How many bones have you broken? Yours or someone else's?
The only bone I have ever broken is a bone in my mouth. When my 4 front teeth were knocked out when I was 14 - a little bone was broken too. Teeth are bones too right? My teeth survived the accident thanks to my mom maxing me out on vitamins. The Oral surgeon did not expect my teeth to "keep" but, for my body to reject them.
Thanks to my mom!!!
What are your personal memories of September 11th?
I had just moved into a house in St. Petersburg Florida and I was unpacking my things that had recently arrived. The first plane had crashed and I had the news on. As I was watching the live TV - the second plane came in and hit. It was a terrible day. My father was a pilot and I didn't know if possibly he was flying one of the planes. It is the most horrific day of my life so far. I don't even want to think about it. Then seeing the blogs of people that lived in the city and hearing first accounts from friends who lived there.
I really can't express my feelings about this adequately.

What is your favorite children's movie?
I'd say Candleshoe! 
- Small time crook, Harry Bundage discovers that the old manor where Lady St. Edmund resides, with a number of children and her butler (Priory) is the resting place for a hoard of buried treasure. Unfortunately, he doesn't know where it is. Bundage recruits urchin Casey Brown to dupe Lady St. Edmund into thinking that she is her long lost granddaughter and then try to find the treasure. Unfortunately, Lady St. Edmund is flat broke and Casey, Priory and the children help the Lady to try to keep her home and pride, as they do all the chores and Priory acts as the butler, gardener, chauffeur, old major all at the same time!

Christine - Siouxsie and the Banshees - Kaleidoscope
Why? I was just doing a little blurb about my Rosebud, Christine - named for the song and then the chorus started...
she tries not to shatter, kaleidoscope style Personality changes behind her red smile Every new problem brings a stranger inside Helplessly forcing one more new disguise
Christine-the strawberry girl
Christine-banana split lady
Singing sweet savages lost in our world This big-eyed girl sees her faces unfurl Now she's in purple
Now she's the turtle
disintegrating

What's your favorite way to keep in touch? Phone, snail mail, email, text message, Vox, _____ ?
it all depends on who it is. Mom, Kim - phone...
old friends - email, then phone...
i really miss getting interesting little letters and packages from friends before email. i have a lot of artist friends and getting mail from them was always interesting and a keepsake. :)
i feel birthday cards are a bit of a waste of money. i enjoy christmas cards tho'. especially with blythe buddies who make cards or send cards from a different country. that's neat!
