What makes your best friend so special? 
Submitted by Jessmiloo.

Well, it's that silly adage:  My best friend knows everything there is to know about me and loves me anyway.  Seriously though, I trust her like no one else and she's never let me down.  She is a steadfast friend as I am to her and always will be.   I am so privileged to be her friend, much less her best friend.

Where do you get recommendations for new books to read?

I usually get recommendations from friends but if I'm in a bookstore or library, I like to look at the books that catch my eye and see if maybe I'd be interested in reading them too.

Who was the first person to give you info -- correct or not -- on how to "make babies"? 
Submitted by Manon-It-All.

Geeze.  I absolutely can't remember.  If I had to make a guess, I'd say one of my cousins on my dad's side.  I distinctly remember one of them telling me he'd show me his if I showed him mine .. I was not quite 5 years old at the time.  

When driving alone, what do you do?  Sing along to the radio?  Think about your day?  Something else?

I pay attention to traffic.  Sometimes I listen to music, sometimes not but either way, I'm doing my best to pay attention.  Sometimes it's (mentally) exhausting but I can't seem to relax since that terrible accident 3 years ago.

Where do you consider home?  Is it the place you grew up; the place you're currently living?  Why is it home?
Submitted by uncagedbird. 

I consider Colorado, in its entirety, home.  We moved here when I was 12.  My father was in the Army and before moving here, we lived in Germany, Kansas, Indiana and Texas.  Since turning 17, I've lived in Oregon, Washington and Massachusetts.  I keep coming back.  Big, blue and sunny skies, clean air, beautiful mountains, warm days and cool nights, I can't think of any other place I'd rather live ..
