Okay, I'm bored.. Answer me this:

1. What was the first book you remember enjoying as a child?
   
2. What websites do you visit regularly?
   
3. What was your favorite childhood game?
   
4. What three shows would you love to see un-canceled?
   
5. Are you a morning person or a night owl?

My Answers

1. The Great Gilly Hopkins by Katherine Paterson. I remember this book from 7th grade and thought it was hilarious, wickedly funny and catty. The book jacket was one of the best attractants, a drawing of a girl blowing a huge bubble on the front and that same girl with a burst bubble gum splat on her face on the back. I should buy this one.
   
2. I go to Bear411 (NWS!) and Livejournal daily. I also enjoy looking through Wikipedia for random stuff of interest.
   
3. Though we usually played kickball (part baseball/part soccer/part dodgeball) in the yard, I was always a bigger fan of tag.
   
4. Here are my three...
   
   
   • Dead Like Me -- I've posted about this show a lot lately, love it.
     
   • Remember WENN -- a period comedy about life in a 1940's radio station, back when they had serials and musical shows broadcast by studio actors.
     
   • Cupid -- Jeremy Piven as the god of love (sigh)
   
   
5. Though I am often at work early in the morning, I am actually more prone to staying up late. I force myself to go to bed at night out of necessity. When I'm drawing or working on something, I generally do better work in the late evening/early morning hours.

1: Go, Dog, Go! by P.D. Eastman
2: There are a SHITLOAD of online newspaper editorial pages I visit almost every day. And of course I spend an inordinate amount of time at LiveJournal. And I never miss the Astronomy Photo of the Day (http://antwrp.gsfc.nasa.gov/apod/astropix.html).
3: There's a card game called Casino that my family used to enjoy together when I was a child. There was a board game called Careers that I was rather fond of. Kickball was a neighborhood favorite in the court our family lived next to, circa 1965-1974.
4: "My So-Called Life," "Cybil," "Frasier."
5: I'm an early-bird for the most part. Definitely NOT a night-owl anymore, as often happens as one gets up in years. I prefer more leisurely mornings drinking coffee and reading the newspaper, rather than rushing around getting ready for work. So I have my clock-radio set for 5:00am, will often drift in and out of sleep listening to the BBC newshour, then I'm usually up and out of bed by 6:00am.

OMG I LOVED Careers! I always went for hearts.

And thumbs-up on Cybil! Christine Baranski made "Doctor Dick" more than just a friday night goal...

Oh I love Baranski, she was the reason to watch that show :)
