   •What was the best thing that happened to you this weekend?
I wrote & sent out the first draft of my very first foray into fanfiction to my good friends & editors.  I am ecstatic over their initial reviews.

Bald Eagle.  Regal, predatory, & striking.

   •What is your favorite color? List three adjectives to explain your choice.
Royal blue. Primary, vivid, unnatural (meaning not often found in nature).

   •It's a very hot and muggy day. You desperately want something very cool and refreshing to quench your thirst and revitalize your body. What would you drink -- either make your own or store-bought.
Sweet tea.  Homemade or store-bought, doesn't matter as long as it's REAL sweet tea (Southerners, you know what I'm talking about).

   •What do you consider to the most valuable thing you own: when you were a child/teenager/now?
When I was a teen, my drawing folder.  Now?  I have no idea, maybe my Japanese Dragonball manga?  I don't own anything expensive that really matters to me, sentimentally.

   •What's the kindest act you have ever seen done (either to/by you or another)?
I comforted someone whose husband died suddenly by giving her an angel penny that someone had given me.  I have a habit of giving service people (waitresses, etc.) who look like they're having a bad day a nice note & a piece of candy.

I'd like a full-time teaching job with medical benefits.

   •What are you most talented at? What is your worst nightmare today?
I'm talented at many things that don't make me money & aren't practical.  I'm terrified that I'll get stuck in a job that I hate, & end up being so depressed I self-destruct.

   •If you were stranded on a desert island, what three books and three people would you take with you? Why?

I'd take The Fountainhead, by Ayn Rand, because I need an excuse to finish it, & the other two books should logically be a boyscout handbook & a reference book for the native flora & fauna, respectively.  The people I'd take would be Les Stroud (a.k.a.

   •What was your favorite childhood toy?
My Gameboy Color.

Triple Chocolate, because I'm versatile yet consistent.

   •If you were to be on a reality TV show which one would you be on and why?
