What is on your list of "must do's" in life?

Besides the obvious "lose 20 pounds, read all of Proust, learn another language, exercise daily?"

I think mine are more mundane.   I want to be a good friend to my husband, kids, family, friends; to be there when they need me and to know when to back away and let them figure it out. (TOUGH!!) 

Keep my mind active by reading challenging and informative information (why do you think I spend so much time on BPO  ;)?), travel to one new place a year (tough when you take Cowboy in to account!!) and learn to have patience ( a HUGE character flaw!)

Can I pick more than one??

People who continue to make the same mistakes over and over and still whine about how their live are so messed up!  (isn't that the definition of insanity?  doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results?)

People, and being from Los Angeles I'm surrounded by them, who think looks are more important than character:  the Paris Hiltons of the world ::).  Who want to be your friend because of what you have rather than who you are!

hehehehe....'cuz you have such good taste!!!  Sincerest form of flattery and all that!!! :D

 What would be your last meal?

Start with a Hanger One Mandrin martini (or two...after all it's my last meal ;D) with proscuitto around a very ripe slice of cantalope and smoked salmon with finely chopped onion and capers on thinly sliced toasts.

Then a medium rare filet mignon with a fine old Bordeaux accompanied by pomme frites and haricot vert with toasted sliced almonds.

For dessert, a fresh raspberry tarte and a wee glass of a fine old single malt...

and then maybe a cheese course....with a bit more of that fine old single malt ;)!!!

...and then I'll just POP!!!

What is one either fun, crazy or outrageous thing that you have done or would like to do... the one thing that would make your friends and/or family say "I'm surprised/impressed, I'd never have thought she'd..."?

After my sophomore year in college, I 'surprised' my family by buying a one way ticket to France and spending a year at the University of Grenoble.  I had worked through high school and college and decided that I needed to grow up a bit.  I had a wonderful time, skiied lots, have an adorable French boyfriend on the National Ski team, learned to speak bad French, drank lots of cheap wine.  Came home, finished college the next year and went right back before I started work.  Oh, those were the days!!

See above.....bad French and now it's mixed with worse Spanish! ;D

What is the most exotic place you've visited?

South Africa, probably was the most exotic, although Panama is right up there!

Where is the next place you'd like to visit?

Darling husband and I are going with some British friends to Prague and Budapest in April to celebrate both of our 30th anniversaries

If you could be stranded anywhere in the world, where would you pick?

In your stranded place...
Which CD would you bring?
Which book?
Which food?
Which beverage?
Which companion?
What other item?

I love Ireland!!
In your stranded place...
Which CD would you bring?

*sheesh*  here's where my geek factor kicks in...sorry guys!  I love classical music:  ANYTHING by Mozart, Telemann; most baroque music and early music with period instruments.  My kids call it 'mental institution music' ;D
Which book?
If I only get one, I'd pick something meaty...like a dictionary or encylopedia.  Couldn't get bored with that! :D
Which food?
Would I still gain weight???  :D  If yes, an assortment of veg., if not, cookies!! (and chocolate)
Which beverage?  EASY!!!  Cappucinos and martinis!!!
Which companion?  Again, easy!! darling husband!  I'm never bored with him!
What other item?  Finally the easiest question!!!  NEWFIES!!!! ;D
