everybody's weird. We should all celebrate our individuality and not be embarrassed or ashamed of it

1 Have you ever lied to your best friend? 

    that depends on the definition of the word "lied" 

 

3 What was your worst birthday? 

    34. I was married but planning to separate shortly, and that decision weighed heavily on me. Every moment between making the plan and executing it was a torment, knowing that my silence meant I was lying, but not yet ready to tell the truth.   

 

5 What’s the most embarrassing music you listen to? 

    I truly do not understand this question. Why are people embarrassed by what they like? And why do they like things that [they know and acknowledge] will embarrass them?  

    A house on my walking route in the next valley is inhabited by a guy who seems to love music (loud) and singing (louder). A few days ago, I was treated (?) to a mini-concert, wherein he blared, and tunelessly screamed along to, Don McLean's "American Pie". THAT is embarrassing music. (The guy, not the song!)

 

6 What’s your most bizarre habit? 

    again, this question doesn't make sense to me. Why would I have a habit that I would characterize as "bizarre"? If I actually felt that way about something that I do, I would endeavor to desist, to just choose to do something else or to get help if I really need it to stop.

 

7 Which family member knows you the best? 

    mom 

8 Have you ever practiced kissing in a mirror? 

    that's the equivalent of practicing skipping on one foot—it just doesn't work that way. (And no, I have not.)
