    Where do you play?

    I'm in a band and non-musicians ask this question all the time. I live in NYC...do I really have to run down the list of places I play?

    Answer: Wherever PAYS.

    "what's your secret?" Especially since no one wants to accept the answer, that there is no secret!!!!!

    Followed by "are those pink work boots?". Yes, they make pink work boots. And yes, I think they're awesome.

    In my current job and social circle I am so pleased to almost NEVER get the dreaded questions re: kids, religion, and boring career stuff.

    I do still get the weight loss Q's but for the most part that has waned now that everyone has either blown me off as a liar or tried MFP and loved or hated it for themselves.

    Over the past year or two the Q I get asked the most is "where did you get your (insert item of clothing or accessory/bag)!?" and I don't honestly mind.

    When are you getting a boyfriend? (Nice question for someone with anxiety who has no friends and no interest on well...)
    Why are you dieting? (Not f***** dieting, just watching what I eat more carefully, want a Kit Kat?)

    My nationality/ethnicity I get asked this all the time which is fine, it's better than assuming, I just get tired of hearing myself say it all the time. I might just start wearing a sign that tells everyone "what" I am.

    "Do you ever sleep?"

    I'm a night owl with chronic insomnia... So, not much!

    What is it you do again?

    Seems I can tell people over and over that I work in instructional technology at a college, and even explain what it is, but it never sticks. I've resolved to tell people I teach.

    "Do you ever sleep?"

    I'm a night owl with chronic insomnia... So, not much!

    Same here, but most people know that anymore so I stopped getting asked and they just make statements like, 'I could never run on that little sleep'.
