The Person Below me.....

[SadieKate]

True for at least one film: Howl's Moving Castle. Must check out more.

TPBM is also having (or had or will have) a lovely post ride Gin & Tonic (preferably Saphire).

False, I'm having Gewutzraminer.

TPBM ran, swam, AND biked today!

[HillSlugger]

I got rained on during my bike/run brick. Does that count?

TPBM prefers a Mac

[Eden]

Yes! Mac all the way for me.

True for at least one film: Howl's Moving Castle. Must check out more.

OT - but YES! Howl is very good, but it is his last film and he was getting tired of the whole business and very ready to retire. Personally I think Princess Mononoke is his best. The animation is breathtaking and the story line is compelling. It is NOT animation for children - its actually quite graphically violent in places (though I can't recall him ever even going near sex.... though there tends to be a boy/girl interest in all the films, all of the relationships in his films are pretty innocent). I definintely put Mononoke in in my top 10 all time movies.
Other Miyazaki films to check out - Castle in the Sky, Spirited Away, Naussica - Valley of the Winds, Porco Rosso My Neighbor Totoro (this one is very much a children's film - its quite sweet)

TPBM lives on a farm

[Starfish]

TPBM lives on a farm

Does just renting an old farmhouse count? They do farm the land around me.

(And, I did grow up spending a LOT of time on the farm...changing irrigation pipes, feeding calves, watching out for the bull, bucking hay bales, feeding chickens, pigs, etc.)

TPBM knows how to rope.

TPBM prefers a Mac

Yes that counts! And I love Macs. But I am out of order so I won't add a line.

TPBM knows how to rope.

False - but I have tried. Proud gradulate of the University of Arizona College of Agriculture!

TPBM likes Gypsy Jazz music

[cyclinnewbie]

Maybe...not sure what gypsie jazz music is, but I'll try just about anything once!

TPBM is a tad sore from yesterday's ride(s). I spent more time in the saddle yesterday than i have since I was 10 years old (and that's not saying much since I'm such a newbie lol). But it was FUN!

[Crankin]

True, I am a bit sore, but it's from the incredible small amount of running I did on the treadmill yesterday, coupled with a sprint up the hill on my 30 lb. hybrid bike to avoid getting rained on.

TPBM is going to a Seder next weekend.

[shootingstar]

False. Instead I'll be attending a 50th surprise birthday party..
The next person below me will celebrate their birthday this month or next month.

[HoosierGiant]

The next person below me will celebrate their birthday this month or next month.

False -- and I don't celebrate it, regardless.

TPBM HATES to iron.

Iron? What's that?

TPBM needs to go into school and do her daybook for tomorrow.

[HoosierGiant]

TPBM needs to go into school and do her daybook for tomorrow.

Well, I don't need to go anywhere since school is here at home, but I do need to finish lesson plans and get some papers graded.

TPBM loves their cycling tan lines!

[salsabike]

True, although the first time I spotted the little round glove marks on the backs of my hands, I almost went to my doc--a cyclist--to ask what new skin disease I had that was giving me symmetrical dark spots. Jeez.

TPBM has a BIG life event coming up this year, like a remodel, return to school, marriage...
