For now, this or that, though:
1. Packrat or minimalist?
Packrat still.
2. Computer: desktop or laptop?
Both.
3. Seashore or mountains?
Both. I live in Norway, you know…
4. Carpeting or bare floors?
Bare floors. I hate carpets. Rugs are fine, for softness and warmth, but carpets are horrid.
5. Drinking water: bottled or tap?
Whatever’s most practical. At home I drink tap water, if I’m out and about I buy bottled, but refill it from the tap if I have the chance.
6. Shopping websites: eBay or Amazon?
Amazon. I have yet to buy anything at eBay. I don’t buy used items at Amazon either, though, for used books I go to ABE.
7. Cute little kitties or big scary tigers?
Both, but the tigers, definitely.
8. Front door or back door?
I don’t have a back door. If I did, it would be pretty useless, as it would have to sit in the wall on the fourth floor.
9. Lots of jewelry, or little/none?
None, a little (one necklace or bracelet) very occasionally.
10. Thought-provoking question of the week: At the last minute, you obtain tickets to an event you’re dying to attend. However, you have to work that day! Do you ask the boss for the time off, or just call in sick?
I ask for time off, or, rather, inform them I’m taking time off. If there’s a reason why that would be a problem (important meeting, for example) I would probably not go anyway, because I’d be too concerned about the meeting myself.
