Well, the tapping heat pipe has officially driven me crazy(er). I wish I had heard it when we were looking at this place, because then I would have passed. I just can’t ignore it.

Anyway, I’ve gotten up enough energy to try the Friday Five for this week. Having no cable to veg in front of has helped. (That is driving me crazy(er) too.)

1. What’s the most daring thing you’ve ever done?
Not much really, as I don’t like risk. Trying to find my way home alone on the subway today was pretty daring. So was moving out of my parent’s home and in with quanta in another city. It could easily have not worked out, and then I would have had nowhere.

2. What one thing would you like to try that your mother/friend/significant other would never approve of?
Being me, totally. I don’t know what everyone would think if I really was me. I would be a mother, a writer, some one who was creative. But, I think the changes would be to much.

3. On a scale of 1-10, what’s your risk factor? (1=never take risks, 10=it’s a lifestyle)
Maybe a 3, but that might be high. I hate risk. It rarely turns out right.

4. What’s the best thing that’s ever happened to you as a result of being bold/risky?
Having things work out with quanta, and being engaged, is the best thing that came from risk. It was risky to get involved in another relationship, and it was risky to tell him I wanted to move in with him. But it worked out.

5. … and what’s the worst?
Just about everything else.

Thankfully our moving arrangements have finally been settled. The madness starts about noon tomorrow, and we can move into the new place that evening. Unfortunately, if we do that it won’t be cleaned. Fortunately, the previous tenant was neat, and my mom and I will be going down before the moving truck to do the cleaning.

We will be without internet access this weekend. 🙁 But, early Monday morning I should be back online in TO. And, hopefully, nearly everything will be unpacked.

Anyway, on to the Friday Five.

You have just won one million dollars:

1. Who do you call first?

My parents. My dad plays the lottery all the time, and he would just die if I won! (I never play the lottery.)

2. What is the first thing you buy for yourself?

A big, but not too big, house and all new furnishings for it. I’d buy it today, because I don’t want to move again.

3. What is the first thing you buy for someone else?

I’d buy my parents a house. They have worked hard all their lives and the deserve something nice.

4. Do you give any away? If yes, to whom?

With the winnings only being one million, that is a little hard. That isn’t really a lot of money in the grand scheme of things. I really don’t know.

5. Do you invest any? If so, how?

I would, but I don’t know how because I know very little about investing. I’d like quanta figure that out.

It’s Friday again, and that means it is time for another Friday Five. This one was actually pretty difficult for me. It just goes to show how out of touch I am with myself.

At this moment, what is your favorite…

1. …song?
Extreme – More then Words… I think. I’m not sure. I listened to about six songs before I decided. But… I don’t know.

2. …food?
Something potatoe. Probably french fries.

3. …tv show?
CIS, although I don’t watch it very often. (And no more cable after the 31st! Whaa!)

4. …scent?
Oh, this is tough. I like to wear a raspberry scent, and I love the cologne quanta wears (Obsession). I also love vanilla scented candles and nag champa incense.

5. …quote?
