1. Your Christmas gift: a book or a bottle? Pick.A bottle of something that smells beautiful so I can put on my skin or in the bath and sit in it for hours. 2. Which season? Say why if you feel inclined. Winter. I like the cold because I like the warmth of those mornings when I'm so snug in bed that I just don't want to do anything but stay there. I also like winter clothing more than summer clothing. I like wearing hats and scarves and coats. 3.You’re going to take me on a date. Where are you going to take me? You, I would take straight back to my place. Anyone else, I would pick up something fanciful for us to eat and take them to the rooftop of a tall building and just sit there until morning talking, not forgetting to enjoy the view of the stars along the way, or the (fingers crossed) make-out session. 4.A Cowboy arrives on Friday, stays for 3 days, then goes back on Friday? How?
Who cares? I've kicked him out. Uranus conjunct Descendant. 3 days? He's done his bit. 5.The last jobs in town, the kids are hungry, so you need to make up your mind between sales or customer service call centre, which one? Sales. I don't like phones. I'm best in person, online comes a distant second. 6.If a tree falls in a desert, will anyone hear it? ***crickets chirping*** Is it day time or night time? Is this a bit like what colour eggs does a rooster lay? 7.Your Grandma has been given 6 months to live but you have been told that she doesn’t know this and you mustn’t say. When she asks you straight out – what do you do? Hard one. Doctors have been known to be very wrong about these prognoses. The human spirit can overcome many human restrictions. I say that we're all going to die sometime and that any one of us could get hit by a bus tomorrow so as you never know when you're time is up, making the most of every second now counts. And then take her out to do something outlandish and make her laugh so hard it hurts, so she can remember how alive she is right now. IP: Logged |

1. Your Christmas gift: a book or a bottle? Pick.I want both. A book in the shape of a bottle maybe ? 2. Which season? Say why if you feel inclined. Autumn....harvest, the scent in the air changes, become more crisp somehow (well, depending on where you are). I think of pumpkin pie and fall spices like cloves, cinnamon, nutmeg mixed with brown sugar. 3.You’re going to take me on a date. Where are you going to take me? Wherever you want, if you're buying I think I'd take you to the rebuilt library in Alexandria, Egypt. I prefer old, dilapidated buildings, but I think this is still impressive nonetheless. Then I'd get you drunk on some Chianti and feed you Alexandrian-style fried fish. 4.A Cowboy arrives on Friday, stays for 3 days, then goes back on Friday? How? At first I was inclined to ask if Friday was a woman. Then I realized it must be a horse. Maybe Friday is a female centaur. 5.The last jobs in town, the kids are hungry, so you need to make up your mind between sales or customer service call centre, which one? Customer service call centre, but only because I have the experience. I hate sales. In fact, both jobs would suck. 6.If a tree falls in a desert, will anyone hear it? Not over the sandstorm. 7.Your Grandma has been given 6 months to live but you have been told that she doesn’t know this and you mustn’t say. When she asks you straight out – what do you do?
I hate this question. I'd probably not say anything because I would argue and fight with the time frame given to me. I really don't like it when they do that. They gave my dad, who has bone cancer, 2 years to live, and here we are 5 years later. He's getting a stem cell transplant next month and they say it will increase his life span another 3-5 years, maybe. I think they really need to stop giving such deadlines. It's terrible.

The stars, I liked the stars bit. MVM, yes, a bad question, maybe badly written, too. Actually a doctor said to me the same thing you just did - they prefer not to give out timescales because so often they are wrong. You were right about the horse. IP: Logged |

1. Your Christmas gift: a book or a bottle? A tattered, worn book that has that lovely musty, old smell. 2. Which season? Autumn. Everything dies. 3.You’re going to take me on a date. Where are you going to take me? To a stone-walled English church late in the evening. We can peruse through the cemetery and watch the cold sunset. Then we can kick through the leaves and swap life stories. Then head in to the Confessional and make Jesus blush. ;} 4.A Cowboy arrives on Friday, stays for 3 days, then goes back on Friday? How? *eye twitch* 5.The last jobs in town, the kids are hungry, so you need to make up your mind between sales or customer service call centre, which one? Why do I have to get a job? Those little brats can work! There's gotta be a pimp around here somewhere... 6.If a tree falls in a desert, will anyone hear it? The person who chopped it down will. 7.Your Grandma has been given 6 months to live but you have been told that she doesn’t know this and you mustn’t say. When she asks you straight out – what do you do? Tell her. Then take her to a Chip & Dale's. Men in bikinis always cure the blues. IP: Logged |

LalaTo a casino? I'm thinking Vegas. I'm thinking you're ploughing him (maybe the cowboy with the timing problem?) with some liquor? I just want to see the wedding pics from the Lil' Elvis Chapel of True Love. Oh, and the looks on your faces first thing next morning. IP: Logged |

1. Your Christmas gift: a book or a bottle? Pick.BOTTLE. A Book lasts longer, but wine much more fun. You can share wine in a more immediate way, which is what Christmas is all about. Ahhh. 2. Which season? Say why if you feel inclined. Autumn. I love the sun and love the snow, rain too. With a dry period in between, you get most conditions in shorter burst. Would rather heat up indoors than attempt to cool down. 3.You’re going to take me on a date. Where are you going to take me?
WALK. Somewhere nice, quiet. 4.A Cowboy arrives on Friday, stays for 3 days, then goes back on Friday? How? Uh? 5.The last jobs in town, the kids are hungry, so you need to make up your mind between sales or customer service call centre, which one? Bounce straight on down to that customer service job. 6.If a tree falls in a desert, will anyone hear it? Possible. 7.Your Grandma has been given 6 months to live but you have been told that she doesn’t know this and you mustn’t say. When she asks you straight out – what do you do? YEAH. Its her life. Kind of good that she knows, if she wants to. A bit rude to not tell her. IP: Logged |

If he can string two words together and spell them correctly.... I don't think she needs much more than that. Of course, I'd like her take on that. There'll be more than two syllables. No need to lay bets. IP: Logged |

Lala, the date is with me, so we can get married if you like as it will be null and void next day when we sober up. quote: 2. Which season?Autumn. Everything dies.
Right on the tail of the 'sweet sweat of Apollo' you give me more than hope for the youth of today, most of whom depress me with their drive to be lawyers, businessmen or WAGS. Sweet Sweat of Apollo, I am going to use that to try and seduce someone, don't tell him I asked this but do you think AG will go for that line? But, fickle Gemini that I am, Coffee's walk outdoors and warming up with wine inside after does sound quite appealing. IP: Logged |
