Blame Miste (:

If the following information is prosaic beyond belief I direct you to Miste who tagged me with the project. (: (BTW, Her answers are much more interesting)

8 Favorite TV shows:
This is nearly impossible since I have not had a TV up and working in 2 years. BUT, I can talk about what I have watched streaming, and what my former favs were.
PBS was the channel of choice, but as you will see from my later choices I'm not a "better than you" intellectual who claims only to watch what is educational. So far from it.

1-Nature (PBS) (miss it terribly)

2-Masterpiece Theater (miss it terribly)

3-American Experience (miss it terribly)

4- Antiques Roadshow (miss it terribly)

(and it's all downhill from here)

5-American Idol- Embarrassed to say I watched this for one whole season and was completely engrossed! (It was the Clay Aiken year.. fyi) I still check the news for who wins. Sad

6- Dancing with the Stars- I actually still can watch this streaming and I get equally addicted.

7-Samantha Who- I recently found this and watched old episodes. I enjoy the comedic look at becoming a moral person.

8-Arrested Development- Found this on Fancast. Watched the whole 3 years in a matter of weeks last fall. Loved it, which makes me see how twisted I really am.

8 Things I did yesterday

Luckily this was a Saturday

1- Made a really good pot of GF chicken and rice soup (maybe too much black pepper)

2- Spent hours in the bookstore looking for books to help someone I love very much.

3- Cleaned my 360sq ft. (it takes longer than you think)

4-Finished unpacking my bags from spring break.

5-Backed up my computer

6- Bought some upholstery fabric that is beautiful for only $3.50 per yard. (no project in mind)

7-Had tapas with my landlords and several other colleagues in the front house. (Kelly was super sweet and had some specific dishes for me)

8- Watched #6 in a series of BBC documentaries about WWII on Netflix (I LOVE those streaming movie choices)

8 Things I am Looking Forward Too.


1- Summer Break-Upwords with mom

2-Summer Break -Wildhorse

3- Summer Break-Residency in WY

4-Summer Break- Seeing Family

5-Summer Break- Visiting Friends (hint BB and Scott)

6-Summer Break- Yardwork

7-Summer Break-Being outdoors in mountains with evergreens and water

8- Summer Break 2010

8 Favorite Restaurants
This one isn't really fair given the gluten issue but...

1- San Giovanalli (not sure of the spelling) (Orvieto Italy) GF pizza to die for!

2-La Taverna Dell'Etrusco (Orvieto Italy) I had some delicious rabbit here.

3-PF Changs (USA) Good GF menu, my fav is Phils better lemon Chicken

4-Legal Seafoods (USA east Coast) Amazing GF pasta and seafood menu

5- some restuarant in NY that had GF... don't know the name but it was tasty.

And after that I'm all dried up.

8 Things on my Wish List
These are in no particular order...

1- A place that feels like home in the same place I work

2-A Deck on my house in Idaho

3-A Liver with a loooooooong life for a good friend

4-No back pain (along with a bunch of other issues I won't go into)

5- Better personal insight so I could move on with some things

6-Live closer to family and/or friends

7-A slow boatride up the inside passage

8- Play the mandolin

(I'm using my leftover 6-8 from restaurants in this catagory...because I can)

6-Skills to remodel and build!

7- Less fat, more energy

8- More faith
