Curious as a Cat

1) Rewrite the story of "Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer" from the point of view of any one of the other reindeer.

I'm virtually certain that the other reindeer really got tired of hearing how stupid they were compared to Rudolph after he saved the day. I dunno, but I got the sense he'd be one of those guys who'd rub it in, even without meaning to.

2) Where do you fall in your family's birth order? How did your family position affect your development?

I'm last, ten years younger than my next-youngest sibling. Clearly, I was a surprise. Mom always emphasized that I was NOT a "mistake," so I never felt unwanted, and it wasn't so bad having so many 'old people' around, but it did make it hard to deal with my peers. I was a weird cross of Only Child and Youngest.

3) When was the last time you slept in until noon?

I think I did this sometime in the past year, but probably because of illness or jetlag. It definitely was NOT in the past 3 months!

4) Show and Tell. What comes to mind first when you see this picture? Or, tell a story if it reminds you of one.

This reminds me of that famous Escher print:

Except, of course, that it's actually three-dimensional. I wonder where this is; I'd like to visit it.
