Why do you blog? The words have to come out or I would explode. Plus I like having friends I can talk to at my convenience in my pajamas.<BR/><BR/>2. What are you currently reading? "The Lathe of Heaven" by Ursula K. Leguinn. AWESOME! Just finished it and haven't picked up another yet.<BR/><BR/>3. What do you do for the pure relaxation of it? Blog, read, get massages, garden, listen to music.<BR/><BR/>4. What's the worst problem you've ever encountered as a blogger? When a crazy person started threatening me.<BR/><BR/>5. How'd you sleep last night? Very well, thanks. You?<BR/><BR/>6. Do you have a pet? If so, what species? Genus is <I>Canis</I>; don't know the species.<BR/><BR/>7. If you could meet one famous person currently living, who would it be? You can say why if you wish; you don't have to. Ya know, I think that if I met someone really famous, I'd not know what to say. I'd get all weird and tongue-tied...just like being back in high school. Yuk. I think I might like to meet Kevin Brockmeier, because he's not so famous yet and I might be able to really talk to him about his writing.<BR/><BR/>8. What's your favorite currently popular song? "Transformer" by Gnarls Barkley.<BR/><BR/>9. What's your favorite (1) everyday food and (2) comfort food?<BR/>PB&J for everyday, and broccoli-cheese soup for comfort.<BR/><BR/>10. What are you going to do for the rest of the day? My day is done. I moderated at a conference this AM, chilled out in the afternoon, and did a lot of cooking this evening. Now I'm blogstrolling after just having written a post that was too long (again). A very swell, quiet evening.<BR/><BR/>P.S. I say toss the painting, unless it has a special meaning to you.

I think they're gone now, but you can never be sure, never let your guard down. That pretty much sucks. What we need here is a Stalker Hit Squad. Anybody who can shoot straight is in. Blogging does require some discipline (no, not that kind) to get us to do it regularly. Every little bit helps.<BR/><BR/>I agree, Lee, blogging is also a good outlet. I mean, who else is going to listen to some of what we have to say? The dogs will, but they're not so good at feedback. It's already mid-Sunday there, isn't it? Enjoy your lamb. I like most fruits, but not lamb.
