stolen from the incomparable miss syd:

five (extremely trivial) details about you:
1) I had surgery on my toes when I was about 12, for ingrown toenails. Now, neither of my big toenails grows much, and they look kind of weird.
2) I hate patchouli as a scent. (I left this one b/c I agree 1,000,000%, which is a lot)
3) I will only (and I do mean only) drink Pepsi, from the fountain, in a Styrofoam cup, with lots of ice. I don’t drink it out of a can or bottle or any other type of cup, etc. I know that Styrofoam is bad for the environment, but my addiction to Pepsi is important to me. I try to re-use the cup as much as possible.
4) When I was little (like 7) I collected roly polys (sometimes known as potato bugs) in big glass jars. I thought they were the cutest things ever.
5) I am now, if not terrified, then highly creepi-fied by any and all bugs.
 
five details about your appearance right now:
1) My ring is huge. 🙂
2) Everything I’m wearing, save for a barely seen red cami, is black. I dig black as much as syd! 🙂
3) I desperately need to get my nails and eyebrows done soon. If not, I’ll be taken for a scary uni-browed witch woman. 🙁
4)I shaved for the first time in 3 weeks the night before last in preparation for wearing skirts a few times this week (it was supposed to be nice), but, like always, I get rushed and fall back on my black slacks for comfort’s sake.
5) I need a new pair of dress black shoes. I keep wearing the same flats every day b/c they are the only black closed toed shoes I have, but they aren’t very flattering with the majority of what I own. 🙁
 
five things that make you happy:
1) coffee
2) Christmas decorations
3) Spain
4) my kiddos
5) hugs (from aforementioned kiddos or my maa-an)

five things that impress you:
1) truth
2) passion (not just the soap opera kind!)
3) listening
4) forgiveness
5) true intelligence (this doesn’t mean knowledge)
 
five things that don’t impress you:
1) fashion
2) an inability to forgive AND forget
3) fundamentalist ANYthing
4) superiority complexes
5) commercial coffee-shops with half-trained teenage employees who don’t know their porta-filter from a hole in the ground (I realize its not their fault, but come on – I NEED real coffee sometimes!)

five things you can’t live without:
1) coffee</font>
2) shoes
3) the people who enhance my life so well that I’m unsure what would be left of it without them.
4) good conversation
5) other people’s forgiveness. 🙂
