Interview!

1. Why is Cassandra cursed? It refers to the Cassandra of Greek mythology. She was a mortal whom Apollo himself, wishing to gain her love, promised to give the gift of prophesy. But Cassandra, after accepted it, refused her favors, and then the god, not wishing to take back his gift, deprived her prophecy of the power to persuade. So come war, come famine, her warnings went unheeded and those around her suffered as a she watched helpless.
As a uber liberal would-be politico, in my more obnoxious moments, I feel a kinship with her.

2. If you could wake up tomorrow as a different person would you? And if so, who would you want to be?

Yes, I have many regrets. If I could switch, I'd choose Natalie Portman, she's young, beautiful, wealthy, talented, and graduating from Harvard this summer.

3. Pop or soda? Soda. Pop is an invention of the imagine by Mid-Westerners.

4. We're walking down the street together, I trip and land ass over tea-kettle on the ground. Do you help me up immediately or give me the Simpson's "Haw haw" first?
Um, you're not hurt...badly, right? :) Sorry, I'm a "haw haw" kind of girl...and I'd expect the same from anyone else.

5. List the last five things you did.

1. Popped Legally Blonde into the VCR.
2. Read my friends page.
3. Talked to D on the phone.
4. Drank some grapefruit juice.
5. Went for Moroccan food with H, T, and O for O's birthday.

Awwww, another missive from the little sister...

Cassandra,
First of all Steven can't even go to the icecream social at all
because he
is grounded. He can't use the phone or go out at all. He is grounded
from
Wendesday to Monday. Second of all he doesn't like to dance and I had
asked him if
he was even going to the last dance at all but he isn't. Believe me I'm
okay
there is always next year. But I am still going to the icecream social.

About your friend, did you ask mom and dad if she could stay over?
And
is she and you going to stay in me and Kara's room. It's okay with us
we could
sleep on the blow up bed in the living room. How long are you two
staying
for? When are you leaving? We don't want you to leave.

Kara and I are very excited about the wedding we get to see our niece
and
see all of our brothers and sisters. You know me and Kara will see
David and
Eric's mother, we aren't to thrilled about that, you know meeting dads
first
wife.. Kara and I look forward to meeting our family and maybe new
people of our
family. We are just glad that we will be reunited as a family again.
But we do
wish that mom would come, unfortunately she has a class that is all
day. I
told Eric that you were coming and bringing a friend along to.

Email me back.
Love
Susan
