Feb. 21st, 2003 11:38 am1. What is your most prized material possession?
I would say my computer. I would be lost without one. If you count animate objects, I'd say my cats.
2. What item, that you currently own, have you had the longest?
The oldest thing that I can think of I have is my dad's birth certificate (born in 1925, this may be the original copy). As far owned the longest, the first thing I can think of is a pair of shorts I wore in 8th grade (they don't fit). I used to have a charm on a necklace from third grade (replacing the orginal I got when I was born), but I lost it last year.
3. Are you a packrat?
Very much so. DH must less except for his work papers. Alan has a lot of stuff, because his mom loves to buy him clothes.
4. Do you prefer a spic-and-span clean house? Or is some clutter necessary to avoid the appearance of a museum?
I prefer to have the junk stuff in drawers and closet and not in piles, but that's a lost cause these days -- some the drawers don't close (that's life in a too small apartment).
5. Do the rooms in your house have a theme? Or is it a mixture of knick-knacks here and there?
Mixture of knicknacks. I have a few collections: some Star Trek books, soa shotglass collection, some ceramic animals. We have a white apartment with beige/gold in the flooring/carpet/tile/wallpapers (kind of 70's) - I've done some coordinating but its nothing fancy.
