   My sister

   Eyes

    No.
11. Say something totally random about yourself.
    My toenails are always polished.

I like this...although, I have to say...I got fixated on #8...through a Starbuck addicts eyes, it's hard to even imagine...And yes...I'm a KK girl, too!

[InterstellarLass]

I'm not an addict, but I do enjoy a chai latte from time to time. I don't do DD or KK. I'm a Shipley's girl!

[Jennifer]

What's something that really annoys you?

Preachin' to the choir today with that one, sister.

[Laurie]

I like this one! Hope you're drying out today!

The first thing I notice on the opposite sex is hands.I love big,tan hands.lol

[kenju]

I love the dance comment too. I used to be a good dancer, but now I'm woefully out of practice. I don't let it bother me though!

This is a great collection of questions...a fun way to gain insight into each other. I might try this one...or at least do it on my family email (lovelink)...they all love these sort of things...

A recovering redneck with painted toenails who looks somewhat like Deborah Winger...such a visual!

[Lora]

No Starbucks, I'm so sorry...
