Random Dozen 2010 - 8?

I've been dealing with life lately and not blogging much so have missed a bunch of the Randoms...but I do enjoy making myself think, so here goes again.
Lidna ... Linda over at 2nd cup of Coffee does this meme.
1. Have you ever fired a gun or shot a bow and arrow?
Yes and Yes and darn good at both!

2. Do you know where your childhood best friends are?
We moved a lot when I was a child so most of my friends are memories, but one or two are still in my life and my BEST friend from 7th grade on is still one of my best friends, low these many years later...and no I am not going to say how many! :D

3. Do you usually arrive early, late, or on time?
If I am by myself, and NO ONE else is home, I will be early or on-time. Otherwise I am late. Even if they are not coming with me...don't know why, just true.

4. Are you more of a New York or California type?
Worked in Manhattan for 2 years and have visited many times. Vacationed several times in Northern California (SF and up) and loved it. Do I really have to choose?

5. Do you have a special ring tone?
I have ring tones for different people so that I know who is calling by the ring (those little letters on the screen are SOOOOO tiny)

6. What is your favorite type of chip?
Not really a chip person, but I guess corn chips.

7. Best comedy you've ever seen is ....
Right now it would have to be 'Big Bang theory'

8. Have you ever cut your own hair? To quote Dr. Phil, "How'd that work for ya?"
Yep and poorly! In college I got upset with myself and I guess as punishment cut my own hair. Man, I was harsh!

9. If you were going to have an extreme makeover, would you rather it be about your house or your personal self?
House, I am pretty happy with me right now.

10. Are you allergic to anything?
Heavy perfumes give me migraines. But nothing life-threatening.

11. Why is it so hard to change?
Hey wait a minute. This question is HARD! I don't remember where it is from but the quote I live by is "Change is the enemy" but I do know that sometimes I have to change.....heavy sigh!

12. One last question dedicated to February love: CS Lewis said, "To love is to be vulnerable." Please share one example of that assertion or share any thought you'd like to about this topic.
I think you have to be vulnerable to fall in love. If you are not open, it is impossible to believe that anyone will love you. And if you don't believe that then you close yourself off and never get to experience the giddiness that comes from realizing that someone loves YOU.
