| Bio: | 2008: Orange Paisley's Year of Hooping and Doctor Who It looks like this hooping thing that I took up for fun is something that I want to do full-time. There's just one problem: I currently live in a really hot climate with lots of airborne allergens. I've gotta move some place that has nice, cloudy skies and fewer cedar trees! So I'm making plans to move to the Pacific Northwest and I'm taking all my Doctor Who DVDs with me. W00t! 2007: Orange Paisley's Year of High Strategy I'm going to live after all! (For those keeping score at home, that's Orange Paisley: 3; Death: 1.) So I had best start preparing for a long life. That means paying off last year's medical bills, breaking the chains of credit card debt, improving my Go game, polishing up my Esperanto skills, perfecting my Argentine Tango, learning how to cook, and oh yes, making some romance. Provided that romance can fit into my schedule. Since Health Crisis 2001 and Health Crisis 2006, I'm all about being healthy. You should be, too. Clicky on the image below and join me in pledging to: * be physically active * learn cholesterol and blood pressure numbers * relax more * curb unhealthy behavior * eat smart  2006: Orange Paisley's Year of Dancing Dangerously When I stare into the Abyss, not only does the Abyss stare back, it smiles and blows me kisses. Life is short, folks. When I die, I don't want people at my gravesite to have nothing better to say than "She had very good organizational skills." I want them to say what they did at my godmother's funeral: "Wow, she could really dance!" So I am dedicating 2006 to learning how to ballroom dance. You're invited to watch, laugh, remark, sympathize, etc... ************************************************************************************* Blog entries from previous years are either friendslocked or private. I've had a couple of really bad years, so you are not missing anything. If you wish to add me to your friends list, please feel free to do. You don't need to ask me first. And if you wish to remove me from your friends list, go right ahead...it won't hurt my feelings. (I think of friends lists as a kind of subscription service. Would the New York Times be upset if I canceled my subscription? Nah.) ************************************************************************************* These are the states I have visited (or been forced to visit): create your own visited states map or check out these Google Hacks.
