Nathan's Answers

    The people  I know generally have good internet connections. One of the strange effects of this is that they get, and send, an inordinate amount of inane email. Generally, I don't feel the need to respond, or return the favor. However, I've always found the self Q&A's sort of interesting, if only because they get you to think about things that you may not normally. I figure that since I have a strict policy of having no personal secrets, I may as well go about answering all these questions. For now, I'm just going to load them up. If I get bored one day, I may break them down by topic or something. Alright, fine, I'll do a *little* sorting now, okay? Sheesh.

Last phone number I called: Katie Tackett's
Last movie I saw on the big screen: Whoa, it's actually been a while since I've gone to see one. I can't quite remember. Based on my "Go See" list, it may *actually* have been Shopgirl with Carrie last Thanksgiving, but that really does seem unlikely.

Last person I hugged: Danielle is the last person I remember actively hugging, but there were probably hugs exchanged as rabbits left.
Last person I kissed: Rachel
Last person I had sex with: Andrea, on July 4th...that's probably my last for a while, though.
Worst thing I said: Good question. I leave that up to who it was said to. I can think of worst times I *didn't* say anything and should have.
Last person I talked to online: Andy, my boss, but I talk online so much it's not like that's going to last.
Last person I talked to on the phone: Amit, from Chase. For non-work, Katie and I are playing phone tag.
Last thing I smelled: I'm a bit snotty at the moment, so not very much.
