1. Who or where do you go to when you need help for web-related problems? I guess I don't have very many of these, because I don't have a "go-to" person. However, the last issue I had, you know, the one with my archives not working? That one was solved by Stennie, genius that she is.
2. There is a big mess of gossip going on in Blogland due to revelations about a very popular Blogger. I got very caught up in reading all the links to links about it until I stopped myself realizing it was none of my buisiness. Do you ever get caught up in gossip, either speading it or listening to it? How does it make you feel? Or have you ever been the subject of gossip? Oh god yes, I get caught up in gossip a lot, especially now that I have a job that has me working with other people While gossip is evil, it is also very interesting, which is why I suppose it gets out of hand. I usually loathe myself when I get in the middle of a gossip session, and tend to excuse myself right in the middle. Unless of course, the gossip is particularly juicy and not cruel in nature. Now as for having been the subject of gossip - yes of course I have. I think everyone has from time to time.
3. In a relationship, when your other takes a dig at you (read: a fight), do you go for the jugular and get "in their face" or try to peacefully smooth things out and have a calm discussion? Generally I try to be the peacemaker and smooth things over, I'll always promise to look into a criticism. However, if the fight starts by the other person yelling at me, I'll get defensive before I even think about what is going on. It's like a reflex.
4. A friend once told me "You can tell when someone is bored with what you are saying to them when they reply with 'That's interesting.'" And I have found this to be pretty dang true. How do you know when someone has lost interest in what you are saying? I tend to talk a lot, which bores people. So I've gotten pretty adept at figuring out when they've had enough. Cues from the other person that I pick up on are: they look down or out the window, they sigh a lot, try to change the subject, stare at me blankly and say absolutely nothing, or they do say "and the #1 way I can tell people are bored with me- they suddenly have to leave.
5. Ever get jealous of the popularity other Blogs? I have no idea whose blogs are popular.
6. What is your favorite dirty word? (those who don't curse can pick your favorite happy word) Too many to mention

7. (the continuing story...) OK, we are definitely doing that again. But seeing as it is nearly 6am now, how about breakfast? Anywhere you'd like to go or should we fix our own? What do you like? Or is there something else we need to do first? I will respond to this by sighing, rolling my eyes, looking out the window and leaving.

BONUS: What have I done to deserve this? You were born.
