Ever been arrested? Bonus points if you tell us why. No I have led a very boring life.
I was however once questioned by the police. When I was in college I was hanging out with friends at the school playground down the street from my house after dark. The police pulled up asked us what we were doing. Told us that the playground is only for use during the day and not in the evening. They asked us our names, we lived in a very small town the officer had gone to HS with us and let us go home.
Between a full time chef, stylist, driver, nanny, personal trainer, masseuse or errand runner (who only did those jobs) which one (you only get 1!) would you pick and why? Errand runner. I love to cook, don't care all that much about clothes, I love driving my car, don't have any kids, I already have a personal trainer & a masseuse. That leaves errand runner.
What boards do/did you lurk and/or post on TK and on GBCN?
On TK - my month board, the Seattle board, & budget weddings.
GBCN - here, Travel, food & entertaining. Are there good ones that I should check out?
I still lurk on Snarky Brides and Etiquette, sometimes there is interesting drama to be had. Currently a lot of the "regs" are fighting with Knot Lili. She is one of the Knot employees who is control of censoring and ordering the moderators around.
If your house was burning down what 5 things would you grab? Can't be the practical stuff like pets, insurance papers, ID, etc... The chair in my bedroom that belonged to my great grandmother. The map on my wall that shows all the places I travelled from 2007-2009. The wine box from our wedding ceremony. The DVD of the old home movies. H's terrible towel.
If you were to host a dinner for any 5 people in the world (dead or alive) who would they be? Who would be catering said soiree? Jesse James Marie Curie Marilyn Monroe Dalai Lama Tom Brady
What's worse, biting your tongue or stubbing your toe? Stubbing my toe. I bruise easily and I'm sure I would end up with a bruise for weeks afterwards.
What would today's self tell your 13 year old self? Your 21 year old self? 13 year old self. Be yourself. Don't worry about what other people think . 21 year old self. Move to Boston with your sister.

Why do you support your H's terrible Steelers habit? (this coming from a Seahawks fan who will never forget Super Bowl XL)
Favorite places in Seattle for cheap food, expensive food, getting a drink?
Cheap food: Any HH is good for cheap food. Expensive food: Ray's Boathouse or Book Bindery Getting a drink: Fremont brewery for beer. Zig Zag for cocktails. Purple for wine.
Obama, Romney or are you leaving for Canada? Obama. I lived in MA when Romeny was governer don't want to go through that again.
What were your top 3 problems with Romney as governor when you lived in MA?
1) His lack of consistency. He would seem to say whatever it was he thought people wanted to hear (I know most politicians do this but it just seemed way worse with him). Was constantly being called out for saying the opposite of something he had said previously.
2) He was always looking to move onto bigger and better things. It was well known that he only intended to run for 1 term as without the experience as Governor he stood less of a chance of a Presidential candidacy.
3) His opposition to same-sex marriage.
On the plus side he did enact mandatory health insurance for MA residents. I do find it funny that he now is such an opponent of universal health care.
