How are you celebrating St. Patrick's Day?
Of course wearing green!!! With a bright green scrunchy around my ponytail, green earrings and rings, and a shamrock pin on my jacket!
My irish dance school organized a lovely dinner in a pub, and after dinner we had all the tables removed and danced a lot of jigs and reels!!!!
I came home soooooo tired, but it was real fun!
What one object/thing would you take if your house were on fire?
No object or thing: I'd grab my cats (with their transport boxes, if time allows, for their safety) and run! meeeeeeeeeeow!
What is your favorite quote and why?
I can't seem to find the exact words, but I think Oscar Wilde said "A newborn baby is nothing but a digestive tube with a lot of noise at one end and scarce sense of responsibility at the other"
why? because people seem to find babies owwwwwwww sooo cuuuuute and I find them too noisy and usually smelly, and I'm looked at as an alien..... :)))))
Love it or hate it, many of you lost an hour of sleep last night due to Daylight Saving Time? Worth It? Do you like it more/less now that Daylight Saving Time occurs earlier (and later) in the year?
I absolutely HATE DST! First of all, I'm not so convinced it saves anything in energy or money. Then consider I hate summer, I'm more a fall/winter type, I love when sunsets come early and the evening is long and crispy cold.... so seeing the sun still up in the sky at 9PM beats hard on my nerves.... it means summer is coming, and for me (loved by mosquitoes, prone to sunburns and summerhater since always) that is DEFINITELY NO GOOD NEWS!
We used to have 6 months of normal time and 6 of DST, as DST used to start at the end of march and end on the last saturday of September (my birthday is sep.30th, so it was a nice b'day gift!) :)))
Since 7-8 years ago DST lasts to the last saturday of OCTOBER, and it's UNFAIR! Why 7 months out of 12??? And with only 5 of normal time? They stole me TWO months, not one!!!!
ooomph..... :(((((

I knew 5 minutes ago actor Barry Morse died on feb. 2nd. I had the lucky chance to know him in person some years ago, and I'm very grateful about this. He was a lovely, talkative, witty, interesting person. I feel so sad.
How do you feel about your birthday? Do you look forward to it and remind all your friends, or do you dread it and try to keep it a secret?
The only way to avoid aging is dying young so....
I love my birthday!!!! I feel slightly embarassed because the attention is on me, but I love feeling the loving and carig thoughts of people around me, and for my lost b'day (40th!!!) I had a lovely party on a tramway, that was more crowede with friends than in peak-time!!! we had a lor of fun and my favorite cake (bitter chocolate, walnuts and chestnuts!) And a ton of gifts too!
(and I cried a lot because I was so moved by all that affection around me...) (blush)

What do you do with the cards and letters you receive? Do you keep them all, just keep the photos, throw them away?
Inspired by jacolily.
I have to admit I throw them away almost immediately. I lread them, appreciate them, answer them. Once answered, out with in recycle paper bin. I keep all for 29 days in a month, on the 30th I throw away half of the house. Or else I'd have no more room for myself.
