I don't know about you, but the A-Z challenge is challenging! I'm exhausted. So, an easy post. Remember, keep your answers short (five words or less each question).
1. Favorite character in a novel:
2. Decade you were born (i.e. in the roaring twenties):
3. Craziest thing you've done (i.e. bungee jumped, escaped prison):
3. Where you wish you could live (i.e in France, in a submarine):
4. Best excuse your significant other, friend or family has given for being late (because he was abducted by aliens):
5: Best line from a movie or book: (This does not have to be five words.)
