I'm so behind with everything...
Whenever I get Vanity Fair I always turn to the last page...the Questionnaire. I love them. So instead of doing whatever I need to be doing right now (however, today was productive so far...cleaned, went to class, picked up a few things for my fathers birthday...he's going to be 75 on Sunday…bless his old old heart, got my haircut (always a disaster)...) I'm going to do the questionnaire. Why? Because I don't feel like doing anything else...it's raining outside...it's cold...and I enjoy being alone. So here is goes...AND please do it also...it will be a great way to introduce yourself.

Just the opposite here. I work my way through the magazine, saving the questions for last. One of my favorite sections as well! Good to hear the glass is half full. Take care!
Thanks for your blog Kate, love it. VF questionnaire: my goodness we've just met...but I will get back to you on that.
I've added you to my blogroll; found you at Vet Voice. USAF female vet here, recently separated from USAF doc-who's-in-Iraq. Long story. Anyway, love your place and you're invited you over to mine anytime.
