Another Silly Questionaire

I wasn't going to do this one, but I kind of like the version Genna from Down Under sent to me. And there's a certain motivation when people you like but see or hear little of get in touch. I also have to note that it is interesting to look over the cc: list. My reaction ranges from who? to Ohmigod, she is in touch with him/her?

FAVOURITE MAGAZINE? ......Whatever is keeping me entertained while waiting to see the doctor
