A Bit Of Wednesday Silliness

I found this list on our Valerie's blog...not having anything redeeming to write about today, I decided to do another list. I know you are shocked. Truly.

Would this make a good tattoo? Just asking. A survey being conducted purely for intellectual, sociological reasons.

1. Elaborate on your avatar.

She has blondish brown hair, glasses, wears a quizzical look on her face and carries a camera. She is much thinner than the real Susie and is dressed all in black, set against a black and white checkerboard background! I wish I could download her to upload her here. Sounds painful doesn't it? *grin*

2.What's your current relationship status? Very married, almost 29 years, to a messy, cute, goofy, retired but still working guy.

3. Ever have a near-death experience? No I haven't. I have, however, had a near life experience. It scared me.

4. What is the name of the song that's stuck in your head right now? The I Dream Of Jeannie theme song. Grace got up humming it and so, there it is. Stuck in my head. A jackhammer could not loosen it!

5. Name a celebrity you would marry?

Um...I think his name is Brian something or other. I kinda like him.

6. Who will cut and paste this meme first? I do not know...maybe...no one? Most bloggers are terribly sane people who do not get a thrill from posting a list on their blog every single day of their lives....except for me that is. I am decidedly nutty and LOVE lists. Grocery lists, laundry lists, honey do lists...

7. Has anyone ever said you look like a celebrity?

When I was a teenager, several people told me I looked a little like Cybil Shepherd...it was the decidedly pug nose that did it. I still have the nose but the rest of me has gone to seed.

More recently someone said I looked like Kathy Bates. Okay, the figure I get. I wish I could act like that lady...wow.

8. Do you wear a watch? What kind? I sure do. I tried to tell time by carrying around a sundial but that got so darned heavy. I have a lot of watches....I actually love my Lion King watch. I also have an Albert Einstein one, a Mickey Mouse one, a Van Gogh Sunflowers one. Those and about 20 others.

9. Do you have anything pierced?

Two holes in each ear. They match the 2 holes in my head.

10. Do you have any tattoos? I am such a coward...really. Besides, how could I choose something that I would still love when I am 93? Bill would be miffed if I got BD's face tattooed somewhere on my ample body. But then again...

11. Do you like pain?

What kind of question is that??? Are you serious? Uh, no...NO! What? Sheesh....does this have anything to do with that tattoo question? Argh...no way am I getting a tattoo. Ouch.

12. Do you like to shop? I do. I admit it. But I love shopping for things like groceries and in hardware stores. I LOVE antique shopping, flea market shopping. And Target...oh boy. Target.

13. The last thing you paid for with cash?

The popcorn I got to eat in the movie I had just paid cash to see.

14. The last thing you paid for with credit card? I ordered a DVD and a book from Amazon. I get something there every month. It is like a little joy I reserve for myself! A treat! Better than that tattoo!

15. Who was the last person you spoke to on the phone?

Bill. He called from work this morning. Then again just a few minutes ago. I like that he does that...he always has. He is kind of cute huh? No tattoos though.

16. What is on your desktop background? A photo I took of Bill, Dan and Grace. It was a picture of Mr. D. He will probably make a reappearance eventually. In some form.

17. What was the last movie you watched?

Waitress in the theater, For Your Consideration at home.

18. What was the last book you read? The Wiggles: A Day At The Zoo. Hey, I read it to my nephew okay? (Not that I didn't enjoy it because I really do love The Wiggles) Oh. You were looking for something a bit more grown up? Oh. Okay then.... A Year in the World: Journeys of a Passionate Traveler by Frances Mayes Okay now. Tag YOU are it!
