Stolen Post

Since I’ve been very busy at work lately and haven’t had time to write a post (shame on them, don’t they know I have a blog to keep up??), I borrowed this meme from The Peanut Queen. I promise an actual post is coming soon!!

Accent: Typically, I don’t have one but I mimic them very easily. You can usually tell who I’ve been around just by listening to me talk. I have a friend who lived in Italy until he was 10 and then moved to Canada. He has this beautiful Italian accent but everything ends in “eh?”. It’s the weirdest accent you’ve ever heard.

Booze of Choice: No debate, tequila. Jose is my friend.

Chore I hate: Whichever one I did last.

Dog or Cat: Dog. Cats are conditional with their love. I'm too dysfunctional to handle that.

Essential Electronics: Cell phone, computer… I’m seeing the need for an iPod in the near future.

Favorite Perfume: Rapture by Victoria’s Secret. Years ago, I got into an elevator with another girl and a guy (that sounds like the start of a porno, doesn’t it???). The girl had tried the perfume on at lunch and the guy could not stop talking about how wonderful it smelled. I’ve worn it ever since.

Gold/Silver: Either, it depends on what color my hair is at the time.

Hometown: Farmersville, Ohio (stop laughing – I’m not making this up!)

Insomnia: Only at night. Seriously, I’ll drag my exhausted body to bed and then lay there for 2 hours watching the ceiling fan.

Job Title: Project Manager but I’m starting to think it should be Opener of the Can of Worms. At least once a week I hear, “you know you opened a can of worms…”. Yeah, well I can open it now or let it explode all over you later.

Kids: I’ll post about this sometime. Until very recently, I had no doubts about wanting a child. Now I’m starting to wonder if I really want to raise a teenager in my early 50s. Selfish, I know.

Living Arrangements: Me, myself and I

Most Admired Trait: It’s actually 2 things. I listen to what others have to say. People love it when you let them talk. Secondly, I give good advice.

Number of Sexual Partners: Since this is on the internet, let’s just say enough to know what I’m doing but not so many that I can’t learn a thing or two.

Overnight Hospital Stays: I had mono in high school and was in the hospital for a week. I finally threatened to stop eating until they sent me home. A person can only eat chicken broth, mashed potatoes and lime jello for so long. Why do they always give you lime jello? Do they not know there are other flavors?

Phobia: Where to begin….Angelina Jolie’s lips (what is in those things????), flying bugs, getting to the end of my life and saying “I wish I would have…”

Quote: I can’t remember if this is supposed to be something I say or something from someone famous so I’ll give one of mine. “Everyone is dysfunctional to some degree. Whether you see it or not depends on how well they hide it.”

Religion: I believe in God. I don’t believe you have to go to church every week. I think it’s about how you live your life not about how many Sundays you can make it to a specific location.

Siblings: One older brother

Time I Wake Up: It just depends on how many times I hit the snooze button. Anywhere between 5:30 and 6:15.

Unusual Talent or Skill: Umm, I can’t think of anything that’s not x-rated. Wait, I seem to make all the men I date disappear within a few months. Does that count?

Vegetable I Refuse to Eat: Cauliflower. I personally think God had a bet with someone…. “HA! They ate it! You owe me 5 bucks!”

Worst Habit: Smoking, lack of patience, over analyzing my life…take your pick.

Xrays: Most recently my foot. I don’t know what happened. It involved 2 pitchers of margaritas at Dos Copas. I woke up the next morning, moved my foot and screamed out in pain.

Yummy Food I Make: I make a killer roast. I’ve been told I make good potato salad. I have a recipe for chocolate bread pudding with caramel icing that I’m dying to try out.

Zodiac Sign: Are you kidding me?? Capricorn. Horny goat…it figures doesn’t it?

You are NOT going to believe me (and I have no idea why I didn't mention it) but I had mono in high school too! I was 15 and they stuck me in the hospital for a week with an IV sticking out my arm. It seemed like MONTHS before I could finally go back to school...and the only way they'd discharge me from the hospital was that my doctor made me promise to eat liver every day for a week (to help build up the iron in my blood.) Did I mention I HATE HATE HATE liver???

I loved your answers, by the way! The horny goat thing...damn...why didn't I think of that??? :)

I'm starting to think we were separated at birth. My first grade teacher was also named Mrs. Kraft and she long dark hair. Too weird.
