Survey says. . .

1. Cellphone: a sexy iPhone (which very well may turn me into an apple addict as my ipod never did. . .)
2. Relationship: happily single at the moment
3. My hair: is always changing. . . natural brown with red gold highlights, currently light brown, and i think lots of greys are coming in (my mum started early) so I'm thinking of letting the highlights fade to relish the sexy silver streaks!!
4. Work: constantly varied and always with purpose
5. My sibling/siblings: is my darling younger brother, who is my complete opposite but adored and respected for his amazing qualities. he used to pick up worms from the road after a rainstorm so they wouldn't be squashed by cars, even though they would inevitably crawl back into the road. . .

7. My dream last night: i don't remember dreaming last night. . .
8. Favorite drink: fresh young Thai coconut water
9. Dream car: not having a car! or one of those cars that high school students recently figured out how to make that gets something like 1800 miles to the gallon. . .amazing what you can do when not influenced by oil companies
10. The room I’m in: is warm with the wood stove and winter is fading into spring outside the floor to ceiling windows. . . slowly but surely
11. My shoes: I'm barefoot now (and prefer to be that way most of the time). . . but when i have shoes on, they're usually sustainable and recycled materials or vintage Frye boots

14. Who did I hang out with this weekend: friends and family

18. Where I grew up: in the woods and by the ocean in Maine
19. Last thing I did: watched G Living videos of Elizabeth Kucinich and Howard Brown (of Stewart + Brown)
20. Wearing: black yoga pants, and my sexy new black v-neck Tonic Generation t-shirt of bamboo and organic cotton that enabled three families to have mosquito nets in Africa, stud earrings, beaded bracelets and a tied cord around my wrist
21. Not wearing: anything on my feet or make-up
22. My pets: i had a very cool cat growing up, then my ex and i had a dog for a few years, currently I am companion free. . . but have a rather coolish bond with my parents' new cat Marie Antoinette- we don't snuggle much but we get each other's independence perfectly. . .
23. My computer: is an hp laptop, although I'm spending more and more time with "my other" the aforementioned iPhone. . .

29. My kitchen: well i don't currently have one. . .but my ideal is an open-air, hand-built stone counters. . . with juicer and vita-mix all sexy and well-used. . . with herbs fruit trees. . . and an old soap-stone sink big enough to bathe in!
30. My weather: turning into twilight. . . lots of snow still on the ground but there is the scent of spring in the air. . .
31. Favorite color: this ties into the favourite question. . . i can't ever pick one- it often depends on what chakra needs addressing. . .
32. Last time I laughed: just a few minutes ago, a lot of things make me giggle
33. Last time I cried: i got a happy and overcome sort of lump in my throat when I watched the Jill Bolte Taylor TED talk for the first time. . . but i don't cry very much- and when I do it's not from sadness. . . but rather joy.
34. School: is life
35. Love: is compassion and presence
