Seriously though, when was the last time you did something you instantly regretted?
I woke up, found myself in a makeshift prison cell (which i later learnt was an abandoned animal enclosure), and instantly regretted opening my eyes.

(For the first in forever....Aargh! Deric why did you get this song stuck in my head?!)

When was the last time you experienced Deja Vu?

I was in some strange underwater temple and relieved a day that ended up being something of a turning point in my life.

When was the last time you took a trip purely for your own pleasure?

I was with ICOMOS doing a survey of a (then) potential UNESCO site near Matera, Italy. It was a long trip by car for the rest of the team, but I needed to save time, so I arrived by helicopter and took a shorter walk to the location. One of the lead surveyors was an older Italian woman with peppered hair and well tanned skin. After we had our brief introductions, I told them that I'd like to do a quick survey and then I needed to go.

She asked me how much time I had, and I said 30 minutes. There was a chuckle to my haste, and she told me "Take more time."

I ended up taking the rest of the day, and the helicopter couldn't wait, so I hiked with the rest of the team and took a car back to Bari. At the end of the trip, she gave me a replica coin in brass -- an owl on a pedestal with the words 'Sapientia Principis" (Prince of Wisdom). Turns out she gives this to all her first-year trainees, I was honored either way.

I left home when I was about 14 and went back in June of last year, during the summer. Three days later, I was hanging with an extremist environmental group from Norway called Ultralett.


The last time you were surprised?

I ran into an old friend at a company outing. When i tried to talk with said friend, things quickly spiralled out of control and i found myself in the middle of a deep sea adventure.

A fishing buddy asked me for help. It was a reminder that, despite whatever image we show the world, we all have personal limits.

When was the last time you did something completely selfless, without expectation of recognition or repayment?

I don't recall this ever happening...

@Joe Kerr stole my car and I still helped him.

The last time you knew you should have been asleep, but weren't, and nothing good came of it?

(OOC: I stayed up all night reading and I don't know when I fell asleep but I was late for class and slept through them most of the day. Nearly fell asleep while driving.

When is the last time you had a dream about when you were very young.

Maybe about a year or so ago... In the dream I was at a wedding, as a ring bearer. It was before ceremonies and I was already dressed in my little tuxedo and wandering around. For some reason, I found the bride's veil, took it, and ran to hide in the kitchen pantry. My mother found me and asked what I was doing -- to which I replied, with no shortage of tears: "I didn't want to get married."


The last time you did something completely random and how did it work out?

I found this endearing. Genuinely, not selectively, in case of confusion.

I praised someone. I've yet to see how it works out.


The last time you had your favorite food, and what was it?

    @Lucy ... don't know if you really want wolf spiders in your home... I'd go for jumping spiders, they can't bite... wolf spiders are the fast movers, and they can bite.

    ((Will lose my ACP internet towards the end of the month, unless anyone knows about it ending sooner. Trying to switch my Lifeline phone to a better provider that doesn't shut me off after four and a half gigs of data, nothing but failure so far and "call here" and "it's on their end" and the back and forth crap... in the morning, it's time to demand the supervisor and might even get to harsh language (after three days of that). I plan to use the Lifeline phone tethered as Internet source, share that to my own router... I've done it before (it's messy, and not 100% effective, but it works). ))

I have active Verizon through ACP, active Lifeline through Airtalk... is that somehow the issue? If anyone knows, please let me know before I tear someone a new one (ya know what I mean). After three days of this, and two days about a month ago, I'm ready to walk there with katana in hand.))
