More about Jennifer

Thanks to Sarah in Michigan for this twisted little survey. The goal was to send it blank to your friends and they'd fill it out and send it back to you. Just for kicks, I thought I'd post the responses I received without saying who they were from of course…*G* One thing I've found interesting ~ I tend to remember when I actually became friends with someone while I get back first meetings which may or may not have been the same time. Okay, so I thought that was interesting…:) And… as I've added these I've decided I need to put where they are from so that they make more sense!

I think it freaks you out to let people see that vulnerability, to the point that you know you could in front of me with no ill side-effects, but you've programmed yourself not to in public.

There are still three people who haven't responded - you're in trouble! Thought I'd go ahead and post these now since I'm off to Bako tomorrow…

But in closing, here's what I'd say - okay some are goofy because of the nature of the question…

1. Where did we meet?: In the delivery room
2. Take a stab at my middle name: Lynn
3. How long have you known me?: Through many lifetimes
4. Do I smoke?: Yes
5. Do I believe in God?: Not the traditional Christian god, nor do I believe in any supreme deity
6. What was your first impression of me upon meeting?: Okay can't even be goofy here!
7. What's my age?: 30
8. And my birthday?: 7/7
9. What color hair do I have?: Blonde with varying shades as the mood strikes me.
10. And color eyes?: Green unless I'm really emotional
11. Do I have any siblings?: Yes - two half brothers I acknowledge, one deceased half brother, one disowned half brother and one incredible sister who legally may be a step-sister but in reality couldn't be more of a full blood sister. Yet I grew up an only child…
12. Have you ever had a crush on me?: What was that Heimlein novel? "Time Enough for Love"... I could really have fun with this one!
13. What's one of my favorite things to do?: Oh lordy - hockey of course, reading, playing on the computer, playing with the animals, and yes, wreaking havoc!
14. Do you remember one of the first things I said to you?: Um…
15. What's my favorite type of music?: Actually these days it'd be "alternative", but really I listen to damn near everything as the mood strikes me.
16. What is the best feature about me?: Physically I'd say my eyes but who knows - also don't do bad in a pair of jeans - at least I don't think I do!
17. Am I shy or outgoing?: Actually this one is funny as everyone said outgoing, but how often am I outgoing to cover the shyness?!
18. Would you say that I'm funny?: I amuse the hell out of myself several times a day - does that count?!
19. Am I a rebel or do follow all the rules?: I think my sister hit this one - professionally I do follow the rules as much as possible - personally - I follow the rules all right - the ones I make up!
20. Any special talents?: Can I say that on this webpage?! :) I'll thank Brinn nicely for the photography one actually - thank you nicely! And actually I'd say my biggest "gift" is my intuition and ability to learn and grasp concepts quickly.
21. Would you consider me a friend?: Well, I do like myself!
22. Have you ever seen me cry?: Well yes, but not often. At some point I decided crying - except at books, movies and Hallmark commercials - was a weakness I wouldn't allow myself. A wise choice? I don't know, but I don't cry often.
23. If there was one good nickname for me, what would it be?: T-R-O-U-B-L-E ~ thank you Jenn, we'll let your answer stand! I also do answer to willow quite a bit due to my numerous screen names, and that one has grown on me to but I'm not sure if it fits.
24. What's your favorite memory of me?: In all my life until this point can I pick a favorite memory? I'd say high on the list in terms of what happened next would be my first hockey game in Oakland in June of `95 - that game changed my life in so many ways. Also seeing Lethal Weapon with Karen on 4/11/87 - that set the whole destiny wheel in motion. Other great moments that I talk about a lot - the trip to Texas in `95 with Jenn and the snow storm and the accident at the 18 mile marker, the night in Amarillo and the hockey game in San Antonio… What else? The party at Dave's 5/23/87. The night with Karen in the apartment in `88 with the butcher knives and cigars. Meeting MJ in Fresno and chasing down aliens and marbles in the pool - and screwing up the satellite reception with ice cubes - not to mention watching the pizza deliveries to the hotel rooms. Oh shit - the trip before to Fresno with Jenn and driving around looking for pool halls with six people in the truck. Elevator surfing in SD with MJ & Jenn. Crap - Fresno again in `01 with MJ, Rachel & Kirsten. Going to Quebec City this past summer with Nathalie. Meeting my bio mom when I was 19. The day Cassandra was born… okay enough! There are so many more special memories - I guess I've been blessed - well that and my ability to have a great time no matter what is going on around me - hell a car accident made this list!
25. What single trait about me annoys you the most?: My tendency to obsess and not leave well enough alone. ~ although Karen is probably right and "tenacious" is a better way to phrase that!
26. If you and I were stranded on a desert island, what one thing want to take with us?: I'm gonna stick with my first answer to Sarah - a hockey team! Give beach hockey a whole new meaning… :) Unless of course a laptop with satellite modem was a valid choice!
