-What does your name mean: Pure (that's rich!)
-High school graduation year: 1960
-Favorite relatives: That's too hard. My children, of course, and my Mom followed closely by my siblings. I have many cousins that were more like siblings when we were young. I have such an interesting family, but many of my favorites are no longer with us.
-Summer memory: Drive-In Movies, picnics, home made ice cream and watermelon feasts.
-Favorite TV shows: Now, this is embarrassing. I like all the CSI's, Survivor, Who's Line is it? and West Wing. It's been a few years since I thought there was a decent sit-com that I like.. such as Frasier, Cheers, Taxi.
-What's on your mouse pad: Gateway logo... but my computer is not Gateway.
-In the car- ac or windows: Definitely ac
-Do you believe in yourself: I believe I am sitting in this chair, but I do not have enough self-esteem to believe I can contribute much.

-Favorite drink: Water, fresh brewed iced tea and caffeine-free diet coke.
-Favorite food: Good
-Favorite colors: Hunter green, purple and salmon
-Favorite cigarettes: I can't remember. Haven't had one since I had a heart attack.
-Favorite sounds: sounds in the country... birds, cicadas, and rustle of tall grass in a mild breeze. I also love to hear babies laugh.

-Favorite thing to do on a weekend: I hardly know when I'm having a weekend.
-Favorite soundtrack: Cotton Club
-Where do you see yourself in 10 years: 10 years older *sigh*
-First thought in the morning: Thanks to the face lick and paw poking, "time to feed the critters".
-Do you get motion sickness: don't know. I can't read in the car without getting nauseous, but have never flown or been on a big boat.
-Rollercoasters- deadly or exciting: scary
-How many rings before you answer the phone: As many as it takes to get to the phone.
-Are you a good friend: I am a very good friend.
-Chocolate or Vanilla cake: Chocolate!!

-Do you sleep with a stuffed animal: Yes, a bunny my daughter gave me and the heart pillow Daddy got when he had his first bypass surgery.
-Thunderstorms cool or scary: I love the sound of thunder, but not crazy about lightening (although it does make the air smell clean). Being here in Oklahoma, I would be more concerned about tornadoes.

-Guys- If a girl ever asked you for the shirt on your back,

-Girls- Would you ever ask a guy for his shirt? I can't for the life of me think of why I would do that. If it is a literal question, and I needed to cover up something exposed, yes, I would. If philosophical, I would never ask anyone for more than they can afford to give.

would it be: Author
-If you could dye your hair one color, what would it be:
I've colored mine for the last time.. not worth the trouble.
-If you could have a tattoo, what and where would it be: I see no reason to have a tattoo... in fact, I don't even understand tattoos and the fascination people have with them. It seems like too much money to spend and pain to endure for something that someday you will probably want to spend the money and pain on removing.

-Most humiliating moment: one of my room mates and I had been ogling a nice looking young man who we often saw on the elevator. As we arrived at his floor, I set myself as if I were running in a sprint, knee down and the door opened and I began my "lurch" onto his floor, he was standing waiting for the elevator and I never felt so stupid in my life. The doors open and the Great Looking Guy was there when I started my "full out" run. :(
-Favorite Holiday: Christmas!!
