You had me at Hello....

Sunday Stealing: The Two Memes in One Meme Meme - Happy Easter!

1: Who is your favorite Musical Artist from when you were a teenager? 
Then and now - Springsteen.  Hands down.  Ever seen him live?  You should.  It's a religious experience.  Don't believe me?  Hmmph..  Then you're just cray-cray.. 

2: Who is your favorite game show host?
Why not ask what my favorite game show is, huh?  I used to love the Match Game.  Brett Somers.  Richard Dawson.  Gene Rayburn as host.  That was a fun show to watch.  Damn funny.  Old Man Periwinkle.. LOL

3: Who is your Favorite Blog hosting service?
Huh?  Really?  Blogger.  It's free.  It works.  That's a dumb question..  For leaving that one in - you get this:

 
 
4: If you could meet anyone again from your childhood, who would it be?
Myself.  And I would slap the shit out of me, and then when I started to listen - I'd give myself lots of advice.  Otherwise?  My aunt Harriet.  I miss her. 
5: Where did you want to live when you were growing up?
 In a pretty house with a white picket fence and lots of kids running around and a really hot husband.  And I was going to be a teacher, a princess and a famous writer.  Yeah.  oh stuff it.  Stop laughing.  LOL

6: What is the most interesting piece of Trivia that you know?
That during every concert, Clarence Clemons requested a whole roasted chicken.  It's in the rider.  LOL  Or was.  Clarence is no longer with us, RIP Big Man..

7: If you could live in any point of history when would it be and why?
 I kind of like where we are now.  If anything, I'd like to check out the future.  See what's up then.  Hang out.  Have a beer.  Then come back.  Win Powerball.   

8: What is the most interesting job you have ever had?

I worked in a couple of different ER's as a secretary/clerk. It's my "go to" job - and I have over 15 years experience.  The job itself wasn't too interesting - it was the shit that went on that was interesting.  One of my favorites ~ Very large man comes in, holding his ass, saying he's got a bad attitude.   To which his friend responded "and that is why you got shot in the ass!"  LOL  It was always different.  Every. single. shift. 

9. Please share one middle school memory. It can be good, bad, ugly, funny. Pictures or words, I don't care, just share.
Brian Lelivre.  6th period math class.  Pointed his pencil at my arm.  And stuck it in.  It stuck.  It bled.  I still have the mark - I could have lead poisoning!  And the teacher?  Mrs. Darling?  Had told us not to speak because she was in the hall talking to another teacher.  She yelled at me for interrupting her.  And then felt really really bad when she saw the blood.  LOL
 
10. What's your favorite Beatle's song?
I'm going to switch up the question.  I'm adding an apostrophe.  So it's my favorite Beatle's song.  See?  Ownership.  Imagine.  John Lennon.
 
11. If I asked you to describe your most comfortable outfit, what would it be?
oh silly silly question..On me?  Or on someone else?  Because if it's on me, it'd be sweats.  Or yoga pants and a tshirt.  If it's someone else?  This one:

  
 
12. Would you rather host a party or be a guest?
I love hosting parties.  Oh man, I just sneezed.  And something flew out.  Oh, sorry, TMI?  What's worse than sneezing and being sick and having a phleghmball fly out?  Not knowing where it went.  LOL  Oh.  Wait.  Where were we?  Host.  Absolutely. 

13. Do you think we will move completely from traditional books to digital ones, and if we do, are you OK with that?
oh Jesus... not only do I have the kindle app.  I even know where and how to download the NY Times best seller list.  And put it into my Calibre library.  And better yet?  The trees are happy.

14. Do you learn best by reading, listening or experiencing?
I'm a doer of things.  Not a doer like that.  Pig.  Which reminds me, when we were in S Carolina last week (which is why I didn't participate until later in the week) we drove past a bunch of mattresses piled up on the ground.  I suggested that we each strap one on our backs and advertise ourselves as whores.  It was a good idea.  In theory.  LOL

15. If you are (or when you were) single, what is the kiss of death for you concerning the opposite sex? (That is, what is one trait or behavior or habit or anything at all that immediately turns you off from considering that person a potential match for you?)
Neediness.  Can't stand it.  If you need a mommy I'm not for you.  Oh, yeah, and being batshit crazy.  That's a total turnoff.  In case you haven't noticed?  I have a pretty strong personality.  I need someone equally as strong or stronger - otherwise it won't work - and my equal intelligently.  I don't like having to dumb it down.  For anyone. 

16. Snacks. Salty or sweet?
Mix it up!  Gimme some popcorn and M&M's.  Together.  Or ohhhhhhh... some of that delicious stuff that you can buy now - popcorn with white and milk chocolate drizzled all over it.  And then some salt thrown on top?  I just had a moment for myself.  You might want to look away.   LOL

17. Look around you in a four foot radius. What object is around you that you didn't realize was there or forgot was there? How long has it been there?
ooh.  Kitchen Aid recipe book.  It's been there a year.  And I don't buy many recipe books because really, you can look anything up online these days.  But I won this one in a silent auction.  Along with my pretty pink Kitchen Aid mixer.  With the clear bowl.  I hugged the box.  Can you tell I heart my Kitchen Aid?  I think everyone should have one.  It's my favorite appliance.  You should ask that question some time.  What's your favorite appliance?  Men will probably answer microwave.  But trust me - women?  If they have one, they should all say "my Kitchen Aid mixer"..

18. What is your favorite Tom Cruise movie?
He's a doofus.  He jumped the shark for me when he jumped on Oprah's couch.  I don't care.  Oh.  Wait.  I liked Risky Business.  And the one where he's a sports agent.  Dammit.  Do not make me like him again!  Shit.  You had me at "hello"...

19. You buy a bottle of shampoo and discover that you don't like what it does to your hair at all. What do you do with that full bottle?
Throw that shit out.  What's it going to do - turn into one that I like? 

20. Your favorite spring comfort food? (Last week it was beverage.)
Ahhhh, no.  Last week Lance was sick.  There was no last week.  My comfort food any time of the year is baked goods.  If I'm upset, I bake.  Sad?  I bake.  Depressed?  Bake.  Batshit crazy?  Nahhhhhh.... I'm not batshit crazy.  LOL
