Friday Fill-In

1. When I'm angry, I cry, which only serves to make me even more angry.

2. The first time I set foot in Florida I also happened to be moving here.

3. I was born in 1976.

4. My favorite Disney movie is "Sleeping Beauty".

5 I laughed so hard when R.P. turned his back on Daniel because he was mad.

Just the facts, ma'am

1. Where were you last night? in California & then airborne

2. Did you speak with anyone? several people. Nichole & Daniel. the woman at the airline check-in desk. the man in the seat next to me who also happened to live in Connecticut before moving to Florida.

3. What were you wearing? track pants, a 3/4 sleeve t-shirt, sneakers & a track jacket

4. What did you eat or drink? i didn't have anything to eat or drink last night past dinnertime. i was asleep when they came by with beverages & snack boxes.

5. Can anyone verify your whereabouts from midnight to 5am? yep. which time zone though? Eastern time i was at LAX & then on a plane heading back to Florida--so that would mean that Nichole & Daniel, the woman at the check-in counter & United Airlines can all verify my whereabouts. Pacific time i was 90 minutes into my flight & then driving to work after i landed -- i would say the man in the seat next to me & the toll collectors i paid could verify where i was.

Its all local

1. The time: 11:50 pm & i should be in bed but i am running on adrenaline

2. The weather: freaking *cold*, it's 48*. brrr!

3. The big news story: right now? some prison in the Tampa area is on lockdown tonight but i don't know why because i am concentrating on this.

4. Your favorite hangout: Disney. or Nichole & Daniel's. =) oh wait. that isn't local... oh well. too bad. still a favorite!

5. The must-have accessory: beats the hell out of me! i don't accessorize!
