    I stole another list
    I stole this from WWFD. Because I love doing lists.


    10 FAVORITES

    Favorite Color: brown. chocolate or espresso.
    Favorite Food: steak, rare.
    Favorite Month: October, when the leaves are changing and the air is getting cooler.
    Favorite Song: Right now? It's the End of the World As We Know It, by R.E.M., b/c when my kids act like, well, life is so unfair, I sing that to them. They *are* in fact now old enough to tell me that I sound like crap when I sing.
    Favorite Movie: Right now? Hitchiker's Guide to the Galaxy. Very clever.
    Favorite Sport: um, darts? Is that a sport? I got a bullseye a few weeks ago.
    Favorite Season: Fall
    Favorite Day of the week: Saturday. B/c I can sleep.
    Favorite Ice Cream Flavor: Ben and Jerry -- Vanilla Caramel Fudge
    Favorite Time of Day: 9:00: When the kids go to bed and I can eat the above-listed answer in peace (sort of).

    9 CURRENTS

    Current Mood: Stressed/anxious
    Current Taste: huh? I am sipping on red wine, so, that taste is the most recent.
    Current Clothes: khakis and my fave brown longsleeve tshirt.
    Current Desktop: A collage of pictures of my wonderful daughters and beloved
    Current Toenail Color: This mauve color - but it's a splattered look - meaning I painted them 4 months ago - and never refreshed or removed. But I'm wearing socks ... so that's good.
    Current Time: 6:43
    Current Surroundings: a cozy living room, with my beloved cooking yummy food in the adjacent kitchen, listening to some sort of .... blues music (he clarified - it's *Chicago* blues - Jr. Wells and Buddy Guy), and one child drawing next to me, and the other coming to ask if she can print graph paper. Oh yeah - and my take-home exams are in the other room.
    Current Thoughts: Should I be trying to write my Family Law exam right now? Have I screwed myself, by leaving only really one day (plus a wee bit more time) for each exam? Am I gonna mess with my grades?


    8 FIRSTS

    First Best Friend: Bridget.
    First Kiss: 8th grade, with a boy named Brady, at a party.
    First Screen Name: something to do with my old married name.
    First Pet: Butterscotch, the rabbit.
    First Piercing: Earlobes, at a tupperware party with my mom, when i was 8.
    First Crush: Joe Fini. I was in 3rd grade.
    First CD: I just cannot remember. I had so many tapes before I went to CD's, and I just don't even remember when CD's came on the picture for me. How old was I? What was I listening to then? What did I play them on? I just don't know.

    7 LASTS

    Last Cigarette: I've never smoked a cigarette.
    Last Drink: Glass of red wine - right now.
    Last Car Ride: Last Sunday I got a ride to a potluck for a class.
    Last Kiss: This afternoon, in my kitchen.
    Last Movie Seen: I watched the Hunchback of Notre Dame last night, but I was working at the same time, and the kids just wanted me in the room. Before that - The Vanishing - an older German movie. I have liked most German movies that I've seen.
    Last Phone Call: The boy who is taking over my Class That I am Teaching while I am working this Winter called last night. Oh! My beloved called me this a.m.
    Last CD Played: Since I now have an iPod, that's a toughie. I listened to a book on CD last night - Fury, by Salman Rushdie. Oh, and that Chicago Blues thing is on right now. It's nice.
