fufaraw1) If you could be either a fish or a bird, which would you be, and why?
I've always loved the water, but in recent years I've developed claustrophobia and now I don't love being underwater so much. And really, short answer: fish don't sing.
2) Would you rather it be 10 degrees too hot or 10 degrees too cold? (Does your answer change if that’s indoors or outdoors?)
The body aches and stiffness are much worse in heat. Why we moved from NC to PNW.
3) What is the best thing that happened to you today?
I dropped my (expensive to replace) clip-on magnetic sunglasses at the grocery store. When I realized it I zipped back to the checkout line I'd just gone through--I'd felt them in my pocket before pulling into line there. "I dropped my sunglasses," I told the cashier. "You sure did!" she chirped. "Someone found them before they got run over, so they're fine."
4) Is youth wasted on the young? (Follow-up: are you old or young?)
Old enough not to be considered young anymore. I think probably the health and energy of youth is wasted on people inexperienced enough to squander it.
5) Pasta salad or potato salad?
I'm theoretically not supposed to have either. My *preferrence is always potato salad--I make two killer recipes of potato salad, even though I can't eat it. But using rice or quinoa noodles I can have pasta salad.
