I've already done this once, but I decided to do it again. Maybe this time I'll get people to play along?
Leave me a comment saying "Resistance is Futile."
• I'll respond by asking you five questions so I can satisfy my curiosity
• Update your journal with the answers to the questions
• Include this explanation in the post and offer to ask other people questions
1) What's one book you've read cover to cover more than once?
There are several. I've read the entire Anne of Green Gables series at least twice (probably closer to three or four times), most of the Dark-Hunters books I've read at least twice, as well as hundreds, and I do mean hundreds, of readings of Where the Wild Things Are. My favorite Victoria Holt novels have also been read multiple times, The Silk Vendetta, Spring of the Tiger, Pride of the Peacock, Kirkland Revels, The India Fan, Bride of Pendorric...
2) If you could fast forward to the future and spend a day there, would you?
I think it's a very tempting premise. I would like to see where my future is headed - if I achieve my goals and dreams, and yet I would worry that perhaps by seeing it I wouldn't get there. Ultimately, the choices I make determine where I'll end up, so I think I'll not tempt fate and I'll see my future when I get there.
3) What is your dream vacation?
I kind of want to do a Lorelai and Rory and travel around Europe. I don't know that I want to make reservations and have a set schedule, the idea of hopping a train to Paris spontaneously appeals to me. But staying in a hostel where the pillows smell like feet? That does not appeal to me. So maybe have a loose plan? I don't know, but I really do want to go to Europe and go and see everything. Just spend a few months traveling around, taking pictures and seeing the sights.
4) What is your favorite food?
I'm pretty sure that my ultimate comfort food, and by proxy my favorite food, is macaroni and cheese. My mom makes this really awesome cheese sauce from scratch, so I tend to hold that as the best food when I'm feeling like crap. And I can eat it when ever. I never get tired of it.
5) Are you messy or neat?
I'm usually pretty neat. I do the dishes regularly, I make the bed every day (except on weekends, where my husband sprawls across the bed and STAYS there for the day) and clean up the various little messes that are around the apartment. However there is clutter...but I try to keep it as much under control as I can. I can't stand absolute filth. Drives me up the wall.
Okay...I need to go and take my shower so I can start my day and go and wash my car and vacuum it out.

1) Obviously, you are a wealth of fanfic love. But have you ever tried your hand at original fiction?
2) What charities/causes do you support and why?
3) If you could live anywhere in the world, where would you live?
4) Have you ever named inanimate objects (i.e. your computer, car, coffee maker...) and if so, what did you name and what did you name them?
5) If you could sit down and spend a day talking with anyone, celebrity or civilian, dead or alive, who would you talk to and what would you talk about?
