Friday Five!
Apr. 22nd, 2005 12:40 am1. How many locations (dwellings) have you lived in?
Fourteen homes spread between two states and eight cities.
2. If you could place your dream home in any location, where would it be?
This answer changes with my mood, but currently I'm craving red wine and rolling hills, so my vote would be for Napa or Sonoma, preferably adjacent to a vineyard. It's the perfect marriage of city and country with an hint of hedonistic decadence to keep things interesting. It's also within driving distance to San Francisco and, of course, the coast.
3. In terms of the act of moving: are you a packer or a box mover?
I hate both, but since I'm such a wimp, I usually wind up packing the boxes and running errands.
4. What one item do you own that you absolutely hate to move?
My books. They're a bitch to pack, a bitch to move, and a bitch to organize.
5. What's worse: the act of moving or a routine cleaning at the dentist?
I would go the dentist one million times for all the tartar scraping they could throw at me if it meant that I'd never have to deal with moving again.
(Note: This will be my fifth year in my current apartment because I HATE, HATE, HATE moving.)
