NO! I hate to dream about falling let alone do it in real life!

Honey Nut Cheerios followed by a close 2nd of Cocoa Krispies
But normally if it's not cheerios I eat now, it's hot flavored oatmeal.

as a favorite color neither - but if I had to choose it would be red. If it's wine - definitely pink. My favorite color is purple.
16. WHAT IS YOUR LEAST FAVORITE THING ABOUT YOURSELF?
I'm a little too bossy & I probably interrupt people way more than I should (shouldn't do it anyway I guess!) And I lack patience.

My grandparents & brother. Those who live too far for me to see often would be my parents, in-laws & kids.

Naturally dark brown with some gray - but since I don't like the gray or the dark, today it's a light golden brown which gives my hair a little more bronze/golden red color.
27. HAIR EYE COLOR? Ok, all you people - did you NOT read this right the first time or did you not want to tell me that I screwed up - should be EYE color not Hair color. And if you know me - you do know my hair color is DEFINITELY NOT blue!
Blue!
29. DO YOU WEAR CONTACTS?
yes
30. FAVORITE FOOD?
Pizza followed by Italian

32. LAST MOVIE YOU WATCHED?
Shrek 3 but that's only because 1st grader wanted to watch it. The last movie in a theater I saw was Pirates of the Carribean 3 last summer. Last movie I really wanted to watch on DVD that I sat through was the Bourne Ultimatum.
33. WHAT COLOR SHIRT ARE YOU WEARING?
Green
34. SUMMER OR WINTER?
