1. Now that the weather (in America, that is) is getting nice and warm, what have you been looking forward to doing the most?
Um. Staying indoors and staying cool. Although I was raised in desert clime, I can;t stand the heat. I much prefer the cold.
2. On Easter, I had to run around all day visiting family. It turned what was supposed to be a special day and turned me into one big stress-ball. Do you enjoy spending time with your family (parents, siblings, etc.) or do you prefer to see them now and then?
Absence DOES make the heart grow fonder. And that is all I will say.
3. Did your parents play along with the whole "Easter Bunny" legend? Did you eventually figure it out or did someone tell you? How did that make you feel?
No. Never dealt with that myth, although we did eat several saccharine items in the shape of bunnies.
4. This isn't necessarily a religious question (although it certainly can be if you'd like), but what does "Easter" mean to you personally?
The raping of a pagan celebration by a patriarchal church system that is more interested in real estate than the saving of souls. LOL. Means nothing really. Just another sign of how confused people are about religious celebratiosn and their true meaning.
5. When I was a kid, we didn't have plastic Easter Eggs (except for those that came with Mom's L'eggs pantyhose), so we always hid real eggs. One Easter I remember I threw away a broken egg in my bedroom trash can and it took me weeks before I realized why my room smelled like something died in there. Do you have any funny or memorable Easter stories?
Hmmm. Nope. Nothing.
6. I currently watch way, way too many TV shows. In fact, I feel some relief that some are being cancelled or are ending because I just can't give any of them up. Is there anything you do too much of and just can't stop?
Sitting in front of my computer and just staring aimlessly. I do have a problem with staying up late nowadays and watching mdinless crap on TV.
7. Long ago, I took a leadership seminar. At one point the leader gave his philosphy on life: the three things that matter most in life are "your family, your religion and your job, and what they mean to you." Would you agree? What are the three things that matter most in life?
No, I would not agree. I think the three things are highly individualized. Because those are not the three that matter most in my life. I think the three that matter most are happiness, respect, and honesty. And that is just how it is.
BONUS: Were you just being kind, or am I losing my mind?
Ok, someone has been listening to Sondheim's Follies. You are NOT losing your mind, I really am being kind.
