Are you happy with being settled in your life or do you need constant change to stay satisfied?

History before dinner [Nov. 10th, 2009|02:39 pm]

ask_me_anything

[dreamt]
You meet a 200 old vampire who for the moment is more interested in chatting with you than tearing your throat out (and doesn't sparkle).
You can ask them about any big event in that part of history - if they were there, what it was really like at the time. What would you ask them about?

How about if you knew they were confined to North America that whole time?

In honor of [info]icklecarriekins's birthday...


What's your favorite kind of cake? Do you like lots of decorations, like sprinkles and frosting designs, or just something simple? Bonus points for pics!

gift for 12 yr old boy? [Nov. 10th, 2009|09:22 pm]

[see_kret_nono]
 It's my mom's friend's son.
I'm in charge of getting the gift because my Mom is undergoing chemotheraphy and can't leave the house for the next few days. (and I need the gift by Friday)
His mom barely talks about him, so we don't know what he does/likes/etc. (ok. lemme rephrase: His mom cares too much abt herself and too little abt him, so he's almost never mentioned in conversations)

The budget is about $80. Money's not allowed as a gift. And his dad won't let him have stuff like ipods, psps (you get the idea...)

I think this kid is really sad, and I do feel sorry his parents are such assholes (i do have my reasons for calling them that). 
I would like to get him something nice. But am really at a loss here... =( 

ETA: Outings with his friends are a no-no as his Dad is most prob not going to let him go. And his mom has no idea what he likes. 
WTF.

I live about 20 minutes from Detroit, Michigan (Westland, for anyone who that information could be useful to). I've been here for a few months, and I'm going home (Memphis, TN) Thanksgiving weekend to visit my family.

I want to have some awesome pictures to take home to show them, and I'm thinking specifically about nature sights. Fall up here looks so different from what I'm used to at home -- just seeing the colors on some of the trees as the leaves turn on my way home from work everyday, I'm floored.

So my question for anyone who lives around here or knows the area: What do I absolutely HAVE to check out before Thanksgiving weekend, and before autumn is over more generally? I'm not averse to up to a 2-3 hour drive if it's worth it.

I think it's time for another "ask a [something]" post. Today's subject is ...

Ask a volunteer!

So if you want to know something about the people who give up their time to help others, ask it as a comment to this post. And if you're the sort of person who gives up your time, then keep an eye on this post and answer any of the questions asked in it that you want to!

Two questions to be posted by me in the comments to get things started.

Is 10:20am too early to be taking as many long sips as possible from a can of beer on a railway station platform?

Rest assured, I'm not talking about myself here, thankfully...

Olfactory hallucinations. [Nov. 10th, 2009|04:57 am]

ask_me_anything

[darksong17]
[Mood | hungry]

Does anyone else occasionally experience olfactory hallucinations? For instance, I tend to stay up really late/early at night. It's 4:58 AM right now, and I'm starving. I also happen to smell the broccoli and cheddar soup I had in the afternoon, even though I know it isn't around anymore and no one's downstairs cooking. This is not uncommon for me. If I'm hungry at night, I often smell various things cooking when there is obviously nothing being cooked. ...Am I the only one this happens to?

What's a good classical piece that starts out quiet and slowly gets louder as it progresses? I'm looking for something to wake up to.

Please ignore my mother. She asked, "Can I be goofy?" and apparently my "I guess so" was her free-for-all ticket to act'a'fool.

Do you ask anyone for birthday or Christmas presents? Is there anyone you expect to give you presents? How old are you?

Edit because I don't want to make a new entry: Do you celebrate your own birthday? With a party? With a dinner? With family, or close friends, or everyone you know?
