One is a freelance editing project, the other is a freelance graphic design project.

The thought has crossed my mind. I may still do it someday.

A feminist blog.

Hm. Strange. I wouldn't necessarily suggest stressing about it. It's possible they entered your number incorrectly.

It depends on the kind of stress. Usually I go into Overdrive Mode where I become far more focused and organized and deliberate in order to meet a deadline or get The Thing done or whatnot. If it's more like drama/people type of stress, I tend to shut down.

I don't.

I usually get 6-8 hours. Ideally, I would get 8-10 hours a night. If I'm getting less than that, I have a difficult time functioning.

I DO. Many coffee.

Would you rather have everything you eat taste as hot as ghost peppers, or never be able to drink water ever again?

Would you rather have everything you eat taste as hot as ghost peppers, or never be able to drink water ever again?

Well. I mean. If I was never able to drink water again, then I would die in like three days. So I guess the first option. I could always go on a liquid diet and avoid eating anything altogether.

LIQUID LAVA GHOST PEPPER DIET

[Connie G.]

Then, Kait, you would die soon. Water doesn't have a lot of nutrients, ya know.

Would you rather be a toad or a donut?

[TigerShadow]

One can survive for much longer without food than without water.

What TigerShadow said. Also, you can ingest a lot of nutrients in liquid form to keep you going. You could really get all the nutrients you need without ever actually *eating* anything.


A toad.

Has Talya asked you any questions about things you didn't answer?

[kait]

Has Talya asked you any questions about things you didn't answer?

Well. I do sometimes ignore her questions if she's in one of her "ask constant questions that are fairly pointless" modes. She asks A LOT of freakin' questions these days. Like I spent an hour today answering "what are you doing mom? Where are you going? What is that? Why? What are you doing? Why? Why? Why?" every five seconds as I was getting all the stuff out to put up the Christmas tree. I do get pretty exasperated with that after awhile and will just stop answering her questions.

However, I have never ignored a question she's asked about more important things. And I don't really plan to. I just keep the answers age-appropriate.

How did you come up with your daughters name?

What other kind of names do you like?

[kait]

How did you come up with your daughters name?

What other kind of names do you like?

Well we really loved the name Talia with a hard "a" sound at the beginning like "pal." But I also had friends with a daughter who was named Talia and I don't like feeling copy catty. We also loved the name Natalya. So we decided to go for "Talya" with a soft "a" sound like "tall." The other option we had for her name was Emma. We didn't actually name her until she was out in the world and we'd met her. And we decided she was way more of a Talya than an Emma. :p

I really really love names from Greek and Roman mythology. Perseus. Athena. Andromeda. Artemis. Circe (sir-see). Semele (suh-may-lay). Etc.

I also love the names Atticus and Titus.

[Miss Friendship]

Does she have any middle names?

What's your middle name?

I really really love names from Greek and Roman mythology.

Cool. I have a Roman name, although not sure if it's from mythology.

[kait]

Does she have any middle names?

What's your middle name?

Her middle name is Quinn.

My middle name is Christina. Ultimate irony: My first and middle name together mean "pure Christian."

How was your Christmas???

How have you been???

Do you have any plans for the new year???

[kait]

YAY! QUESTIONS! My thread is no longer lonely on the second page!

How was your Christmas???

How have you been???

Do you have any plans for the new year???

It was good! I had a really great morning with my family and we opened presents and ate scones for breakfast. I had to work in the afternoon, though, so that was kind of a bummer.

I've been OK. I've had a really good month this month but now the winter blues are hitting me so that's rough.

For the actual holiday or just in general? In general, I plan to join a gym. I'll probably do that first thing next week. Also looking forward to the next season of the Bachelor which starts Monday. xD

[Eleventh Doctor]

If you had another child what would you name it? Female and male name.

What age will Talya get her first cell phone?

Rey, Finn, or Poe?

[kait]

I like the name Titus for a boy. And I don't even know for a girl ... Tim wouldn't let me name a child Athena which would be my first choice because it's pretty much the most BA name ever.

I'm not sure yet. My first instinct would be to say when she is old enough to be able to earn the money to pay for the monthly bill. But I also know kids these days and their phones and such. >.> But I would not see her getting one earlier than 10 and even then, that seems very young and makes me raise my eyebrow a bit. But if there's one thing I've learned with parenting it's that you never actually know what you'd do until the time comes. So this is definitely a wait and see type of thing.

REY. Obvi. Also Finn + Poe because I'm shipping that hardcore.

What makes you most energized?

[kait]

What makes you most energized?

Well. When my depression is really bad like it has been lately, nothing energizes me, really. It's all very blah.

But when things aren't so bad, I am energized by doing things with my family or friends, doing creative things and spending time outdoors.
