1. Did you ever go to summer camp as a child?
an
No.
2. Do you have the TV or radio on when getting ready in the morning, or do you prefer silence?
Quiet, please!
3. How often do you run late?
Rarely, and somebody better be bleeding or need the ER to make me late, LOL! I was taught early on as a kid it was rude and disrespectful to be late. And stealing from one's employer or from one's education, etc. I was conditioned early to be at least 10-15 minutes early, just to be safe. All these decades later, that is still my habit, be it business or pleasure. :P
4. What is one material thing that you couldn't live without?
Computer.
5. What is something that you've always wanted to learn but haven't yet?
How to draw.
6. What religion were you raised with?
Cradle Catholic.
7. What was your nickname as a child?
Didn't have one.

It is the breath of a buffalo in the wintertime.
It is the little shadow which runs across the grass
and loses itself in the sunset.

All dogs need to be evaluated as individuals."

1. Did you ever go to summer camp as a child? *not in the shipped off to a camp in the woods sense. I did go to a summer program one year though it was at the school and we did activities and crafts for a couple hours a day 3x a week.
2. Do you have the TV or radio on when getting ready in the morning, or do you prefer silence? *if I have anything on it would be iTunes.

1. Did you ever go to summer camp as a child?
No, but I always wanted to. My friends went, I read about it in books, saw it on TV, and I was just curious!
2. Do you have the TV or radio on when getting ready in the morning, or do you prefer silence?
It depends on the day. Usually it's silence, but sometimes I just need some music. No TV though!
3. How often do you run late?
Sadly, almost always. I know it's rude, and I hate it, but I can't seem to not be late no matter how hard I try. Oddly enough, I have a friend that runs on the exact same schedule as I do. We may be late getting together, but we always arrive at the same time.
4. What is the one material thing you could not live without?
Right now I would say this laptop, it's been a sanity saver during these last few weeks of bed rest!
5. What is something that you've always wanted to learn but haven't yet?
Languages, too many to list! And not just passable tourist speaking, but actually fluent.
6. What religion were you raised with?
Not really raised with any religion. My mom was Lutheran, my dad Episcopalian, but neither really led me down any particular path. We did attempt to go to the local Episcopal church, but didn't last more than 6 weeks. It was more of a social status thing than being there for any kind of worship. Very eye opening.
7. What was your nickname as a child?
I had two until I was about 4: Horsey-Butt and Squirrel. Since then I've been nickname proof, I don't know what it is. I once hung out at a coffee shop with 4 other Jamies, I came in in the middle, so logically I'd be given a nickname, right? Nope, I was the only Jamie just called Jamie!
