Friday Five, Small Update...Surprise!

1. Name one of your flaws:
~George.

2. Have you ever won first place?
~I've tied for it in writing contests, leaving me to wonder if they were contests at all, really, or just ways to get us children to feel proud about getting things published in the local newspaper. Either way, I got 5 bucks out if it!

3. Who is the last person to make you smile?
~My friend at work, Lu.

4. Describe a time when you should have tried harder:
~This question sounds so much like an interview question that I bristle at answering it. However, I should have tried harder to get good grades in school, to get my homework done. There were many times I purposely did not to homework, and I sort of regret it now that I've tried to get into a few nicer colleges. Well, nice-ish.

5. What are you good at?
~I like to think that in person I'm good at making people smile. Even if it's just to laugh at me, I love making people smile.

Home again today, but that's okay, it gives me time to make sure my Franken-dog is doing okay.

Thinking about writing another rant later. Anyone want my opinion on anything specific? I'm not promising to write about it, just wondering what you'd like to hear, or know about me even.

Oh, and we need to work on staying self-sustainable without looking to the outside to help us stay on our feet. I know a global economy IS the reality today, but we're looking out TOO much, without enough focus on our own people.

Yeah, the scary thing is, in the not-too distant future, the US won't be able to grow enough food for itself, the way things are headed. And then we'll have to rely on countries like Brazil for food. Not a good situation. It's a topic that one of my Animal Science professors likes to talk about because he's worried and wants us to be educated about it and be able to help once we're out in the 'real world'.
