1. Would you say that you’re good at keeping in touch with people?
Actually I am horrible at keeping in touch with most people. My problem is that I am far too easily distracted. Into the mind of SMooSH….“Hey, I should call/email that person! But wait, that little thing is flashing, cool! What was I just going to do?…mmmm…flashing lights…”

2. Which communication method do you usually prefer/use: e-mail, telephone, snail mail, blog comments, or meeting in person? Why?
I usually like email…I prefer typing to talking much of the time…it gives me time to think about what I have to say. Something that many of us humans need to do more often…

3. Do you have an instant messenger program? How many? Why/why not? How often do you use it?
I use MS messenger most of the time, just because it is always loaded and running. And it never gets in the way of my other programs. I sometimes use ICQ, but too often when I am doing something like playing a game, it drops me to the desktop.

4. Do most of your close friends live nearby or far away?
Kind of a mix. 50/50.

5. Are you an “out of sight, out of mind” person, or do you believe that “distance makes the heart grow fonder”?
Depends on the person involved. 8^)
