glacier_kittyWhen did you last...
1. scrounge for change (couch, ashtray, etc) to make a purchase? Hmmm..maybe a month or two ago?
2. visit a dentist? The beginning of the month..so glad the extraction site is healed now!
3. make a needed change to your life? *shrugs*
4. decide on a complete menu well in advance of the evening meal? I don't cook, but I knew what I was going to eat last night (Indian food leftovers), if that counts
5. spend part of the day (other than daily hygiene) totally/mostly naked? Probably when I was a kid
This was Curti's face when I wouldn't give him some red velvet cake:
Poor kitty, no one ever feeds you! :P I let him lick the spoon when I was done though haha. His face is so expressive!
Fairbanks hasn't recorded a temperature above freezing since October 31st! Even when it got warmer and snowed it was around 0. Usually we get a Chinook and the temperature rises significantly (one year it was -40, the next day it was 40 above!), but that didn't really happen this winter. Definitely unusual! It's supposed to get around 32 in the next few days, so I don't think we'll quite beat the all-time record of 158..still impressive though lol
We got in SO many donations this week at work..yesterday someone donated 1200 or so comic books!! A little overwhelming, but it's fun to see what people donate. So glad the bookstore is thriving again!
21. What sort of adventures do you dream of going on? Going to Antarctica (I even want to experience the craziness of the Drake Passage haha), seeing volcanoes and glaciers in Iceland, going to Powell's Books, etc
22. Is there anything about yourself that you want to change? It would be cool to lose weight, but I love food too much haha. I should probably do more housework, but a lot of the time I don't have the spoons for it lol
23. Write about a recent dream that you've had: I have a lot of dreams that take place on the beach, and I'm always worried about the current sucking me out to sea..sometimes I'll grab on to the sand. Maybe that means I'm scared of losing control?
24. Write about your favorite place to eat as a family: Chena's Alaskan Grill (for my birthday!), Olive Garden, Bahn Thai, East Ramp Pizza..yum!
25. How does your family usually celebrate birthdays? We go out to eat and have cake or some other dessert
26. How do you feel about motherhood? Not for me, unless being a cat mom counts haha. You wouldn't have much free time with kids, and I definitely need alone time after work. It's nice to see parents who enjoy being with their kids though :)
27. Write down something funny that's happened this last week: Lucie brought over donut holes, and I told a volunteer "you can eat like 4 and that'll be like eating one donut!" She was like "oh good, I needed to hear that!" It was funnier than it sounds here lol
1. What was the last thing you talked about with your mother?
2. What is your favorite color, and why?
3. When was the last time you did something reckless?

7. Describe a moment from today that you want to remember always
8. What are your favorite drinks?
9. What do you like to wear to bed?
10. What do you remember about your primary/elementary school days?

13. Is there anything weighing on your heart right now?
14. Write about a grandparent with whom you connected
