Yes, but I'd rather eat my trail mix.
Do you think people who go to Times Square on New Year's Eve are crazy?

Yes, since the advent of pens to coral them for the whole evening, they are crazy.
(When my parents did it once in the late 1940's, you could move around freely.)

Will attend a party on New Year's Eve?

 

[Edge]

No one of my favorite nights of the year to stay home is New Years Eve (lately I barely even stay up for the ball drop).
Do you have ice cubes in your freezer?

[milagros317]

Yes, I love rice. My favorite rice is fried rice as served in Chinese restaurants.

Do you like pasta?

 

[Edge]

No. I eat it on occasion (I like spaghetti especially and pasta with broccoli). But coming from an Italian family I grew up not to like it nearly as much as I am "supposed to."
Do you ever pray?

 

[milagros317]

No, I haven't prayed in many years. The last time that I attended a religious service that was neither a wedding nor a funeral was in 1970.

Do you attend church regularly?

 

[Edge]

No I don't but I do pray.

Have you ever slept more than 12 hours straight?

 

[milagros317]

Yes, many years ago (about half a century ago).

Do you like to sleep for at least 8 hours every night?

 

[Edge]

No I gave that up this summer. I purposely set the goal to sleep 7 solid hours per night. I found it works well for me and gives me a little more time in the evening.
Will you go out less this winter than you do the other 3 seasons?

Yes, I have one that is weighted.
Is wind the worst part of a storm (due to not wanting to lose power? Mine flashed off this morning 5AM which is why I got up early).

No, flooding can be worse than wind if the water rises to several inches over the level of your floor.

Have you ever been in a flood?

 

[Edge]

No, not stranded in one thankfully.
