2. WERE YOU NAMED AFTER ANYONE? My middle name, as well as both of my sisters, is in honor of my Aunt.
3. WHEN DID YOU LAST CRY? This happens so frequently, I don't remember... last week? Watching TV.

5. WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE LUNCHMEAT? Hmmm... don't really have a favorite.
6. IF YOU WERE ANOTHER PERSON WOULD YOU BE FRIENDS WITH YOU? I'm not sure. I can be difficult - especially to get to know. And I think I may be annoying in person. (at least occasionally)
7. DO YOU HAVE A JOURNAL?only my rather neglected blog
8. DO YOU STILL HAVE YOUR TONSILS? yep
9. WOULD YOU BUNGEE JUMP? GOD NO! I'm terrified of falling.

13. WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE ICE CREAM FLAVOR? Hmmm... tossup between Kemps Toasted Almond Fudge and Ben and Jerry's Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough.
14. SHOE SIZE?. 10.
5. RED OR PINK? Red. Always. When I was little, we moved to a new house and I picked my room based on a red light that was in there. However, the light went away with the former owners...(sniff)
16. WHAT IS THE LEAST FAVORITE THING ABOUT YOURSELF? my temper
17. WHO DO YOU MISS THE MOST? Thats tough. I miss people for so many reasons - but today, I'd have to say my Grandpa. He and I shared a birthday...
18. DO YOU WANT EVERYONE TO SEND THIS BACK TO YOU? Why not?

21. WHAT ARE YOU LISTENING TO RIGHT NOW? Office noise.
22. IF YOU WERE A CRAYON, WHAT COLOR WOULD YOU BE? Purple!!
23. FAVORITE SMELL? Ah, this one is strange. In my hometown, the elevators at the library had a distinctive smell. (They still do, far as I know - something about the combo of the elevator mechanics and the cleaning solutions used). It still means books, reading, comfort to me...
24. WHO WAS THE LAST PERSON YOU TALKED TO ON THE PHONE? Someone for work...

37. FAVORITE DESSERT? That I can get? Beingets at the Po' House in San Jose CA. That I can't get? There used to be this style of cake mix that you made in a special pan, one variety was something like Chocolate Truffle Mousse cake... you baked the cake (chocolate), then put the truffle mousse (provided) in the depression the cake pan made, and then sprinkled on the almonds.... yum. I think they stopped making this when I was in High School.
