Rules: Leave a comment and I will give you a letter. Then, write 10 things that you love starting with that letter. Post the list in your journal. Give out letters to those who comment in return.
I got the letter "O"
1. Onion rings from Old Man Ankars
2. Outdoors
3. Orgasms! (Give me a break. I'm just embarrassed that I had to resort to it at #3... and actually put off using it until then.)
4. October
5. Old books (the smell specifically)
6. Olive oil (the stuff in a bottle, not the character)
7. Owls
8. Obex
9. Ostriches... they're like flamingos only not as flamboyant!
10. Othello by William Shakespeare
Leave me a comment saying "Resistance is Futile."
• I'll respond by asking you five questions so I can satisfy my curiosity.
• Update your journal with the answers to the questions.
• Include this explanation in the post and offer to ask other people questions.
1. How is married life? Married life is good. We're sort of boring these days since we're both in crunch mode. He's doing NaNoWriMo and I'm doing a variant called National Finish The Semester Month. But it's all good. The craziness won't last forever. Since we're both out of retail, the holidays will be much more relaxed.
2. Where do you see yourself in 15 years? Best case scenario is sitting behind a table stacked with copies of the best selling novel I wrote, pen in hand, giving autographs.
3. What/where is your happy place? Lately, it's my corner of the couch with my fuzzy blanket and my computer. But really... my happy place is tied to smells, so the physical place can be anywhere.
4. Do you have/want pets? I have a pet snake, but I eventually want cats. Getting married totally screwed up the 'old cat lady' ambition I had.
5. (I know you don't want kids but) what are your favorite boy/girl baby names? I actually thought about this, because oddly enough, I'm sometimes a fan of family names if they're interesting. My son would be named William after my father and Charlie's family middle name. The daughter would be Dominica after my great great aunt. We have a photograph of her... she looks like a really interesting person. I've also liked the names Rosemary, Esther, Aiden and Jacob. But sadly, they'll have to go to the cats.
