2. Tea!
Six Summits Oolong; Jasmine Dragon Phoenix Pearls (got a mug of it now); Earl Grey; Matcha; pretty much any green jasmine

Pet cause? Companion animals. Not a cute answer - just sounds like one

Blonde can be pretty. One of my friends has the most lovely natural blonde hair ever.

My work schedule is my own: I don't work.

My favorite city is the one in which I live: Mountain View. #2 is Kansas City since I don't live there any more.

Most of my friends are 15-20 years younger than I am. Is that creepy?

13. Just Happened
Some of my friends are as young as 17, which means I'm old enough to be their mothers. Most though are in the 24-29 range, which is still significantly younger than I am. They like talking politics with me (and being silly) and they're all terribly excited about my wedding (especially the shoes and the cake).

interesting person to know and converse with. Take it as a compliment.

21. Hi, lionesspriyanka!
Edited on Wed Feb-21-07 12:20 PM by Heidi
1. Do you like tea? if so what type?
Yes. I grew up on southern sweet tea and in the last few months have taken a liking to hot tea. I've lucked into a wonderful DU tea mentor who has inspired me to try white tea, which is my favorite right now.

2. Whats your pet cause?
There are a few, but economic justice, HIV/AIDS education and prison reform are the nearest and dearest to my heart.

3. Do you think blonde is a pretty hair color?
Pretty is as pretty does.

4. If you could make up your own work schedule what would it be? *(has to be 40-45 hour workweek)
I do make my own work schedule. Generally, it's 6:30 a.m. to about 4 p.m.

5. Whats your favorite city?
I've traveled, lived and worked all over the place and it'd be difficult to choose one. But if I could visit any place, it would be Lhasa, Tibet, or Dharamsala, India.

6. Ask LP any question as your sixth question.
Do you mind if I give you a hug?

33. Hmmm...let's see
1. Do you like tea? if so what type?

Basic tea, I guess. Don't drink much of it any more. In fact, I've got a ton of green tea that I meant to drink regularly, 'cos of supposed health benefits, but I've only had it a couple of times in the year since I bought the stuff. I grew up drinking tea with milk, and usually sugar, but it's been many years since I had it that way. I don't get into most herbal teas and never did take to iced tea (of any kind), even when I lived in the South (people sometimes did look at me strangely when I chose water over 'sweet tea') though for a while I drank that Arizona green tea with honey.

2. Whats your pet cause?

I guess it'd have to be, in broad terms, the environment. My erstwhile (and, undoubtedly, future) research and academic focus has been on marine systems, specifically coral reefs, and issues of special concern to me include reef degradation, large-scale cyanide fishing and blast-fishing, targeting of grouper spawning aggregations, shark finning, overfishing in general, and so on.

3. Do you think blonde is a pretty hair color?

Yes. I think they all are, though.

4. If you could make up your own work schedule what would it be? *(has to be 40-45 hour workweek)

I do. :D

But it's nowhere near 40 hours, unless you count all the prep time and the time I spend making jumpsuits, etc.

In a more 'regular' job -- something I've rarely had these past two decades, 'cos grad school and my scientific job after grad school basically had me working all day every day, but able to take almost any time off that I wanted, too) -- I'd tend to prefer working longer hours fewer days...like ten hours or more a day, to give me more days off.

5. Whats your favorite city?

Too many, in the US and elsewhere, to pick one. In the US I find that cities that begin with 'San' are usually especially nice places, though.

6. Ask LP any question as your sixth question.

How many appendages am I holding up? :P

:D

35. my answers are:


1. Do you like tea? if so what type?

I love tea. I drink green tea most often.

2. Whats your pet cause?
GLBT issues. I am currently working on a task force within my religious denomination to allow the ordination of openly homosexual clergy.

3. Do you think blonde is a pretty hair color?
I think so...although I don't like the ultra bleached blonde some brunettes strive for. It just looks odd-to me anyway.

4. If you could make up your own work schedule what would it be? *(has to be 40-45 hour workweek)
OFF on Fri, Sat. and Sun. Ten hour days M-Th-working from home.

5. Whats your favorite city?
Iowa City, IA or Madison, WI. Both great places to live, work or recreate.

6. Ask LP any question as your sixth question.
What was the most disgusting thing you've ever eaten?
