All of them.
My favorite is the IRL (i.e. non-Hollywood) pack-hunter with potential wings that were could have been used to keep balance while it perched upon your sorry shoulders and ate your freaking face off.

Do you play an instrument?

I play piano/keys, bass guitar, mandolin, ukulele, and banjo. However, some of those I know just enough to be able to accompany in an acoustic jam or something. My favorite to play in a group is definitely bass, as I feel the most confident and comfortable playing it, especially in rock or blues. My second favorite to play in a group and my favorite solo instrument (and my favorite to mess around with at home) is definitely the uke. It's SO DANG FUN, man.
My least favorite to play with people around is banjo, for the sole reason that everyone expects me to know Dueling Banjos. I've been playing off and on for all of six months... I'm not that good at it yet

it's really quite fun though. I learned enough to accompany an acoustic worship service at my church.

That's more than I can play. Lol my former guitar teacher was like that. He played bassoon, mandolin, guitar, saxophone, drums, bass guitar, and more. I can only play the piano, cello and guitar. I play piano for my youth group's worship band and I play cello for the church orchestra and in an ensemble put together by my teacher. When I played guitar a lot, my guitar teacher put together a guitar ensemble which sounded very nice when I didn't mess up.
Dogs or cats?

At this point in my life, I only have the time and energy for something I can feed periodically and nuzzle its furry belly (in the hopes I won't get scratched

) so I guess you could say that I'm a temporary cat person
Also: I am a little bit jealous about playing the cello. I've always wanted to learn that.

Depends, really, but I've had friends who have kept rats that were AWWWWWRIGHT so I am not opposed to them

Ohhh boy. You're going to have to be more specific as to the occasion

In general, I like anything and everything, but if I had to pick a single drink for any occasion, I'd go with beer.
AHHH, beer... You can get as fancy or as low-brow as you want. Michigan has some great brews, too. I'm happy with pretty much anything. I know Arch loves him some IPA, but I don't have those super often. Michigan also has access to a lot of Canadian beers (especially lagers), too, and those offset the heavy pub grub pretty well. The last couple pub runs I've done have involved a lovely deep amber Scottish ale called True Scot.

10 times better than the horrifying humid heat of Florida.

That old expression doesn't work so well in text form.

Not yet :\ it's all stuff I already have or don't want.
I was going to get Age of Mythology for 45% off (as a 4-pack for my friends and I, and we'd all chip in for it) but by the time I got home, I had missed the flash sale.
By 20-30 minutes. o_o
Hopefully they'll renew some sales toward the end of the sale. It's currently 22.99 for AoM or 67.49 or something for a 4-pack, and I might get that if it doesn't get a bigger sale again.

I've been on the fence for AoM, too. I'm pretty sure it'll come around on a bigger sale.
