I can’t even remember where I first saw the link for this meme, but I haven’t done one in awhile and so I thought, oh why the heck not. So I grabbed it from SillyDreamer over here. Enjoy. And if you could send me some Stay awake!vibes, I’d appreciate it. Because duuuuuude, I’m dying over here.
1. My uncle once: twirled me round and round at his brother’s wedding when I was little and made me bump into and kick lots of guests, who were then very cross.
2. Never in my life: have I tried an illegal substance.
3.When I was five: I knew all of the teachers and most of the kids at school and was Quite Popular.
4.High School was: the best of times, it was the worst of times.
5.I will never forget: all of my sibs surprising me by showing up on my doorstep for my 30th bday!
6.I once met: a boy who taught me it was okay to be smart and like to read…and still be wickedly handsome and popular.
7. There’s this girl I know who: has never told a man she loves him – and I think that’s rather liberating. And also a little wasteful.
8. Once, at a bar: I got so drunk my boyfriend had to carry me to the car because I couldn’t walk.
9. By noon, I’m usually: hitting my stride.
10. Last night: I baked four dozen cookies as therapy, which didn’t work, and talked to my Insignificant Other for four hours, which did.
11. If only I had: enough money to not stress about things.
12. Next time I go to church: I will marvel at the beauty in the architecture and wonder why I don’t go more often.
13. Terry Schiavo: is someone I’m sure I should know…
14. What worries me most: is that I will be unhappy and unable to fix it.
15. When I turn my head left, I see: pictures of my beautiful girls!.
16. When I turn my head right, I see: a phone with more buttons than should be allowed, Germ-X, two English bobbies and two magnets that read, “Smart is the new Skinny,” and “If beauty is a state of mind, then I’m a freakin’ genius.”
17. You know I’m lying when: I start laughing and ‘fess up.
18. What I miss most about the eighties: is the gobs of free time I had as a kid.
19. If I was a character in Shakespeare, I’d be: deliriously happy.
20. By this time next year:I will be prepping for a week at the Weirs with the fam!
21. A better name for me would be: _Goddess_ (fill in the blank, but be nice.)
22. I have a hard time understanding: people who can’t be sympathetic or tolerant of any sort of difference.
23. If I ever go back to school, I’ll: probably get a degree in Psychology. Or my teaching certificate. Or American Studies, focusing on small town New England history.
24. You know I like you if: I take the time to tease you.
25. If I ever won an award, the first person I’d thank would be: my mom.
26. Darwin, Mozart, Slim Pickens & Geraldine Ferraro: Oh my god, do you know how tired I am and how fuzzy my brain? I barely drove here in one piece!
27. Take my advice, never: marry young.
28. My ideal breakfast is: coffee, bacon and french toast loaded with butter and hot maple syrup.
29. A song I love, but do not own is: Michelle by the Beatles.
30. If you visit my hometown, I suggest: taking me with you.
31. Tulips, character flaws, microchips, & track stars: meh, necessary, tiny, run fast.
32. Why won’t people: just do what I say?
33.If you spend the night at my house: I’ll make you killer coffee in the morning.
34. I’d stop my wedding for: can’t tell you this one. But there is one thing.
35. The world could do without: hate and intolerance.
36. I’d rather lick the belly of a cockroach than:watch my girlies be hurt.
37. My favorite blonde is: my sister. Because even though state authorities might say she has light brown hair, THEY’RE LYING.
38: Paper clips are more useful than: ignorami who insist on giving you ill-advice even though they have no idea about your situation.
39. If I do anything well, it’s: listening.
40. And by the way: commit an act of random kindness: karma will love ya for it.
