Questions

1. What is your favorite color?
Green, although blue is a close second. I think I like green because it seems to fit all the seasons in some way or another.

2. What is your favorite animal?
Well, a dog is hard to beat, especially since we've got an awesome one. I still really like monkeys, though.

3. What is your favorite non-alcoholic drink?
Hands down it's water. It refreshes. It's healthy. It's one of those things that can really make you feel better when you drink it. Plus, I sweat very easily, so I'm constantly needing water.

4. What is your favorite number?
I don't know if I have a favorite number. I always liked 13 as a kid because I refused to believe anything so arbitrary as a number could be lucky or unlucky. I wore number 22 when I played baseball because my favorite player wears number 22. The number 73 is kind of cool, for all the reasons Sheldon Cooper likes it. I like numbers.

5. What is your favorite day of the week? 
I really don't know on this one. I like every day for different reasons. I probably like weekends the best because I don't work at the hospital as often over the weekends so I have more time to hang out with Stacy and the family, play games, watch movies, or whatever else sounds good.

6. What is your favorite flower?
I don't have a favorite since I like a lot of variety. I really like the simplicity of daisies. They fit my general taste.

7. What is your passion? I wish I knew. I have lots of things I love, but sadly, day-to-day life and complications have sort of squelched that part of my psyche. I'm trying to rediscover it.

8. Do you watch television?
I do. Not a TON, but it is a nice way to unwind at the end of a day. I watch mostly sit-coms, like "The Big Bang Theory" or "Modern Family." "Go On" is becoming a family favorite. Stacy and I successfully caught up on 7 seasons of "30 Rock" and now we can enjoy the series finale with the rest of the country.

9. Who is your favorite author?
Hemingway. I love the straightforward style of his writing. I appreciate that he can convey a very complex and deep story without needing to confuse the reader with long sentences and archaic language. I love Tolkein, for different reasons.

10. Do you like 80s movies?
Yes, I do. They were fun and quirky and had great writing and characters. The best ones didn't have to stoop to low levels for a cheap laugh.

11. How do you like your eggs?
Mixed in some sort of dough or batter. Please don't make me eat them! I didn't do anything wrong! I can make them pretty well, though.

12. When did you discover blogging?
I discovered it a number of years ago and thought it could be a great way to do online journaling and share pictures and things. I'm not the greatest blogger, but I enjoy it when I do write.

13. Why do you like to blog? 
It's a fun way to share a lot about myself and also share thoughts I'm having. I also like sharing things that our family is doing.
