4-little kid books rival my collection.

1. Me, and yes to both.
2. Technically, it would be "This is really neat"

thinking of your swoon man

6. Is this a trick question?
Posted by:Mrs. Fun | August 29, 2007 at 11:54 PM
1. I do. Haven't taught the cat to cook yet, but it's next on my list.
2. Me in the park, taken by a random stranger with a nice camera.
3. My going rate is $40 an hour for my attention, so I guess I'd charge that.
4. My next significant other will want to mud wrestle me for bookshelf space.
5. Smooth.
6. I'd invite the love of my life, but no one else.
Bonus: strikes me the questions all assume we've got love interests in our lives, and possibly that we'll be cohabitating.
Posted by:Hannah | August 30, 2007 at 12:52 AM
1. I do all of the cooking. I simply do not trust what my cat might prepare.
2. I rarely send pictures, the last one was of me, during the third week in June.
3. Oh, I would do it for free. Really, it's a pleasure.
4. Despite the fact that he is an avid reader (it is not possible for me to be interested in a man who is not a reader), I would still require more shelf space for books. Of that I am quite certain. And yes, he agrees.
5. Passionate.
6. Of course. This question was written simply to amuse myself, and it worked.
Bonus: Yes, I notice everything about the questions on this blog. I also notice every single answer.
Posted by:Michele | August 30, 2007 at 01:30 AM
1. I do, by choice. I LOVE to cook.
2. It's been so long ago, I can't even remember. I don't often send pictures.

5. Familiar.
6. Probably.
Bonus Question Worth Triple Points: Yes.
Posted by:Mamacita | August 30, 2007 at 02:45 AM
1. I do. And after 42 years, I'd love a break!
2. A graphic I had designed for the cover a book my cousin was writing.
3. Nothing--I'm such a daydreamer I'd forget to bill anyone.
4. This house has more books than the local public library. It's probably a tossup, but I'd probably win.
5. Aussie
6. What's the point of having a romantic weekend alone?
Posted by:Bev | August 30, 2007 at 03:18 AM
I do, by choice.
Hmmm... I think it was fabric options for my cousin.
$100 for each daydream I share! It'll be worth it though. :D I promise! Heehee.
Definitely me! He fills the toy shelves with his collectibles, I fill the bookshelves with my various paperbacks and hardbound babies.
Comforting.
Just the person I plan to be romantic with!
Posted by:toni | August 30, 2007 at 04:53 AM
1. i do, i love cooking, it's my stress reliever.
2. "heading off to school"
3. no less than $165 an hour

6. it would probably be me, hubby and the boy!
Posted by:monique | August 30, 2007 at 08:33 AM
1. I do most of the cooking, and I suppose it is both by necessity AND choice. I love to cook (though my fussy family limits what I can make, so I offer to cook for others often!)
2. It was the "head down floor" positiong which is a way to use saline solution in order to get the most effectiveness from it. It is useful, particularly for Parosmics (those of us who suffer from olfactory disorders - I have Phantosmia - google it!)
3. I probably wouldn't do well - I tend to have "daymares" and not daydreams"...no one wants to pay for BAD things...
4. Me...indubitably! While he has many books, they are all (or mostly) college/school related.
5. Unique
6. Just the man of my life...wouldn't be romantic without him!
Posted by:Linda | August 30, 2007 at 09:31 AM
1. That would be me -- I'm the better cook, and unless I'm too tired, I enjoy it.
2. George Costanza from "Seinfeld."
3. $100 easily. I'm really good at it.
4. Me, without a doubt.
5. Gentle
6. You mean like a threesome? ;)
Bonus Question Worth Triple Points: Someone's thinking about nesting, methinks.
Posted by:Finn | August 30, 2007 at 11:30 AM
1. i do. it is by both choice and necessity.
2. a dog sitting on a cat.
3. $500. i am a professional after all!
4. i dont have a significant other so i guess it would be me.
5. meow!
6. um.... i don't think it would be very romantic if it were just me.
Bonus: it looks like you are thinking about sharing your space.
Posted by:barbie2be | August 30, 2007 at 12:03 PM
1. me - I like to cook and I take care of things on the homefront, so it's necessary too.
2. hmmm...pictures of the kids?
3. I'm a very poor day dreamer, so my price would have to be low...$0.25/hr?
4. split about 50/50, though I'm starting to read more of his books, which makes it an even more difficult calculation!
5. boyish
6. indeed! but he'd have to have a boyish voice.
7. bonus - barbie2be nailed it...
Posted by:anniebird | August 30, 2007 at 12:21 PM
1. MY GF does because I generally refuse to do anything useful after about 9pm and that's when we tend to eat (plus she's loads better at it than me)
2. The trees in our garden which were being trimmed and my GF wanted to see how it was going from work.
3. Not much. I don't daydream much. My nighttime dreams however are fabulous - full technicolour, dramatic and action packed!
4. Oh me, definitely. She has about 12, I have about 400.
5. Loving
6. My GF or else I'd be for it :-)
Bonus Question Worth Triple Points: Have you noticed anything unusual about Michele's questions today? Erm...nope!
Posted by:Jo-less | August 30, 2007 at 12:35 PM
1. Me. Necessity.
2. Does a comic strip count? Otherwise, our new shed. Really.
3. $100. And I'd only work a couple of hours per day.
4. Ooh, that's tough. It's probably pretty even.
5. His.
6. Duh! I'm not much of one for solitary romance.
Bonus: Could it be Valentine's Day in August?
Posted by:Bluegrass Mama | August 30, 2007 at 02:30 PM
I do most of the cooking. I feel that if I'm a SAHM, that I should. He works all day to "bring home the bacon" I should cook it...right?
The "pebbles" look hehe
Definitely $100 at least. and I would need a raise after the first 30days.
My Dh for sure! He has a habit of buying books and all they do is collect dust. "But one day hes going to read them" Hmm You know how many yrs Ive been hearing that one?
Familiar
well yeah, it wouldn't be much of a romantic weekend if it were just me...lol
Hmm Maybe it has something to do with someone you have your eye on!?
Posted by:Tiffany | August 30, 2007 at 03:21 PM
1. My wife does most of the cooking. She seems to have more skill and patience for it and I use that time to accomplish other chores. So I guess it's both.
2. I don't attach many pictures (I use links) but I did include a image of the BOB Revolution Stroller for my wife to see.
3. That's what I daydream about.
4. We tend to take equal amounts of bookshelf space but I think it tips slightly in my favor. However, she's read more of her books.
5. my wife's voice = gentle
6. Of course, my wife.
Bonus: Michele's questions seem to have a common theme, but then, so do my answers.
Posted by:archshrk | August 30, 2007 at 04:05 PM
1. Me, both choice & necessity.
2. "My Little Rockstar"
3. How can you put a price on your dreams?
4. Me (He only reads in the 'wc')
5. ENGLISH
6. Only my husband...(OOHHH, what fun!!)
Bonus: Romance on the mind???
Posted by:flleenie | August 31, 2007 at 01:09 AM
1. Both of us.
2. Jack discovers water.
3. I need to consult my financial planner.
4. That's about equal. Seems we are both book fanatics.
5. Sexy
6. Romance isn't any fun alone.
Bonus: hmmmm... swooning on the mind?
