I log my eats in sparkpeople.com every single day just because I do exactly like this and end up either over or under eating all the time otherwise. I often do forget to eat and sleep, usually when I am in the middle of a big project. Kfisherx's advice has worked well for me. If I do not keep a mea... |

I was also a blue baby. I was born with my umbilical cord wrapped around my neck. |

24. Play your favorite song at least four times a day for a whole year.
25. Use official language to answer any simple query submitted for your cogitation. |

Absolutely! I'm a creature of habit and hate it when stuff disrupts it, but at the same time I long to do things that expose me to new things. I find it very confusing to have totally opposing feelings at the same time. Same here; I love my daily routine, and can get quite upset when it is disrupte... |

It's called Syndrome de Raynaud in French, so I guess it must me Raynaud Syndrom in English. I have cold hands most of the year, mot only in winter. Same here; my hands and feet go numb in cool weather very quickly. I have to keep this in mind when I am outside and the temperature is under 60 degre... |

I find it a mildly anoying question to be asked. I normally just say "I'm fine", in most cases I know they really don't care, its just something polite they were taught to say. Now if its a family member asking, I'll answer truthfully because I know they really do care. |

I get asked for my I.D. all the time! In manner I am a bit akward, my voice is high pitched, and my step has a bounce to it. This leads most people to think I am around 18 - 22 years old. That is almost a decade younger than my real age. I figure that it will be an asset latter on in life.  |

Thanks; that is helpful ;) I also found a few videos on youTube, but nothing really amazing. I'm more interested in the creation of the puppets themselves over performance with them (though that is interesting to me too); I would love to build something as complex as the ones in Labyrinth some day,... |

I actually haven't done any form of puppetry before, but I am developing an interest in it currently. I've done other kinds of performing: acting, music etc. Most of my training in puppetry was either self taught (trial and error) or gained through attending classes at a local puppet fest. I used t... |

I have helped make a few of my troupes Rod Arm and Human Hand puppets. It is both a time consuming and labor intensive process to take a puppet from the drawing board to the finished product. The gluing and the dying of the fleece I don't enjoy; but the hand stitching, costuming, and wig constructio... |

I am a puppeteer; have been practicing this art form since I was 16, and was just wondering if anyone else had "puppet fever".  |

Growing up I spent most of my time in loose t-shirts, sneakers, and blue jeans, mostly hand me downs from my big sister. Shopping has always been a mind-numbing and confusing venture, so I avoid it when possible. I also do not enjoy the process of putting on or for that matter wearing makeup; I only... |
