Five random questions for a Sunday afternoon:
1) Celtics, Lakers, or don't care?
CELTICS, Baby...Go KG!!
2) Tent or hotel?
Give me the tent any day.
3) Cut flowers or plants? (giving or getting)
I usually get plants, unless I know the person isn't a gardener/houseplant person. I love cut flowers, but prefer to receive plants I can put in the garden (perennials rule!!)
4) Phones: Love 'em or hate 'em?
I like the convenience of cell phones in a way, as long as not everyone on the planet has my number. I'm hoping to get cell phone service that will allow me to get rid of the landline. I hate telephones, generally.
5) What's your favorite color?
Cobalt blue - I collect cobalt glass and I'm totally hooked.

1. Okay
1) Celtics, Lakers, or don't care? - Couldn't care less, but since Boston won the first game I'm rooting for them. Why? I want the series over ASAP so that sports talk radio (which I rely on at work to keep me from dying of boredom) will discuss something else. Go, Celts, sweep the series and get sports radio back on baseball.

2) Tent or hotel? - Hotel. Give me room service and maid service any day.

3) Cut flowers or plants? (giving or getting) - I give flowers, prefer plants for myself.

4) Phones: Love 'em or hate 'em? - I only use a cell phone, and yet I still hate it. It's like a goddamned leash.

Your favorite color? - The blue on the Quebec flag.

2. Answers


1) Celtics, Lakers, or don't care? I'm from southern California originally, so GO LAKERS!

2) Tent or hotel? Hotel. Running water is one of my dearest friends.

3) Cut flowers or plants? (giving or getting) Both, either. I love plants, but often a nice bouquet can be very cheering/soothing. I like to give plants.

4) Phones: Love 'em or hate 'em? I, too, like the convenience of cell phones. I don't answer all the time, though.

5) What's your favorite color? Hard to say. I like color combinations more - green/blue, pink with orange.

Who?

Actually, my preference is a sleeping bag under the stars but I mostly use a tent now.

They both die equally quickly under my care.

10. Answers
1 - Are these American sports teams? Think this makes me "don't care".

2 - Hotel, not many camp sites in city centres - more importantly I'm not good without an en-suite and breakfast laid on.

3 - Give cut flowers; don't tend to be given either.

4 - Mostly hate - but always have my mobile on me, use it more for texts than calls.

5 - Blue, different shades for different moods.

13. OK
1) Celtics, Lakers, or don't care? Don't care, not my sport.
2) Tent or hotel? Hotel.
3) Cut flowers or plants? (giving or getting) Plants. There's a thing among prostitutes - cut flowers are bad juju, beauty cut down in it's prime.
4) Phones: Love 'em or hate 'em? Mixed. Useful but I own them, they don't own me
5) What's your favorite color? Black. But I love cobalt glass. I wish I still had my cobalt perfume bottle from the 20s. Very art deco, very modern. But I gave it to my lover cuz he liked it.

Khash.

1) Celtics, Lakers, or don't care?
Celtics, of course

Depends, are we in the woods or not? If so, tent. If in the city, hotel please.
3) Cut flowers or plants? (giving or getting)
N/A
4) Phones: Love 'em or hate 'em?
I think you meant cell-phones. They're good for a few things, but I prefer the landline version for long talks.

Green, for now.

15. I'll play!
Edited on Sun Jun-08-08 06:02 PM by latebloomer
If it's sports, I'm totally indifferent.

Hotel, and as luxurious as I can possibly afford. (My girlfriend spent her wedding night in a tent. This does not compute for me.)

I usually give cut flowers- right now I'd like a flowering hanging plant to add to the ones I have- the lazy woman's substitute for gardening.

Phones are a useful pain in the ass- usually when a friend calls me I'm not in the mood to talk so I'll call back later. Seem to be getting a million nuisance calls too,lately- have to renew my Do Not Call thing.

BTW, there is evidence connecting cell phone use to brain tumors-- try not to use them too much!-- Don't give up your land line.

The color purple.

16. My answers...
1) Celtics, Lakers, or don't care?
Don't care. I am not a fan of professional sports - drives my hubby crazy!

2) Tent or hotel?
When I was younger I preferred camping. Now I like the conveniences of a hotel room.

3) Cut flowers or plants? (giving or getting)
I love having cut flowers in the house, but also like receiving plants for the garden. Usually I send cut flowers.

4) Phones: Love 'em or hate 'em?
Hate 'em, but could not survive without them.

5) What's your favorite color?
blue - all shades.
