Thank Delagar for getting a post today
The awesome Delagar tagged me. I’m meme’d! I usually suck at memes. Uh, I’m sure some of you have noticed since I’ve been tagged before and FAILED. I even start the damn things, and then wander off at some other shiny object. I’m sorry. I suck.
But I’m sick, and all I have to write about it is that I’m sick, my boyfriend is good and kind, and my children are sweet, and I’m sick.
Here: Meme, sort of complete!
1. Name something you have in common with all your siblings:
We laugh. Mightily and sometimes with a little urinary incontinence. When things are funny, they are FUNNY. The movie, Borat, nearly killed us all with that naked wrestling scene.
2. What is the greatest amount of physical pain you have ever endured?
Birthin’ babies. My god, is that necessary? And I had EPIDURALS.
3. What number of drinks constitutes your limit?
Three or Four. Or five. Maybe six. I am a really, really light drinker. Not because I have any issues with it, but because I can’t hold my alcohol well. There is dancing at three or four. Six equals crying.
4. Do you fold your underwear?
(stealing Delagar’s answer) Underwear folds?
I throw my underwear in a basket.
5. Have you fired a gun before?
No. Scary.
6. What was your favorite childhood toy?
Joey. Joey was a bean baggy stuffed panda bear. I thought he was a kangaroo joey, because of a book my mom was reading with me at the time, so I named him Joey. That and my Melissa doll. It was just a baby doll, I creatively named her Melissa.
7. Name a sound that disturbs you?
The sound of macaroni and cheese being stirred up is disgusting. Listen next time, it is.
8. Name something random that you would never do.
Random? I would never sky-dive? I don’t think. Hurtling to the ground seems bad. But then again, who knows. Never is a powerful word.
9. Name a person whose diary you would love to read.
My grandmother’s. That woman has stories in her, I just know it.
10. Have you ever had the same dream more than once?
Yes. And they’re all pretty lame and boring.
11. Name a song that makes you happy.
That great little number that goes, “you spin me right round baby, right round like a record baby…”
13. If you were in an emergency situation and you had to deliver a baby, could you do it?
Yes. Could I do it well? No idea.
14. What do you like about being in a committed relationship?
OMG, I’m in a committed relationship again! I think. Honey? We’re not good at these label things and figuring out what we’re doing. But, as it stands, I like being in (waves hands around) this because it’s nice to have someone to snuggle with when Jon Stewart is on.
15. What do you dislike about being in a committed relationship?
The process is hard, weird, and uncomfortable. You have to ask each other sometimes, what is this and what are we doing? Thankfully, I’m not rushing anything.
I’ve felt stifled in relationships, but I don’t think it was the committed part. It was personality clashings.
16. Name something you have to do tomorrow:
I’m going to a trivia night. ON DAYQUIL.
17. Name a movie you are looking forward to watching:
Lars and the Real Girl. I’m hoping to get some damn insights to Oskar Kokoschka and his crazy ass Alma Doll.
18. Name something you’ve heard about women that tends to be true:
This is a dumb question. Women tend to have vaginas, that’s what, and even then? Not all of them.
19. Do you own an iPod?
Nope. I used to. I got divorced.
21. Do any of your friends have children?
Many do. I’m 31. It happens.
22. What CD is currently in your CD player?
Dust?
23. Do you prefer regular or chocolate milk?
Am I five?
29. What movie do you know every line to?
The Princess Bride
.
30. Where was your last vacation?
Memphis, baby!
32. Are you currently wanting any piercings or tattoos?
No. I always fantasize about a tattoo, then can’t figure out what to get. I’m lame, I know.
35. When was the last time you slept on the floor?
When I moved back home to my mom’s, this time last year.
39. Do you watch the news?
No, I read Shakesville and watch the Daily Show.
40. Do you feel alone?
Sometimes, very. I used to love being alone. Since I’ve moved to my own place (omg, 11 months ago), I’ve had some very lonely nights and turns out, I do not handle it well. I’m learning learning learning…
What a fucking bummer to end this thing. I’m adding another question.
41. What is the last book you read?
The Six Wives of Henry VIII by Alison Weir. Before that, The Other Mother, Breaking the Tongue, Property Of, and Electric Michelangelo.

WTF is up with the spacing on this thing? ARRRRGGGh.
November 9th, 2007 at 5:29 pm
I dunno. Seems like you did a pretty good job of finishing this one. think i might just borrow it for tomorrow….
November 9th, 2007 at 5:35 pm
I like the idea of adding a question! You’re s’pose to tag 3 other people though!
November 9th, 2007 at 6:22 pm
Shit! I’ll have to get back to this part.
Not Faintedhearted, you’re tagged officially now!
November 9th, 2007 at 6:43 pm
LOL… Interesting stuff! I may have to check out the books you listed. My stack is getting low…

Just passing through by way of nablopomo. I like the Meme you have, so I’ll take it and do the same at my site. Get well soon!

I love your answer to the “something you’ve heard about women that tends to be true” question.
Also, thanks for ruining macaroni and cheese for me. Bitch.
November 10th, 2007 at 9:42 am
Jaelithe expressed my sentiments exactly. :)

I still EAT the mac and cheese, but cringe during the stirring! Slimy, shudder.
The trick is now to get your partners to make you the mac and cheese, bypassing the sound completely.

32. Are you currently wanting any piercings or tattoos?
For whatever reason, probably that nearly everyone under the age of 40 has at least one of each, I read this question as “are you currently wanting any more piercings or tattoos.
November 10th, 2007 at 4:49 pm
Kathy, you are probably quite right. But I am a giant nerd and have zero tattoos and only once-pierced ears that I rarely stick earrings in.

The solution to the mac and cheese issue is to put the Steve Earle up REALLY LOUD while you mix it. Obviously.
