What are your neighbors like? (The ones you live near or next to, not the ones in your Vox neighborhood!)
They're actually quite friendly and likable. Those across the street always greet with a smile and wave. If I'm not home they will greet the UPS/FedEx driver and sign for my packages. This is a very nice and welcome touch indeed.
What do you do EVERY day to take care of the earth's environment? What could you do more of?
I throw items into trash bins instead of wherever I'm at the moment. I use recyclable plates, cups, napkins, etc. and recycle.
What one object/thing would you take if your house were on fire?
My notebook computers and iPod. If I can carry more electronics then that's what I'm saving. Of course, these are inanimate objects. Naturally family (including Nobuku) would come first.
How often do you call your parents? I talk to my mom about every other day for an average of 20 minutes up to an hour. I know I'm fortunate to have my mother to call.
When was the last time you laughed so hard you cried?
Submitted by Maraschino.
I know there have been recent ones but the first one that comes to mind:
We're in the mountains enjoying a delicious lunch on a very cold, windy day. Boo asks my mom to snap a photo of us with my sis. Boo instructs mom to focus on the LCD screen to know when to snap the photo. Mom continues looking through the viewfinder and wonders why she can't see a thing.
We laughed so hard that we had to rest before finishing our lunch.
What aspect of your personality could use a little work? My patience when listening to someone who's done the opposite of what was advised and made a huge mess of things. I need to fight from vocalizing "I told you so".
What is the worst date you've ever been on?
I spent the day at the beach with a really good friend. We talked and laughed. People watched. Brought a picnic lunch and just had a fantastic time. Then I was thanked for "making this such a terrific a date". This was a total turn off for me because I thought of us as only friends and nothing more - ever.
What's the biggest leap of faith you've ever had to take?
I did something I knew was wrong and could get into a lot of legal trouble for. I was young and felt like the world was my oyster and I was invincible and untouchable. Of course, I got into legal trouble and I prayed to God like I hadn't prayed to Him in years and I felt like everything would work out okay.
It did and I kept my promise to never do anything illegal again.
What compliment are you most often given? I am a very good listener and trustworthy. I don't divulge what's been confided.
What's the best thing about today?
The work day will soon end and I can go to my refuge...home. This dumb ass manager is making me nuts this week!
