2 I have six cats (five are brothers) and two dogs
3 Only child
4 Havent been on a date in a few years (I’m ok with that)
5 Somewhat emotionally crippled, I function fine and everything but there’s a little trouble when it comes to a SO
6 I’ve always said my dream date would be a vet
7 and I just happen to have a huge crush on my vet
8 I dabble in photography and have been published (once on the cover)
9 I love old movies and have the entire Astaire/Rogers dvd collection
10 My favorite actress is Barbara Stanwyck (whos real name was Ruby Stevens, which I love)
11 I’ve been to the UK and Ireland and loved it, would move back in a second
12 I really want to be a vet tech and have been thinking about it a lot lately
13 Cant bear the idea of being in debt (the reason I’m not currently in school to be a vet tech)
14 I have a tattoo on my right shoulder blade of my first cats face all done in black/greys (it really does look like her)
15 I love to read. Patricia McKillip is my favorite author (I found a signed book in a second hand store for a few dollars!!)
16 I love Disney movies
17 I’ve been mistaken for a lesbian because I go places with my mom and we don’t look anything alike (sigh)
18 I’m as loyal as they come, but I don’t put up with being treated badly by anyone
19 the only person I really feel any attachment to in my family is my mom
20 I’ve got a sarcastic sense of humor
21 and not a scrap of self esteem
22 I don’t drink, do drugs, or smoke and never have
23 I’m an animal person, not a kid person
24 I’ve never broken a bone, had surgery, and havent been to the doctor in 10+ years
25 Im terrible at flirting, and responding to flirting
26 I’m not a girly girl, I like jeans and a tshirt, wont spend more than five minutes on my hair and only wear a tiny bit of makeup
27 I like doing nice little simple things for people, like I sent a copy of Tolstoy to a friend who had never read anything by him
28 I don’t have a lot of friends (especially not my age) because I don’t feel that I fit in at all with the way people think these days
29 I think every single person in the world should see “Meet John Doe” (with Gary Cooper) because it has a fantastic message
30 I don’t have a great memory, and seem to only remember the low points instead of all the great things in my life
31 I don’t have a faith, and I believe that the saying (roughly) “If you don’t have faith you don’t have hope”
32 I’ve never been anywhere that really felt like home (somewhere where I felt like I could spend the rest of my life)
33 Brown hair, brown eyes, 5ft7in
34 I can never remember if the ‘ means feet or inches
35 I’d love to start running
36 but sometimes I forget to breathe when Im walking so running could be an issue..
37 I’m fairly quiet and reserved
38 I love to travel and hope to see Europe
39 I moved from Washington state to Maine just over a year ago…just because.
40 I’ve never been in a car accident
41 Never been in love
42 I don’t bend to peer pressure
43 I listen to classic rock and classical, sometimes oldies
44 Im meeting a friend and I really should be getting ready now (ek!)
45 I raised and trained a horse a few years ago
46 Im a worrier, I worry about just about everything
47 I have a splitting headache and it’s been lingering for two days now
48 I don’t like feet and the world would be a happier place if everyone always wore socks
49 I consider myself to be fairly boring and for my most part am ok with that
50 I talk to myself sometimes because when I say things out loud its easier for me to remember them

I love these!!

1. I always rent movies and then don't watch them.

2. I can never return things on time, even when I worked at a video store, I rang up over $200 in late fees (we weren't allowed to delete them, I thought they would know if I did)

3. I have ADD and have discovered it is NOT conducive to a job where I have a lot of freedom (I spend a lot of time on the internet!)

4. I have two younger brothers and one younger sister

5. I haven't seen my mom in almost two years, I don't ever want to see her again.

6. My first nephew was born in February.

27. I love kalamata olives.

28. I love sushi, so much. I could eat it every day.

29. I love seared tuna with black sesame seeds sliced on greens with a dressing of olive oil, soy sauce and rice wine vinegar...

30...and now I'm hungry.

31. I love trying new cocktails, I have so much liquor in my liquor cabinet, but I don't really drink that much.

32. I haven't seen The Bodyguard, but an episode of 30 Rock I just watched made me want to see it.

33. Growing up, both sides of my family (other than my parents) lived really far away so I didn't know them and that makes me sad.

34. When one of my little brothers was little he watched Blue Clues and I would sing the mail time song with him, and now I haven't seen that show in ten years, but when I get the mail for my work I sing the mail song in my head. Every time.

35. I love going to Target, and I'll go there for no reason.

All right, all right. You roped me in.

1. I love animals much more than I love people.
2. I have only fallen in love twice and fallen out of love once.
3. I am very computer-savvy because I donâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]t like not knowing how to do things.
4. I am an elite PokÃ[emoji]169[/emoji]mon trainer.
5. I think I would be a top-notch housewife.
6. It is okay for me to make black jokes, but not okay for you to do it. I donâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]t know why, Iâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]m just touchy about it.
7. If I donâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]t write something down in my planner, it will not get done, I promise you.
8. My purple Sigg water bottle travels with me everywhere.
9. I thought I was a morning person until I met D. He is a daybreak person.
10. I never dreamed up my wedding when I was a little girl.
11. BUT, if I have a wedding, I want a bluegrass band at my reception.
12. I like the social element of drinking alcohol, but I kind of hate the after-effects and wish I didnâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]t drink at all.
13. I have a love/hate relationship with my hair. I think itâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]s gorgeous, but it wonâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]t be tamed. I still havenâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]t found the perfect way to style it.
14. I have a deep interest in the occult. I have two decks of tarot cards and innumerable books on the zodiac, and I read palms and consult the I Ching. However, I do not believe in horoscopes.
15. Even though she is very protective of me (Iâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]m an adult!), I love my mom so ridiculously much. I miss her and wish I got to see her more. She is my best friend.
16. I am a neat freak. I hate clutter and disorder to any degree.
17. Anything anyone says, writes, or posts on the internet is subject to my linguistic analyses.
18. I think my little brother is one of the most underrated, outstanding people on Earth.
19. I will only write in blue ink.
20. When I was little, I didnâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]t have an imaginary friend, but I wanted one.
21. If I donâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]t like the way Iâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]ve set up my notes in class, or if I make too many mistakes, I will tear out the offending notebook page and copy it down on a new one.
22. My favorite place in America is Brooklyn, NY. I've never been there.
23. I hate carrots.
24. I have turned off a movie because I couldnâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]t stand listening to a poorly imitated British accent.
25. I have met my last three boyfriends on the internet.
26. I hate it when my toes touch each other.
27. I never read instruction manuals.
28. I can crack most of the joints in my body, including my sternum.
29. I have been vegetarian for 2 years.
30. My favorite type of food is Indian.
31. I practice yoga and Buddhism but have been slacking on both lately.
32. I am scared for when my cat dies.
33. I draw hearts starting with the left side first.
34. I love red wine.
35. I don't drink coffee, soda, or energy drinks, just tea.
36. I am trying to be better about taking more pictures. I want my kids to see what my life was like.
37. I am absolutely terrified, beyond reason, of spiders.
38. I rarely lose my cool, but when I do, you don't want to be around.
39. I just learned how to play chess this month.
40. I love video games. I'm not very good, though. My favorite is Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time.
41. I don't say 'bless you' when people sneeze.
42. I spend too much money on my cat. I don't think she really gives a crap, either.
43. I have two stuffed cats. One is named Puppy, and one is named Deedee.
44. I think I'm going to join a soccer league in May.
45. I am obsessed with HGTV. My boyfriend is hooked now too. We love House Hunters!
46. My current boyfriend is my best friend, and I love him more than I can explain. He's "the one".

47. I seem cynical, but I am a hopeless romantic.
48. I hate waking up to an alarm clock. It's frightening.
49. My iPod has the best shuffle mix EVER.
50. I went on a date with someone 13 years my senior once.

OK here goes nothing...

1. My real name is Justin but since 3rd grade everyone knows me as J.R. (my initials). Some of my closest friends don't even know my real name.

2. I'm well over 6 feet tall. My driver's license says I'm 6'6" but I think I'm a bit taller than that.

3. Aside from cats, music is my life. I currently play 6 instruments and I sing a bit as well.

4. I started taking piano lessons before I could run. I took lessons for 9 years (age 3 to 12)

5. When I was 6 I played Für Elise in a piano competition and won first place.

6. Over the past few years I've taught myself guitar, drums, and saxophone.

7. I used to be quite fond of the drink. I was hospitalized once because of it.

8. I still drink socially but nothing like I used to.

9. In grade 4 I invented a form of non-alcoholic rum. It looks, tastes, and smells exactly like rum.

10. I'm somewhat of a computer geek. I love working with computers but there's still a lot I don't know about them.

11. I love animation and CGI from the mid 1990's. Most of the animation on today is just terrible.

12. I have all seasons of Dragon Ball Z, Bleach, ReBoot, and Beast Wars on DVD.

13. I also love the dramas and things like that on in the 1990's. I have all seasons of Buffy the Vampire Slayer on DVD.

14. Cars are another passion of mine. My uncle is a mechanic and has taught me everything he knows, which is quite a bit.

15. He actually got kicked out of university because he out-smarted one of his professors and made him look like an idiot.

16. I love to drive. I have no problem driving in snow or rain or anything.

17. 2 days after I got my license, I was driving a 5-tonne truck.

18. Currently the only vehicles I can't legally drive are emergency vehicles, an airplane, and a submarine.

19. I'm a gamer. I have 3 computers, a Wii, XBox 360, Dreamcast, Sega Saturn, the original Sega console, and I'm 1 of only 4 people I know who has an original NES.

20. I love strategy games and RPG's.

21. I go to the gym religiously.

22. I use free weights mostly.

23. My max bench press is currently 425 pounds.

24. In the summer one of my favorite things to do is ride my bike (bicycle not motorcycle).

25. The farthest I've gone with it is to Calgary, Alberta (about 754 Km or 469 miles)

26. I hope to take it to the west coast of BC (about 1724 Km or 1071 miles).

27. As some of you may know, my favorite band of all time is Dream Theater.

28. I have seen over 50 music concerts but I've only seen Dream Theater once.

29. I don't have a favorite genre of music but I'm not a fan of rap, hip hop, or country music.

30. I like to travel.

31. In September, my cousin is getting married in New Zealand and I'm planning on going even though me and maybe 10 other people in my family will be able to/want to make the trip.

32. I've been almost everywhere in Canada but I've only been to 5 states.

33. I've never been anywhere in South America, Europe, or Africa.

34. My brother is currently teaching English in Beijing, China.

35. I've been to Beijing twice to see him.

36. I used to read a lot. I still do now just not as much.

37. My favorite authors are Stephen King, Michael Crichton, and Robert Ludlum.

38. If you can't tell from those authors, I like mystery, suspense and horror novels.

39. My favorite TV shows are Simpsons, Futurama, Family Guy, House, and CSI.

40. My favorite sports to watch are football and hockey.

41. My favorite sports to play are football, basketball, ultimate Frisbee, and curling.

42. In my first year of competitive curling in high school me and my team got a bronze medal. I've been doing it ever since.

43. In 2003, my cousin was a world junior champion in curling.

44. I have 3 cats: Eric, Marie, and Meezers.

45. Eric and Marie are litter mates and when I got them they looked so cute together that I couldn't break them up so I took both.

46. They were named after my grandfather's cats. He had 2 cats that looked a lot like my 2 black and white cats and he names his Eric and Marie.

47. When he died, nobody in the family knew how to care for cats and nobody seemed interested in taking them so we took them to the humane society.

48. Meezers just appeared in my neighbourhood one day and never really left. I tried to find who he may belong to but after a few weeks with no one claiming him, I took him in.

49. I hope to get more cats and eventually adopt a cougar.

50. I'm currently in University to become a Vet.
