ringsandcoffee1. If you had to participate in one Olympic event, what would it be and why?
Trampoline gymnastics. It's about as close to flying as a human can get.
2. What is the one song you always sing along to?
Killing Me Softly, Are You Gonna Be My Girl?, Friends in Low Places, Immigrant Song, Careless Whisper, Bohemian Rhapsody, anything by Journey, and so many more.
3. Do you wear a seatbelt in the car?
Yes. The only time I leave it off is when I am driving from one area of a parking lot to another. Fun fact: I remember when seatbelts became a law. Google says the law was enacted in 1986 in California, but it was somewhere around 82-83 that my parents started making us wear them.
4. Car, SUV or truck and why?
I've only had cars, which are fine. But I'm leaning towards an SUV for my next car, simply to be higher off the ground and not have my bumper hit all the curbs when I park.
5. Are you a good/bad driver? Explain.
I am a good driver in that my only accidents were in 2001, and 3 speeding tickets (one camera, one for not knowing I was back in Tucson city limits, and one was a speed trap (one of 3) coming down the mountain where the officer told me he was going after another person but somehow he got behind me). I am aware of other cars, don't tailgate, and I'm not a speed demon. I also work in auto insurance, so would prefer not to end up in the scenarios I hear about at work.
