Monday Mission:

1. Do you remember your first encounter with computers? Tell me about that.
I remember when we got an Apple IIe in 1983 and my dad teaching me how to use a mouse and I played some game with shapes.

2. How late can you stay up and still be functional the next day? Do you do that very often?
I've gotten home at 6am and worked the next morning at 9. This only happens maybe twice a year.

3. When was the last really good hug you got from another adult? Who was it and what was the situation?
Hmmmm...Chris...in his bedroom...

4. One thing about children is that they all like to draw. We all shared the same ability and skill level at one time. Do you still like to draw? (Not do you think you draw well, or do others, but do you like to?) If not, how come? Did you get discouraged at some point?
At one point about a year and a half ago, I suddenly got inspired to draw little caricatures of people and really managed to capture the 'essence' of their character. It only lasted for about a couple of months.

5. I way overslept today. I had to head to work with no shower (don't get too close), and I am not in the best of moods. Have you ever overslept on a day you had something important going on? What's the story there?
I once took an afternoon nap and my alarm didn't go off. Woke up at 4:27 and my lesson was at 4:30.

6. Ever go shopping for something you know you can't afford? You look at it and even think about how it will look when you get it home, somehow you justify the cost and believe it can happen? And just before you get to the counter come to your senses? What was the last thing you almost bought, but thought better of it? And why the heck do we do that to ourselves?
a) all the freakin' time!
b) sometimes I'll put something back because I don't need it RIGHT NOW. (did that with razor refills on Saturday)
c) There were lots of good clothing sales this past weekend, but I stopped myself because I know I'll see a lot more cool stuff on vacation next week.
d) because I'm a shopaholic.

7. (It begins again...) It's all such a blur now. I'd asked you to help me wake up but the alarm didn't go off. It was 10 till and just I knew I'd be late. Somehow you got me here on time. How did you do that?
I poured a glass of ice water on your head. :mischievious
