My Answers :)
: 1) Which 'minor character' in your life story has had the most significant impact in your life, and why? Extra credit: Select a minor character that would be called the 'bad guy' if your life was a hollywood movie.
There was once this girl...no, really, there was. Although it may not have been the healthiest relationship, I ended up measuring my actions agsint what she would think of it. I did outgrow that personality trait, but it led me into my current habit of reflection on my actions. I just do it for better reasons these days. She's a minor character because I haven't spoken to her more than twice in 10 years, but she acted as a catalyst for a major change in my self-development. The irony being that youthful ignorance and stupidity drove me into a desire to be a better person. I'm grateful for that result, because it could have gone many other ways.
: 2) Which combination gives you a greater sense of comfort: Brown hair & blue eyes, or blond hair & brown eyes?
Brown & Blue. Unusual, and cozy.
: 3) You are ordered to spend 24 hours being creative without ever taking a break. What is your medium of choice for your creative outputs? How will you present the results to everyone? What date should we plan this project?
Preparation = 3 weeks of sketching and life drawing sessions.
Action = Take those drawings and make a mental collage. Finishi that mental image into finished works over the course of the day. Move to the computer to write some poetry between drawing sessions.
Distribution = I'm a web geek. A Web site it would be. Scanners are a good thing.
Timing = Maybe the 3rd weekend in September. Anyone else want to join up?
: 4) Blue margaritas?
Limit two. They taste better the more you have, and are therefore dangerous.
: 5) Are you a mountain person or an ocean person?
Peace, quiet, a sense of accomplishment, an overview of everything around you, and a natural high for lack of oxygen. Not to mention the scenery. Mountains it is.
: 6) Are the people in your dreams real people, or do you create entire new beings from your imagination?
Almost exclusively imaginary. I dream of real people only a few times a year.
