Okay, let's try this while I'm wide awake.

1. No. I think I used to when I worked at BBM&P, but that's it. I did visit fairly frequently while working on Terminal Monday, I suspect.
2. About once a day, on average. One of my five defining Sim traits is absent-mindedness.
3. Absolutely not, I can quit any time. *twitch*

3. Yes, but my pets don't like snuggling with me.

1. I don't know too many of my neighbours any more, but those few I do I like. The Portuguese sisters are still charming, Kain is a bit of a pothead, but nice and harmless, the lesbian couple upstairs are quiet and polite (and the brunette is personable; the blonde not so much), and the gamers across the hall haven't come out for more than a minute in months, so I'm not even sure if they're both still alive.
2. I live on the ground floor. I'm so over it. I would love to move upstairs now, but the rent will go up a great deal if I do move.
3. I suspect whales are the coolest.

1. Waitaminute, haven't I answered this one before? The question isn't 'how is a good way' but 'what do you want to say, and why?' Once you know those answers, the how part becomes easy. You should feel compelled to speak once you know what you want to say and why you want to say it.
My suggestion is, have fun. If you're not smiling, it's not working.
2. This. I'm having conversations with people all over the world, and consider a number of them to be friends. Before I bought my first computer, I was alone and making music, on relatively primitive recording equipment, that no one was listening to. Now all sorts of people have heard my music, and as a consequence, I've gone back to novel writing.
3. I'd like radio to be as important to me as it was in my teens. Sadly, it just isn't possible. Radio/audio drama is extremely niche, and Clear Channel has killed commercial radio in North America. I do occasionally listen to internet radio, but it's just not the same.

1. My Police concert teeshirt?
2. Crocs.
3. Yes, but we shant discuss it.
Okay, actually, there was a girl--sitting in front of me on the bus one day on the way home from work--who had made the tragic fashion error of trying to wear those ridiculous emo skinny jeans, when she had in fact a very shapely posterior. So as she stood up, her pants had slid half way down her lovely bottom, and I got a rather dizzying view of her g-string before she scurried off, pulling her pants back into place as she went. It didn't make me laugh, but it made me smile for several minutes afterwards.
We've already discussed the decadent old man thing, right?

1. Being an unemployed graphic designer with aspirations of being a published novelist, I would have to say... hot dog vendor.
2. A few times, yes. I consider them learning experiences. I've promised myself to apologize if I ever see them again.
3. Horrid.

1. The last one, at Hamilton Copy Copy. I've never hated a full time job so much that I considered suicide as an alternative before.
2. Goodbye.
3. No.

Me too. And I wasn't even drinking that night. Just got online thinking I was much more coherent than I was.

1. Anxious.
2. Not these days. I used to frequent karaoke bars and a local pub, but these days, I'm a recluse.
3. Sing 'Travelin' Band' by CCR. The last time I did it, the whole building woke up. I'd like to see if I can repeat that experience fifteen years later. Barring that, I'd probably play 'Going Through the Motions', if I could remember it all.

1. Porn. No. The biggest use is probably just me posting to forums and journals. Oh, and Sims 3.
2. I don't play my musical instruments enough, because I stopped for so long that, every time I try to play now, I hear something so dreadful, it makes me stop again.
3. I've got a few dishes in my repertoire that folks have commented favourably about. That said, I don't think of myself as a Good Cook.

1. Remove my clothing and go for a long walk. Then I'd come home and get back to work. I don't have an audience now, either, so nothing would have changed.
2. 'Love everyone, as much as you wish, as deeply as you like, without conditions, reservations, or expectations.'
3. A cinnamon raisin bagel with herb & garlic creme cheese.
