This set of question isn't really that adult - more like having to do adult things, which are more boring and necessary than fun.
I'm just back from the blood bank, where I donated plasma. It was my 25th donation today - which means I got a pin and a block of chocolate. It's a nice thing to do on a cloudy day.
Let's get on with the questions, which have been sourced by Sunday Stealing, as always.
1. Do you have a college degree?
I have two. A Bachelor of Arts in Classics and English, which was done far too long ago. I also completed a Master of Arts in Writing around ten years ago. I have been lucky enough to use both of these degrees in my career.
2. What was the amount of your last electric bill?
My last electricity bill was $77 in credit. I recently changed suppliers, and part of the deal with the government rebate was put towards your first bill. This bill is normally around $100 a month on average. The hot water and gas bills are normally around $50 a quarter - and these have gone up recently, only because prices have gone up (hence changing suppliers).
3. Do you have life insurance?
Yes. Those sorts of insurances are attached to my superannuation .(I think the Brits call this your voluntary pension, the US calls it an IRA or 401K). This means I don't have to think about it much.
4. Do you check your cholesterol on (at least) an annual basis?
Yes. My doctor runs my bloods around once a year. Thankfully I'm stupidly healthy.
5. Have you ever attended a high school reunion?
Yes. Just one. That's enough.
6. Do you have a will or estate plan?
Yes. I have a will registered with a lawyer. My affairs are simple, thank goodness, but it's been done and it's all above board.
7. Do you remember when MTV played music videos?
Very much so. I remember when MTV started. Mind you, in Australia we had our own, home-grown music show, Countdown (like the Brits had Top of the Pops). I used to love it. It drove my mother mad.
8. Is there a bottle of wine in your refrigerator?
Yes. I have a bottle of French champagne in the fridge - Piper Heidsieck - there for a special occasion. It's been there for years - I've had nothing to celebrate. I must change that.
9. Have you been divorced?
No. Never been married either.
10. When you were 16, did you play music on vinyl, cassette, or CDs?
Way back when God was a boy, I played music on cassettes. DVDs didn't come out into mass use until the later 80s. I do miss a good mixed tape.
