My mind is pleasantly blank. Oh, and I wish we had a fireplace in the bedroom.
We're watching a show on the fabulous homes that the rich and famous have, but I'm grateful for my comfy, homey home.
Still, why can't I be rich??
Listening to Calvin laugh at the TV.
Nothing at the moment.

Bandwagoning (again)
Scarfed from Heather.
[Name]: Laura
[Birthday]: 7/20/74
[Siblings]: My sister, who lives in Maine and was just elected Selectman of her town. West Poland, Maine will never know what hit 'em.
[Hair color]: Brunette
[Eye color]: Blue
[Height]: 5'3
[Been kissed]: Not only kissed, but totally macked on.
[Been in love]: I am right now!
[Eaten an entire box of oreos]: Uh, no. But I HAVE eaten an entire bag of Lay's Salt-n-Vinegar potato chips in one sitting, while reading a book.
[Been on stage]: Afraid so. I was in chorus in Jr. High, and I performed in our school's production of The Sound of Music. I took dance lessons from the age of five until thirteen, and performed in recitals for tap, jazz, and ballet.
[Gotten in a car accident]: No (knock on wood).
[Dyed your hair]: Blonde highlights.
[Choked in front of people on my own spit or drink]: Only when someone makes me crack up while I'm taking a drink. My friends have been known to time it that way on purpose.
[Gone to school in your pajamas]: Yep, we had "Spirit Week" every year, and each day of the week we dressed up in a different theme. "Pajama Day" was a popular day.
[Gotten a detention]: Once for not finishing my Math homework. The teacher was giving out detentions to anyone not doing their homework to try to reign in a VERY unruly class - I was one of the good students and had a legit excuse, but he said he had to treat all the students the same way. He gave me a homework pass for the next assignment by way of apology. Then, once I had a Saturday detention for not going to Career Day, even though I had my Grandmother's permission to stay home.
[Loved someone so much that it made you cry]: I've cried over everyone I've loved. It's how I do it.
---This or that---
[Cold/hot]: Cold (you can always layer on more clothes or blankets, but if you're hot there's only so much you can strip off before you hit skin).
[Blue/red]: Blue
[Rain/snow]: Rain
[Give/receive]: Give
[Wool/cotton]: Cotton
[Rose/daisy]: Daisies.
[Private school/public school]: I went to public school, but I think kids can get a better education out of a private school.
[Chocolate milk/plain milk]: Chocolate
[Celsius/Fahrenheit] : Fahrenheit
[Spring/fall]: Spring
[History/science]: Both!
[Math/English]: English
[Country/rock]: Rock
[Coke/pepsi]: Doesn't matter.
[Cherry coke/vanilla coke]: Creme Soda.
[Love/lust]: Both! Preferably at the same time.
[Sleep/eat]: Eat (my poor metabolism).
---Opposite sex---
[Do you like someone right now]: Lurve, actually (isn't that a movie?).
[Do they know]: He'd better, I tell him often enough!
[What do you look for in the opposite sex]: Good hands, a good attitude, a sense of humor, the ability to laugh at himself, competence, mad skillz, someone who loves excitement but loves just relaxing at home too, honesty, loyalty, a good friend.
---Friends---
[Who do you see most often]: Gee, a couple of weeks ago, it was Heather. Tonight we're going to see Alex and Rachel.
[Who is your most annoying friend]: Uhh... nobody that reads this website. (heh)
[Which one do you wish you saw more often]: Dawn.
[Who do you IM the most these days]: Heather is the only one on my Buddy List, since AOL jacked me over on my other sign-in name and I had to change it. I lost all my buddies!!!

[Take walks in the rain]: Yes!! Even better is seeing an outdoor concert when it's sprinkling.
[Watch tv]: Oh, geez. Every day.
[Talk on the phone]: It depends on my mood. Some days I'm all about curling up on the couch with the phone stuck to my ear for a good hour of gabbing. Other days I'd rather IM.
[Go online]: Gee, what do you think?
[Kiss]: HECK yeah.
[Do freaky things]: Uh... at the advice of my lawyer, I am going to exercise my right to plead the Fifth Amendment.
