All About Meme

It's been a while since I did a meme, so here we go (thanks Suburbia and BS5!)
I'm not tagging; if you want to do it, please go right ahead.


What are your initials? WS

What is your favorite thing to wear? A smile

Last thing you ate? Lobster ravioli. mmmm...

Name one thing that scares you: Every single day that Bush is still in office.

I say Shotgun, you say: (wicked grin) Better put your seat belt on...

Who was the last person in your bed? Me

What were you doing at 7:00am? Standing in a hot shower with my eyes still closed.

Last person you hugged? A dear friend who dropped by my office on his lunch, just to say hello. Hello JR! And God bless him, he actually reads my blog!

Do you like your name? I like all of them.

What time of the day is it? Thismuch closer to closing the office.

Who/What made you angry today? I've not been angry today.

Do you want anyone? Of course! Who wouldn't? I want my family, I want my friends, I want a good president this time, I want a masseur for an hour, this list could get long.

Do you like birds? Some of them.

Favorite holiday? Okay... my UK buddies have written their favorite vacations in here, but in America this has a different connotation: My birthday and Christmas are right up at the top. Yes, my birthday is a holiday to me.

Do you download music? No

Do you care if your socks are dirty? Absolutely! Yuck! I usually wear exotic sandals so I don't have to worry about this.

Opinion of Chinese symbol tattoos? It's your body.

What are you doing tonight? An art walk with some friends. Several galleries, one street, probably a glass of wine in there somewhere and a Denver sunset on the Rocky Mountains.

Do you like to cuddle? Very much.

Do you love anyone? Of course! Who came up with this question? Can you imagine not loving one single person?

Whose bed did you sleep in last night? Mine

Have you ever bungee jumped? No way! I like living on the edge, but not when I'm tied to it.

Have you ever gone whitewater rafting? Yes! Did some of my best praying then!

Has anyone ten years older than you ever hit on you? Yes. I am plagued with what I have termed 'the dirty old man syndrome'... The oldest was in his 80's. Now, really... what's the point?

How many pets do you have? Just Viaggiatore; he travels well, and he's a fantastic muse, so it's perfect.

Have you met a real redneck? *wicked giggle* - OK, my darling sister, if you are reading this, skip to the next question.
Yes, my brother-in-law.

Dark eye liner and mascara. An ankle bracelet from Africa. Exotic suede sandals with gold fabric, gold beads and sparkly clear stones.

What's one thing you've learned this year? Patience... lots of it.

What do you usually order from Starbucks? I don't go often, I like small single owner shops, but if I find myself at a Starbucks then I usually like a Caramel Macchiato... with tons of caramel... really, it winds up being a dessert.

Ever had someone sing to you? Yes! It makes me blush and swoon with a big grin.

Have you ever fired a gun: Yes. As it turns out, it's not something I am good at.

Who would you like to see right now? The list is far too long to put here.

Are you afraid of falling in love? As long as it's true love, no.

Have you ever been caught doing something you weren't supposed to? Oh Absolutely! I joined that team when I was a teenager and have even been the captain a few times! Following the rules for your whole life is a blatant waste of good opportunity.

Who did you last speak with on the phone? A Jaded girl I know.

What does your last received text message say? "In 2009 the US government will start shipping retards away. I started to cry when I thought of you. Be strong, wear your helmet and run fast lil buddy!" My friends thrive on twisted humor.

With you on the rings 'n' things. A non-angry day, yay!

Unknown said...

Oh fun - I love your replies! :-)

Clowncar said...

Nice.

I dig your obsession with "just about everything." Anyone with less than 3 obsessions just isn't trying hard enough.

Good to get to know you that much more.

heartinsanfrancisco said...

I got the same message about shipping retards from my 86-year old auntie.

!!!!!

Nipple rings make me wonder.

Anonymous said...

That was a crazy long meme! Who write's those things? Great answers though.

Brett said...

I tried the orange question in my head, it is so random, mines a service manual for a VW beetle.

Suburbia said...

A great read! So glad you did it. I like your style :)

exskindiver said...

very interesting nuggets about you dear.

BS5 Blogger said...

Hello there, BS5 here! Great answers; they were sassy, alive, fresh and witty. Cool answer on 'do you love someone?', as you say, like there isn't anyone who doesn't love someone! Cool take on US President too!

Take care.

You're that young. Pictured you in your 40s.


>Have you ever fired a gun: Yes. As it turns out, it's not something I am good at.
A story there?

Hey Jon!

Non-angry days are in abundance for me! Woo hoo! Hope they are for you too.
;o)


Hello Vanilla!

It was fun, kind of silly...
Are you going to do it?


Clowncar,

Laughed *SO* much... yes, anyone with less than 3 is just not giving it their best. That's so funny! And true!


Dear Hearts,

She's 86 and she texted that to you?
...this does not bode well for you. But it's very funny! If she's texting at 86, then she must be quite a character!


Kat,

I know! Isn't it insanely long? Sheesh! But fun to do.


Hi Brett,

Welcome! Service manual for a VW? Those come in orange? That's so cool!


Suburbia,

Lady, you were my inspiration. It's all thanks to you, I loved yours!


Chesca!

YAY! Glad to see you.
Interesting is good. Thanks!


Hey BS5,

Thank you! It was fun to do.
I would like to take on the US President, but it's not likely to happen. Wonder how he'd like a piece of my mind.


Hello Pearl!

I have an old soul. This is my second turn through college, not that it makes midterms any easier, but school is not indicative of my age. I am younger than you thought, but I take it as a huge compliment from you that you thought I was older.

There is a short story with the gun, but it's not an interesting one. I didn't shoot myself in the foot, though, so that was good.
;o)
