but substance can wait

1. What's the oldest possession you own?

I have no earthly idea. I don't think I own any antiques. Oh, I have a few pieces of costume jewelry that belonged to my nana, I think.

2. What one possession have you owned the longest?

Eep, besides photos, possibly that jewelry of Nana's. I just don't know or care that much about my stuff. I'm starting to wonder if I am going to be able to answer any of these questions authoritatively.

3. What's the most expensive possession you own?

A few months ago, I would have said my car. Hmm. Now, it's probably the Kitchenaid mixer, especially if you include the new attachment. No, wait, it's the bed. How could I forget spending a thousand dollars on a piece of furniture? (I would say the computer, but mom got it used and cheap. If you count everything in my house, it's probably someotherguy's computer.)

4. What's the most precious (to you) possession you own?

I don't exactly do "precious" where stuff is concerned, but I would miss the stuff that's not replaceable: The four books in which my poetry has been published; the batch of alanbostick's sourdough starter; photos of my parents as children; stuff like that.

5. What's the rarest possession you own?

I suppose it would be art that my friends have made -- firecat's jewelry, for instance, or malte's drawing, or browngirl's magnet and card -- things like that.

6. What's the oddest, strangest, or silliest possession you own?
Heh. I own a lot of odd, strange and silly things

Several braids of other people's (strangers') hair
A collection of spheres
Most of the stuff in my superhero-themed bathroom -- Spiderman electric toothbrush, Hulk silly-soap dispenser, WonderWoman vitamin case, etc.

7. What's the newest possession you own (not food)?

The cookbook bayarts so generously sent in the mail or the CDs and DVD stonebender got me for our anniversary -- I can't remember which came first.

8. Which of your possessions most sums up your personality?

Wow. Tough one. I would like to solicit suggestions from people who know me and/or my stuff.

Does a Collection count as One Posession?
