A - Animals/Pets: Beth's dog Laynie.... though last week we had two poodles, Blossom & Lily
B - Best Friends: Manda, Ern, Ally, Tash... oh too many
C - Cohabitants: Beth & Tina
D - Desire(s): to look on the bright side
E - Eye Color: green
F - Favorite Food(s): ugh... do not fill this out when hungry -- right now all I can think about is a piece of iced lemon pound cake from Starbucks... but surely that is not my favourite.
G - Games: Age of Empires lately, Motocross Mania
H - Habit(s): Coffee
I - Interests: Music, books, computers, sewing
J - Job: Oh to have a neat little job description. Executive assistant / legal secretary / travel agent / band babysitter / webmistress / IT helpdesk -- all wrapped up in one 45+ hour-a-week paycheck.
K - Kitchen ... wonder or blunder? I can cook when I feel so inclined. I just have this weird hatred for grocery shopping, so that really limits the cooking options.
L - Languages: English, a very limited amount of Spanish, and a few choice phrases in Dutch, French, and Turkish.
M - Most valued possession (not person/pet): ugh... I tried to think of anything else, but I'm going to have to go with my computer.
N - Name (named after?): Danielle -- mom got the name from a soap opera character
O - Outfit you love: probably whatever I have made most recently... I love long skirts.
P - Pizza toppings: I don't really dig pizza anymore, but I can deal with anything except sausage or pepperoni. Canadian bacon & pineapple is tastey.
Q - Question asked to you the most: "Are you from Iowa?" Yes, I know that I haven't lived there technically in six years or so, but I still have Iowa plates on my car.
R - Relationship: don't have one; don't really want one.
S - Sport: I like to watch hockey or basketball when I care about who is playing.
T - Television show(s): 24, Trading Spaces, The Practice.
U - Unsavory characteristic: I have a tendency to leave shoes all over the house.
V - Video (DVDs count, too): Today I'm going to go with Top Secret -- Val Kilmer classic.
W - Webpage (favorite - not your own): x-entertainment.com... not porn, despite the "x".
X - Xylophone (or other instrument): Piano... and many moons ago, trumpet, organ, handbells
Y - Year born: 1976
Z - Zodiac Sign: Capricorn

I am trying my luck at being one of the beta testers for Age of Mythology -- sign up is this Friday.

Out of the mouths of babes....
Last night I was watching Karl's kids, and Tony's two daughters were there. Such sweet timid girls. The nine-year-old was helping me cut peaches, and she turned to me and said shyly, "You are a beautiful woman. You are very nice." *sigh*
