1.  I still believe in Santa Claus.  And not in that mambi pambi, ‘Santa is a spirit that dwells in us all nonsense.’  I’ve spent 10 years stuffing my kid’s stockings and every Christmas morning I still think/hope/wish I’ll find something I know wasn’t stuck there by me. 

2.  Oddly enough, I don’t believe in Jesus Christ.  One would think with my absolute belief in a fat man who lives with hundreds of elves and travels by magic reindeer, that Christianity wouldn’t be such a leap of faith for me…but it is.  Had to make a change here…not sure what to make of it but Jesus answered a prayer of mine and so I have to change this one to I do believe in Jesus Christ…just not certain where that belief will lead.

 3.  My favorite song is “September” by Earth, Wind, and Fire.

4.   I have five cats living with me; Batman, Shackey, Elizabeth Swann, Belle, and Vinny.

5.  I have two dogs that also live with me:  Mika Hoshi and Kate.

6.  My actual legal first name is Arwen. 

7.  I don’t like chocolate cake.

8.  I love the show Dr. Quinn Medicine Woman.

9.  I’ve completed every Zelda game, except the latest one which I’m working on.

10.  I’m obsessed with my hair.  Am I a short hair, Jamie Lee Curtis sort or am I a long hair Catherine Zeta Jones sort?  What color should it really be?  These questions plague me the way universal mysteries must plague the Dali Lama.

11.  I like Spam.

12.  My favorite element is air.

13.  My favorite numbers are 13 and 3.

14.  I grew up in Rockville, Maryland.

15.  When I was a kid I wanted to be a fairy godmother when I grew up.  Not much has changed.

16.  I don’t like Oprah Winfrey or Bill O’Reilly.

17.  I do like “All My Children”, entirely too much.

18.  I enjoy climbing trees.

19.  I dance around my house to disco music and Hannah Montana songs.  Thankfully my neighbor across the street is blind.  Not so lucky for me, he’s selling his house and it’s unlikely the next person who lives there will also be blind.

20.  I  don’t like surprise parties, for me or for other people. 

21.  If I were a ‘Were’ creature, I think it would be a were-cat (not for how cool they look and move) but because they (well cats, so I’m assuming the ‘Were’ variety as well) sleep 16 hours a day and I would very much like to.  If based on personality, I think I’d be a were-coon.

22.  I like hand washing my floors. 

23.  I adore Will Ferrell.

24.  One of my favorite movies is “Love Actually”.

25.  Another is “The Ghost and Mrs. Muir”.

26.  I have two children, though my mother is dreaming that I will soon have a third.

27.  If I was a student at Hogwart’s (which would require all that to be real and me to be far younger than I am) I would most likely be in House HufflePuff.  I love the part where the sorting hat has a very long poem about the houses and says of Hufflepuff, “…I’ll take the rest.”

28.  I knit and am hoping I’ll get past scarves sometime in the next decade.

29.  I have yet to find a tea that I can stand drinking.  It’s all just stewed weeds to me.

30.  I hate laundry.  I also believe my laundry reproduces in the basement while I sleep.  I want a laundry condom.

31.  My favorite flower is the hydrangea.

32.  I like scrapbooking, but am dismal at it.

33.  If you are what you eat, I’m a Frappucino mixed with mushrooms and green grapes.  And I wonder why I haven’t made any new friends since moving to Montana.

34.  I truly enjoy Yoga. 

35.  I eat cookie dough right out of the tube and haven’t the faintest idea if it actually tastes good when it’s been cooked.

36.  Brownies in a tube are equally good cold and yet again, have no idea how well it cooks up.

37.  I find Ciaran Hinds terribly sexy.

38.  I’m weary of snow.  As my daughter says, “Snow just isn’t special in Montana”.

39.  My favorite fairytale is ‘Snow White and Rose Red’.

40.  My favorite Civil War General is James Longstreet.

41.  My favorite American Revolutionary is Abigail Adams.

42.  I wish I could highlight my hair in such a way, that it looked like I had spent too much time in the moonlight…instead of the standard sunny highlights.

43.  I dream of visiting Ireland.

44.  My favorite color is a pale, silver blue.

45.  When I was 13 I found a really old book about witchcraft that gave a recipe/spell for flying.  I didn’t have any of the ingredients it called for, so I improvised, substituting things that seemed similar.  Which is why I found myself naked, covered with pepper, chamomile tea, and Crisco, hopping around on a broom at the golf course behind the house I grew up in.  Needless to say, it didn’t work.

46.  I regret that I haven’t been as randy as I might have been. 

47.  I don’t believe I’m very flirtatious, at least I don’t feel like a flirt. (Topic stolen from Erica).  These days I tend to feel like a pagan nun(We look like your garden variety nun, except we have horns).

48.  Proud member of the SSS (Secret Spam Society).

49.  One of my favorite books is “A Tree grows in Brooklyn”.

50.  My favorite quote is: “Time is a companion that goes with us on the journey.  Reminding us to cherish every day, because it will never come again.  What we leave behind is not so important as how well we lived”. (Capt. Picard , ‘Generations’).

51.  I’ve dated men and women and find them both equally confusing.  Infact, I tend to confuse myself and thats on good days.

52.  I tend to believe I’m normal. 

53.  I want to learn to play the violin.

54.  I don’t know how to swim.

55.  I like running because it makes me feel like I’m racing with the wind.

56.  I’m a very plain looking person, but just once I would like to look beautiful…or at least pretty.

57.  In highschool I was friends with  Kevin Quinnan (after all these years I can’t recall the spelling!).  When I moved to Montana we lost touch.  I always wonder what became of him.

58.  My maiden name is Bulak.

59.  I graduated from Rockville Highschool.

60.  When I was a teenager I had mowhawk (for a very short time).

61.  My favorite movie of 2006 was “Night in the Museum”.

62.  I could watch “Gettysburg” everday and not tire of it.

63.  I really like to garden and dream of tending a garden I can watch grow, change, mature over years, instead of a few months here and there.

64.  I absolutely love pizza, which expains my thigh issues.

65.  The older I get, the more liberal I find myself becoming.

66.  I prefer baths to showers.  It’s difficult to read in the shower.

67.  I love the smell of grass…the type found in yards. 

68.  The ocean both calls to me and scares me.

69.  One of my new favorite shows is “The Tudors” on Showtime.  Especially since “Rome” is over and done with now.

70.  I love Mexican Food and miss Los Tres Amigos in Lawton, Oklahoma so incredibly much.

71.  I love thunderstorms.

72.  I hate the smell, taste, and texture of bananas.

73.  I like star fruit and green grapes, especially together.

74.  I would love to have a large family, but my husband is never home enough for that.  *l*

75.  I adore holding my imps’ hands.  It’s good to go out in the world with a hand to hold.

76.  I rather like Marie Antoinette.

77.  I hunt ghosts for a hobby.

78.  One of my favorite places in the United States is Virginia City, Montana.

79.  I want a cigarette so bad right now I could scream…and am trying desperately not to substitue that desire with the basket of M&M’s in my kitchen.

80.  Did not give in to the above craving…instead knitted on my second vegan fox.  Soon, I’ll have to join some knitted fox addiction group.  *sigh*

81.  I drive an FJ Cruiser and adore it!

82.  My favorite Star Wars character is Qui Gon (New School), Han Solo (Old School).

83.  My cats and dogs insist on doing yoga with me, thus making it more challenging.  Try doing a downward dog with a cat on your back and a Pomeranian licking your ankles!

84.  My eyes are green.  My last name is pronounced ‘brown eyes’.

85.  My favorite perfumes are made by Chanel.

86.  I had a secret admirer once in my life (turned out to be my friend Dana) and it felt great to get little gifts and know that someone thought I was special.

87.  I adore thunderstorms.

88.  I think cat paw pads are the softest, sweetest little things ever.  A close second are baby toes.

89.  I can’t get this fact out of my mind: That the first hanging in North America was a Puritan who had sex with a wild turkey, as well as other animals.  How does one have sex with a wild turkey?  I hear turkeys are difficult to shoot.  It’s simply too odd.

90.  I also keep having this quote ramble about the forefront of my thoughts:  How much Healthy Choice ice cream can you eat before it’s no longer a healthy choice?

91.  I make candy a lot.  I feel like it’s personal challenge to make it well, because I’ve been told how difficult it is to make most candies from scratch.  My favorite is maple snow candy (which is the easiest…pour maple syrup on fresh snow and lick away).

92.  I’m not a very driven person, I’m happy to amble through life.

93.  My favorite pair of shoes have a cow on them.

94.  My son’s nickname (I made it up when he was a baby) is Lord Bibble-Schniffer.

95.  My daughter has many nicknames, but prefers Princess Sugar Bean.

96.  As a child my nickname was lard ass.  Not very pleasant…at all.  Thankfully my mom didn’t start that one.

97.  I would like a nickname now, but it doesn’t seem right to give yourself one.

98.    I tend to re-name people so they fit better in my universe and expect others to adhere to my changes. 

99.  I don’t like wine.

100.  I truly like my life.

101.  I don’t like the way 98% of people’s feet look.  The exceptions: Rubin (who also makes the best grilled steak I’ve ever eaten) has gorgeous feet and my friend Erica has the nicest feet of any woman I know.  Mine look like fat little pigs hung out to dry.
