AND THE MONDAY MISSION.

1. If you were to go on a diet (not that you should, babe, you look marvelous), which of the "fad diets" sounds the most appealing to you?
I go on the Atkins diet every now and then, and I'm on it now. I have been for about a week. It's the first time I've done it since February.

2. I only ask, because with the holidays coming up, there will be a lot more food in our house than usual. It tempts me. Maybe if I exercise I can loose some now, and eat then and have it all balance out. Do you get much exercise?
I try to use the elliptical machine every day.

3. When I was walking the other night, I noticed a rent house was being cleaned out by the landlord. Apparently the owners just took the essentials and left a lot of junk in the house. The owner had stacked piles of junk on the lawn for the sanitation collectors. But I noticed several things in that mess that maybe I could use (like a gas powered hedge trimmer). I may still go back some dark evening. Have you ever raided someone's junk pile that was left out for the garbage truck? Or gone dumpster diving? What did you find?
I saw a stack of videotapes on the street is SoHo. I never did watch them all, but the ones I saw were really boring.

4. Also in that same dumpster was the most awful shade of bright green carpet you've ever seen. Seriously, you wouldn't believe it if I showed you (and I will try to get a photo). Do you have any memories of ugly carpeting in your home or someone else's?
Not so much. But I do have a CD rack I got from Ikea, specifically because it was the most horrible, offensive shade of green I'd ever seen, and I just had to own it.

5. As summer draws to a close, it means fewer outside chores. One I won't miss at all is mowing the lawn! What summertime chores will you be glad to see go away for the winter months?
I live in a box 250 feet up in the sky, so I don't really have summertime chores. But the truth is, I'm much more apt to go outside in the winter than the summer, because I hate hot weather. That, more than anything else, is why I moved from Florida to the northeast. I would take 20 degrees over 90 degrees any day.

6. Of course, it is hard to mention fall without at least touching on football. Do you have a(ny) favorite football team(s)? Do you and your family root for the same teams to win?
I am not a sports fan. I guess if I could pick a team to win the Superbowl, I'd pick the Miami Dolphins, since that's what my family roots for.

7. I will be heading to Anaheim next month to stay a few days for a convention. It would be great to meet up with some Bloggers, but I just don't know many out there. If you were to visit California, are there any Bloggers you'd like to meet up with? (And if you are in California, then who would you like to come see you!)
The two people who introduced me to blogging are two of my best friends: Sean S. and Dav C.

BONUS: Where can you begin to make your dreams all come true on the land or on the sea?
According to "Gay Songs & Anthems," it's In the Navy (a la the Village People).
