    I’m sitting in the Orlando Airport, bored out of my mind. Your questions have saved me this too-early morning.

    A lifetime of OK
    Act locally
    Well, I sought it even though that’s against my better principles. Seems to have worked so far, just the same…
    Definitely Habitat for Humanity
    Peacemaker
    Attempt to immerse myself in current events
    Social critic
    Love people
    Conservative
    Passion
    The world is the same as it always was. We just know more about what’s going on everywhere a whole lot sooner.
    Change is possible
    Motivated by excellence
    One week a month I’m a slave to my moods. The rest of the time fiercely in control. My husband prefers the lunacy and insanity of that one week.
    Order
    Possessed by my recreation
    Details
    Drawn to light–and this time of year Seattle (home) doesn’t have nearly enough for this new transplant from California…

    Once I would’ve gone for the lifetime of OK. Now I’m thinking I’d like a year of perfection.
    Think globally.
    Let it happen.
    PETA.
    Peacemaker.
    Avoid all but a few.
    Social critic.
    About 50/50.
    Progressive.
    Once I would’ve said reason. Now I’m voting passion.
    Worse.
    Change is possible.
    Excellence.
    Fiercely in control, even if it rips me apart.
    Chaos.
    Recreation.
    Light.
