I could have sworn I started this once upon a time, back in the day. But since I'm shit at tagging my stuff properly for future!me, I guess we'll never know. Might as well give it a go and see how far I make it before I give up. I'm pretty sure I might've finished one of these however many days kind of things over the course of, y'know, a billion years. Oops.

1.) Favorite sitter
Dawn. I could pretend otherwise, and there are certainly close runners up, but it's pretty much always been and always going to be Dawn. The very first BSC book I bought and read was Little Miss Stoneybrook... and Dawn and I was hooked right from the start. Long hair (younger!me was forever getting haircuts that were entirely too short, either through my own fault or someone trying to "even things out" or gum would get stuck in my hair), ghost loving, marches to the beat of her own drummer but still worries about how that's percieved by other people? SOLD.

Over the years for various things I've defended Dawn and should the need arise again, I shall continue to do so. Her ghostie years are a crime against humanity that adults should be able to work around since it's not like most of the characters fared too well but I guess part of growing up is realizing that the stuff you loved as a kid had faults and then you overcompensate. Or something like that.

Anyway, early Dawn is the best Dawn. She managed to be granola crunchy but understood that not everyone was going to feel the same way and let them live. She had certain non-negotiables (toy guns) but found ways to get her point across calmly and without much fuss. While she might not have been the ultimate Individual the others always said she was, I think I always understood that to be kind of the point. Dawn's friends saw her one way and then Dawn's books and little interludes in the other books showed what was going on behind the curtain. The girl is thirteen, she doesn't have it all figured out even if she'd like to think she does sometimes.

Never did understand the Laura Ashley thing though.
