*I can easily talk with just about anyone--strangers or not.

*I love live music--in divey places frequented by locals.

*The only cluttered/messy room where I live is the office.

*I'm not afraid of getting older--rather, I'm looking forward to it (if the last few years have been any indication of how good it's gonna be).

*I text (on the cell phone) only when stopped at red lights or in traffic if I'm driving.

[Softly]

I also love leaving notes for her before I leave for work in the mornings telling her how much i'll miss her and thank you's for all she does for me. I love that we do that. xoxo

* I had perfect attendance throughout school (1-12).
* The second house I lived in as a teen used to sit squarely in the middle of a pasture. You could look out the window and see cows.
* I'm trying to break the habit of texting/IMing and driving, but I'm pretty good at it.
* I used to read voraciously, but now I find I spend that time online these days.
* I have a polarizing job that people either find totally cool or that it involves something they absolutely care zilch about (sports).

[Blaze]

In 1973 I was the youngest swimmer from Hawaii to make the cut for the Munich Olympics, but missed it by 1/10 of a second, but I still got to go and watch it in Germany.

I have a bad habit of always wanting to start something, and usually never finish it, I get bored.

My favorite vehicle to drive is a Truck

I am very superstitious and many of my reactions come from my ethnic mixed breed back ground.

I am not very good as far as talking to someone and making sense, but I can put words down on paper and it becomes poetry, (then I have to spell check) lol

[Arwen]

1. I love audio books
2. I've been on cruise ship that went through a hurricane
3. I've got a seriously bad sense of direction
4. I used to work for a women's independent music distributor
5. I was at ten Michigan Women's Music Festivals from the 10th to the 20th
   

[Lynn]

1 I love my job, I'm just not overly fond of working.

2. Every day, when I pull up to the building, I have to take a deep breath and get into the right frame of mind.

3. I tend to assume that everyone is at work for the same reason--to do the best job possible. This gets me into trouble from time to time.

4. I go back to bed for at least an hour every morning, after my daughter catches her 6:45am school bus. O.o

5. I rarely sleep though the night. If it isn't my own internal clock, it's the dog's.

[labete]

1. I don't do spontaneous very well. It tends to lead to anxiety attacks.

2. I absolutely despise when people use other people as weapons in their battles, and it's ten times worse if the people used as weapons are children.

3. I really, really want a massage right now.

4. I recently discovered the show "McLeod's Daughters" and have been watching it fanatically through Netflix every time I sit in front of the tv. Australian cowgirls for the win!

5. I really dig the vibe of the Planet vs. other sites in the same community.

[LieslKate]

1) I am a voracious reader of cookbooks and mysteries; I ran out of bookcases a couple of years ago.

2) I am THE eternal optomist but always the dumpee.

3) I am a true red head even though its mostly platinum now.

4) I am an orphan and have buried a child.

5) I am still waiting to grow up !

[SassyLeo]

3. 95% of the lighting in my house was made prior to 1970
4. I do not own any brown clothing or shoes
5. I wish I had a Studebaker Stationwagon

See, now I see why we have such similar taste

I have
1 brown shirt
1 brown sweater
1 brown swimsuit

Guess how much wear they get

[Gemme]

I have a brown swimsuit. It still has the tags on it (and I LIKE brown).

I've never been drunk in my life. See June's post for 'control issues'.

Dust is evil. I battle it irregularly. It regularly wins. See Sassy's post for 'clean and tidy'.

It has been bee u tee full today and, frankly, it's thrown me off so much I don't feel I've enjoyed it as thoroughly as I should.

Molly puked on the carpet and I pretended not to see it. I will feed them and love them and play with them and, on occasion, clean up one of Molly's overexcited tinkles (only on the hardwood floors), but I draw the line at puke piles, cleaning anal glands, and giving medicine. They are rental puppies that have two parents that are perfectly capable of the rest.

Full-size pie shells (refrigerated, not frozen), pizza cutter, and bob's your uncle. Do I win a pie?

1. I have a lot of brown and it gets a lot of wear. I like brown. UPS, too. Known a lot of butches to work there.

(i wanna see if i can interest a local coffeehouse in some small pies...can always use some travel cash or money for more camera equipment)

2. My 7th grade math teacher, Mr. Branch, thought I was a boy for the first 9 weeks of school.

5. The football coaches at my school asked me to be quaterback for our high school football team.
