Same question
steinbeck for a chat hoping some of his talent would rub off; zora neale hurston, how did she come up with some of those lines; willa cather, why was the 'professor's house' so sad; hemingway, down to cuba where his house is, share a drink and go fishing; marqueza to see if he is as truly colorful as his books...
same question...
My dinner party companions might compose of:
Oscar Wilde ... so that I could get a feel for his dashing persona
Hermann Hesse ... so that we could share some abstract thoughts

The Brothers Grimm ... why? Well why NOT? ;)

What? What kind of horrible question is that? I'm confused why would I only have one pair of shoes? I need to go lie down. Mommy?
OK, I'm better now. Probably a semi dressy pair, small heel, black so I can wear then with just about everything.

Fall is my favorite season. It's not too hot and not too cold and here in the mountains, the colors are beautiful
carpet or hardwood floors
Spring...because after a long winter, and MN has a long Winter!!! you see new life come from the trees, I mean all during winter you think its dead and then it comes again...I know it sounds cheesy!! but I think Spring is the season of hope, in a way...
Same question
oops(sorry) took too long...
Hardwood
Hard wood floors- as long as they have small rugs over them in some places so that I can lie down and be comfortable.
What would be your dream day?
A day where I can not think about anything and everything.... maybe Greece?? where I can sketch and sit at a coffee shop and just relax!
Same question
My dream day would be a day of clear skies and not too hot, walking barefoot at a sandy beach (free from people, natch!). I would feel the wind in my hair and feel the silky sand beneath my toes. Drinking coffee at a quiet table with a thick notepad and lots of pencils would top the afternoon off, as the Muse would surely join me .... (me hopes!) :)
May I pose this same question to the person below me!
ooh, dream day....hm.
Summer day. Warmth. Then, a deliciously dark, dusty, musty library. Old manuscripts, smelling of times long past. The treasures of the years, laid at my fingertips. Solitude. A comfy deep wide chair with a blanket. A large jug of water. Pen and paper. And TIME. There would be nothing I would long for more than time that day.
same question
(because I don't know another one, lol)
So many to choose from! can I do two??
Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon.... it is a beautiful movie and the fact that it is in Chinese only adds to it.. Second is Never Been kissed, because I can always watch it after a bad day and still feel good at the end, and I still cry when he runs out in the field..:)
Same question:)
A day that passes by slowly, a day when you dont need to pretend and be who you are not, a day of good weather, a day with good and positive people around you who aren't judging every word or every move you make, a day full of laughter, and.......
same question...
Hummm. Some are answering movie questions and some seasonal, and some floors! OK: Movie: Van Helsing, The Village. Day: Spring when you can walk in the woods and enjoy nature. Floors, hardwood. http://i94.photobucket.com/albums/l1.../suffering.gif
