As for your Qs

Punani asks:

What is your favorite flavor of ice cream? My absolute favorite flavor is mint chocolate chip, plain ole strawberry is a close second.

My favorite part of summer is that first hand dipped cone. MMM.

What is the best thing that happened to you today? Today has actually been a pretty wonderful day! We went out to billiam's dad's cabin to spend the night so I woke up early and took a hike down to the river, just me and a horde of mutts. It was absolutely beautiful out with that first chill of fall in the air and absolute silence except for the splashing of the girls in the river water. I sat on the bank and thought about everything and nothing all at once and wished that the moment could stretch on and on.


Of all your sweet dresses, which is your favorite? Oh this is a hard one. I've actually been trying to not buy as many *eek* so I've been revisiting some favorites. Among them:



I have a few others that I adore but haven't really taken pictures of them yet. Among them a fifties prom dress and a sweet little chiffon one. Pictures of those. Soon. I promise.


For-Tart asks:
1. Is insanity just "not following the customs of your society" or is insanity something universal in all cultures? I believe Albert Einstein said it best when he said, "insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results". While I don't think any one-liner could possibly explain mental disesase, I suppose from my personal experience with it that I'd have to agree with Einstein. And is it univeral in all cultures? I'd think so. People may consider someone insane for eating another person where that may be culuturally accepted among some tribes. There are always extremes to contradict theories. What I refer to though would be the more recognizable aspects of mental illness such as fatigue with depression and a schiphrenic hearing voices.

2. Is "home" a physical place or an abstract idea? Can I sound wishy washy and go with BOTH? I believe that home CAN be a physical place once it is carefully nested with the possessions you love and the ones you need.


3. Are you searching for love? Yes. Who isn't?
Do I think I've found IT, the absolute defination of that word? No I don't bleieve so. I'm still looking for love in the fullest sense of the word.

(more to come)
