TMI Tuesday 10/25/11 with DauntlessD

1. Name 5 things you did more of before social networking (facebook, myspace, twitter, etc.)?

Wow, this one is tough. I'm in my early 40s, but computers and networking have been a part of my life since the 80s. I was doing social networking before they called it "social networking"; I even ran my own BBS for a time.

Ok, 5 things: 1, Reading novels. 2, Keeping up on the news. 3, Using the telephone for talking (wow, what a concept huh?) 4, gahh... I can't think of anymore!

2. Your house is on fire, what do you grab as you run out?

My family, my laptop and the classic, family photos that can't be replaced.

3. Are you a morning person or a night owl?

I used to be very much a night owl, but as I've gotten older I find I'm much sharper and on my game in the early morning. So now I'm in the middle, I'm almost a night owl with morning person tendencies.

a. What time did you go to bed last night? 10:30pm

b. What time did you wake up today? 6am.

4. A kid comes up to you and kicks you in the shin, what do you do?

Well if no one else was around it might be fun to teach the little runt a lesson. Maybe I'd erupt with an enormous roar and chase him around waving my arms like a crazy man. Then again if their parent is near maybe I'd just give them a scowl...

5. What three things do you never leave the house without?

Wallet, keys, phone. *yawn*

Bonus: Name a place that you visited last week that you’ve never visited before. Briefly tell us about the visit.

Madison and I visited a winery called dkcellers. I had visited many of the wineries in the area before but had never tasted at this one. I was quite a find! The wine was excellent and reasonably priced.

Thanks again to the TMI Tuesday Blog for the questions!

1. Reading novels has been the expensive trade-off for me, too. I still read, but nowhere near as much as I did before social networking started invading my life.

2. Hey, get those classic family photos scanned and stored on a flash drive and online. One less thing to have to remember.

3. You're a "night owl with morning person tendencies." At first I laughed at that as an oxymoron, but then I realized that that's me, too! By the way, going to bed at 10:30 p.m. and getting up at 6:00 a.m. is neither night owlish or morning person. LOL
