I am both. I love the rain. I love the smell of it, and the sound it makes on roofs at night. I love the feeling of dancing in it, especially getting my hair wet. On the other hand, I love the warmth and power of the sun. I love the brightness of it shining through a window. Lovely.

As to the second question... I try to avoid exercise at all costs. Yes, I feel lazy and like a slob, but I'm comfortable with that. Better that than torturing my body with strenuous exercise! :)

Oh yeah, you know me Tim, I'm totally Mr. Fitness Freak... I mean I did a little lifting and little bending yesterday and now I'll spend the entire day in bed because my back is out. I'm going to be the next Mr. Universe you know... well, most likely the next Mr. Crippled Universe.

I like rain as long as I don't have to be out in it. And either way I prefer sun, so sun worshipper I guess.

And definitely couch potato. Otherwise I wouldn't be an internet freak, now would I?

As Shirley Manson, the lead singer of Garbage, sings: "I'm only happy when it rains." Have I mentioned I live right near the juncture of two rivers? I'm sure I have. The thunderstorms we get so rock my world. Plus, my fair skin sunburns easily.

Definitely couch potato. Whether it's TV or the Internet or even taking a nap, I'm always not moving, much less exercise. (Ha! I'm 5 foot 5, 190 pounds, but that has just as much to do with genetics as it does laziness. Short fat people are definitely the family standard.) I think that's all part of actively *not* being a sun worshipper, but anyway...
