    Bears
    Scorcese
    Firm matress
    Outwardly patient - inwardly either tapping or daydreaming
    No tea
    More of a listener
    Preferably learn by reading a book, but mostly these days trial and error over taking a class
    Fried (God help me and my poor arteries)
    Either is fine - I like the space and quiet of a house, but I hate yard work.
    Thriller
    Romance
    Asteroids!
    Sheep
    Travel mug
    French doors
    Tiny turtle
    Have carpet - would love hardwoods
    Stairs
    Radio until I become frustrated with nothing being on, then CD
    Diane Sawyer. Most definitely. I think she is the epitome of class.
    (Also, I love your new photo!)

    Elevator - there are fun buttons (”beetun!”) for my daughter to press.

    CD

    Don’t know.

    11. How about a romantic comedy?
    12. Got them both on my X-box arcade game! SO fun!
    13. Ugh, I had sheep when I was little. They were not fun to care for. But they do provide all that wool so I will go with them.

    Bears. If Peyton gets his ring, I quit.

    Martin Scorcese - so deliciously violent

    Soft mattress

    Patient (i usually have a book)

    Both. I like hot tea before bed, but iced tea in the summer.

    Both. At the right times.

    Depends. I like school, but I do try stuff without knowing what I’m doing.

    Baked.

    House

    Thrillers. WAY more thinking involved.

    Comedy.

    Pac Man

    Mountain goat?

    Heavy-duty travel mug from Starbucks with the carabiner.

    What about Dutch doors?

    Hardwood with area rugs.

    Elevator for more than 5 floors

    mostly radio, even though I have iPod connector cables.

    Katie belongs on AM news. I like Barbara Walters. But since I have to pick, I’ll go with Diane Sawyer.
