Re: Who were you in High School?

I hung out with the same friends that I'd known since Kindergarten, with the exception of a few that we picked up in junior high. We were all in the Honors and Advanced Placement classes, so I guess I could be classified as a smart girl. I was also terribly shy, so most people who weren't in my circle only knew me by face, not by name.

At our 10 year reunion, it was pretty much the same story. All the people who knew me by face only had to look at my name tag to sort of recognize me. The 10 year was kind of depressing - everyone was blonder and thinner.

Re: What is your favorite flower? (And, are you curious as to why we’re asking?)

Tulips are my favorite flower. I never had a favorite flower until my husband brought me a little bunch of red & yellow tulips when he picked me up on our first date.

My thoughts were: 1. How sweet of him to bring me flowers, and 2. How wonderful that he chose a flower other than your standard roses or daisies (not that there's anything wrong with those flowers!).

Re: What’s your favourite thing to watch on TV?

Since my second word is "Wit", I can almost always find humor in everything, even unusually tall women with retarded secondary sex characteristics. :)

I didn't even include all my favorite UK comedies - Peep Show, That Mitchell and Webb Look, Ab Fab, Monty Python... Brits are comic geniuses.

Oh, and I think you meant to say KIDS in the Hall, not BOYS, right? Gotta love those guys, too!

Re: What would you be doing if you weren’t watching TV?

I would definitely be reading more (this is a popular answer!). I'm rereading "Georgiana, Duchess of Devonshire" right now. I would also be writing more on my blog.

The Office, 30 Rock, and some guilty pleasure reality shows, such as Project Runway, The Janice Dickinson Modeling Agency, Top Design. I also love the absurd comedy of Tim and Eric Awesome Show, Great Job!

If there were a Masterpiece Theatre channel, I'd be watching that all the time, too!

I always write thank-you notes! My parents instilled that tradition on me when I was very young.

Re: You Smell Good: Is sniffing an act of adultery?

I will always remember the smell of the first guy I fell in love with. Eternity for Men and books. I wrote several poems about how his scent tantalized me, bound me, wrapped me up in sensual goodness. *sigh*

Re: Play Dates: Mommy Cards Made For You

I purchased something similar at erincondren.com. Many of my son's friends at his daycare/preschool are moving on to kindergarten, and I wanted to make sure that we can stay in touch, so I had cards made up with our names, our address and phone number. :)

Re: What do you love about men? (or, why is it so great being a man?)

I love how becoming a father can turn a man into a lovey-dovey adoring daddy! The way their face lights up when they hear their child call them "daddy", the smile when their child runs into their arms at the end of the day... :)
