Today's Sunday Stealing was ripped off a blogger named Leo from the blog Leonine's Journal. He was tackling a meme that his blogging site, Live Journal, hosts. It has 5,000 questions.
I went back through the Sunday Stealing archives and found part one through four and added that to today's part five. (yes, this is going to be long!). If you decide to join, leave a comment and link up to Sunday Stealing!
