Sharpest Crayon in the Box?

RED = Anger
Are you currently mad at someone? No.
Which of your family members has the worst temper? I'm not sure I could single one person out, we've all been known to instigate a rumble or two . . .
Have you ever thrown something at anyone? Probably, when I was a kid. But seriously, who hasn't? What? Just me?
Does your face turn red when you’re angry? Oh yeah. Once, when I was a kid, I had to have a wart removed. The pain was enough to send me into a spiral of equisite pissed off-ness. I emerged from the doctor's office ready to take my mom out for making me endure the experience. Kaylin, on the other hand, also had the same procedure done after me and was white as a sheet and subsequently passed out from the pain. I think that's a pretty strong indicator at who is the calmer of the two. Maybe I should amend the aforementioned question about who has the worst temper.
When you’re mad, do you prefer to stare angrily or yell? I tend to get really silent. I'm not trying to freeze people out but a lot of times when people make me angry I feel like my feelings are unjustified so I am constantly wrangling with overcoming the anger and hurt. I don't necessarily recommend it. Sometimes you should just get mad.

ORANGE = Excitement
Has anyone ever thrown a surprise party for you? No. Parties in my honor tend to make me kind of embarrassed. But it's definitely a nice idea.
Do you get easily excited? Oh, yeah. It's kind of embarrassing. It's usually really stupid stuff, too. Like the other day, I saw a field of purple flowers (crocuses, maybe?) on our way to the gym. It's been snowing all week and something about a little stretch of flowers just totally lit me up.
What’s something that you’re most excited about? Shadowboxing! I swear, that class has become my new obsession.
If you won a million dollars, what would be your first thought? Oh, geez, probably a family vacation somewhere really exciting, like Ohio.
If you could have anything right now, what would it be? To not fall asleep while I'm trying to read. Seriously, I'd give anything for that.

YELLOW = Self Discovery
Name: Mel to the P
Birthday: August 15
What’s your main goal in life? That's a tough one . . . I think to never become complacent. Complacency is generally the trigger to letting yourself go--personally, professionally, spiritually, emotionally. I think I'm a better person for constantly striving to accomplish new things, even if I don't accomplish them. Hey, it's the journey, right?
Do you want to have children? Yeah. But sometimes there are days I'm more okay with not having kids than others.
When do you want to die? When I've become a burden on the people I love.

GREEN = Opinions
Are you against gay marriage? Yes, but I really struggle with the decision. In some ways, it just doesn't seem fair, you know?
Lower the drinking age? Hell no! Are you kidding me? High school kids are crazy enough just trying to sneak alcohol, can you imagine if we just gave it to them practically for free?

BLUE = Love
Do you love someone? Romantically? No. But that doesn't mean I don't have many people in my life that I love.
Do you believe in love at first sight? No. I don't think real love comes from a mere glance.

PURPLE = Q & A
Q: How many beds did you lay in today? What do you say to that? Wouldn't it make you sound like the biggest skank if you said more than one?
Q:What color shirt are you wearing? Green
Q:Name one thing that you do every day. Read and think about more things to read.
Q:How much cash do you have on you right now? Meh. None. Cash is toxic for me.
Q:Look to your left. What’s there? A big mess on my desk where things are starting to pile up. I did just get a new cell phone for a work project. I hope it doesn't become a burden . . .
Q:What’s the last piece of clothing you borrowed? A hoodie from Kaylin. I kind of need to put that away.
Q:What website(s) do you visit most during the day? Oh, man: People, US Magazine, Entertainment Weekly, Fox News, CNN. I've got to stay up on my current events, you know?
Q:Do you have plants in your room? No, but I wish I did. I love plants.
Q:Does anything hurt on your body right now? My knee, a little.
Q:What city was your last taxicab ride in? Salt Lake. Long story. What a waste.
Q:Do you own a picture phone? Yes, but I think they're ridiculous. They take crappy pictures.
Q:Recent time you were really upset? Um . . . read 2 blog posts ago. I'm better now, by the way. It's amazing what writing can do to get rid of bad feelings.

PINK = Last
Person you saw: Some random co-workers. I don't know.
Movie watched in cinema: Confessions of a Shopaholic. Kinda cute.
Song you just listened to? Can't remember
Person you talked on the phone with: Jim. He's on one of my new projects.

GREY = Today
What are you doing right now? Supposedly working.
What are you doing tonight? Shadowboxing, baby! And I should fold some laundry.
What are you going to eat? I don't know. I'm sure something gloriously healthy.

BROWN = Tomorrow
Is: Friday
Goal: Attend the temple, I'm long overdue. Get to work at 7:30 a.m. so I can leave work early.
Are you going to laugh? Um, hello! Yeah, I'm going to laugh. I laugh at commercials for Flintstone chewables. That's just how I roll . . . .

Angela Richards and I surprised you by decorated your room when you made cheerleader one year but I guess that's not technically a surprise party. We did end up having a sleepover though.

Oh, and I got excited over solar power today so getting excited over flowers seems so much cooler!
