Got this from Jen.

1. How old were you in 1980? I turned 5 in April of 1980.

2. How old were you in 1989? Turned 14 in April.

7. Who is your Favorite Golden Girl? Betty White.

8. When someone says "Who you gonna call?" Ghostbusters!

9. What was your favorite toy? I had these G.I. Joe phones with a 30-foot cord between them, and my brother and I used to string 'em around our living room and dining room. Because, you know, cordless phones weren't invented yet, and it was WAY too far to just yell. :)

10. Did you have a Pogo Ball? I don't think I ever had one, but I happily used to maim myself on my friends'.

15. Did you have Jelly bracelets? Nope. That was girly stuff.

16. Did you have a charm necklace and/or bracelet? Nope. Girly!

17. Did you own a glo-worm? Nope. My son has one, though.

18. Did you ever own a slap bracelet? First, girly. Second, I watched a kid in my elementary school nearly put her eye out with one of those, and they just made me nervous.

19. The Breakfast Club or Sixteen Candles? Breakfast Club. "Could you describe the ruckus?"

20. Did you have a crazy hair style? Does "Chia Pet" count as a crazy hair style?

22. Name one thing you still own from your childhood? Wow, I don't think there's anything I still own from then.

23. Did you have a Cabbage Patch Kid? My sister Ellen had one. It was named Sabina Julia (don't even ask me how I remember that), but it was later renamed to just "Julie".
