If you were a parachute, what color would you be?
Shades of blue and green because I am more comfortable in water than on land!
What one movie could you watch over and over and over?
I just love the original 'The Parent Trap'. . . The one with Hayley Mills made in the early 60's. Anytime it's on television, I get so excited!
Early bird or nite owl?
I'm sort of in-between. I stay awake 'til about midnight and generally rise by 8:00 am. Does that make me a nite owl or an early bird?
Favorite quote:
"Any fool can criticize, condemn and complain, but it takes character and self-control to be understanding and forgiving."
What do you do when you're not working?
I love the water, so I try to swim as much as I can in the summer. I also enjoy biking, camping and reading.
Who do people say you look like?
Hmmmm, I used to hear that I looked like Cricket from the Young and the Restless. But, I don't watch the show so, I don't know if she is even still on! I have also been told I look like Laura Dern, Daryl Hannah and Gwyneth Paltrow.
How many pairs of shoes do you own?
Not that many, really. Maybe 25? And that's for summer and winter. When I find shoes I like, I stick with them. But don't ask about how many necklaces I own!
E-mail, instant messenger or phone?
I have been loving instant messenger lately. |
