(I thought this one was kind of dumb)

The question was:

Did you color as a child, and if so, did you stay in the lines........

Yeah, I colored alright, anything that would sit still long enough. Even tried to color the dog once. I never stayed inside the lines; I'd go just a tad outside the lines (sort of make the lines bolder) and then fill it in.

I STILL color outside the lines.
Quit trying to color the dog, though.

Ahhh I did colour but I could never stay in between the lines - it got so bad that my mother threatened to give all my colouring books to my neighbour who was soooo tidy. I guess that probably traumatised me into doing so!

My bedroom however was a complete mess!
The part about the messy bedroom is still true today.

Yes I colored but only when there were other kids around, I would much rather be playing with dolls or listening to the record player. Whether I would color in the lines would depend greatly on who I would color with which my mother never understood, I just didn't want some of the younger kids to feel bad when I stayed in the lines when they hadn't figured out who to yet.

Ugh. My first grade teacher told my mother I needed practice coloring in the lines. So she bought me this Mary Poppins coloring book with teeny tiny spaces. I hated it. But, hmm, a good movie suggestion for an upcoming Movie Nightâ„¢!

same here! A guy I do some contract work actually commented on this to me the other day... he mentioned how anal retentive I was and how it shows in my work...
I hope that was a good thing as i took it as a compliment
