My fav album is......
1Heart1Way 04-10-2007, 10:03 AM My all time favorite album EVER is August and Everything After - Counting Crows. It has to be the most depressing album of all time, but for some reason, I can always find a song on that album to match my mood. My current favorite album is Back to Bedlam - James Blunt.
Lisa - I lived in Hilton Head in my younger days, so I have a lot of good memories of that place. My mom and best friend still live out there and its just one of those places that feels like home to me. Also, to me, there is no better smell in the world that a Carolina salt marsh. I could stand on the docks that overlook the marsh and just melt into that warm, earthy odor. I'm totally in love with the Lowcountry.

Bookworm1 04-12-2007, 01:54 PM My favorite animal is........ I am an animal lover, but I am definitely more of a cat person! I lOVE big cats like lions and tigers too, and I am amazed at how similar their mannerisms are to domestic cats! I like that cats are independent, and have minds of their own! Just like me! LOL I think that cats get a bad rep! Cats are affectionate animals too, they just have a more subtle way of showing their love than dogs do!

SnakeCharmer 04-12-2007, 02:09 PM My fav room in the house is the kitchen.. there is so much to share with the people you love in that room. i remember my greatgrandmaw teaching me how to cook just like her when i was little. remember all the family sitting around the table to talk about their day, at night, everyone getting together to play cards. it's just a room that "connects people"

My favorite place to nap would have to be in bed..I'd say couch, but the T.V. would keep me up..lol
your fav. fantasy creature is.....
Bookworm1 04-14-2007, 11:53 PM My favorite fantasy creature is.... a vampire! I have always had a fascination with the darker side of life, and I can relate to the vampire's status as an "outsider" who is misunderstood. There is also something so erotic about them! I actually thought of getting a tatoo of a female vampire sinking her teeth into my neck! My boyfriend liked that idea! ;)
I am also nocturnal, so I can relate to them in that sense as well! I usually can't fall asleep until the sun shines through the window! Oh, and they also live for an eternity which is a bonus! I think it would be so awesome to be able to see how things evolve over time, and since I am terrified of death, it would be a wonderful thing to never have to face my own mortality. And I could also save my loved ones from death, by sinking my teeth into their tender flesh!
My favorite sexual fantasy is.....
Lisa
estranged_emma 04-15-2007, 04:38 AM If I said it I would get banned!

CS loves JW 04-16-2007, 07:08 PM You know, I was thinking about this the other day -- I think this topic is worthy of a thread all by itself. We have TOOOO many, but our favorite is "When You Lie Next To Me". Its funny, though, because he tried to talk to me about songs when I was down there, and I was like a zombie, staring at him, going "Uh-huh, yeah, sure, I like that." I have no idea what else he said, but I'm sure it was something good!

What is your favorite family tradition?
Lisa
CS loves JW 05-17-2007, 09:44 AM I really don't have a whole lot of family traditions. Unfortunately, my family just really isn't all those close. The only things I can think of are things that are just Southern traditions in general, like having "homecomings" at the church where our family is buried, which is like a day to get together, bring a lot of food, and clean up the cemetery and put out fresh flowers and stuff. We always did that. Oh, and summers at the river down in Demopolis (the Alabama people will know where I am talking about), just drinking beer, having campfires, going swimming and having good ole' country times with all the extended family. Ok, so I guess maybe we do have a few little traditions....
Favorite state in the U.S.?
niuyoricanpr 05-17-2007, 11:10 AM New Yok, New Yok, of course, LOL.

Afterwards, I have a few errands to run, and I am in the middle of reading "The Prisoner's Wife" which I just picked up from the library the other day, and I am really into it! Me and a few of the members on WAP(another similar forum that I frequent) started a book discussion group, and this is our very first book! Aside from that, napping with my feline friend! So exciting huh? LOL

Favorite name for a little girl?
Lisa
CS loves JW 05-24-2007, 12:56 AM Well, I'm fond of my little girl's name, for obvious reasons, but I don't want to post it publicly. I also like the name Leah, though. I have done the "traditional" thing as far as naming my kids is concerned. I guess I am just old-fashioned to an extent!
Favorite Greek god/goddess?
Bookworm1 05-24-2007, 02:13 AM I LOVE the name Abigale for a girl, which is strange, because that is a rather old-fashioned name, and I am DEFINITELY a modern woman! I think I like the name so much, because that is the name of my favorite character on the show "ER"! Doctor Abigale Lockheart(she recently got married, but kept her own name! I was so excited! I know, I'm odd!). She is a strong, independent, ambitious woman! She recently became a new mom, but didn't give up her career! Another bonus! And her and Luca have a very egalatarian relationship! Abby is no "old-fashioned gal"! She isn't afraid to speak her mind, and demand that her male colleagues treat her with respect! So whenever I think of the name Abigale, I think of her! :)

Still have a little left, and I am saving it for another special occassion! Sent him a little love note last week on pretty stationary, and spritzed some of that on it, along with a lipstick kiss(he loves those!) ;) You ladies ever do stuff like that?? God, I wonder what that BITCH of a mail room "lady" must think of me. On second thought, who gives a rats fat behind! LOL :p

Fav. girl name/boy name?
Bookworm1 05-25-2007, 11:50 AM My favorite name for a girl is Abigale, which is a more traditional name, but I also love some of the unique, creative names that some celebrities give their children! Like for example, Demi Moore and Bruce Willis have three daughers, two of which are named Scout and Rumour! LOVE It! And another favorite, is Gypsy Rose(isn't that sooo beautiful?). That is what Soleil Moonfry(remember her? Punky Brewster?!) named her little girl. I like Suri too, which is the name of Katie Holmes and Tom Cruise's little girl!
For some reason, the name Damien for a boy really appeals to me!

CS loves JW 05-30-2007, 07:57 AM My all time favorite poet is Pablo Neruda. I have loved him from the first time I knew his name and read the first poem that was ever exposed to me, and that's one of the reasons I fell so hard for J. In one of our early letters, I had NOT told him yet about my fanatical obsession for Neruda, and he quoted me a line of his poetry, and my heart just MELTED. :-) Great minds think alike, I guess. So, I can't pick just one, but here is one of my favorites:
If You Forget Me
I want you to know
one thing.
You know how this is:
if I look
at the crystal moon, at the red branch
of the slow autumn at my window,
if I touch
near the fire
the impalpable ash
or the wrinkled body of the log,
everything carries me to you,
as if everything that exists,
aromas, light, metals,
were little boats
that sail
toward those isles of yours that wait for me.
Well, now,
if little by little you stop loving me
I shall stop loving you little by little.
If suddenly
you forget me
do not look for me,
for I shall already have forgotten you.
If you think it long and mad,
the wind of banners
that passes through my life,
and you decide
to leave me at the shore
of the heart where I have roots,
remember
that on that day,
at that hour,
I shall lift my arms
and my roots will set off
to seek another land.
But
if each day,
each hour,
you feel that you are destined for me
with implacable sweetness,
if each day a flower
climbs up to your lips to seek me,
ah my love, ah my own,
in me all that fire is repeated,
in me nothing is extinguished or forgotten,
my love feeds on your love, beloved,
and as long as you live it will be in your arms
without leaving mine.
I also love, love, love Charles Bukowski, which is funny because he is like the antithesis of Pablo Neruda with his dark cynicism, but I guess I'm the same way too -- I have a dual nature. I can be a hopeless romantic and a jaded a$$hole all at the same time. Here's one of his I like:
Be Kind
we are always asked
to understand the other person's
viewpoint
no matter how
out-dated
foolish or
obnoxious.
one is asked
to view
their total error
their life-waste
with
kindliness,
especially if they are
aged.
but age is the total of
our doing.
they have aged
badly
because they have
lived
out of focus,
they have refused to
see.
not their fault?
whose fault?
mine?
I am asked to hide
my viewpoint
from them
for fear of their
fear.
age is no crime
but the shame
of a deliberately
wasted
life
among so many
deliberately
wasted
lives
is.

It sits on the night table right beside my bed, and sometimes, when I am REALLY missing him, or I am just feeling sad and lonely for whatever reason, I cling to him, and he comforts me!
