  1. I say 75. I'm always cold in offices and on buses. Its worse if air is blowing directly on me. A few years ago my co-worker had a fan always on her (it was a hot-flash thing) and I was miserable. SO, I always carry some kind of a tote with a sweater or sweatshirt inside.


  2. Damn, I just remembered this. I sat next to Kelly and her Dad at one of the Philly shows and she told me she was going to the San Diego show. I don't see any posts by her anywhere. But man, I am thinking this really screwed up her plans. :085:

    Thanks for thinking of me, Patty! I'm really starting to get the feeling that this whole "TPATH community" thing is falling apart. It used to be so different...

    Well, I went to San Diego on Monday, and I found out the concert was postponed (again) on Tuesday as I was driving to the venue. I heard it on the radio. Luckily I didn't make the whole entire hour drive out there. I had my California adventure, and I enjoyed myself. Didn't get to see the show (and I won't - I'm back in NJ) This show was postponed TWICE - I spent a lot of time and effort and money rescheduling things from June to September, and now moving it to October is just too much for me. I think I'm done with this whole Tom Petty-fandom. The three concerts I saw this year were all exactly the same, the band and Tom sounded mediocre at best - like they were just showing up and giving the least amount of effort to get through the songs. And they were the same same songs I've heard live over the past 5 years and 25 shows. But they didn't sound as good. No one seemed particularly excited, not the band and not even me. The "official" boards are an unrecognizable mess, the customer service concerning the whole MOJO packages and the stupid fan club with poster and the group A and the group B and the entire experience this tour has been horrible. The only mojo that MOJO has is bad, bad, bad mojo, like some kind of voodoo curse mojo. Cancellation, rescheduling, postponing, sinus-infecting, phoning-it-in BAD mojo.

    Please nobody flame me, this is just my feelings on the whole deal - you don't have to agree. I just wanted to unload these thoughts because I have been carrying this huge weight around for months.


  3. I very rarely have time to be out and about in my neighborhood. So whenever I am, I say hello and talk to my neighbors. They are really really friendly (to the point of nosy!) Sometimes I really don't feel like it, because I am constantly talking to people all day at work. I don't want people to think I'm cranky or antisocial, just want them to know I'm busy!


  4. 1. Have you ever called the police? Yes, lots of times. I live in NJ!

    2. Name a movie that brings you to tears -- or as close to tears as you'll ever get: Please, dog food commercials have made me cry before.

    3. Chicken pox -- have you had them? If yes, how old were you? Yes I was in Kindergarten, so 6?

    4. What is the kindest thing someone has done for you in the last month? My dad took me and my mother and my aunt on an all-day meandering mad cap road trip all over the place on the Sunday before Labor Day. It was really fun!

    5. What is the most uncomfortable outfit that you have worn this year? Funeral clothes. They always are the most uncomfortable. :(


  5. 1. American football: good times or couldn't care less? couldn't care less.

    2. Do you have a favorite sports team? not really. This summer my favorite was the Little League team from my town that went to the World Series! (They lost. But I did watch them and cheer them on!)

    3. What's your favorite junk food? Tortilla chips with guacamole and hot hot salsa!

    4. Do you feel sports players are paid too much? no, I don't begrudge them their salaries. I does make me sad that people like nurses and teachers don't make more money, though.

    5. Do you watch the Superbowl every year? Yes, but only to watch the commercials and the halftime show. I usually knit through the football of it all!


  6. Last time was dining room set - table and chairs and a bench last year. It took me a really long time, I went to 5 different stores, looked several times over the course of about a month. I knew instantly when I saw it - exactly what I wanted. It took about 30 seconds to find the guy to write up the sale.

    I've only ever bought furniture twice - it seems to take me a long time to decide what I want, but the purchasing is very quick - I instantly know when I want to take something home with me!


  7. today i need to tie up my outside table & chairs. (hurricane is coming tomorrow!) I don't have a rope, but I'm thinking I'll just push the chairs in really tight around the table, and then go around the whole mess a few times with duct tape (with the sticky side out) Hopefully the combined weight of everything will stand up to any high winds. Chairs have heavy metal frames, and the table is metal and glass. (fingers crossed)


  8. I'm the dog/cat nail cutter. I cut the nails of my pets, and for my parents, for my grandmother, for my sister (when she had them). No one else wants to do it, so they wait until their poor dog or cat has giant over-grown long nails, and then ask me to cut them. I can't stand to see them uncomfortable, so now I do it whenever its needed, even if I'm not asked.
