Internet Social Network and a Blog Meme

I haven't done this for awhile. Check out what it looks like on Mystery's ISN page.

(Clicking on the pic will open it up in a new tab or window!) I haven't been tracking her as much as I have in the past, and some things just don't change! Oh to be a teenager these days, huh?! I would totally be trying to figure out as much as I could with new technology so that I'd be able to do all kinds of sneaky things with it! If my Mom were alive she'd tell you that I was terrible as a teen and always stretched the limits! LOL, the limits have stretched a lot since then!

Blog Meme Alert!!

I got tagged by kwoneshe2 at Storms Never Last and this is my very first time! (Girl, I'm going over to your blog next to leave my comments!!) This was a Sunday Meme, but I'm doing it on Tuesday! So what is it actually called? LOL, I have no clue! If I tagged you then either wait until Sunday or just re-name it like I did!!

Tuesday Meme

1-Were you named after anybody: Yes. One of my Mom's favorite teachers (first name)

2- What’s your favorite lunch meat: turkey ham, Mmmmmm!

3- If you were another person, would you be friends with you: Oh yeah! That sounds like one of those things like getting a wife to do all my chores. LOL, of course!!

4- Do you use sarcasm a lot: I don't think I do. I have people around me using it all the time as a standard way of communicating and it gets really old, really fast. If it wouldn't be funny if i was true/real then it's seriously not funny. I do understand it and I know I hear it in my head often enough, but try not to use it a lot.

5- What is your favorite cereal: Cinnamon Life

6- What is your favorite ice cream: I don't have a clear favorite but a few that I toy with like Black Cherry, Butter Crunch and maybe every now and then Fudge Ripple. I usually think salty, not sweet so you can have the ice cream!

7- Do you think you are strong: I always bounce back, so I must be! You know that saying that you wouldn't be given more than you can handle? I wish I couldn't always handle so much!

8- What is your least favorite thing about yourself: Physically, 'the girls' could be an actual"A" instead of wannabes! I've nursed my babies and have memories of "C", but just want to be able to wear more styles!

9- What was the last thing you ate: A turkey and cheese sandwich with mayonaisse and mustard on seeded soft rye bread.

10- If you were a crayon, what color would you be: Aquamarine. It always comes out so nice and bright on paper!

11- What is your favorite scent: Lily of the Valleys

12- Favorite sports to watch: Any sport my kid is in. If they ever make it to televised then I'd watch that too. Otherwise, No thanks!

13- What is your hair color: I think the box said Medium Brown.

14- Do you prefer scary movies or happy ending movies: Happy Endings! Corny? Sure!! Chick Flicks Rule!!

15- What is your favorite food: Popcorn! Yes, I'll have butter in it, but don't drown it, ok?

16- What is the last movie you watched: Iron Man, on Pay Per View!

17- Do you prefer summer or winter: Summer! I love wearing less clothes!

18- What is your favorite dessert: Pineapple Upside Down Cake, freshly baked!

19- What is your favorite book: "No Flying in the House". A kid's book that I remember my 3rd grade teacher reading to our class! I read it to Glory when she was younger and now waiting for Daisy's turn! I loved the make believe parts and wanted them to be real SO badly! Oh, and the coolest books on the planet are all kid's books! In case you didn't know that!

20- What are your favorite TV shows: Gray's Anatomy, Eli Stone, NCIS, Lipstick Jungle, CSI (all) , and there are more but those start of the list for sure!

And now I have to tag people! I'm not sure if it's 5 or 6 because I was the "and" on her list before, but I'll tag 6! I sure hope that if I tag you that it's not one of those things that bugs you and you get a chance to play along!

Let's tag:

1)

2) Bethany

3) DragonflyMama

(And for some that still come by and comment please don't let this scare you off! But you know you want to get back to posting again, right?!)

4) SMILF at Wifezilla Diaries

5) B'sMommy

6) Medea

Have fun everyone and I can't wait to see your replies!

I'm tired of being a grump!

So I'm borrowing from Stefanie and posting this little "Getting to Know.." stuff.

LIVING ARRANGEMENT?
Daddy and I live here with Mystery, Jabber and Daisy. We have a doggy "The Boy" and our calico Kitty, and giving away some fish as soon I freecycle them to make room for a big girl bed. Charming moved out right after he graduated HS (and in with XI until this past year) and Glory moved at the end of summer after HS graduation across the country from me with GloryBe. Ok, maybe only 2/3's across but far eh-frickin-nuff!

WHAT BOOK ARE YOU READING NOW?
Waiting for "The Sweet Potato Queens' book of love" by Jill Conner Browne to come in at the library. It's not new, but I'm just hearing about it! The last one I read was "Who's Afraid of a Large Black Man" by Charles Barkley.

WHAT IS ON YOUR MOUSEPAD?
It's black with faded fingernail polish that indicates arrows from the center of each side. I used this one back when I taught preschool so that I could tell the children to "go to the top arrow".

FAVORITE BOARDGAME?
Trivial Pursuit. Not that I win or anything but it can be fun and funny to hear some of the answers! My all time favorite doesn't need a board and we used to play it back when I was in the military. Ever heard of "Fuzzy Duck"?

FAVORITE MAGAZINE?
People - if I'm going to buy one that goes on the back of the throne then it might as well be a fun one. Yes, I do the crosswords. Eventually.

FAVORITE SMELL?
Lily of the Valley flowers, ever since I was a little kid. The season for them is too short!

LEAST FAVORITE SMELL?
Vomit. Who likes that one?

FAVORITE SOUND?
Baby burbling. The stuff before they know what they're saying. Or maybe they do know?

WHAT IS THE FIRST THING YOU THINK OF WHEN YOU WAKE UP IN THE MORNING?
What day is today? (And do I have to be awake yet?)

FAVORITE COLOR?
Coral. It's nice and warm.

FAVORITE FRUIT?
Apples fresh from the orchard in the fall.

HOW MANY RINGS TO ANSWER THE TELEPHONE?
Maybe 3? If the kids are home and it gets to three then I know it's not for them. Most of the time I'm doing something and one is not possible.

WHAT IS MOST IMPORTANT IN LIFE?
Family and health.

FAVORITE FOOD?
Chicken and shrimp jambalaya. For snacks it's salty instead of sweet for me.

CHOCOLATE OR VANILLA?
Vanilla, preferably french vanilla ice cream please.

DO YOU DRIVE FAST?
A couple mph over the limit is probably being honest here.

DO YOU SLEEP WITH A STUFFED ANIMAL?
No, there's not enough room even if I wanted to.

STORMS: COOL OR SCARY?
Cool. Even more fun when it's light and warm enough to go outside and dance in the rain.

WHAT WAS YOUR FIRST CAR?
Mine was a Birth Control Mobile. 1967 Ford Galazy Custom 500, white with eggshell blue interior and 3 speed on the column. My father picked it out for me.

DO YOU EAT THE STEMS OF BROCCOLI?
Sure do!

WHAT WOULD BE YOUR FAVORITE JOB IN THE WORLD?
Mom and one day Gigi (Grandma). For income something with putting photos, video and/or audio) into video format to save family memories or to use in teaching young kids.

WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE HAIR COLOR?
A nice dark brown with a hint of purplish when the light hits it just right.

HAVE YOU EVER BEEN IN LOVE?
Yes, I sure have and am right now!

IS YOUR GLASS HALF FULL OR HALF EMPTY?
Half full.

WHAT ARE YOUR FAVORITE MOVIES?
Pretty Woman, How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days, and anything with Denzel.

DO YOU USE THE RIGHT KEYS WHEN WORKING ON A KEYBOARD?
Most of the time. Yes, I look even though a lot of the keys have the letters worn out so I don't think I really look. I just watch my fingers?

WHAT IS UNDER YOUR BED?
Shoes and some out of season clothes in a small flat box.

WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE NUMBER?
Not sure that I have one but maybe 12.

WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE SPORT TO WATCH?
On tv I don't have any. Seriously, I can sit and look at the screen but I see fonts and graphics shadows instead of the sport on the screen. Drives Daddy nuts! (He would interject "Go Steelers!" here) IRL though any sports that my kids are in.

WHO IS YOUR CURRENT FAVORITE BAND OR RECORDING ARTIST?
Stevie Wonder. The man is awesome, and not just his music.

WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE BEVERAGE?
White russians. Goes down nice and smooth!
