1. What's the hardest part about your job?
Handling many and diverse expectations while trying to deliver a quality product. God I sound like a brochure. This is what I wrote to Coffee the other day:

I feel as though I'm trying to herd a million gerbils across a field, and the people I'm depending on to help me are slowly being picked off by snipers. The gerbils are spreading out and I'm trying to get them back together... some are going AWOL ... people are calling me and saying "I need my gerbils by tomorrow, where are they?" ... people are criticizing irrelevant things
like my choice of gerbil prods ...

2. If a color were a flavor, pick a color and tell us what flavor it is.
This is interesting ... usually I associate things the other way (flavours and concepts look like colours sometimes).... it's hard to do this without going to something concrete, like baby pink = kaopectate ... azure = blue freezie ...

3. If a color had a sound, pick a color and tell us what sound it makes.
mmm.... kind of a marshy browny green ... makes a sound like a little kid with a stomachache.

4. What's the last thing that made you blush?
I can't remember ... don't blush often.

5. Politics is subjective and alterable to varying degrees. Where would you say your political ideologies lie?
I NEVER LIE!! LOL ... er, I guess I'm a lefty, if I'm defining myself in relation to GB.

6. Do you get allergies? If so what do you do for them? If not, what's the worst case of allergies you've witnessed?
Yes, I'm allergic to nuts (except almonds). I take an antihistamine if I accidentally eat something. I really should carry an epipen but I don't. My worst experience to date was bad more for the emotional crap ... I had a reaction and was having trouble breathing, and rather than help me find antihistamines (we were at his family's house for Thanksgiving) my ex-husband decided to continue watching TV. Yeah he was great.

7. Do you smoke? What brand?
No, but I used to like Marlboros. Something about the smell makes me all nostalgic. I like cigars but I'm not really "allowed" to smoke these days because of my family's history of cancer. Bleh.

8. Do you drink? What's your favorite drink?
YES ... alcohol, I'm talking about here ... dark beer, red wine, dirty vodka martinis, gin & tonic, scotch.

9. Think back to when you were two or three years old. What was your favorite toy?
Before I could read, I think it was my bear, Koko. After the reading started, I was usually doing the Dr. Seuss thing.

10. Would you consider yourself introverted or extraverted?
INTROVERTED

11. Remember that first kiss? Who was it with, how old were you and was it any good?
Ack! It was with my first boyfriend. I was 16. He was incredibly slobbery, so it was kinda gross. I went out with him again about a year later, and it was better (for him too I'm sure!)

12. And, of course, what was the last thing that made you smile?
Hyakujo's Fox in the limericks thread!!

[Wldchld]

1. What's the hardest part about your job?
Trying to get it off the ground & not making money

2. If a color were a flavor, pick a color and tell us what flavor it is.
Pink would be strawberry


3. If a color had a sound, pick a color and tell us what sound it makes.
Deep green, would sound like the wind through the trees in a forest.

4. What's the last thing that made you blush?
At the pool my son pulled my bathing suit top down to my waist. Free peep show! I think I was redder then any sunburn. Kinda funny now though.

5. Politics is subjective and alterable to varying degrees. Where would you say your political ideologies lie?
I'm not sure

6. Do you get allergies? If so what do you do for them? If not, what's the worst case of allergies you've witnessed?
I'm allergic to wasp & bee stings in a bad way. They put me in the ER. I bet you can guess what I'm scared of now.

7. Do you smoke? What brand?

8. Do you drink? What's your favorite drink?
Yes, let's see I like c.bulldogs, dark beer, wine, and almost all of the sweeter mixed drinks.

9. Think back to when you were two or three years old. What was your favorite toy?
my bright blue peddle car. It was a convertable buick & I thought there nothing cooler, it was big enough I could set my favorite stuffed animals in the car w/ me, Bosco the bear & Blue Bear.

10. Would you consider yourself introverted or extraverted?
Not introverted!!lol

11. Remember that first kiss? Who was it with, how old were you and was it any good? Yes, I was 15 & it was w/ a boy a couple of years older then me. It just didn't measure up to the romance novels I had read so I was a little disapointed.

12. And, of course, what was the last thing that made you smile?
The funny memories this conjored up in my mind.

4. What's the last thing that made you blush? A foot in mouth comment I made at Mom's during Easter dinner.

5. Politics is subjective and alterable to varying degrees. Where would you say your political ideologies lie? I am not politically educated. I am a dreamer. I want a world of peace, and happiness. I want everyone to celebrate their differences and explore their options. I want free education and health care for everyone. If there is a political party where these things are possible...let me know.

6. Do you get allergies? If so what do you do for them? If not, what's the worst case of allergies you've witnessed? No allergies here. I am a nurse so the worst allergic reaction I have witnessed was a bee sting causing death.
