castironDecember 17. Which parent was more strict when you were growing up? They were equally strict.
18. Do you ever get gut-feelings about things? Do you follow them? Yes, and often.
19. There’s an app for everything. What apps consume the most of your time? My ebook reader and my music app.
20. Have you ever had a bedroom with a specific theme? No.
21. Do you have memories from preschool? Parading with a giant toy dog on my head; wetting myself and having to take off my tights and underwear because there wasn't a spare pair; the day a fire truck visited, and the fireman ran a hose and made rainbows in the water, and I could never manage to shout "rainbow!" at the same time as the other kids, I always had a couple seconds' delay.
22. Is there anything about technology that scares you? The people who create it, their assumption that everyone who'll be affected by the tech is Just Like Them, and their inability or lack of concern to think through possible consequences.
23. What’s a word/phrase that’s commonly heard in your region, but not anywhere else? "Fixing to".

I remember being worried about not speaking English well enough, because we spoke Spanish at home and my parents had me that isolated. Also really liking standing in the shelter of the weeping willow tree on the way there.
