What’s on your mind? Friends. I’ve got a few who are being distant… makes me concerned.

What would you be doing now, if you could do anything? It’s a toss between sleeping or playing cards. I really wanted to play cards today.
 
Summarize your current happenings: Sitting at my desk listening to Tom Waits, doing this survey.

What do you have set as your home page? The kids’ school website. They post crap on the front page all the time. 
 
Do you have any obsessions? Jars. I save candle jars and mason jars. I store things in them, I drink from them, etc. In fact I just bought a cuppow. It’s bad.
 
What can you hear right now? John waiting on the world to change, kids in the dining room.
 
What can you see around you? Laundry that needs washed, bills that need paid, a bunch of papers on my desk.
 
What was the best part of your day? Leaving the office. I was so frustrated today.
 
If you could have your own band, what would you call it? Violet Glockenspiel 
 
What have you been doing most this year? Travelling. I spent the first 16 days out of state. So far that’s 70% of this year.
 
What is the most annoying sound to you? Oh man, there are so many.
 
What is the most beautiful sound to you? I love pipe organs.
 
Who inspires you most in life? I dont know. My desire to be better?
 
How do you think people see you? I’m a bitch. I am really black and white and I expect instant gratification a lot. I’m really controlling and OCD. 
 
What was the last thing you watched on TV? Oh gosh. I have NO idea. Been a while…
 
What was the last song you listened to? Tango Maureen
 
When is the last time you went swimming? few years ago

What do you wish would happen tomorrow? I get trained on our new system for the office.
 
Are you procrastinating about anything? Always. Today it’s cleaning my house. I have a clutterfest happening in the living room and dining room. Josh is out of town this weekend so I expect I’ll work on it Friday evening while Shane is here. I clean better when I am talking to someone.
 
Is there anything you wish you were good at? Running, piano, guitar.
 
Would you rather star gaze, or watch clouds? I dont do much of each but I think stars would interest me more
 
Best memory you have with one of your grandparents? My grandpa coming out of the barn riding a bike he’d fixed for us
 
Favorite toy when you were growing up? I wasnt a toy kid – I was always reading or outside. Plus, we didnt have very many so we didnt really worry about it.
 
Does the person you always think about mean a lot to you? Yes, very much.
 
What is your favorite season? Fall
 
What do you like doing most during that season? Hiking

Do you have a favorite jacket or sweater? I wear my work jacket a lot. It’s red with our camp logo and my name embroidered onto it.
 
Where is the closest mirror to you? behind me
 
How are you feeling? Smothered. Shane is coming to stay with me this weekend because we’re working on a project for someone and I am kind of dreading it. We’ve spent so much time together that I feel like I need 4-6months to recooperate. Also, I am feeling a little down because my plans fell through. I am NOT a homebody and I’ve been here a lot lately.

RYN: Is that the book they made into a movie. I think Sissy Spacek was in it. If it was I really liked it. If not I need to read it. Midwifery has always been interesting to me. *Smiles*
