bearshortyHave you given up on anyone recently?
I can't think of anyone. And I'm an optimist by nature.
When is the next time you're going on holiday, and where?
I just came from a holiday to Virginia so I'm not sure when my next holiday will be. Probably next summer, somewhere with a beach. I will go with the girls, Bear and my parents this time as Olivia will be old enough to go on vacation.
What color is your mobile phone?
It's white (Galaxy 5) with a black cover with London motif on the back.
What do you love to eat for breakfast?
On regular days I eat oatmeal with some bread and cheese and some tea. On Saturday I like eggs. On Sunday something else. But I generally love all kinds of breakfast food from eggs to French toast to waffles and home fries and toast. I loved hotel breakfasts last week - so many choices.
What was the last destination you searched for in your GPS, or on MapQuest?
I went on Google Maps to see how far this farm was from us. 11 minutes. We had plans to go there yesterday as they have some Halloween stuff, but one hour after my Google maps search my Mom called that Tanya had a fever. It was a 24 things though, so we might go today, even though I have a cold and Olivia's nose is starting to drip.
What's the last video you watched on YouTube?
Either a trailer for "Good Omens" or the trailer for "Star Trek Discovery Season 2".
What is something you need to go shopping for?
Not me personally but I just made a grocery list for Bear.
How is work going?
It's going well. About to get very busy in November.
What are you asking for as a gift for the holidays?
I'm not. I don't really need anything. I think I have a few books on my Amazon wishlist and some movies I would like for the girls. We'll see closer to the holidays.
What is the last significant tech purchase you've made?
Kindle Paperwhite almost two years ago.
Is there a tissue box in your sight right now?
Yes. We always have one in the living room. And I have a cold so I need one.
How long has it been since you last ate a chocolate bar?
Wednesday or Thursday, my coworker Cardan left one on my desk. He was buying them for charity.
What is your favorite holiday and why?
New Year because is was the biggest holiday of my childhood and there were presents on New Year's Day. I do like Halloween a lot now.
How many pets do you have?
None, I'm not a pet person. I don't like touching animals. They are cute to look at.
Ice cream cake or just ice cream?
Ice cream, preferable on a cone.
If you could live anywhere else, where would it be?
I like where I am. But if I had to pick I would say London because I loved living there.
What was the last magazine called you had read?
National Geographic. It's the only one I read and even then I don't have too much time for it.
Are you busy tomorrow?
No. It's Columbus Day so we are off from work. We were going to take the girls to the doctor for their flu shots but we would have to reschedule that with their illnesses this weekend.
What game consoles do you have?
I don't personally have any but Bear has a PS something and Sega. We do have an old Wii but it's not hooked up.

Not really. Watching the kids grow up well?

Fish - smoked salmon
Don't you just wish Fashion would go back to the 1980's?
No
What is the oddest part of your cleaning ritual/beauty routine?
I don't have one. I don't put anything on my face other than soap. And make-up takes 2 minutes.
Is there an umbrella within 5 feet of you?
It's in the closet not too far.
Do you have any cool names in your family tree?
All our names are pretty ordinary and common names. My grandfather did change his name from Aaron to Leonid during World War II. My grandmother always called him Alik. My cousin was named Alexander after him. My other cousin's son was named Leonid after him. So both names got used.
