x-no-archive: yes

1. Name something that you are saving up for, or something you would
like to buy for yourself in the near future.

Car repairs.

2. What is something you would like to keep on doing forever and a
day, but can't because it's bad for you
physically/emotionally/spiritually.

Smoke. Down to 8 a day. Only smoke outside.

3. Do you have a hidden talent? Something obscure that you can do
pretty well but don't advertise?

Draw and paint. And I am very good. There...I finally said
it...whew...that felt strange.

4. What about exercise. What do you do to keep fit?

Walk. Doing 6 miles a week now.

Or what would you like to do if you weren't too damned depressed to do it?

Write and illustrate children's books.

5. Reality T.V. shows? Love 'em or hate 'em?

When I had TV, I hated them.

6. If you could have anything named after yourself, what would it be?

A star.

or be known for something famous what would it be?

My artwork.

7. Do you have a flair for decorating? What is one of your best ideas
for sprucing up a tired looking room.

Yes. A hand-painted floor to ceiling mural. And I sew. Made my own
curtains, slipcovers, and pillow shams. I also made my own faux stained
glass lampshades using glass paint.

8. What is your most hated house-hold chore? (Okay, you can have two
or three if you like) :)

All of it, but mostly dishes. They never end.

9. Are you afraid of dying? If so, why?

No.

10. What is your favourite thing to do in order to relax and unwind?

This is so weird I can't believe I am even admitting to it. Colour. In
colouring books with markers. But in my own defense...adult themed
colouring books...The History of Ballet...Medieval Costumes...Celtic
Designs
and Spirals...then I make collages and frame them for hanging.

line dancing 3 times a week
walk briskly 10 minutes from a distant bus stop to my office, not
fewer than 3 times a week

I would like to swim a mile each week; I know I am able to do it,
but the time it takes to go to the pool, change, shower, change
back, and go home, that's depressing.

don't know sprucing up a tired looking room, but this summer I
put a discarded toilet into the front yard, filled the tank and
basin with earth, and planted some nice ivy in it (note to self:

A sewing machine. I've stitched all of my drapes and pillows and
quilts by hand.

Mmmm. It's sort of hard to pick, because I have this constant
construction project house, but I'd really, really like a hot tub.

2. What is something you would like to keep on doing forever and a

Smoking. Yeah, the food thing, too, but you can't smoke just a little
bit, and you can eat just a little bit.

3. Do you have a hidden talent? Something obscure that you can do

Cook, probably. I actually don't advertise most of the things that I
do pretty well.

4. What about exercise. What do you do to keep fit? Or what would you

Racquetball, though it's been ages since I played. The gym, though
it's been ages since I've gone. Sigh.

5. Reality T.V. shows? Love 'em or hate 'em?

Hate most of them, but I kind of have a thing for The Apprentice.

6. If you could have anything named after yourself, or be known for
something famous what would it be?

I liked the song idea, but it's been years since I've written music,
so that doesn't seem likely. I'd like to make really, really good
glass art. I don't really want anything named for me, though.

7. Do you have a flair for decorating? What is one of your best ideas
for sprucing up a tired looking room.

I don't think that I have a flair for decorating, but I think I can
make any room look more comfortable.

8. What is your most hated house-hold chore? (Okay, you can have two
or three if you like) :)

Vacuuming. By a long shot. Cleaning the cat box. All the stuff that
has to be done every day that has nothing creative about it.

9. Are you afraid of dying? If so, why?

Mmmm. Not of dying exactly. Of the process of death, a little. Of
leaving the people I love, very.

10. What is your favourite thing to do in order to relax and unwind?

Lie in bed with Michael and laugh until we fall asleep.

6. If you could have anything named after yourself, or be known for
something famous what would it be?

i would like a dinosaur named after me.

I'm saving up as part of a contingency plan for any unforseen expense, so
that I can be with Nina. What I'd like in the material sense is a Nikon D70s
with a Nikkor 60mm Macro lens for ebay pics.

2. What is something you would like to keep on doing forever and a

Eat, be aware, sex.

3. Do you have a hidden talent? Something obscure that you can do

I used to be a good dancer. I can paint and draw, and I have a natural talent
for selling.

4. What about exercise. What do you do to keep fit? Or what would you

I don't do anything because of a bad knee. I used to like walking, and I
loved cycling.

Junk junk junk junk and junk.

6. If you could have anything named after yourself, or be known for

Something not very nice that I cannot say in public.

7. Do you have a flair for decorating? What is one of your best ideas

I have a good eye for design but I don't use it at all. As for rooms, the
scruffier the better.

8. What is your most hated house-hold chore? (Okay, you can have two

All, I'm not house trained.

9. Are you afraid of dying? If so, why?

Yes, ***** scared, even though I am often suicidal. Why? Nina....

10. What is your favourite thing to do in order to relax and unwind?

Be with Nina. She's valium, atavan, malt whisky and a hard days work all
rolled into a laugh, a smile, and a kiss.

card would have.

Play piano or drums, but make up my own music, have never played for a
band or anything, except for sitting through a couple of songs once,
and at church a long time ago.

3. Do you have a hidden talent? Something obscure that you can do

Ummm... okay, you know those little musical balls that you roll around
in your hands? I can do that pretty quickly without the two of them
touching each other. I bought them originally for stress relief, but
I've found it keep my fingers agile for piano playing.
