You might be wondering, “So what the heck is this Monday Poll thing anyway?”
Well, it isn’t much of a poll. It’s more just a constantly evolving (devolving?), somewhat random list of questions I’ve been putting out to readers every Monday morning for the past six years. I’ve always enjoyed reading your answers in the comments, and I hope you enjoy reading mine.
- What are your favorite TV shows right now?
Golden Girls, of course (Dorothy has the best lines), Thirty Rock, Walking Dead, and this show I just started Netflix-ing called Parenthood. - What would you do if you won $10,000 today?
I’d buy Tabs a case of Apps (Fancy Feast Appetizers) and take El Hub out to dinner, and then just save the rest of it for a rainy day. - What’s the first song lyric that comes to mind?
I don’t care, I love it. (By Icona Pop.) - Do you have any scars?
Yes. I have a burn mark on my left wrist shaped like a dolphin that I got from frying lumpia in college. It’s mostly faded now…but you can still see it if you look closely. - What are some makeup or beauty products you buy over and over again?
Bobbi Brown Peach Corrector, MAC Face & Body Foundation (in C5), Skinceuticals CE Ferulic - What’s your favorite place to people-watch?
Union Square in San Francisco. - If you could time travel, what year would you visit (but you don’t have to be there permanently)?
I would go back to the early 2000s, just mostly so I could tell myself to stop fooling around so much and pursue a writing career sooner. - If you could pick any one person in history to have brunch with today, whom would you pick?
Oprah… I’m in the mood to talk with Oprah today. - Is there a makeup/hair styling skill you’d like to master?
Yeah, I’d like to get better at doing cut crease. - What movie really scared you?

It’s the nearest Sephora and MAC for me, so that’s where I go when I need to refuel my beauty habit and I’m always amazed at the people I see! Women wearing 5 inch heels and dress like they’re going clubbing! It’s amazing. I’m sure they’re horrified that I’m wearing yoga pants and flip flops! 🙂
7. If you could time travel, what year would you visit (but you don’t have to be there permanently)? 1976, the bicentennial, and the year depicted in “Dazed & Confused”. I love everything about that time – the music, the clothes, the whole climate of the country.

10. What movie really scared you? Paranormal Activity 3, and the cult classic Halloween, though it is still one of my favorite movies. Michael Myers never runs – he doesn’t have to chase you down, he’ll get you eventually. His mask terrifies me, too. I have always hated masks!

3. What’s the first song lyric that comes to mind?
You could have the money and the world; the angels and the pearls. (Shinedown, “I’ll Follow You”)
4. Do you have any scars?
LOL, physical or psychological? Too many to name. My favorite’s on the bridge of my nose, with a second on my hard palate and a lot of ossic scarring in between. When I was 18 months old, I tried to ride the family dachshund, and she bit me hard enough to permanently reshape my septum, a section of my sinus cavity, and the bridge of my nose. She was completely justified and got cooed over, while I got one in a lifelong line of, “Then you shouldn’t have done that!” XD I finally got sinus surgery when I was 28, and have since been able to breathe through my nose, which is the same shape it was when I was 18 months old. (I also have MAJOR epicanthic folds. You know the heavily pronounced ones babies sometimes have? Makes putting makeup on my inner corners a pain in the ass sometimes.)
5. What are some makeup or beauty products you buy over and over again?
SweetsNThings Handmade Facial Scrub (https://www.etsy.com/listing/79181247/handmade-facial-scrub-natural-soap-with?ref=shop_home_active). I adore this stuff. I only use it about twice a week, but people with less fragile skin can use it daily. (If I use a washcloth on a daily basis, my skin will break. When I say my skin is sensitive and fussy, I mean it.) Rhea’s other stuff is fabulous as well. I use her soap, shampoo, and conditioner at least 90% of the time, and her facial moisturizer at least once a day.
6. What’s your favorite place to people-watch?
I’m not a big people-watcher most of the time. I have Asperger’s, and being around too many people can do bad things. (Thank Elvis for chocolate-dipped frozen bananas. Focusing on them is how I survived getting through the crowds at the State Fair the other evening.) However, once in a while when the weather is comfortably cool and I feel healthy and stable enough to tolerate people, I’ll go to Downtown Tulsa, pay for all-day parking somewhere, walk around with my sun umbrella, and eventually find a nice, shady bench where I can watch people walk by while I read or make notes on my phone.
7. If you could time travel, what year would you visit (but you don’t have to be there permanently)?
1893 Chicago, the Columbian Exposition. Either that or I’d go back to ’84 and invest heavily in Apple and Microsoft.
8. If you could pick any one person in history to have brunch with today, whom would you pick?
I normally say Nikola Tesla, but today I think I’d like to hang out with my cousins, who ran a bicycle shop in Ohio around the turn of the 20th Century. They were inseparable, and so kind of count as one person. Also, they were HUGE dorks, and make me wonder if Asperger’s maybe runs in both sides of the family and not just Dad’s.
9. Is there a makeup/hair styling skill you’d like to master?
Cat-eye eyeliner. And putting on eyeshadow primer without getting it everywhere. Being able to bleach my own hair without going bald would be nice, too, but that’s never going to happen.
10. What movie really scared you?
The Changeling (1981, starring George C. Scott) is the best ghost story I’ve ever seen. It depends on atmosphere, and it delivers. Also, George C. Scott is George C. Scott. Hell, yeah.

Downtown London, Ontario…It’s a realllll freakshow!
