Hesitant, Hopeful

I love meme's!!  I was tagged for this one by both Jodi and Shannon, and they were tagged by their friend Sarah.  My tags will be at the end of the post, but I don't know that there'll be five since some of the people I'd have tagged beat me to it and tagged me.  Also, this should be interesting because many of my friends are... um... areligious, shall we say.  So, here goes!

The rules:

1. Copy and Paste the rules of the game at the beginning.
2. Each player answers the questions about themselves.
3. At the end of the post, the player then tags five people and posts their names, then goes to their blogs and leaves them a comment, letting them know they’ve been tagged and asking them to read the player’s blog.
4. Let the person who tagged you know when you’ve posted your answer.

Note: Please keep this link in your rules so the original poster can see how far the Meme goes.

- What is your favorite word? Oh-for-fuck-sake. I know, it's technically four words, but I run them all together like that, so it counts!
- What is your least favorite word? Whatever.  I hate, hate, hate, hate to hear "whatever."  Matt and I have a rule about not saying it to one another, but it slips out from time to time.
- What turns you on creatively, spiritually or emotionally? Rest and Reading.  I need a certain amount of R&R to function and when I don't get it, I turn into a crazy bitch.
- What turns you off? Stupidity & willful ignorance.  I have no tolerance for people who willingly turn their backs on understanding.
- What is your favorite curse word? Fuck.  Yes, I say it.  I say it a lot.  I try not to say it on the phone and hardly ever say it in emails, but I say it in person a heck of a lot.
- What sound or noise do you love? The kettle whistling.  I heat water for tea in the kettle and I love the way it sounds when it's ready!  I'm like Pavlov's dogs, when the kettle whistles, I start salivating for my Blueberry tea!
- What sound or noise do you hate? Dogs barking & the telephone ringing.  I hate barking, it drives me up a wall.  That includes Ani's barking, by the way.  Barking just reminds me that I'm afraid of dogs (yes, true story) and cranks up my anxiety.  The phone usually means phone solicitors, bah!
- What profession other than your own would you like to attempt? Web designer/graphic artist.  I would love to have some mad CSS-fu!  Unfortunately, I have to settle for the creative genius of others to make my site look awesome.  My expertise stops at being able to tweek little things here and there, and usually not without tutorials of some sort.
- What profession would you not like to do? Airline Attendant.  Flying makes me both anxious and feel like I'm dying.  Motion sickness + vertigo + fear of crashing = taking the train!
- If Heaven exists, what would you like to hear God say when you arrive at the Pearly Gates? "Stop looking so confused, you're in the right place!"  Ha!  Okay, I considered skipping this question, honestly.  I'm not terribly comfortable with it.

Phoena, Mayren, Shawn, Kristine, & Christine.

Okay, there you have it.  I even came up with five, although Kristine isn't a blogger unless Facebook counts.  It's been forever since I was tagged for a meme and I so love them!
