I've removed most of my friendslist here because I'm just not keeping up. Most of you are using some other service, so I'll still see you over there. :)

I've been reading my Vox friends via RSS, so that means that I usually miss any friends-locked entries, which sucks. I've also not posted here since last NYE. And here it is... almost NYE again.

If you're looking to read me, you'll need to go to my blog or LJ. Hope to see you there!

How are you ringing in the New Year tonight?

Baking cookies. Getting some much needed alone time.

What is one of your addictions?
Submitted by Paperheart.

Blog reading. Including: LJ, Vox, and regular blogs via Bloglines. Damn interesting people! :D

What are the things in life that you're truly passionate about? 
Submitted by Jess.

People I'm involved with romantically, my friends, my chosen family and my family. I am very passionate about the people in my life.

I also tend to be passionate about my work, be it my day job or the consulting stuff I do.

I can be passionate about books, movies, music and food as well.

Huh. So now you can crosspost from Vox to LJ. You have to go into your Account and then Outside Services, but neat. I don't post over here very often, so don't expect to see a slew of posts showing up. It is kind of nice to have everything show up in one place though.

Also, they've release the Boston theme!

Windows, Mac, Linux - What's your preference and why?
Submitted by ramblingsbymark.

For development work, Linux. For desktop, Windows. Now, the explanation... I haven't used Linux as a desktop in a long time and when I had, it was not an easy, smooth operation. Instead, I use Windows. It has a ton of applications that I use that make life easier and that makes me happy. But for coding, please give me an account on a Unix server somewhere and let me go.

My roommate has a pretty, new Mac laptop. And it's neat, but gods is it frustrating sometimes! Her first choice of OS would be Linux, but she needed something with voice recognition software and can not cope with Windows, so now she has a Mac. It's good that it's hers though. ;)

If you could live anywhere in the world, where would you live?  Why? 
Submitted by abcdefg81.

I would live exactly where I am now (maybe a different apartment, but definitely I am staying Boston-local).

Why:
1) I live near my niece.
2) I live nearer to my family (in NJ).
3) I live with the best roommate evah.
4) I live near my sweetheart.

Everything I want and need is here.

How did you pick your Vox name? Does it mean something? 
Submitted by LeendaDLL.  

It's a name I've used online for a long time. I'm pretty attached to it.

Do you remember your first flight? Where did you go? Why?
Submitted by Laurel.

The first flight that I remember was a trip to Florida to visit my father's parents (I think I was probably younger than 6). I was excited and nervous, but apparently didn't act nervous. Until we got there and I threw up. Go me. ;) Once I got past that, I'm sure I had a good time.
