Party games
I went to a fun potluck dinner party tonight at my friend Candy's house. It was SO refreshing! We've been trying to get together for several days now, and it just hasn't worked out, so when I missed her birthday dinner on Tuesday, she told me that there were no outs from the dinner party tonight.
She made this fabulous taco soup, (which I need to get the recipe for) and the rest of us filled in the empty spots. There were about 20 people there, and we had.... about 20 desserts! She had to beg us to take the uneaten sweets home with us too. Funny how those things work out.
So we played a fun game. Not a game really, but a good conversation starter. Her roommate Maria has a book of 4000 questions. So we tried a few.
Do you prefer long or short hair on the opposite sex?
What bitterness are you hiding in your heart?
Are you more likely to exaggerate, tell the straight facts, or understate a story when you relate it to others?
Or how about this humdinger: What five people would you take to a deserted island with you and why?
This is the question that has stuck with me. I'm facing a change in my social habits as a friend prepares to start dating someone seriously. :) It shouldn't throw me for a loop too bad as we've been through this before, but it has. So, while some would contemplate famous people from history or famous people from contenporary times, I've been contemplating the people in my life that are vital to my happiness and who I can't imagine my life without their influence. :) or put otherwise.. the people who leave the biggest holes when I don't get to have a daily association with them.
Austin: My best friend and confidant, thank goodness for long distance cell phone plans!! I can share anything with her and she understands, sympathizes and encourages all at the same time!
Wade: A soul mate and ego booster. He's always duely impressed with my forays into the world of geeks and more than willing to share an intelligent conversation over books, educational methods or new business ideas. The best ones happen during Harry Potter, or any movie for that matter.
Nate: Soul mate #2 who always has a new and uplifting philosophy on life and how to interface with other human beings on the planet.
Victoria: Bonding at the Beach... need I say more???
Lynnet: One of the wisest women I know, with a deep and strong testimony of the Gospel of Jesus Christ. I want to be just like her when I grow up!
There's the required five.. I could go on and on and on for a long time. I sure appreciate the people who touch my life and make me feel loved and appreciated. My life is richer for my associations with you.

My World View...
I found this at Gelati Farms... a blog I found through my sister and best friend. She's adorable, and so much fun to read about her adventures.
I found the results of the quiz fascinating, as I consider myself quite religious.

 | You scored as Cultural Creative. Cultural Creatives are probably the newest group to enter this realm. You are a modern thinker who tends to shy away from organized religion but still feels as if there is something greater than ourselves. You are very spiritual, even if you are not religious. Life has a meaning outside of the rational.
