Brought to you by the Letter "R"

I hope to post something from the heart again in a day or two, but until then I’ve been meaning to play the Letter Game, passed on to me by the lovely Chesneygirl. Here's how it works: You take your assigned letter and then write 10 words that start with that letter and explain why they are important to you and how they relate to you. Normally I should say here that if you want to play, let me know and I’ll assign you a letter. But frankly I can’t handle that type of pressure. So if you want to play, go ask Chesney or Naïve for a letter, or assign yourself one ;). Sheesh, such a buck-passer, I know.

This was a bit more challenging than I expected, but it was pretty fun, too. Hope you enjoy learning yet more useless information about me!

Rabbits. Everybody knows that I love bunny rabbits. They’ve always been my favorite animal. I even still have my bunny from when I was a little girl – he’s one of my prized possessions. Speaking of rabbits, there’s a family of bunnies in the bushes out front of my house. The babies are so cute you’d just die. (Quiet, BigWhiteHat - Bunnies aren't for eating in my house. ;D)

Rock and Roll. I’m a music girl, especially rock and roll. I’ve gotten busy with other things as I’ve gotten older, but rock and roll used to be “my life”. I don’t mean I was a groupie. I mean I was a FAN, and a huge bank of rock knowledge and trivia. Rock and roll is a huge part of me even now.

Rinker. The make of our beloved family boat. I have always been drawn to water and was lucky enough to marry a fellow water nut. Our boat’s our second home and it’s hard for me to imagine life without it.

Rae. Naïve’s middle name. She’s my soul sister and best friend. Outside of God and family, the most important person in my life.

Records. I’m the family historian in my world. I research the genealogy and capture the events of our lives in my scrapbooks and journals. I love doing this. Memories alone fade so quickly.

Reality shows. Yes, I enjoy the guilty pleasures of Survivor, American Idol, and a few select others. And I also love the slice-of-life reality shows, like American Chopper, Miami Ink, and especially Deadliest Catch. I LOVE Deadliest Catch! (And here’s a bonus related R word for you here: The greatest Survivor of all time: RUPERT! Hee hee!)

Right. This is a twofer. My politics are right oriented – that’s a biggie. But I’m also … um … guilty of not apologizing very easily, or admitting that I am wrong. I’m stubborn that way (blush). I love to be right and hate to admit when I’m not so right. Pride is a big thing I struggle with …

Restless. If I’m not busy doing something, you can bet a dollar that at the very least, my mind is grinding away at a million miles an hour. I’m always thinking, writing, designing, composing, sorting - my brain is very restless. To the point of having a disorder, I sometimes think.

Rocky Mountains. Despite the fact that I’m a summer girl and should be living in the tropics somewhere – if I could move anywhere I think I’d choose the Rocky Mountains. Words cannot describe how they change you, just being there. God’s country. Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful.

Randall. The bad guy in “Monsters, Inc.”. The movie presently the favorite in my house. That I get to watch and/or hear… Every. Single. Day. You know me – I love Incrediboy, and the laughter he emanates while watching is worth the madness of the water torture repetition. But let’s just say I hope the rain leaves SOON so we can go outside. AWAY from the DVD player.
