Becky's Alphabet Tag

A-Attached or Single--attached to Mexica
B-Best Friends--they know who they are
C-Cake or Pie--why even ask? Cake, even the best cake, is nowhere on the radar beside a good piece of pie, particularly apple pie made with tart apples, served with razor sharp cheddar cheese and good vanilla ice cream
D-Day of Choice-Sunday is my only day off
E-Essential Item-Internet connection
F-I need to give my youngest child some alphabet lessons
G-Greatest Accomplishment-This is technical, but my work creating the childhood disability evaluation form is something that's lasted more than 10 years now--an eternity in government forms time--and people still comment on how good the form is. How's that for obscure and arcane?
H-Hometown-Springfield, Mass.
I-Indulgences-An occasional trip to the Philippines, a subscription to the Opera
J-January or July-Well, January is my birthday, so it gets the slight edge even though July has baseball and Independence Day
K-Kids-5-3 boys and 2 girls
L-Life is Incomplete Without--Baseball
M-Marriage Date-I'll let you know
N-Number of Siblings-2, 1 bro, 1 sis
O-Oranges or Apples-Apples
P-Phobias-Heights-if I was 6' tall, I'd be scared to stand up
Q-Quotes-"No one in this world has ever lost money by underestimating the intelligence of the great masses of the plain people" (H. L. Mencken)
R-Reason to Smile-W leaves office in under 2 months, though he leaves little to smile about.
S-Season-Fall
T-Tag-Haven't played in years, I'm more of a hide-and-seek guy
U-Unknown Facts About Me-If I wanted you to know, they wouldn't be unknown facts
V-Very Favorite Store-Powell's Bookstore in Portland OR
W-Worst Habit-Procrastination
X-X-Ray or Ultra Sound-I'm getting more and more x-rays these days, just spare me any more MRIs.
Y-Your Favorite Food-This changes by the day-lumpia, shrimp cocktail, rare steak, jambalaya are all good, but it is very difficult to do better than a high-quality, well-prepared hamburger.
Z-Zodiac sign-Aquarius (Chinese-Ox)
