1) Grab the book nearest to you, turn to page 18, find line 4. Write down what it says:
“thing soft, in noticing the one small, black bird who sings every”

2) Stretch your left arm out as far as you can. What do you touch first?
A dining chair with clothes draped over it.

3) What is the last thing you watched on TV?
A movie with Dennis Hopper I don’t know the title of yet involving magic and witch hunts in what looked like the 1950s. His name was Lovecraft (initials H. P.); it was brilliantly fun and I hope I can find out what it was called. Edit: “Witch Hunt” (thanks, Mia Musement!)

4) WITHOUT LOOKING, guess what the time is.
7:45 p.m.

5) Now look at the clock, what is the actual time?
7:48 p.m.

6) With the exception of the computer, what can you hear?
Popcorn popping in the microwave; a tv on the Westerns channel in the living room.

7:18, getting off the bus.

8) Before you came to this website, what did you look at?
My email site crawling open.

A dark rose Provincetown sweatshirt over a fuzzy black mock turtleneck shirt, black wide legged pants, appropriate undergarments :D, socks and black Reeboks; glasses, a watch, a necklace.

Probably.

While chatting with Folláin.

I live in Manhattan; what do you think? And anyway, define “weird” …

15) If you became a multi-millionaire overnight, what would you buy first?
Two homes, one in the tri-state area and one on the other side of the ocean.

16) Reveal something that no-one knows about you.
If I told you then it wouldn’t be an answer to this question anymore now would it? (Okay, that answer was already here, but it’s so good I’m going to just keep it.)

17) If you could change one thing about the world, regardless of guilt or politics, what would you do?
With all due respect to the Beatitudes, the meek wouldn’t have to inherit the Earth, as I would have the kindest and gentlest people rule the world and have all the best homes and best land and worldly goods. Anyone self-serving, cruel or out for only him/herself would be given menial tasks to perform for a minimum wage (which since only the kindest and gentlest people would be running the world might just be livable) or put on the dole (which would be run by people of the same kind as are on it).

A frame with pictures of my children.
