Friday Five

1. Would you say that you're good at keeping in touch with people?
I'm about average... it all depends on how busy I am and if I am needing alone time or not.

2. Which communication method do you usually prefer/use: e-mail, telephone, snail mail, blog comments, or meeting in person? Why?
Instant Messaging and in person... IM'ing because you don't have to wait as long as you would for email or snail mail... and some thoughts are just easier to get across by typing. Meeting in person because... well... being social is human, and I enjoy being able to interact with people without a bunch of cyberspace in between...

3. Do you have an instant messenger program? How many? Why/why not? How often do you use it?
Yes I do... MSN/Yahoo/AIM/ICQ - I use it because it's easier to keep in contact with some of my friends and coworkers. I use it everyday at work, and rarely from home.

4. Do most of your close friends live nearby or far away?
Depends on what you consider nearby... but most of my friends in general live in the same metroplex or the same state. :)

5. Are you an "out of sight, out of mind" person, or do you believe that "distance makes the heart grow fonder"?
I believe distance does make the heart grow fonder... but that's not always a good thing -- there's only so much I can stand of not being with my friends or loved ones in person... that's why I am also an out of sight, out of mind person.
