Friday Five.

And now, the Friday Five.

These are hard, because I am not a risky person to start with.

1. What's the most daring thing you've ever done?

Skiing down the hardest slope at my regular skihill, white water rafting, or jumping into an ice-cold pool when the temp outside was -15C, after being in a sauna of +50C. Or kissing my last girlfriend for the first time. Depends on what you mean by daring, I guess.

2. What one thing would you like to try that your mother/friend/significant other would never approve of?

Hah, see, normally, I'm the "mother/friend/significant other" that would never approve of various things. Maybe go travelling on my own for a bit, which would panic my entire family. I've never really done that. This would, however, require a driver's license. And a car. Or an accomplice with those things. Hm. Oh, wait. And money. Okay, we'll put that plan on hold for a year or so.

3. On a scale of 1-10, what's your risk factor? (1=never take risks, 10=it's a lifestyle)

3. Maybe. If I'm feeling particularly good that day. But it used to be 1, so I'm getting there.

4. What's the best thing that's ever happened to you as a result of being bold/risky?

A few things: Got a girlfriend, got back in touch with a couple of friends, got kissed, had a great time... All sorts of good things, but the bad things tend to stand out more.

5. ... and what's the worst?

Broke my collarbone, got hit by a car (though one could argue I was being stupid, not risky), gotten my heart broken.

<yawn>

I do solemnly swear that one Wednesday or Friday morning this term, I will wake up for class all bright-eyed and bushy-tailed after having had nine hours of sleep.

Today is not that day.

Whee.

The cable guys are currently on the roof, giving me back my precious cable. Just in time for tomorrow's NHL All-Star Skills competition and Sunday afternoon's NHL All-Star Game. Ahh, José and Sheldon. :D I'm so happy, I'm not even grumpy that they woke me up. Mostly because it took a lot of bitching to get it reconnected today, so I'll just take it

Life is odd these days. I alternately feel like I have all the time in the universe and not half as much time as I need. My sleep schedule's all screwy, but it's not just that -- it's a lot of other stuff, too, I think. Not knowing what to do with myself though I do have readings for school to do, but those classes are days away, or having ten things to do at once and then getting a phone call which completely screws up my plans.

Cable is back, I'm on the phone, then I'm going to go nap again.

Such is life.
