from Friday's Feast

Feast Eighty-One

Appetizer
If you were a color, which color would you be, and why? rich barn red. classic. warm. happy.

Soup
When was the last time you went to the doctor, and what was your reason for going? oh jeez. i really need to make an appointment if i can't remember huh? i think it was a little over 2 years ago...

Salad
What do you collect? snowmen. Christmas angels. snowflakes. icicles. gingerbread men. jingle bells. hmmm...apparently only things to do with winter/Christmas lol...

Main Course
What were you like in high school? Name one thing you miss and one thing you don't miss about those days. (If you're still there, imagine how you'll remember it in the future.) quiet. shy. band geek. smart. (before you think i'm conceited, i graduated 12th in my class without ever cracking a book--imagine if i had actualy applied myself!) i miss some of the people & the good times we used to have wheni really had no clue what the real world was all about. i don't miss the rest of it: the homework, the drama, the pettiness...all that teenage highschool angst.

Dessert
Pretend you're standing in front of your home, with your back towards your home. Describe the view - what can you see? Trees? Cars? A zoo? Wal-Mart? a crane (the construction kind, although you might also see the bird kind too). dumpsters. empty cleared lots. houses in various stage of construction. palm trees. an orange grove. the main road of my community that comes in off the street. the sign that says the name of my section of the community (which i am not sharing for internet security reasons ;-) can't be too liberal with my personal info).
