Three blog entries so far today, I'm out of control...

“In the context of web logs / ‘blogs / blogging and other kinds of personal web sites it’s some kind of list of questions that you saw somewhere else and you decided to answer the questions. Then someone else sees them and does them and so on and so on.” -thedailymeme.com

Kristin tagged me - so here’s my meme.

1. Make a list of things you can see without getting up : Water bottle, Plato book, planner, and a TON of work to be done.
   
2. What were you like when you were five? : Pretty awesome. :P Actually, I'm not sure, maybe my mom will read this and leave a comment. ;) That was a long time ago!
   
3. What are you wearing now? : Jeans, black cami, gray long sleeve shirt, wool sweater in tan/gray with a little yellow and a black vest.
   
4. What story/book/novel have you read over and over again in your life? : The Red Tent, both series from Laurell K Hamilton... I'm sure there are others. I reread a lot.
   
5. What’s the last thing you read/are currently reading? : I read most of Soldier's Heart by Elisabeth Samat. I'm not going to finish it. The writing is great, but the story doesn't seem to be going anywhere. And a trusted source confirmed for me that it never does. Lame! I also just started reading Chocolate for a Teen's Soul.
   
6. Do you nap a lot? :I wish. I love napping. I always do it when I'm feeling poorly.
   
7. Who was the last person you hugged? : Jake :)
   
8. What’s your current fandom/obsession/addiction? : Photography, my macbook, facebook... Those are the biggies.
   
9. What was the last thing you ate today? : Lunch was refried beans and mexican rice with some roasted broccoli & cauliflower. Yum!
   
10. What was the last thing you said aloud? : It was just a moment ago, but I can't remember exactly! I think it was, "Okay, well if your 8am meeting runs late, I can schedule some time for us to meet later." Talking with my boss.
    
11. What websites do you always visit when you go online? : Gmail, SU email, facebook and a photo chat board. Often add google reader and Pandora at work.
12. What was the last thing you bought? : Breakfast - oatmeal and a banana.
    
13. What are you listening to right now? : Pandora's playing For the First time by Mark Harris.
    
14. What movie are (or were!) you most excited to show your kids? : Never thought about it! If we have a girl, probably the Little Mermaid. I also loved Aladdin and the Lion King.
    
15. If you could have any super power, what would it be? : I think I'd love to have go-go gadget like arms. I HATE not being able to reach things!
    
16. What is your favorite weather, and why? : Warm but not hot. May/June are great months.
    
17. What time do you usually get up? : 6am or so.
    
18. What is your most challenging goal right now? : To finish my Plato questions in the 30 minutes I have before class starts.
    
19. Say something to the person who tagged you : Kristin, thanks for taking over my old job! They're lucky to have you.
    
20. If you could have a house–totally paid for, fully furnished–anywhere in the world, where would you want it to be : Default answer is West Seattle, ideally down on Alki. That may or may not change in the future depending on where Jake ends up for work in a couple of years.
    
21. Favorite vacation spot? : Arizona. I love to see my family and escape my daily life all in one swoop!
    
22. What is your favorite children’s book? : I have this awesome set of books that I got from friends of my grandparents. One is nursery rhymes and then the others are all different. They're BEAUTIFUL. And sitting in the top of the closet in my office until we have kiddos.
23. Name one thing you just can’t resist no matter how bad it is for you : Ice cream.
    
24. What is your favorite article of clothing? : Lately it's been a combo of my knit hat with my wool coat.
