I'll Play

Less than 48 things you could care less about:
1. First name: Corinne
2. Were you named after anyone? I think the story is I'm named for some girl that my dad knew or dated when he was stationed in Berlin. Not for any sentimental reason, he just liked the name.
3. When did you last cry? I don't remember, really. Except for getting a little verklempt when Jeffrey won Project Runway.
4. Do you like your handwriting? Yes. I do wish I did less of it, though. My job is very dependent on handwriting, which I'm afraid will tire my hand out for the really important stuff like my knitting.
5. What is your favorite lunchmeat? No real favorite. I like everything except for bologna.
6. If you were another person, would you be friends with you? I hope so.
7. Do you have a journal? Only the blog. That's enough.
8. Do you still have your tonsils? Yes.
9. Would you bungee jump? Noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!
10. What is your favorite cereal? Hot, oatmeal with fresh fruit. Cold, corn flakes with a not so ripe banana. Milk is always on the side. I like my cereal on the dry side.
11. Do you untie your shoes when you take them off? Yes.
12. Do you think you are strong? I'm not sure if I'm either emotionally or physically strong.
13. What is your favorite ice cream flavor? Pistaschio. Spumoni second.
14. Shoe size? 9. That's a size 40 in Dansko, my preferred shoe.
15. Red or Pink? Blue or green.
16. What is the least favorite thing about yourself? Too many to mention or think about!
17. Who do you miss the most? Yoda, my first dog.

19. What color pants, shirt, and shoes are you wearing? Navy pants, blue knit shirt. I'm in slippers now, but earlier wore navy Danskos. Along with hand knit socks and a recently finished Briar Rose Fibers vest.
20. Last thing you ate? Part of a slice of a Jeannine's cake from a Taste of Heaven bakery, shared with the Man.
21. What are you listening to right now? The Man tearing and rustling old newspaper, and watching Mad Money and Monday Night Football.
22. If you were a crayon, what color would you be? Something blue, I suppose.
23. Favorite smell? Freshly ground coffee.
24. Who was the last person you talked to on the phone? My friend David in San Francisco, discussing another Doggie Knits photo shoot.
25. The first thing you notice about people you're attracted to? I don't know if it's any one particular thing. I take in the whole package. When I first saw the Man, it was like I had a brick thrown at my head.
26. Do you like the person you stole this from? Like? I guess you could call it that. It's also an admiration/fascination thing.
27. Favorite drink? Mostly water. I drink lots. My favorite alcoholic drink is a margarita, and non-alcoholic, a really cold Coca-cola poured over a glass full of ice.
28. Favorite sport? I like watching just about any sport with the Man. Except Nascar. We both don't get it.
29. Eye color? A greyish kind of blue.
30. Hat size? Really, really big.
31. Do you wear contacts? No. My eyesight has deteriorated to 20/20, so no vision correction for me, yet.

33. Scary movies or happy endings? I'll take the happy ending.
35 Summer or Winter? Winter! Hate, hate, hate being hot.

41. What's on your mouse pad? It's the standard issue Dell that came from the computer. Must upgrade.
42. What did you watch last night on tv? Shopgirl, with Steve Martin and Claire Danes. Loved it! The music was really great, too.
43. Favorite sounds? Piccolo playing with a squeak toy. There's something really soothing about quiet, too.

45. The furthest you've been from home? London, England.
46. What's your special talent? I don't know if it qualifies as a talent, but I've got a really highly developed sense of smell.
