It's Thursday, so here are some questions:

1) Do you dream, if so, do you have any recurring dreams? Any dreams that have come true or that were so real that you felt it happened?

2) Most of us have had pets, which one was the most unique? I know they are all special but is there one that was amazingly smart, funny or loyal in a different way to others? Favourite memory of them, a picture you can share?

3) Are you an early bird or a night owl? Have you always been that way?

4) If someone was visiting your area for a short time, what local attractions would you suggest?

5) What are your favourite comfort foods?

1) I dream constantly and have nightmare toilet dreams, awful how my brain finds different scenarios every time! I used to be able to lucid dream, which was fun, but not in years.

2) We had lots of Norwegian Elkhounds over the years, one that was especially sweet. He tried to be fierce but was all bluster.

3) Early bird, always have been since I was a child. It seems to run in the family.

4) We are a couple of hours from the Niagara area, always recommend Niagara-on-the-Lake and the White Water Walk in Niagara Falls.

5) Shepherd's Pie

1. Constantly.... don't remember most but sometimes wake up exhausted. Had one about Gerard Butler that was REALLY nice (nudge nudge say no more!!)

2. Mama Kira..older dog that I house sat with my early days in Michigan. She ate my breakfast oatmeal with me and I can still see her sweet face looking my way when I would come into the living room first thing in the morning. Sorry, have to go cry now...miss her much.

3. Night owl to this day... working 3rd shift was perfect for me. Rarely up before noon.

4. Mackinaw Bridge, upper Michigan, waterfalls

5. Chicken pot pie - the one at Lucky's at the Fallsview Casino is heaven.....or coffee ice cream or gelato.

1. Yes, I dream. I have a recurring dream about my Grandmother's house and while I am having it I know it is a dream.

2. My Maine Coon Frodo Baggins was a special cat. He had 7 toes on each front foot (most cats have 4). He wasn't afraid of anyone. Frodo had a big personality. This is him when he was a kitten ...notice the feet.. He had heart disease and died at 10. It killed me.

3. Early...always

4. The White Mountains, Boston...the beach.

5. Pasta

Giant flying Joro spider spotted in Massachusetts for the first time

This is totally awesome, right guys?
/s

I am terrified of spiders.

Yep. You do what's right, pay thousands of dollars for insurance over the years, clean driving record.... then some jerk hits you and because he didn't do what he's supposed to, you take the hit. Not right at all.

And no incentive for the jerk to change their behavior. "Oh we'll take your license." "Okay then I'll just drive without one."

There needs to be bigger consequences for this.

3. Early bird all the way
