For Lisa, who didn't think I'd answer (the rest of you can read along...)

1. What time did you get up this morning? weekdays, 5:00 a.m. Today, a Saturday, 5:30 a.m. because someone decided to clean their room and do laundry in the middle of the night and it woke me up.
2. Diamonds or pearls? Diamonds
3. What was the last film you saw at the cinema? ummm it was 8/10 because that's the night Scott got in an accident, but I can't remember the name of the movie. Oh, the Bourne Ultimatum
4. What is your favorite TV show? It's been Grey's Anatomy, but that's getting pretty trendy and we'll have to see where they're going to go with the new season, the show that's Addison's spin-off, I might like that. News junkie, but I don't like all the cable news shows - I feel like those people are yelling at us.

15. Favorite brand of clothing? Brand??? whatever fits
16. Where would you retire to? where my children are
17. What was your most memorable birthday? 25th. I was 9 months pregnant with twins and my whole goal was to make it to 25 so I could say I was 25 with 4 kids, somehow that sounded better than being 24 with four kids. I think we ate at a fast food place and I was too big to fit in the booth and the chairs were the kind that were connected to the table and just swung out to sit in - yeah, I couldn't fit there either. That's the most memorable -- But January 5th is a family national holiday and if my kids know what's good for them, they make a big deal about it.

19. Farthest place you are sending this? this is going out into cyberspace - the sky is the limit

27. Any new and exciting news you'd like to share with us? Um, Jenn's engaged but that's not really new news anymore - the whole empty nest thing is hard to deal with - Ron and I are going out of town conference weekend.

56. Favorite smell? Brewing coffee (I would have to guess this is the answer that will throw most people off - those childhood smells die hard. But I would never buy a coffee smelling candle, I think you need the perculating sound going with the smell. I also love when you're driving south in I-15 and you get just below Victorville. California has a distinct smell, I always breath it in and think I'm home)
