By the way...
What is your birthstone?

Topaz.

Do you like the color; does your birthstone mean anything to you?

Not particularly--yellow is far from my favorite color. And if it's set in gold, you can hardly see it. All topaz means to me is that I was born in November.

Do you have any jewelry or special items that contain your birthstone?

I have topaz earrings I got for a birthday. 16th? 18th? I can't remember. I lean towards 16.

If you know anything else about your birthstone's physical attributes or where its found, fill us in.

I know nothing, and care just about that much. I've always resented having such an unattractive birthstone. Consequentially, I don't think about it a great deal.
