If you could either double your salary or keep your current pay rate at your dream job, which would you choose?
I like my current job well enough that if they doubled my salary, I'd be fine with it.

Describe your dream wedding:
The ceremony is performed by the C's, who have a great marriage. I'm wearing an adorable vintage hat, a simple off-white dress under a drop-dead embellished duster, and pretty shoes that don't hurt my feet. My groom is tall enough that I can rest my cheek on his shoulder without getting a crick in my neck when we slow-dance to Joe Satriani's "Always With Me, Always With You". There's a terrific buffet, an artistic, delicious cake, a great DJ, and all my nearest and dearest are there to wish us well---and they aren't fighting with each other. We're whisked away to our honeymoon in a vintage Cadillac limousine.

Read any good books lately?
Am in the middle of a western, "Gold in California", which I'm enjoying. Also "Naughty Neighbor", one of Janet Evanovich's romances.

Somebody needs to do a meme entirely about shoes because so many people on my friends' list have major shoe!love. (In the not kinky sense of the word. If any of them are kinky, I really do not want to know.)

That can be arranged....
