From the altfriday5:

1. How many places have you lived in your life?
Not that many, actually. Including college, five, not including the two months overseas.

2. What's the longest and shortest you've ever been in one place?
The longest was where I lived from the time I was ten until I was twenty eight, except for college in the middle. I suppose if you count Tuwani, I lived there for two months.

3. Which place did/do you like the most? The least?
I hated Wheaton. Odd that I lived there so long, but there were other reasons for it. I hated it, still do. I like where I live now the most.

4. How have you chosen the places you live?
Obviously, I didn't choose to live where I did with my family, growing up. I did choose to stay in my dad's house after my parents separated when I was 22, because it made sense for me at that time logistically, and because I didn't really know where I was going in life, yet. I chose to move into the community because I was intrigued by the concept, and together we chose to move into this house we're in now because it just ROCKS.

5. If you could live anywhere, where would it be, and why?
I have this castle-in-the-sky dream of moving back and living in the Old City of Jerusalem, and working there, either with a peace and justice organization, or perhaps eventually with the music school in East Jerusalem. I just love it there- I almost feel like a completely different person when I'm over there.

Moving back?

You and I definitely need to get together (after ya heal) to talk about our times over there. Perhaps over a nice cup of tea.

Sure, I'd be happy to :-)

When are you free?

[violachic.livejournal.com]

Maybe sometimes next weekend? I'm still getting over feeling crappy, and then my schedule's pretty full for a few days.

After friday sounds a good time. I know of quite a few good tea places throughout the city.

Excellent :-) Saturday afternoon is a good time for me.

Ack, I just remembered an outing I committed to for Saturday. How about Sunday evening?

Would sunday morning or afternoon be possible?

[violachic.livejournal.com]

Well, I do the church thing on Sunday mornings, and I like to attend the Arabic service, which meets at 1:30. I could be free by 3.

Sounds like a plan. What's your email addy? I mean this is getting a bit ridiculous.

Alternatively, my comprehensive contact info is here (http://violachic.livejournal.com/554586.html). My cell phone is a good way to get ahold of me. The home phone, not so much, as there are six people in the house, and really only one who regularly answers that line, since the rest of us have cell phones.
