1. Whatever time I work... My schedule is kinda sporatic. 7-10 if I'm just left to it.2. Adventure, suspense, comedy. NO CHICK FLICKS.3. Power rangers, teenage mutant ninja turtles, garfield, pokemon, etc.4. To be invisible, or to fly, or both! Or mind reading, x-ray vision, the whole shebang. 5. Uhh... Enchiladas? Hence the name Chinese is ok occasionally, but mostly mexican, with italian a close second.6. Tiger. but i'm gonna run a zoo someday so that'llbe good enough.7. In high school I played guitar in jazz band, flute in wind ensemble, and was in the percussion ensemble (mallets, quints, snare). Working on piano.8. 18 forever. I think I like it.9. Beautiful whit tabby Keisha, my pride and joy. She's smart and hilarious and gorgeous-- perfect in every way. She'll snuggle when I want to snuggle, play when i want to play, and gives great massages. ^-^ Then my sis's cat Carmel, a little devilish creature who has shaken kitten syndrome or SOMETHING, she's wiggy. If she weren't therapy for my little sis she'd be looong gone by now. She's annoying and pees on everything. Never had a dog but getting a malamute, husky, or other wolfish dog asap.10. I had infantile botulism when i was less than a year old, complete paralysm, had seizures from lack of oxygen (that should explain a lot )spent weeks in a hospital hooked up to an IV and respirator, still have scars from the IV needles cuz they were in my feet for so long.

1) What time you wake up in the morningMorning?2) What type of movies you like mostI do watch a lot of romantic comedies, (sometimes it's nice not to think) comedies, some drama, foreign films, Independent films, and occasionally documentaries, if the subject interests me.3) Favorite cartoon as a kidooh, which part of childhood? I loved David the Gnome, and stuff on Nick Jr. when I was 6 and under. And Looney Toons, Ghostbusters, TMNT (though that was more my sister's fav) Inspector Gadget and stuff from about 5-8. After that, Looney Toons, Animaniacs, Freakazoid (awesome silly show) The Tick! Simpsons, and stuff like that. 4) Super power you wish you could haveThe ability to change my age at will.5) Favorite kind of non-American foodJapanese, I think. At least, the little I've tried of it.6) Pet you wish you could haveOh, wow. Well, I wanted a capyberra for a while, though apparently they smell pretty bad. I do want to work with big animals, but not have them as "pets". 7) musical instrument you play (or wish you could play)Keyboard-badly. Harmonica-badly. Kazoo.....as well as anyone can play the kazoo. But you should see me on the tambourine. Wow.8) What age you wish you could be5, if I wouldn't have to grow up the same way. 5 was a good age, though.9) Cats or dogsI think I'm more of a cat person. Love dogs, but I've got a connection-y thing going with cats.10) something not many people know about youI have blood pressure on the low end of the scale, and a very fast pulse rate.

It's b/c of your Tick obsession isn't it.They used to have some at the zoo here. They rolled around in mud a lot but they didn't smell any worse than a pig.

Actually, yeah. I planned on naming him Speak, as an honorific. (I'd never heard of capyberas until I saw that episode of The Tick. So see, cartoons ARE educational!)

Well...since skittles was so honest I have a new #10.10) I have extreme social anxiety especially in regards to the phone (it freaks me out to have to call anyone that I am not really, really close to and when the phone rings I feel like someone is harassing me. "Why are they calling? Why can't they just leave me alone?" "Hello. Ms. McKenzie your photos are ready." Sheesh, why do they invade my privacy?)But even weirder than the phone anxiety is my house anxiety. I freak out at the idea of people coming to my house. My poor child can't have people over to play (well, that's not the only reason--when her friends do come over the downstairs neighbor complain--but they complain about everything.) I had a friend drop me off once and wanted to come in to use the bathroom. I tried to remain calm while having an anxiety attack. Last week, the bugman had to come and spray for scorpions. I was really tempted to say I'd take my chances with the scorpions. I had a four hour anxiety attack while waiting for the bugman to come. (The apartment notice just said the day he'd come, not the time.) If it had been late afternoon I probably would have laready had a heart attack.The weirdest thing is, I wasn't always that way. When I got my very first apartment it was a crashpad for everyone out of town or who had a long drive. (I lived in Houston, you could drive for an hour and still be in Houston.) I remember one night getting up to go to the restroom and having to step of a dozen people to do so. How did I go from this to that?weird

it happens, and i know someone with almost the same problem as you...before i moved to tennessee there was a older woman *older than me i mean* that live in the upstairs apartment, she didnt really like people in her house, and it was super clean because of her ocd too...after a while of me talking to her and what not i was finally invited to go up and chit chat there, i felt scared to move cuz i mite spill something or knock something over...but eventually i got used to it. so no worries, your not alone

wo Kitty. I am the same way with the whole social anxiety thing. I wouldnt even call in a pizza if someone else was there to do it. People get frustrated with me about it, but I cant help it. Even if I wanted to go to the neighbors house, I would have to have my mom call over to see if they were home. Im shy and dont like to really talk to people I dont know very well. Ive gotten a little better, but sometimes it wouldput me in tears as a kid when my dad would want me to call somewhere to see what time they closed, and I just couldnt do it.

Glad to know I'm not alone. In high school I had ver social friends. This one girl I called my secretary bc she did all my phoning for me. And that was in the days before caller ID. You didn't even know who was calling! AHHH!I used to have anxiety about other things. One time when I moves, I would drive 20 minutes out of my way to go to my "old" grocery store. There was one one block down from my new place but I couldn't go in there alone bc I had never been there before. What if the bread was on a different aisle?! I knew it was silly but I couldn't help it. I finally went there with a friend of mine at 3am. (We were up anyway.) It wasn't so bad.
