 11 Things About Me...

6. I've never lived outside of Alabama.
7. My favorite movie as a child was The Last Unicorn.  It's still one of my favorites.

10. My dogs have middle names.  Mason "Longsfellow" Williams and Blaze "Black Ice" Williams.
11. I've got screws in both my feet (bunion surgery).

 Adrian's Questions...

1. When did you start blogging and what keeps you going? I started blogging in January of this year.  Blogging helps me stay focused on what I want to accomplish in my life.  I love it!
2. If you could live anywhere in the world where would it be and why?  I would love to live in the mountains somewhere in Japan, in a secluded area.  I love Japanese everything and mountains are so peaceful to me.
3. Do you collect anything? Not really, but I'm pretty sure I do have enough owl stuff to constitute a collection.
4. Do you have any pet peeves?  When people have a conversation with someone in the middle of the aisle at the grocery store.  Just move!
5. Do your coworkers know that you have a blog?  No, but I doubt it would surprise them.
6. Has anyone recognized you from your blog?  No.  That would be awesome though.
7. What are a few of your favorite blogs?  Adrian Love Owls (of course), Japanese Streets, Little Chief Honeybee, and Stuff I Put On Myself.
8. Would you rather walk barefoot through a hallway full of cockroaches or eat one cockroach? I guess walk barefoot through a hallway.  I could not eat one.  Nope.
9. If you could only pick one shoe to wear for the rest of your life, which shoes would it be? It's sad that I don't actually own a pair of shoes that I love that much.  My perfect pair would have to be black and super comfortable.
10. How much time do you spend doing your makeup? Maybe 5 minutes?  Not very long though.
11. What is your favorite thing about blogging?  Meeting new people!  It's been so much fun connecting with people and sharing common interests!
