Wednesday Hodgepodge

(Link in meme-roll)

1. My sister is celebrating a birthday today. Happy Birthday little sis! What's one way you're like your siblings? If you don't have siblings how are you like your lifelong best friend or cousin?

I'm lousy at communicating with family like my brother. I'm kind of OCD about stuff like my sister.

2. What's the first thing that comes to mind when you think of yourself at age eighteen?

Off to college! Woohoo!

3. Sculptor-actor-painter-dancer...if you could excel in one of these arts, which would you choose and why?

I always wanted to be able to dance when I was a kid. That sort of bled into fantasizing about acting on stage...but I was way too fearful for that. Sculpting sounds flat out fun, and also very physically demanding.

4. What's a scent that takes you back in time, and where does it take you?

My mom used the same pink hand creme (ahem) my entire childhood. I just spent a solid 30 minutes trying to find it online because I can't remember the name. It had a vaguely French-sounding name and came in a white jar. I think it was floral. I know if I caught a whiff of that, it would totally be "MOM!" [if you have any idea what I'm talking about, please give me a hint--it's driving me NUTS now!]

5. November is for Peanut Butter Lovers (National Peanut Butter Lovers Month). Are you a lover or a hater? What's your favorite dish/recipe that calls for peanut butter?

I like peanut butter. I'm not insane about it, but I'll eat it. I like Hershey bars with peanut butter.

6. What do people thank you personally for most often?

I get a lot of thank-yous while at the Reference Desk.

7. What event this year are you most thankful for?

Beast getting treatment.

8. Insert your own random thought here.

I'm off of work for the next week. I have a list of stuff to do. I really, really hope I have enough sticktuitiveness to get it all done.
