Hey, Cindy posted a survey thingy in her diary today. I�ve filled a few of these out and sent them around, and she�s right�it�s fun to see what people fill in as answers. Thought I�d share mine with you, Diaryland. I deleted the last couple questions because they were about forwarding the questionnaire on to other people, and I'm not doing that, although I'd love to read the rest of Diaryland's responses...
