Hi Melissa,
ReplyDeleteI'm jealous that you got to work on Halloween. That would have been a great time to work on my book, 'cause it's supposed to be a little creepy! Alas, we did the whole trick-or-treat thing, and the carnival thing, then the Dawn of the Dead thing. It was fun, but completely non-productive.
Rachel- I normally like handing out candy to the little trick o' treaters, but I just wasn't in the mood that night. I need to get my novel done and that was far more important to me that night, for some reason!
ReplyDeleteYou can't drive a stick shift?
ReplyDeleteI have never listened to Nickleback OR Keith Urban and I aim to change that now!!!
Toni - Nope, a stick shift is beyond me. I pop the clutch over and over again. I just can't get the hang of it no matter what I do. Hubby tried to teach me once, but I failed dismally.
ReplyDeleteI love dressing up, too. Such fun! I'd love to wear period costume sometime, just for kicks.
ReplyDeleteYay - that was fun. I like seeing how many answers match up to see what you have in common with others. I finished mine over on my blog - good idea with the color coding, makes it easier to read!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the meme, Melissa - it was fun!!
ReplyDeleteTess, you're welcome! And you're right, Kelly, it was fun to see how our answers matched up! I love learning new things about people.
