The Friends Chain Email

"You can kid the world. But not your sister." ~Charlotte Gray

OK, I know probably everyone out there has gotten one of these "how well do you know your friends" emails. I rarely respond, just because I either (1) don't have time or (2) figure the person who sent it already knows most of the answers.

But today I'm going to post my answers to the latest one right here on my blog, 'cause it was from my sis and she rarely stops by...so this is a reason for her to! (Waving at you, H) Oh, and a happy birthday to my dad, too, since I know he'll read this today!!!

Here you go...


1. What is your occupation? Teacher

2. What color are your socks right now? Navy with light blue flowers - cute, not weird, I promise!
3. What are you listening to right now? "Son of a Preacher Man"

4. What was the last thing that you ate? An English Muffin

5. Can you drive a stick shift? Nope (yeah, I know, if I ever had an emergency and had to drive one, I'd be out of luck...actually I have a story where this happened. Too long to get into here, though, and my parents read this blog, so...)

6. If you were a crayon, what color would you be? Red

7. Last person you spoke to on the phone? My husband - he was out doing errands yesterday and wanted to know if he could bring me lunch :)

16. What is your favorite, fall or spring? Spring - rebirth after a cold, dead winter!

I couldn't finish "Next." I saw less than 30 minutes before I turned it off. What a waste of Nicolas Cage.

I also hate cooked fruit. My friends joke about all my food rules, but this one is #1 on omy list.

I got this via email, too... maybe I'll post it on my blog, too!

LOL on the stick shift thing (and the story... my imagination is going wild).

Dru, that is so funny - I didn't know anyone else had an aversion to cooked fruit! Everyone thinks I'm crazy 'cause I don't eat apple pie. (or blueberry muffins, or oatmeal raisin cookies, or...)

Hi, I love to learn more about people! You have been to six countries?! Good for you. You remind me of my sister and the cooked fruit! She won't eat any fruit pies! Have a great week.....Cindi
