Thursday Thunks- Mostly because it is raining... a lot.

1. What is your favorite type of soda (if you drink soda)?
That would be Dr. Pepper. However, I also will drink anything from Sonic, especially a vanilla diet coke. I suspect that they put crack in their fountain drinks, because I can not pass a Sonic without stopping for one.


2. Do you believe in astrology? If so, what does your sign say about you?
The part of me that believes in all things mystical does! However, the part of me that aced Advanced Physics (wow, I just heard a thousand jaws hit the floor, but seriously, I did!) knows that the pull the stars have on someone at any given moment is negligible. But at the same time, when I have read books about Aries born during the "Week of the Child," and it is pretty much like reading about myself! So, who knows?


3. Who is John Galt?
John Galt is a fictional character in Ayn Rand's novel Atlas Shrugged. Although he is absent from much of the text, he is the subject of the novel's oft repeated question, "Who is John Galt?", and the quest to discover the answer. Thanks, Wikipedia!


4. What is the last thing you do before you go to sleep at night?
Toss and turn for a few hours.


5. Who's your Daddy?

6. Jelly beans or Jelly Bellies?
Jelly Bellies! Especially juicy pear.


7. What do you think about yellow car? Why car manufacturer actually made yellow cars?
Yellow cars are OK if you live in a warm climate, or are such a bad driver that you need to have attention drawn to yourself.

Letting go of all things negative, while still holding onto the good.

19. If you could live anywhere in the world, where would you, and why?
I would live in Ireland in a heartbeat. It is so fresh and green, and rains often, which makes everything fresher and greener. And it is a magical place where people spin lovely stories about faeries. And then there is the no snake thing- always a plus!


20. Why do you blog?
Because I like the sound of my own typing.
