3. Do you have a favorite color? Octarine. No, not really. I'm not terribly fond of stong primary colors or pink or purple.
4. favorite authors/ type of book? Like a LOAD of others, I like science fiction and fantasy. I love Terry Pratchett, I love Charles DeLint and his 'urban mythology', but I probably have most of their books. Books from your part of the world might be nice, but books weigh a lot
5. what books have you really been wanting? See above
6. what type of music do you like? Traditional acapella (like the Watersons), sea shanties, work songs, singer/songwriters who write singable songs (Lightfoot, Bogle, Keelaghan), indiginous music, fusion music, and plenty of other stuff I can't think of now. NOTE: the examples are just examples.
7. what cds have you really been wanting? Really good ones I don't know about.
8. What movies have you been wanting? I don't buy movies
9. what is your t-shirt size? Large or humongous. I like them really baggy.
10. do you collect anything? if so, what? Musical instruments. Right now my collection lacks a button accordion, a Larrivee guitar and a 5-string fiddle. I also like old music books.
11. what are some of your other hobbies? I bead: stick 'em on string or wire and wear 'em.
12. do you prefer gold-tone or silver-tone jewelry? I usually prefer gold, but I like silver as well. I'm allergic to anything else except surgical steel, but that's only a problem with earrings.
13. please include anything else you feel is important that would help your secret santa know what you would like The most fun thing about this 'Secret Santa' stuff is the element of surprise.
