Kim, over at A Knitted Frenzy sent me these questions. If you want 5 questions of your own, from me (but have to be prepared to answer them!), leave a comment...
1. If you could be an animal in the world, what would you be an why?
I think I'd be a whale. They're beautiful, gentle and intelligent. Things I strive to be.
2. What does your favorite food remind you of?(memories, feelings, etc.)
Hmmm... I'd say black licorice reminds me of my dad. He and I are the only ones in the family who like it, and it reminds me of him. My sister and I would each get a quarter for the penny candy store and I'd get a lot of black licorice- the other bonus was not many people liked it, so I didn't have to share!
3. Where would you escape to for a month if money, work, etc. were no object?
This one is really hard! There are SO many places I'd like to visit- I'd probably go someplace like Asia or Africa, and travel and stay in nice places (ie, running water), and see as much of the area as I could- it's so expensive to fly to these places!
4. Are you a city girl? Small town? Mountains? Why?
Not a city girl. I grew up on Cape Cod, so I'd always need to be near a sea, although I could easily live in the English countryside, or on an island in Maine... I like small towns, villages, etc.
5. If your house were on fire, what five things would you grab immediately (family members, animals are a given)?
1. Adam's ashes (does that count as a family member? Ha ha- I know, morbid sense of humor!)
2. Jewelry box- not full of valuables, but sentimental stuff, (Ad's wedding ring, grandmother's bracelet, etc...)
3. Stuffed raccoon- I've had it since I was a baby and still sleep with it!
4. Portable hard drive (has all my photos backed up on it)
5. Small filing cabinet (I should get a safe deposit box for this shit, but it has stuff that would be a serious pain in the ass to lose- birth, marriage and death certificates, mortgage and car deeds, etc...)

Technically, I guess you could say his ashes are a family member...but yeah, I see the humor in that, too =)
I totally agree with the last one, too. Things like a social security card, birth cert, other things like that are just so necessary for all the important "technical" things in life. Not having them would make things really tough!
I've been to Cape Cod exactly once (even though we live pretty darn close), and it's beautiful. I want to go back there again.
For the last one... it's always good to keep documents in a safe or safe deposit box. That way, the originals don't get destroyed if the house burns down.
