What's your dream career?
Submitted by Something.
Having a place right on the beach somewhere where I throw pots. Maybe selling the pottery through my own website, since designing websites is what I do today.
And I know..."then why aren't you doing that right now?" - Too chicken, not financially prepared enough, and I want to make a difference where I work right now, even though the commute is killing me.

How do you eat your pizza: folded, flat or with a fork and knife?
Submitted by danimass.
Definitely flat. And no candy-ass flat-crust pizza for me. Deep dish pizza all the way. My fave is Pizza Hut's Personal Pan pizza, Supreme, with no green peppers. Mmmm... mmm...good.
Did you dress up today? See any good costumes?
Sure did. JR and I built a huge camera big enough for 2 people, and we went as hugecamera.com - we were taking pictures through the "lens" and uploading them via wireless to flickr and hugecamera.com. Despite navigational difficulties (at 5 feet wide and 3 feet deep) and dangerous internal temperatures, we had a great time and got lots of people who wanted to pose with us. And we saw some great costumes: Domo-kun, a leather-daddy (at a work party - ass-less chaps and all), the cast of Clue, the evolution through all the Michael Jacksons, and this year's obligatory Borats.
What is your favorite scent?
Submitted by Erinen.
Vanilla. Hands down. No contest. I'm extremely sensitive to scents - anything floral gives me a huge headache. Actually, a lot of scents give me a headache. Sometimes I'll get a lotion or candle or even a deodorant home, and even though it smelled okay in the store, I'll have to throw it away because it affects me so badly.
But I've discovered thatmost stuff that smells like food doesn't give me a headache. So all of my candles are vanilla, cinnamon, sugar cookie, butter, pumpkin spice, etc. (side benefit: it smells like I'm baking something delicious.) And of course the only lotion I wear smells just like vanilla (even though it's called Angel Food Cake).
What's your sign? What do you think of astrology and horoscopes?
I'm a Pisces. Astrology and horoscopes fall into the same category of feelings as I have towards fortune cookies: I tend to believe them when they match up with something either going on in my life or something I want to have going on in my life and they indicate a good outcome. Otherwise, they're crap.
I know it must not seem possible, but I may actually have found another forum for my thoughts and opinions... I've been hearing really great things about this service, and it's created by some people I really have a lot of respect for (sixapart.com), so I thought I'd try it out. I think it might prompt me to provide content every day via the "Question of the Day" (QotD). We'll see how that works out. It is currently early on a cloudy Sunday morning here in SF, and I'm up before the rest of the house, so what better time to answer my first QotD...
