pumpkins this year?
Nope. I never did. The closest I came to it was trying to give my fiance some ideas for the one he had to carve for his office. He didn't use my ideas. LOL

8. What was your favorite costume as a child?
 "Girl who doesn't give a shit" ... I still wear that costume every day

9. What is your biggest pet peeve about trick-or-treaters?
The doorbell ringing gets pretty damn annoying

The Friday 56

Rules:
*Grab a book, any book.
*Turn to page 56.
*Find any sentence that grabs you.
*Post it.

I just started reading "The Vampire Diaries: The Hunters Volume I Phantom." Page 56 was a boring page. This is the most interesting sentence on the page:

"I couldn't exactly ask her what she remembered, but she didn't say anything about being dead or vampires or anything."
