Found this over at Princess Aurora's who got it at Dan 's journal...
I might as well just do it.. Nothing better to do here at work.. (hee hee hee..)
1. When you looked at yourself in the mirror today, what was the first thing you thought?
"I look like hell. I want to go back to bed!"
2. How much cash do you have on you?
A dollar in change. I'm not kidding.
3. What’s a word that rhymes with DOOR?
Floor!
4. Favorite planet?
Earth; it's where I live, and where I want to stay.. And then there is Pluto.
5. Who is the 4th person on your missed call list on your cell phone?
My son, wondering why I didn't pick up the call. It's still on silent mode.
I don't really have a favorite.. I'm still trying to figure out how to get it off silent mode.
7. What shirt are you wearing?
My red, multicolored, flowered blouse that ties up in a little bow in the front. I'm wearing it with my red cordoroy jacket shirt, and my beige fleece vest.. It's soooo cold here...
I'm a mom. Is that a label?
Labels? I got these shoes from Chadwicks. They aren't fancy but they are warm and comfie.
10. Bright or Dark Room?
Depends where I am. Generally I like darken rooms--everything/everybody looks better. I went to the Apple Store not too long ago, and it was so bright, I thought I was going to go blind.
11. What do you think about the person who took this survey before you?
Aurora is cool; happy woman, proud wife and mom. We could definately hang out one day. :)
12. What does your watch look like?
I don't wear watches.
13. What were you doing at midnight last night?
I fell asleep watching the Disney Channel in my youngest son's room. I eventually woke up, turned off the T.V. and staggered into my bed with hubby.
I don't do text messages. Did I mention that I still have to change the silent mode on my phone?
From my house, about 1/2 a mile away. From work there is one just down the street. I wouldn't recommend going there however. It is the hub of criminal activity in this town.
16. What’s a word that you say a lot?
"Oh well.." or "Lovely".. And then there is "Sh t".
Husband man :)
18. Last furry thing you touched?
The cat.
None. I've been feeling really well lately.
20. How many rolls of film do you need developed?
None. I have gone digital!
21. Favorite age you have been so far?
33--The year I claimed my life back.
Um.. Don't have any.
At work it's a picture from Quarto Ribeiras---an oceanfront scene from the island of Terceira, in the Azores. At home, it's that island with the three palm trees.. Yes, I like islands.
"Eat cookies!!"
Hand me the money. If I flew, they would find me on radar, and probably shoot me down.
26. Do you like someone?
You mean, like, like, like someone, or just like?
27. The last song you listened to?
I'm listening to the radio right now, "Save The Last Dance For Me" by Michael Buble.
28. What time of day were you born?
12:10 am, April 4th
Four. For some reason this number always comes up in my life in weird ways..
30. Where did you live in 1997?
Watsonville, California.
31. Are you jealous of anyone?
No.
32. Is anyone jealous of you?
I sincerely hope not! Jealousy is hurtful--I don't want to be the subject of such bitterness.
33. Where were you when 9/11 happened?
In my condo, in Capitola, California--getting dressed for work.
I get mad, sulk, and leave.
Yes. I'm known for it; but, sometimes I'm taken for granted because of it.
36. If you had to get a tattoo, where would it be?
I don't do tattoos. But if I HAD to get one, it would be on my butt. One big rose on each cheek, just like CHER. Perhaps it would make my butt look smaller.
Portuguese. I speak it well enough, but, it would be nice to be perfectly fluent.
Yes, I did it three years ago, and I would do it again.
Yes.
40. What’s your life motto?
Work to live, not live to work!
41. Name three things that you have on you at all times?
My keys, my purse, and my phone-but I might as well not have the cell phone because I can't hear the damn thing ring. Can SOMEONE please take the silent mode off for me?!?!!
42. What’s your favourite town/city?
My hometown, Santa Cruz, California. It's a weird place--I feel somewhat normal here.
My coffee this morning.
44. When was the last time you wrote a letter to someone on paper and mailed it?
Hmm... I think it was to my mother-inlaw, sometime this year.
No; I wouldn't know where to start.
My first crush? I heard he was a mechanic working about a mile away from my work. I never bothered to look for him. I called him a few years ago for our high school reunion, but he was a no show.
47. Howfar back do you know about your ancestry?
According to my mother, her great, great, great grandparents were all born in the Azores, except one great grandmother that was born in Brazil--but her parents of course were born in the Azores. A cousin on my father's side told us that my father's relatives were once servants of the King and Queen of Portugal who were sent to the Azores to help govern the land after they were first discovered. Oh, and we are also related to Christopher Columbus--but again, who isn't?!
Fancy? Hmm.. I wore a black wrap dress for Christmas.
I have a corn on my second to the end toe on my left foot. It hurts.
Yes, but I don't regret it. I've learned to appreciate the love of my life so much more now.

Am I the only person who would choose flying ability over a million bucks? Of course, now that you bring up that radar/shoot down thing, well, I may have to rethink my next flight.
#8 is both a label and a Gift!--Cin
I love the quote from Mother Teresa. As for the silent mode, grab your son, the teen, and have him do it for you, I am sure that he will know how!
Thanks for the compliments too, I am blushing! You are right, we could definitely hang and have some fun!
be well,
Dawn
Hey Julie .... I have that same piece of writing by Mother Theresa hanging right in front of me, over my computer ! I love it, and have referred to it many times, when I felt that life wasn't treating me fairly. It's a great reminder to put things in perspective, isn't it? I'm hoping that 2007 is filled with love and happiness for you. Enjoy ! Tina
