I would have avoided an argument. I might not have lost a friend.

I'm going to be Jessie the Cowgirl from "Toy Story 2". No coordinating.
I sort of made the costume. (I didn't like the look of the "officially licensed" package version.) I bought a white shirt and painted on the design, made chaps to attach to my jeans, and ordered the hat. And yes, there is a pull-string on the back of my shirt.

I work for a union. Boycotts are part and parcel. I avoid Wal-Mart like the plague, and a couple years ago I boycotted area grocery stores during a strike by their employees.
*smack* stop it.
I do try to. For the most part, it has worked on varying levels.
Wash and Zoe.
No, I'm not saying this because I'm a 'Firefly' geek. I'm saying it because I felt they had the most realistic marriage I've seen portrayed on TV. They weren't over-the-top lovey-dovey, but nor were they constantly sniping at each other. Theirs was neither a sitcom marriage nor a soap opera one. Instead, they were a couple who showed love and affection, and obviously - gasp! - still loved each other after more than one year of marriage. And yes, they fought, but it was realistic and not overdone.
OK, maybe it's a little bit because I'm a 'Firefly' geek.

In case anyone was actually wondering: "Firefly" and "Serenity"!
"Dancing with the Stars," of course! My strategy? To dance my toes off! (Well, hopefully they'll stay intact until after I get the shiny disco ball trophy.)

Yes, but the joke was on him; he didn't notice my green earrings.

"Shit ... what's wrong??? What did I do???"

I share my birthday with Rob Lowe. No similarities that I know of.

Sheltie!
If I just have a sniffle, I go to work. If I have any sort of fever or anything that requires medicine (OTC or otherwise), or if I'm feeling supremely lousy, I stay home for at least a day. This is both to keep from spreading germs and to aid in my recuperation, because I hate hate HATE being sick.

Food-wise: peppermint hot chocolate!
Firefly, of course. Big time. Buffy and Angel, too.
I miss Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip, as well, although at least that one got closure.
And I am already mourning the demise of Pushing Daisies, even though there are 4 or 5 episodes left to air.

nostalgic
It is a right. It is so much of a right I can hardly describe it. My job might not pay much, but it offers fully employer-paid health insurance, including dental and vision. I couldn't have had my surgery without it, and I'm grateful every day for the "What if...?" worry it takes off my shoulders.
I've chosen to answer this because I opened this LJ on September 11, 2002. My original impetus for doing so was to write my recollections and feelings on the 1st anniversary. I never did. So, here are my recollections and feelings now, 7 years on:

Top 5:
"Holding Out for a Hero" - Bonnie Tyler
"Big Spender" - Peggy Lee or Shirley Bassey
"When You're Good to Mama" - Queen Latifah (Chicago)
"Fever" - Peggy Lee
"Devil Went Down to Georgia" - Charlie Daniels Band
One of these songs is not like the others, one of these songs just doesn't belong ...
(Also, I'm still looking for a partner to duet with me to "Pardadise by the Dashboard Lights")

calm - Music:"Ghostbusters" - Ray Parker, Jr.
It will come as no surprise that I would open my own bakery/custom cake shop. I would call it Always Cake, from the quote, "Where there is cake there is hope, and there us always cake". I would have cakes, cupcakes, decorated cookies, and whatever else I felt like adding to the menu.
- Mood:
contemplative - Music:"Green Onions" - Booker T & the MG's
I want to learn how to skydive. In addition to being a little crazy, it might also help me overcome my fear of flying.
- Mood:
working - Music:"Europa" - Santana
