Life In The Oyster

Beefloaf says I have to.

1. Grab the book nearest to you, turn to page 18, and find line 4. " 'Won't--,' her voice squeaked. 'Go to"... From "When She Hollers" by Cynthia Voight, one of my all time favorite authors.

2. Stretch your left arm out as far as you can. What's there? The Ceiling. I'm up in the loft.

3. What is the last thing you watched on TV? Actually Watched. Really on TV? hmmm.... I can't remember. It's probably been months... But I watched Lost: Season two on dvd in my computer today.

4. Without looking, guess what time it is: 1:00 AM

5. Now look at the clock. What is the actual time? 1:08 AM

6. With the exception of the computer, what can you hear? Distant cars, but then the computer started humming...

7. When did you last step outside? What were you doing? 8:59 PM, tonight. I was leaving work to go home.

8. Before you started this survey, what did you look at? Beeefloaf's blog, where I discovered he'd tagged me. I'm trying to stop procrastinating, so here I am.

9. What are you wearing? My pajamas.

10. Did you dream last night? yes. And it was weird.

11. When did you last laugh? Hmm, that I remember, at work, when one of the guys had a thread hanging off his clothes and didn't get the way I told him, but then his friend thought it was hilarious.

12. What is on the walls of the room you are in? Some Psalms, a Panthers Sticker (the local highschool) The Valentine's letter Jacob wrote in... A long time ago. And random scribblings. (The walls are just unfinished drywall)

13. Seen anything weird lately? No. Not really.

14. What do you think of this quiz? If Nate thought it was boring, why did he make me take it?

18. If you could change one thing about the world, regardless of guilt or politics, what would you do? Golly... That's a tough one. Human nature?

19. Do you like to dance? Do I like to? Yes. Can I? That is still to be determined.

20. George Bush? Should have another daughter and name her Rose.

21. Imagine your first child is a girl, what do you call her? I'm not sure. It depends on if Bethany's used Cleobelle yet.

26. What website are you looking at? The one where you write the posts.

27. What colour are your eyes? blue.

28. What's the first thing you remember doing? Waiting for my mom to get home from the grocery store. I was standing at the window in my nightgown, that was flannel. It was either that or Priscilla getting mad at me for climbing into bed with her and making a mess.

29. Who is the biggest influence to something you enjoy doing? My mom taught me to read. My cousin taught me to knit. Jason's dad taught me play guitar. My dad says it's ok to be abnormal, and that's got to be what I enjoy most.

30. If you could be animal which would you be and why? Such a hard question! Swim, Fly, Run.... I think I'd like to fly, so maybe a Hawk.

A Solitary Blue by Cynthia Voight. I'm not sure that's my favorite, but it's probably the closest that I own.

32. If you had the opportunity to do something extremely extreme what would it be? Um. I'm not really extreme. Like that... Maybe go skydiving?

33. What would you do if you fell off a really tall ladder? Hit the ground. Maybe I'd manage to grab something on my way down, but probably not.
