1. How many of Fifi’s rocks do you think I’ve found so far?
15?
2. Why do you think that she keeps eating rocks?
Her stomach itches? Or she thinks she’s related to a chicken, and needs them to digest?
3.Your cat runs away from home and is found injured in a ditch by people who pay $500 for vet care and decide to adopt it. You discover this a month later. Would you try to get your cat back?
Depends on the situation. How long did I have the cat? How close was I to the cat? Do I have kids? Do they have kids? Can I afford to repay them for the $500 (plus reward)? (Honestly, I’m used to NYC prices. :p $500 is a single blood test for kitty. Or a cast on a broken paw.) Do they seem to be caring well for the cat?
4. Have you ever broken a bone?
Collarbone when I was a wee-kid.
5. Name your favorite summer time drinks.
Sangria. But now that I can’t have it, I like fruit cut up into fizzy-water. Basically fruit salad, fruit juice, and seltzer.
6. Would you rather have a sauna or hot tub?
Hot tub. But I don’t really like warm water (it makes me dizzy) so I’d prefer something more in the lines of a heated pool or something.
7. What’s one reason that Devon should let me get a puppy?
I… wouldn’t think he’d object.
But you’d care for it, feed it, love it, and bake it cherry tarts. What more could a doggie wish for?
8. What’s one reason that he shouldn’t?
I can think of plenty of reasons why you wouldn’t want him to. :p Picking up after the poop, for example. Just wait until the puppy swallows your wedding ring.
9. Do you use a cell phone or home phone?
Cell. Home phones can’t be used to text message.
10. First thing that you think of when you hear:
* A. Lemur
Emma-lovin’
* B. Binge
Cheesecake.
* C. Avoid
Work.

1. How many of Fifi’s rocks do you think I’ve found so far?
Umm…8 and the random penny.
2. Why do you think that she keeps eating rocks?
She is a devout member of Opus Dei and is cleansing herself of her sins by inflicting pain on herself – I guess she couldn’t find a silice. (Only amusing if you have read and/or seen the DaVinci Code).
3.Your cat runs away from home and is found injured in a ditch by people who pay $500 for vet care and decide to adopt it. You discover this a month later. Would you try to get your cat back?
I would certainly try.
4. Have you ever broken a bone?
Nope. *knock on wood*
5. Name your favorite summer time drinks.
Ummm?? Lemonade?
6. Would you rather have a sauna or hot tub?
Hot tub. I fear that the sauna would attract old, naked men from all over the neighborhood.
7. What’s one reason that Devon should let me get a puppy?
Because you are his wife and he is allowed to buy as many accessories at the Apple store as he wants. Also, Fifi needs a sparring partner.
8. What’s one reason that he shouldn’t?
If it would make you happy, I can see no good reason not to.
You have proven your pet care abilities – if you can wipe Fifi’s bum with toilet paper twice a day (as well as dig rocks out of her excrement) , I don’t think you will shy away from picking up doggie doo a few times a day.
9. Do you use a cell phone or home phone?
Cell.
10. First thing that you think of when you hear:
A. Lemur
Emma and Devon are strange.
B. Binge
Purge.
C. Avoid
Bees.
D. Groove
Stella – honestly did not look at MB’s answers before this came to mind!
June 5th, 2006 at 1:04 pm
MB – chickens need rocks to digest?!?
Kristin – Fifi never ate the penny, it was just there to show the size of the rocks. silly.

June 5th, 2006 at 7:37 pm
1. How many of Fifi’s rocks do you think I’ve found so far?
A. 42? Is there a prize for “closest guess”?
2. Why do you think that she keeps eating rocks?
A. I think it’s a mineral deficiency thing…sort of like kids eating plaster or dirt?….
3.Your cat runs away from home and is found injured in a ditch by people who pay $500 for vet care and decide to adopt it. You discover this a month later. Would you try to get your cat back?
A. Depends….is my cat D’opie? Or Tex? Answer is probably not…come to think of it, Cinnamon is probably the only one I’d think twice about, and I probably wouldn’t pay $500 for her.
4. Have you ever broken a bone?
A. Right pinky, 3 ribs…all hurt.
5. Name your favorite summer time drinks.
A. If I’m making them….margarita and Pimm’s Cup. If someone else is making them…..caipirinhas

A. Hot tub.

A. Marginally cheaper than a 3 legged rescue lizard?
8. What’s one reason that he shouldn’t?
A. Maybe you guys would spoil it so bad that my previous answer would NOT be true…..No, the main reason is that they are very much more dependent on you than even Fifi….

A. Both.

I think it would have been cooler if Fifi ate the penny too.
June 6th, 2006 at 10:18 am
Emma- Yep. Birds tend to swallow rocks and grit, which then stays in their gizzard (strong muscle) which helps them to grind up foods like grains and cracked corn.
June 6th, 2006 at 11:09 am
1. How many of Fifi’s rocks do you think I’ve found so far?
15 maybe? Enough as far as I’m concerned.
2. Why do you think that she keeps eating rocks?
I thought it would be a mineral thing, but her blood work always comes back without any deficiencies, so I dunno…
3.Your cat runs away from home and is found injured in a ditch by people who pay $500 for vet care and decide to adopt it. You discover this a month later. Would you try to get your cat back?
That’s really tough. I tend to be very attached to my pets, but it would appear they are too. If anyone took Fifi, I’d get her back no matter what.
4. Have you ever broken a bone?
Many of them. Kneecap, both arm bones, thumb, head, nose, etc…
5. Name your favorite summer time drinks.
Root beer, Voss, cool tea.
6. Would you rather have a sauna or hot tub?
Hot tub, although I like both. Soaking just feels so good.
7. What’s one reason that Devon should let me get a puppy?
It might make you happy for a day or two;)
8. What’s one reason that he shouldn’t?
The last puppy we had in our care.
9. Do you use a cell phone or home phone?
Cell only.
10. First thing that you think of when you hear:
A. Lemur
SPOOOON!
B. Binge
Buying Spree! Apple store, here I come!
C. Avoid
Swerve.
D. Groove
Good movie!
June 6th, 2006 at 12:46 pm
Aha! I submit Devon’s response #10B as evidence in my case stated in my answer #7 as to why Emma should get a puppy!!!
June 6th, 2006 at 3:28 pm
*highfives Kristin*
hehe.
June 7th, 2006 at 1:40 pm
1. How many of Fifi’s rocks do you think I’ve found so far?
The official count is 14.
2. Why do you think that she keeps eating rocks?
I think she doesn’t actually eat any. The rocks that come out are probably just whats left over from making her smart bombs.
3. Your cat runs away from home and is found injured in a ditch by people who pay $500 for vet care and decide to adopt it. You discover this a month later. Would you try to get your cat back?
It depends on if the cat was a pain in the ass or not. Like if it had never really been house broken and would hiss if you tried to pet it, I probably wouldnt make that much of an effort to get it back.. if at all… Now on the other hand, if it was a good cat, I’d do everything that I could to repay the other family and get my cat back.. If it was Fifi, I’d get her back by any means necessary.
4. Have you ever broken a bone?
I think I’ve broken my baby toe before.
5. Name your favorite summer time drinks.
Margheritas, mojitos, unsweetened iced tea, lemonade.
6. Would you rather have a sauna or hot tub?
Unless its so cold out that my wet hair is freezing in the sub-zero air, I always boil in hot tubs. I think I prefer saunas because its more of a dry heat.
7. What’s one reason that Devon should let me get a puppy?
Because it could bring us breakfast in bed, it would motivate us to exercize, and they give lots of snuggley wet kisses.
8. What’s one reason that he shouldn’t?
There would be a big mess to clean up if we wanted to sleep in until 2pm on saturdays.
9. Do you use a cell phone or home phone?
Cell phone.
10. First thing that you think of when you hear:
A. Lemur
anti-bathing
B. Binge
Potato chips
C. Avoid
plague
D. Groove
something that I have a hard time imagining Devon ever doing.
June 7th, 2006 at 1:42 pm
I think MB, mum and Devon tied for the first place prize in the question regarding Fifi’s rocks. Congrats!
