Katha's Survey

I got this survey on a notecard in SL, and liked it.

Mom

I just threw out over 1,000. I'm down to 7,505, and still working on getting it down lower.

What are you listening to right now?
The hum of my computer and every so often, my daughter exclaiming how cute whatever furry little animal she is looking at at the time. (Last one was an angora bunny.)

What was the last thing you ate?
A sandwich and a handful of dried cranberries

Can you drive a stick shift?
Sure can.

My mom.

In the theater, Get Smart, on DVD, I think it was Lord of the Rings: Return of the King. The kids had a three night film festival of sorts. It was quite enjoyable.

Favourite day of year?
Thanksgiving or Christmas, any day that the family gets together.

What do you do to vent your anger?
Depends, sometimes I rant, or sometimes I cry. Sometimes both.

What was your favourite toy as a child?
I depends on the stage of life. When I was very small, I had a stuffed elephant I loved, there was also a Baby Secret that my sister told me was alive. Then there were Barbie dolls. Second Life is like playing Barbie dolls, only with better wardrobes. Guess I still love playing Barbie!

I don't even wanna look.
 
Who is the friend you have had the longest you are sending this to?
Since I am posting this on my Multiply page, as well as the notecard in SL, I would have to say my Gin-Gin. We were in the same kindergarten class together

Favourite smells?
Rain, fresh fruit, onions and garlic in olive oil on the stove, roses, red wine, coffee, newborn babies. If I go on, I'm gonna need pages and pages!
 
Who inspires you?
I like Lea's answer- my children
 
What are you afraid of?
Agreeing with Lea again- losing someone that I love.
 
Plain, cheese or spicy hamburgers?
Cheeseburgers, but I don't mind if they're a bit spicy
 
Favourite car?
I'm leaving the first part of Lea's answer, because that is what the bottom line is, "the one that gets me from point A to point B".
For wow factor, like, what would I get if money were no object? I love the Dodge Magnum.

Whatever breed I used to have. They were good little kitty cats.

Oh My Gosh! She's Alive! (Or, Art Challenge Submission)

Where have I been? I know, I know. It's like I can't concentrate on more than one thing at a time, and playing Tiny Empires is SO much fun!
Anyway, I decided I had to try to conquer the feeling of helplessness I get every time I look at my Multiply inbox, and one of those things was the Art Challenge. Here's my submission on friendship and what it means to me:

Photobucket

This is rwjjw on my list, taken when we were teens or thereabouts. We went to the Sun-Vet Mall, goofing around and taking weird pictures. I don't remember why, but we thought the sideways glance was the most hilarious thing! *LOL*
