What is one of your addictions? Submitted by Paperheart. Definitely lip balm. I cannot leave home without it. I don't think it's an addiction more than a necessity. Go figure. Could be worse.

What's the best present you gave this year? Probably the Nintendo Wii I gave my son. He was so not expecting it, though he was really wanting it. I pretended to not know a whole lot about it and that it was sold out everywhere so that he would...
