Your stupid phone calls are interrupting my Candy Crush..


Saturday 9: So Much to Say


Thanks to Kelly for recommending The Dave Matthews Band. (Hear it here.) 
*Thanks Kelly - I heart Dave.  I've seen him so many times it's ridonkulous... once with James Brown at Madison Square Garden.  3rd Row.  Ahhhhhh... those were the days..
1) The lyrics refer to a baby's "one year of crying." When was the last time you cried ... felt weepy ... or at least teared up?
Oh Jesus, I cry at Hallmark commercials.  I was crying in a dream the other night.  I was remembering my aunt Harriet's funeral.  That was killer.  
2) Let's lighten it up a little. When was the last time you laughed really hard? 
I almost peed my pants once.  Wait.  I did pee my pants once.  My friend Kim and I are so in tune - we can make each other laugh like that with just a word or even a look.   I laugh often.  It's a good thing.  My friend at work, Davida - she likes to tell me what is going on in the bathroom while she's in there.  That makes me laugh my ass off.  Sometimes it's so inappropriate that I can't repeat.  I'm glad we're friends like that.  LOL
3) Do you have "so much to say" that hasn't been said yet? Tell us if you owe someone a phone call, note, email or text.
Nope.  I missed last week from the meme's though.  I've been busy, shit to do - places to go, people to see, stuff like that.  I'm surprised at how busy I've been!  Oh and I have a new obsession.  The Walking Dead.  I'm almost through season 2.  How I didn't get hooked on this before, I'll never know.  
4) Earlier this summer, Dave took a bike ride before a show and his tire blew out. He didn't have a cell phone with him and was afraid of missing that night's performance. Fortunately two fans -- driving to see Dave Matthews Band in concert -- recognized him by the side of the road and gave him a ride to the show. Share a recent act of kindness you either did, or received. 
I love to pay for the person behind me in the drive through line.  Especially if they look like they're having a bad day.  And then I take off really really fast so they can't thank me.  :)
5) Before he hit it big, Dave Matthews was a bartender. What job did you have right before the one you have now?
 Court clerk.  I actually thought about doing a blog about "Shit Defendants Say"... It would be a killer, and I could probably retire on the royalties from the TV show.  But alas, now I just get "can you tell me so-and-so's phone number?"  Oh, the one you were sent a letter about SIX MONTHS AGO that you never read????  Sure...  How about you write it down this time, your stupid phone calls are interrupting my Candy Crush game..
6) The Dave Matthews Band recorded an album live at the Red Rocks Amphitheater, in the mountains near Denver. Is there a trip to the mountains in your future?
Oh, I wish..  I'd love to go back to the left coast, or even inland from there.  I am headed to the Upper Peninsula of Michigan next month.  There are great hills there.  :)
  7) Do you suffer from hay fever or allergies? 
Nope.  I don't think I'm allergic to anything.  Well, except men that have a penis coming out of their forehead, that is.  What is the plural of penis, anyway?
8) What's in your pocket right now?
A wocket..
9) American Express promotes "Small Business Saturday," and encourages us to shop at local, independent retailers. Is there a shop, boutique or restaurant in your town that you're particularly fond of?
I love to shop local.  Eggs, chicken, stuff like that.  I don't do much shopping at the big names stores at all, really.  Mostly local, most of the time.

Yes. That's right. I have Ted Williams' cryogenic frozen head in my freezer.



This week's questions come from Shopafreakingholic and it was stolen there as well, but the search doesn't go back any farther.

30.] What brand of batteries do you usually get?
Rechargeable.  
31.] Are any of your friends pregnant or have kids?  
Seriously.  I'm in my 40's.  This is a dumb question.  That's like asking a construction worker if he knows anyone that has a hammer.  Jeez luiz...
32.] What is in your medicine cabinet?
Well, how about first - I don't have a medicine cabinet.  I keep my drugs well hidden, thank you.  The tank on the back of the toilet.. The secret cabinet under the stairs..  You know.  Places like that.  
33.] What's your favorite aspect of the natural world?  
Ahhhhhhhhhh that I'm in it?  What the hell kind of question is that?
34.] What's your favorite man made thing?  
The wheel.  Gets me places much faster than Ugga Booga dragging me by my long hair.  Oh wait - I cut that off.  LOL
35.] Can you whistle properly?  
Define a proper whistle... 
36.] What song do you think is the most widely heard in the world?  
Not sure - but I can tell you that it's not one by Justin Bieber.   He's an ass.  Who should go away.  
37.] Where's the strangest place a fast food restaurant was located?
In my pants.  What kind of question is that.  What do you expect for an answer?  In the middle of a corn field?  Then it would be run by Malachai and his murderous friends, and they would serve the murdered as a Quarter Pounder with cheese?  Look where my mind goes when you ask these questions!
38.] What states surround your state? Or are you not land locked?
I'm on top of Indiana and Illinois, but then the rest is all lake, baby!
39.] Do you own binoculars or monoculars? What do you use them for?  
Was this written in the stone ages?  Who the hell has a set of monoculars any more?  Who doesn't have some kind of binoculars.  Dumb. Dumb.  Dumb.  
40.] Do you ever wish you had a telescope on the roof or attic to stargaze? 
I've never been in my attic and the roof is slanted.  So I would say NO to both.  What I do have, however, is a Jeep.  That I can drive into the middle of a field, and after picking up the aforementioned quarter pounder with cheese that used to be little Bill - I can look up and see all the stars I want.

41.] What's your favorite chocolate bar? 
The one that doesn't put any more fat on my ass.

42.] Do you fall asleep easy in cars? How about planes, trains and boats? 
No.  But planes?  All I have to do is open my book and I'm out like a light.  LOL
43.] Would you rather live a year of your life in every major country or stay in the same place you live forever without vacations?
That's dumb!  Eventually you'd run out of countries - what do you do then?  Go back?
44.] What will you not tolerate in a person?  
Ignorance.  Makes me crazy.  
45.] Do you forgive others easier or yourself? Why is this?  
Others. For the most part.  Didn't you ever read my post on forgivenessMaybe you should..
46.] How was God made, if he exists?
Huh?
47.] Have you ever done aqua aerobics or polo?  
No.  They're dumb.  
48.] What age were you when you learned how to swim?
Probably when I was tossed into the ocean as a young child... Really, I have no idea.
49.] What shows or characters scared you as a child?
Nothing.  I was afraid of Mary.  LOL
50.] Do you stay up all night on New Years Eve/Day or go to bed after 12am?  
Meh.... Depends on what I'm doing.  
51.] What's something unusual currently in your fridge?  
I don't think so.  Milk, food, yogurt, mmm sesame noodles.  That's all.  Just stuff.
52.] How about your freezer?
What are you getting at?  Yes.  That's right.  I have Ted Williams' cryogenic frozen head in my freezer.  
53.] What could you be doing now that is more productive?  
Taking a shower.  Cleaning.  Probably just about anything.
54.] Give me some lyrics from the song that's stuck in your head
B A Bay.. B E Bee B I Bicky Bi B O Bo Bicky Bi Bo B U Bu Bicky Bi Bo Bu
put that in your pipe and smoke it!
55.] What's your favorite type of firework?
The ones that *don't* go off in my hand. 

if you knew Mary - you know it was HELL, not hell

Thanks to Carielle for recommending this great song.


1) When she first burst onto the scene, Pink was a self-proclaimed tomboy. Now she's glam. Literally. She was on the cover of the June issue of Glamour and is a spokeswoman for Covergirl cosmetics. Does a celebrity endorsement increase your interest in a product?
 
Nope.  I don't care who endorses something - it's whether or not I liked it.  And I remember reading one time that a celebrity had to actually use the product to endorse it.  Like the hair color ones?  All they had to do was do one chunk of hair - and they could endorse it.  And have the rest colored professionally.  So just because they endorse something doesn't mean they actually use it.  They just get it free.   Whatever.  I'd say something was great if I could get it free.  OH MY GOD.  Did you see that Porsche just go by?!  That's MINE.  I endorse it!  See?  Just like that.  LOL
 

2) This song is about a woman who feels her lover slipping away. Do you believe a couple can repair a relationship once it starts to sour?
 
Depends on why it soured.  Did it sour because he was a cheating scumbag with a giant penis coming out of his forehead (and a little one in his pants that he used to think with)?  Then no.  If it soured because they got caught up in life and forgot to talk to each other?  Then yes.  If it's something big - like "Oh, I forgot to mention when we got married 3 years ago that I hate children, and got a vasectomy when I was 18" soured?  Then.  No.  See?  There's differences...
3) As a little girl, Pink wanted to be an Olympic gymnast. If you could excel (or, if you do excel) at any sport, which one?
 
I am thoroughly convinced that if I could have done a split and didn't get thrown out of Kathy Corrigan's dance studio because of that, then I would have been more limber and flexible and as a result - more popular with the boys in high school.  Yeah.  

4) Pink is married to motorcycle pro Carey Hart. Have you ever ridden really fast on a motorcyle?
 
The ONE time I was on a motorcycle when I was a teenager, my friend's brother took me for a ride.  We had to avoid all different areas of town because if my mother saw me there would be hell to pay.  And if you knew Mary - you know it was HELL, not hell.  There was a wee bit of a tyrant living inside her.  Couldn't go to Park Ave - my mother might see us..  couldn't go through the square - my mother might see us.  Etc. Etc. Etc.  We pull back up to JC's so he could drop me off - who pulls up next to us?  My mother.  And yeah - there was HELL to pay.  She yelled at him, yelled at me, yelled at anyone that would listen.  U. G.  L.  Y.  not pretty.  
5) When she found out she was pregnant, Pink says she gave up whiskey and cigarettes … but admits she misses the whiskey. Do you have a habit you know you should break?
 
Probably crack.  Cause you know, crack is whack.  I know I should quit smoking.  I'm working on it.  And I should probably clean my house more.  It's never going to look all put together like some people's houses.  Really.  Who spends all that time making sure everything is in it's place, and there is a place for everything.  I love chaos.  LOL
6) In 2010, she fell out of the aerial harness that was supposed to carry her across the stage. Are you afraid of heights?

Well no, but I wouldn't put my ass up in an aerial harness any time soon.  That's even more whack than crack!

7) Pink enjoys showing off her tattoos. Do you have any body art?
 
Yup.  And I'm going to get another one.  
8) Pink can be very salty in her language. When was the last time you cursed?
 
Are you fucking kidding me?  Jesus, Mary and the carpenter (as my late mother used to say, God rest her soul)...  That's pretty funny.  Like the Gal herself says - I'm like Nancy Drew with a potty mouth.  
9) On her website, Pink sells 10 different t-shirts. Do you have a favorite t-shirt? What does it look like/say?
 
It's my tailgate shirt from my friend Rich's memorial tailgate.  He was cool.  Therefore the shirt is also cool.  As am I when I wear it.

Because I love to know shit..


Saturday 9: Dedicated to the One I Love

Thanks to Diana for recommending the Mamas and the Papas. (You can listen to the song here.)

1) The lyrics include the line, "Love can never be exactly what we want it to be." Are you happy with your love life?
Oh Jesus.. Do I REALLY need to answer this?  Oh, wait.  There are a couple of prospects on the horizon actually.  It's starting to look up!  It could be better - but it could also be worse.  :)
2) Another lyric is, "Each night before you go to bed, whisper a little prayer for me." Do you say your prayers?
Oh dear God, please let me just get through this and I swear I promise, I mean it this time!  I will go to church EVERY Sunday.  Saturday too!    Oh.  Wait.  No.  Not really.  I say a little prayer every once in a while for someone that is sick or dying, but I can't ask for something when I don't give in return. 

3) Mama Michelle and Papa John were married in real life. It didn't end well -- not for the couple and not for the band. Do you believe you could work successfully with a romantic partner?
Nope.  Ever hear the expression "don't shit where you eat"?  Perfect analogy for it. 
4) After the band broke up, Michelle tried her hand at acting and eventually became a regular on the nighttime soap, Knott's Landing. Of course, she could live off of her music royalties while she learned her new craft. If money was no object, what career would like to try?
Private Investigator.  I love to know shit.  I know shit now.  But I want to know more shit.  
5) There is a famous rumor -- completely false -- that Mama Cass died while eating a ham sandwich. Can you think of another urban legend? 
Richard Gere.  Hampster.  'Nuff said.
6) In the 1960s, every high school girl wanted to wear her hair like Michelle and Cass -- long and straight. Can you recall a fashion trend from your school days?
Elementary?  I had a rocking pair of plaid bell bottoms.  Red plaid.  I thought I was cool.  Junior High?  Feathers in your ears.  High school?  Smoking.  So far I've rid myself of 2 of the 3.  Working on the 3rd.  
7) With the Fourth of July falling on Thursday, are you able to enjoy a looooong four-day holiday weekend?
No.  Shut up.  Longest work day EVER.  Blech..
8) Many communities have parades to celebrate Independence Day. Have you ever ridden on a float or marched in a parade?
Marched in a few back in my HS band days, and actually rode in the one this week, tossing candy at all the little munchkins.  I only gave the ones that weren't acting like animals the ring pops.  Those were like gold.  LOL
9) In honor of the Fourth of July, name your favorite Founding Father.
John Quincy Adams, of course :)

We called it "Eric and Steve's Great Adventure"..

ummertime meme

Welcome back to Sunday Stealing which originated on WTIT: The Blog authored by Bud Weiser. Here we will steal all types of memes from every corner of the blogosphere. Our promise to you is that we will work hard to find the most interesting and intelligent memes. You may have heard of the expression, “honor amongst thieves”. In that age-old tradition, we also have our rules. First, we always credit the blog that we stole it from and we will “fess up” to the blog owner where we stole the meme. We also provide a link to the victim's post. (It's our way of saying "Thanks!") We do sometimes edit the original meme, usually to make it more relevant to our global players, to challenge our players, sometimes to select that meme's best questions, or simply to make it less repetitive from either this new meme or recently asked questions from a prior featured meme. 
Let's go!!!


This week's questions come from Academic Cog and she wrote the questions herself because she hadn't seen a summer meme in a long time.

1.) What first tells you that Summer is here? 
I live in Michigan.  When summer has arrived I can shut off the heat.  Finally.  LOL
2.) Name your five of your favorite distinctively Summer habits or customs. 
No shoes.  Flip flops.  Capris.  Beach.  Outside.  Jeep.  :)
3.) What is your favorite smell of Summer? 
Not the sweat, that's for sure.  And my sweat right now smells like a mixture of rum, vodka, Sambuca and a whole bunch of nastiness.  Ugh.  I need a shower.  
4.) What is your favorite taste of Summer? 
Not vomit.  Nope nosiree bob.  Grilled just about anything..
5.) Favorite Summer memory? 
Certainly not throwing up over the side of a boat.  Not that I did that yesterday.  Nope.  Nosiree bob.  Camping with my friends.  We always had a good time.  Even that one time on the island where it rained, and the rats were bigger than our tents.  
6.) Extreme heat or extreme cold? Which would you choose and why? 
Well, I don't like either.  So I'm not going to choose, dammit. I like 70's and 50's at night, please and thank you. 
7.) What books do you plan to read for the season? 
Ooooh thanks, you just reminded me I downloaded some yesterday.  A bunch.  Under the Dome for one.  I'm re-reading "A Walk in the Woods" right now.  If you've never read it, it's worth it.  Hysterical.  
8.) What is your favorite part of summer? 
Driving with the top down.
9.) What's your favorite quintessentially summer food? Least favorite? 
Oh sweet corn and ribs.  But it has to be sweet corn from the sweet corn man.  It's the best ever.  And least favorite?  hmmm....  I don't think I have a least favorite! Go figure!
10.) Best beverage to beat the summer heat: 
Water.  Diet Pepsi.  Certainly not (or ever again) a mixture of rum punch, "open your mouth and let me pour" anything.  Ever again.  Blech.  
11.) Least favorite/most annoying thing related to summer?
Nothing.  I heart summer.  
12.) Pick one: the lake /the beach. 
Well, considering that I live in MICHIGAN - they are one and the same.  So I pick the Cape.  The ocean.  Martha's Vineyard.  I heart Martha and her Vineyard. 
13.) Most amusing summer vacation trip you've ever taken?
The ones where Kim and I pee our pants laughing.  We have fun.  But really, Marianne and I took a trip once and brought pictures of Eric and Steve.  Eric and Steve were all over Key West, having their pictures taken.  THAT was a blast.  Prolly one of the most amusing trips ever.  We called it "Eric and Steve's Great Adventure" LOL
14.) Most ridiculous/cringe-inducing/blush-provoking summer outfit you have seen? (Bonus points if you yourself were wearing it!) 
Oh God if there is photographic evidence I swear I'll kill someone
15.) Your absolute dream summer afternoon would be 
After the beach, come back to the cottage and hit the outside shower, then grill out.  I miss the cottage.  I wish I'd said no to selling it.  :(
Happy Weekend!

Did you just call me fat?

Welcome to Saturday: 9. What we've committed to our readers is that we will post 9 questions every Saturday. Sometimes the post will have a theme, and at other times the questions will be totally unrelated. Those weeks we do "random questions," so-to-speak. We encourage you to visit other participants posts and leave a comment. Because we don't have any rules, it is your choice. We hate rules. We love memes, however, and here is today's meme!


Thanks to Bankerchick for suggesting JT **Nice one Bankerchick!  :)
1) When was the last time that you got dressed up, or to borrow from Mr. Timberlake, "fixed up to the nines?"
My cousin's wedding.  I'm really just a sweats and tshirts kind of gal.  Or maybe that's all that fits.  Or maybe it's comfortable.  Or maybe I need to lose a few pounds.  Don't you judge me.  Did you just call me fat?  Oh I'm going to bust you up...
 

2) Justin Timberlake is known for his threads. Do you try to keep up with fashion trends?
Oh yeah, I'm outstanding in my field.  Or is that out standing in my field?  Yeah.  I dress just like the Kardashians.  Or Paris Hilton.  LOLOLOLOLOLOL  How about I dress like me, and others follow suit (pun intended)...  Although - if I looked like them, I probably would wear that shit.  Even though it's expensive.  What?  Did you just call me fat?  I'm going to punch you in the face now..
3) While on tour, Justin has a cigar roller on call so that he and the band can enjoy a "gentleman's club" atmosphere back stage. Do you enjoy the smell of a good cigar?
Meh.... I'd rather smell an old fashioned pipe.  My uncle John used to smoke one.  Every time I smell one I think of him.  He was a great guy.   
4) Justin appeared on Star Search when still in grade school, and he's been working ever since. When Crazy Sam was that age, her only "job" was to load the dishwasher and for this she earned her $1/day allowance. Did you work when you were a kid?
LOOK.  I don't know what you're up to.  Just because my mother told us that she didn't have us because she thought we were cute - she basically told us many times that we needed to pick up the slack.  At 16 we were told to go out and walk our happy asses up Rte 18 until we got a job, and not to come home until we did.  Sometimes, I think she was serious.  Oh, and I had to trim the hedges.  I HATED it.  I finally figured out that the way out was to butcher them.  Never had to do it again.  LOL
5) JT has appeared several times on Saturday Night Live, a show that premiered before he was born. Who is your most favorite ever SNL castmember of all time?
Oh.  Hands down.  Gilda Radner.  Funnier than shit, she was.  Not that shit is ever funny.  But well, sometimes it is.  Like when you see someone walking that obviously sharted and didn't clean their pants right?  That's funny shit right there.  
6) Justin is a very good golfer (6 handicap). Will you play this summer?
Are you a...... player?  Wink Wink... nudge nudge.. know what I mean know what I mean?  Maybe.  OH!  I just realized - with the "girls" out of the way, it'll make my swing SO much easier.  Damn.  Now I'm going to - just because I CAN..
7) A round of golf requires hours outside in the elements. Have you ever endured a painful sunburn?
Yes.  In Cancun.  It was so bad, bra AND panties both had to go.  That hurt like a mo'fo..  And we won't even talk about the tequila.  Tequila bad.  Very very bad.. Gives me Alzheimers.  
8) When they were young, Justin dated Britney Spears. Obviously, it's been easy for him to keep up with her successes and problems over the years. Do you wonder how one of your exes is doing?
OK.  Here is the weird thing?  I was friends with one on Facebook, and he "unfriended" me..  Another realized I was friends with his daughter and blocked me - the last one blocked me because I wouldn't be his friend, I'm friends with a couple of others - one wanted to sext one time (ahhh, no??).  Just bizarre.   Oh.  But no.  I don't really wonder.  I know how most of them are doing.  And if the alcoholic ever sobers up and tries to do his twelve steps - I told him he can skip me in his "making amends".  Blech.  
9) Ever since his days with N'Sync, Justin Timberlake has supported music education. Did your grade school offer music classes? If so, do you remember any of the songs you learned then?
Mr. Burke.  Flute.   I played from 4th grade through high school.  Twenty Five or 6 2 4.  Yup.  I'll never speak of it again.  Don't bring it up.  I will deny everything.

It's not the size that matters..

Welcome back to Sunday Stealing which originated on WTIT: The Blog authored by Bud Weiser. Here we will steal all types of memes from every corner of the blogosphere. Our promise to you is that we will work hard to find the most interesting and intelligent memes. You may have heard of the expression, “honor amongst thieves”. In that age-old tradition, we also have our rules. First, we always credit the blog that we stole it from and we will “fess up” to the blog owner where we stole the meme. We also provide a link to the victim's post. (It's our way of saying "Thanks!") We do sometimes edit the original meme, usually to make it more relevant to our global players, to challenge our players, sometimes to select that meme's best questions, or simply to make it less repetitive from either this new meme or recently asked questions from a prior featured meme. 
Let's go!!!


This week's questions come from Do These Shoes Match This Purse? Maggie doesn't say where she got it, but it was probably stolen there as well.
