8 questions for me :: 8 questions for you

 I was tagged last week by Mandy of Chocolate and Cream Cake to complete a bloggy questionnaire.
Here's a little rundown on the "rules" before moving on.
1. You must post the rules.
2. Answer the questions the tagger set for you in their post.
3. Create eight new questions to ask the people you’ve tagged. 
4. Tag eight people with a link to your post.
5. Let them know they’ve been tagged.
Now onto finding out eight random things about yours truly. :)

1. What's the best gift you've ever received?
Well, the obvious answer would be my kiddos, but I won't be cliche.
It would probably be the DSLR camera that the hubs bought years ago.
Not only was it a nice present, but it was a complete surprise, as well as a "just because" gift.
2. What book are you most looking forward to being released?
Ooh, tough one. There are multiple series that I'm waiting on sequels to.
One that ended the second book on a complete cliffhanging moment was the Delirium series by Lauren Oliver.
I'm anxiously awaiting the third (and final) book, Requiem.
C'mon March 2013! 
3. If you had the superpower that allowed you to shapeshift into an animal—but it could only be one animal—which animal would you choose?
The first animal that came to mind was a cat. 
They are fast, smart and can jump high.
Plus, they're feisty.
 
4. What cancelled TV show would you most like to see rebooted?
Hmmm....Charmed. I miss that show like whoa! 
5. What's your dream vehicle?
Some kind of old muscle car.
Like maybe what Mr. Dean Winchester drives.
A '67 Chevy Impala.

6. Would you rather travel forward in time or backward?
I'm kind of split on this one.
I guess I would like to go back in time just a bit more.
The main reason to go forward would be to see what all of my family and friends are up to.
Yes, I'll choose back.
I'd love to see all of the things, places and people that I've heard about.
 
7. What is your favorite shape or pattern?
 My current favorite pattern is chevron.
How trendy of me, right?! ;)
So, I guess my favorite shape would be a triangle. 
8. If you could trade places for one week with a famous (or quasi-famous) person, who would you choose and why?
 JK Rowling
I just want to know what it's like to be that imaginative and brilliant.
And to be British, of course.

Now for my 8 questions....
1. If you could only read one book for the rest of your life, what would it be?
2. Would you rather always be under dressed or overdressed?
3. What shoe do you put on first?
4. Pepsi or Coke?
5. Do you sleep with your bedroom door open or closed?
6.  What is one talent you wish you had?
7. Is your personality like that of your astrological sign?
8. If you could only save one keepsake, what would it be?

I don't know how many people really follow my blog.
So, I'll just tag a few.

1. Ang from Words and Sounds
2. Jess from Jessica Monnich Photography
3. DeAnna from Cloudlessblue
4. Cheyloe from Pineapples and Toesocks
5. Leilani at Soleil Selene

If you want to add this to your blog, feel free.
Or even do the answers in the comments.
I look forward to reading everyone's responses.

xoxo.

    1. 1. What's the best gift you've ever received?

      The time you surprised me by putting a book in my car that I mentioned in passing that I wanted and putting a love note in it.

      2. What book are you most looking forward to being released?

      None. Just looking forward to reading all the ones I already have.

      3. If you had the superpower that allowed you to shapeshift into an animal—but it could only be one animal—which animal would you choose?
      Bear. One word: hibernation. And they're badass!

      4. What cancelled TV show would you most like to see rebooted?

      Arrested Development or Star Trek: Next Generation

      5. What's your dream vehicle?

      Meh. A car is a car. That get you from one place to the next. As long as it runs well and is comfortable I'm cool. Something that's easier to park in a garage than my truck would be nice.


      6. Would you rather travel forward in time or backward?

      Backward. Traveling forward would just make me depressed. Either the world is too fucked up too live in or it's so awesome that it makes this one seem great. Plus there is so much from history that I would like to see how it really went down.

      7. What is your favorite shape or pattern?

      People have favorite shapes and patterns?

      8. If you could trade places for one week with a famous (or quasi-famous) person, who would you choose and why?

      My wife. Not famous but I'd like too know what it's like walking in your shoes and seeing through your eyes. I imagine it'd transform me more than anyone else, and for the better. That sounds sappier than it's intended to.
