Well - sorta.  I read a number of news outlets online - does that count?  I don't read anything on paper anymore.

Do you know how to sew?

Well - sorta.  My gran showed me how to sew a bit way back when, and I took 4H sewing as I recall -- but it's been ages & being terribly out of practice (not having a machine either), I doubt I could still do much (but would love to try sometime if I had the time).

What sort of job do you do for a living?

It was magenta.  My dad and I went to a police auction and got it for $1.  I loved it - we added a basket to the front and those cool spoke covers in all different neon colors.  I loved that bicycle.  I learned to ride on it!

What was the worst job you've had?  The best?

Um, of course.  When I was 18, I got drunk and started dancing a little too much in the music store.  I'll admit that one, I guess.  I still cringe when I think of it.


What time did you go to bed last night?

if someone gives you  knives  or hankerchiefs or hangers  as a gift, you should give them  some  change  or money.. not to cut a baby's hair until the first year.. not to throw away holy cards.. don't walk on graves..

Fruit juice.  Used to drink it all the time, but stopped about 6 months ago.

What is one of your guilty pleasures?

Yep!  Buying some yarn for my new winter scarf and hat this week!

If you could go back and change one decision you've made, what would it be, and why?

I don't think I'd change anything actually - good or bad.  Everything I've done and lived through has made me who I am, and I'm pretty happy with that.  :)

Do you have a container of special hand lotion on your desk at work that you only like to smell when you are there?

Two old friends from high school. Loads of friends from my college days. Some really good friends from my divorce/single days. I tend to make and keep friends for years and years.

Did you play in any high school sports..such as basketball,football,track,baseball? If so do you still enjoy playing a game when you get the chance?
