Useless questions and answers for you to read.

Found this on my new friend Ronni's blog and thought it was a fun set of questions... you may not agree, but it's my blog.

1. IF YOU COULD BUILD A SECOND HOUSE ANYWHERE, WHERE WOULD IT BE? Manzanita, Oregon. We rent a beach house there every summer. I love the quaint atmosphere of this tiny coastal town and would love to spend weekends there regularly. Or even the whole summer... wouldn't that be wonderful?

2.. WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE ARTICLE OF CLOTHING? My Levi's and my slippers.

3. THE LAST CD YOU BOUGHT? I bought four new ones all at once recently. Sara Groves, Nicole Nordeman, Five for Fighting, and Ginny Owens.

4. WHAT TIME DO YOU WAKE UP IN THE MORNING? Generally around 6:30 or 7:00.

5. WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE KITCHEN APPLIANCE? My new Jenn-Air refrigerator. LOVE LOVE LOVE it. The freezer on the bottom is the best thing in the world - and the french doors? So cool. I even love the handles. And the floating glass front that prohibits the accumulation of magnets... so wonderful!

6. IF YOU COULD PLAY AN INSTRUMENT, WHAT WOULD IT BE? I play piano and years ago could play clarinet, flute, and oboe. I would LOVE to learn how to play the guitar.

7. WHICH DO YOU PREFER, SPORTS CAR OR SUV? I love my SUV. Sports cars are too small.

8. DO YOU BELIEVE IN LIFE AFTER DEATH? Absolutely. And I can't wait to get there.

9. FAVORITE CHILDREN’S BOOK? The Monster at the End of This Book (I know, great literature...)

10. WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE SEASON? Spring. But fall runs a very close second.

11. WHAT’S IN THE TRUNK OF YOUR CAR? Nothing. I don't have a trunk.

12. WHICH DO YOU PREFER, SUSHI OR HAMBURGER? I've never had sushi. I don't really like hamburger, but will eat it.

13. WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE FLOWER? Tulips. Pink ones. I love how they curve over the side of a vase... so pretty.

14. WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE ICE CREAM? Chocolate Chip Mint

15. POPCORN? Oh my goodness - I LOVE popcorn. I usually try to be good and have the 94% fat free, but I really love it popped in my WhirlyPop with lots of butter.

16. WHAT’S YOUR FAVORITE COLOR? Green - all shades.

17. WHAT KIND OF CAR DO YOU DRIVE? 2003 Chevy Trailblazer EXT.

18. FAVORITE SANDWICH? A reuben with lots of sauce. But I also really love BLTs.

19. HOW MANY PETS DO YOU HAVE? 2 - A boxer named Gracie and a fish named Billy Bob.

20. WHERE WERE YOU BORN? Astoria, Oregon

21. FAVORITE SPORT TO WATCH? Tennis. My husband has brainwashed me.

22. FAVORITE TV SHOW? Right now, it's Grey's Anatomy.

23. FAVORITE MOVIE? The Sound of Music. Other movies may come and go but I will never get tired of watching Captain Von Trapp and Maria fall in love.

    Let's see: Reubens and tulips are also my favorites. You Carsons must have popcorn encoded into your DNA. And I would also build a second house at the beach. You already KNOW I'm learning guitar! Isn't it fun to find things in common? And with such fabulous people? =o) I hope you're having a great week, Cath.

It came out of the faucet that way.

It's been months since I've had a "Getting to Know You Wednesday." Life's been a little crazy. So today, when life is a little bit calm and I've got the least chaotic week I've had for ages, I thought I'd jump back in. So today, if you leave me a comment telling me your most favorite-ist movie line ever, I'll enter you in a drawing for your very own copy of Josh Groban's new Christmas CD - Noel . It's a good one, folks. Classic holiday music from such a wonderful vocalist... you'll like it, I promise. I just want one movie line. Not your three favorite... not a paragraph. Just one line. The one you find yourself repeating. The one that makes you laugh every time. Your very favorite movie line of all time. And if you're the first person to name the movie my title is from, you'll get an extra entry in the drawing. Now, let's hear it.

30,000? For real?

So, if you scroll down to the bottom of this here blog, you'll see that I'm probably just a day or two from reaching 30,000 hits. That's just freaky. And in just under 2 years. (I didn't add the counter until after I'd been blogging for several months...) So in honor of almost reaching that milestone, this weeks 'getting to know you Wednesday' question is this: What would you do if you won $30,000? I like this question, because it's not an overwhelming number, and therefore not brain-freeze inducing. It's big enough to be able to accomplish some nice little projects around the house, but not so large that you have to worry about your third cousins from the Ozarks showing up on your doorstep looking for cash so they can put veneers on their teeth. Answer my question this week and you'll be entered in a drawing for 30 special little trinkets in a lovely little goody box. (And when I say trinkets, I mean trinkets. We're talking 30 little lovelie

Are you ready for this?

How did it get to be Wednesday? Seriously. There aren't enough hours in the day - even when you're up at 2:00 am. And no - I didn't get up at 2:00 this morning. I slept all the way until 5:00! Anywho - I decided I needed something new to blog. Something to shake you all out of your 'thoughts from the deep recesses' stupor. Something to get your blood pumping and your fingers tingling. Something to inspire long and meaningful comments. From you. My beloved readers. It's a new weekly Thoughts From the Deep Recesses feature. It's "Getting to Know you Wednesday" Now this could either be lots of fun, or it could just totally flop, and I could go to bed crying because my blog readers are a bunch of takers who only come here to read and never interact. Like a piece of fresh fruit, you squeeze the juice out of my hard-written and well thought out posts and then you toss them aside, wandering on to the next blog with a simple click of your mouse.
