Appetizer
Name a color you find soothing.
I really like the color lavender, but turquoise and sage are equally nice when I need to relax.
Soup
Using 20 or less words, describe your first driving experience.
Stick shift.
Sharp curve.
Bounced curb.
Stalled.
Rolled down embankment.
Dad panicked.
Illegal aliens pushed Datsun back to street.
Salad
What material is your favorite item of clothing made out of?
It's an evergreen suede jacket from Coldwater Creek. Gorgeous. Great leather smell and, surprisingly, it goes with just about everything that I own.
Main Course
Who is a great singer or musician who, if they were to come to your town for a concert, you would spend the night outside waiting for tickets to see?
There aren’t any people like that for me anymore. Tickets have gotten so out-of-control price-wise (and iTunes is so cheap and accessable) that I’d rather listen “on vinyl” than pay to see someone live. Besides, most of today’s “artists” lip-synch much of their shows anyway.
Dessert
What is the most frequent letter of the alphabet in your whole name (first, middle, maiden, last, etc.)?
The most frequently occurring letter ... in other words, the “mode” of my name ... is the letter “E”. I have four of them.

MOL! We loved ALL that stuff. The stuff we unnerstood, anyway. Ya know, bein cats...
The Big Thing especially liked the Main Course thing. He laffed an said he never stayed out all night in line fer anyone an wouldnt now even if all the Beatles could come back (an he likes them). But he said he would fer us if we could make music, so that was cool!
Most of the bands and singers i go to see in concerts have been around for years!
I love Cold Case, but omg sometimes it's SO sad...
Thanks for playing, enjoy your weekend!
My mom said she can't think of anyone she EVER wanted to stay out all night to stand in line for tickets-she doesn't think concerts sound as good as the recording and Yay for iTunes!
My Mommie loves Harlan Coben's books!
