I may not have gone where I intended to go, but I think I have ended up where I needed to be

from Ask me these 
 
51. Would you rather visit the past or the future?
   the only reason I'd visit the future would be to cement some financial wizardry. Visiting the past would be emotionally difficult but rewarding, knowing what I know now. I would give almost anything for one more day.
yep, this is me
52. Favorite clothing store?
 
  most of my work clothes came from Eddie Bauer or the Van Heusen outlet
53. What is the best advice you can give to those who are feeling down?
  I'm not the one to ask.
55. What angers you the most?
  mistreatment of a person I love
56. When was the last time you got majorly angry?
   sometime this summer
58. Are you good at lying?
   not at lying per se, but at omission and taking full advantage of the gray—yes. Blame my vocation and my vocabulary as much as my ethics.
59. What foreign language would you like to learn?
   I'd like to be better with Spanish
60. How many languages can you speak and what are they?
   just the one
62. What books do you plan to read this year?
  I read around 100 in 2020, which was a challenge because I couldn't borrow from the library for such a long period. I will probably dial that back to 75 for 2021. As for which ones: that remains to be seen.
63. Do you have breakfast every morning?
   yup
64. Tell us a secret: 
  no
65. How many concerts have you been to?
   a handful
66. Last hug?
   Tuesday the 29th
67. Who knows you better than anyone else?
   D
bubbles
68. Baths or showers?
   each has its place. I take more frequent showers but probably enjoy baths more.
69. Do you think you're ambitious?
   no
70. What song is stuck in your head?  
    "Lay My Love" by Brian Eno & John Cale
71. Countries you've visited?
       just the one
72. What do you most value in your friends?
   listening, sometimes in silence. Being needed.
73. What helps you to sleep better?
  exercise before bed.
74. What is the most money you have ever held in your hand?
   several thousand? Not sure.
75. What makes you nervous?
   the cop
