Friday Fiver

1. Do you play cards?
Not really anymore. When I was in college, though, cards were an obsession. Well, just one card game: Euchre (pronounced yoo-ker). Nobody in California has ever heard of it, but it's a national sport in Michigan. It's a 4 player game so unfortunately I can't just play it with Kevin. Plus you need at least 2 participants who know what's going on, so you can't just teach 3 people and go for it. So, alas, until I get together with my college friends, no Euchre for me.

2. Do you have any rings on your hands?
I do. I have my wedding set on the traditional ring finger of the left hand. The other hand cycles through rings but right now I have a tanzanite on my right middle finger and a pearl ring that Kevin gave me as a combination birthday (pearl is my birthstone)/promise ring on my right ring finger.

3. Would you describe yourself as innocent?
Unless you've got DNA evidence otherwise, I'm definitely innocent.

4. What do you think of chivalry?
I really like it. I don't see it as disrespectful or a put-down, I see it as politeness and thoughtfulness. Actually I get pretty pissed at the women who get all offended and say "I can open my own damn door!" Look lady, he's trying to do something nice for you. If you object, then just say so tactfully and politely. And then they complain that there are no more "nice guys" available. Give me a break.

5. Have you seen The Thomas Crown Affair?
No, why? Have you lost it?

Not really -- but Shelby taught me this cool game once called "F*** Your Buddy."

Yes, my wedding set (Brad don't forget my 5-year upgrade in coming up.)

3. Would you describe yourself as innocent?
Depends on the crime.

4. What do you think of chivalry?
I LOVE it -- I'm old fashioned, I suppose.

5. Have you seen The Thomas Crown Affair?
Yes, Pierce Bronson and Rene Russo (remember her see-through dress???)
