From Alison
What were you doing ten years ago?
Spending summer in Melbourne, working as a locum radiographer at the Royal Children's Hospital and sitting in cafés. Oh, and taking post-dumping and ultimately ill-fated vows of celibacy so I could concentrate on my Masters degree.
What were you doing one year ago?
Stomping around Cambridge in the snow pushing Rebecca in very heavy and unwieldy three-wheeled pushchair.
What were you doing one hour ago?
Writing.
List five creative things you'd like to do this year:
- Attend a bluegrass fiddle workshop (this one's already sorted).
- Join a music group. Can't decide between classical or folk, singing or fiddling (time and energy are limited). Will see how the aforementioned workshop goes.
- Attend a creative writing course
- Get some more poems published.
- Finish the short story I've been trying to write for the last two months and can't get my head around.
List five snacks you enjoy:
- Double flat whites
- Lattes
- Black jellybeans
- PBJ sarnies
- Brazil nuts.
List five things you would do if money were no object:
- Take Jack and Rebecca on an extended family trip across Canada
- Use the time I would normally spend earning money to write
- Pay someone else to obsess about the housework
- Help those close to me who needed it
- Buy an apartment in one of the good bits of Paris.
List five bad habits:
- Harbouring grudges
- Projecting
- Demonising people
- Kibbitzing
- Drinking too much coffee.
List five things you like doing:
- Kibbitzing
- Drinking too much coffee
- Watching Rebecca sleep
- Getting completely absorbed in a piece of writing
- Time alone with beloved husband.
List five favorite gadgets:
- Coffee perc
- DVD player
- Food processor
- Mobile phone
- My PDA, if I could get the bloody thing to work properly.
Name one thing you like about yourself:
My determination.
