Because it beats an empty page when I am determined to post something. Petra suggested it.
1. Because this has come up several times in the past month, I hate chocolate and mint together. No, it is not any better in coffee either.
2. I can eat Miracle Whip straight out of the jar. I’m not saying that I ever have, I’m just saying I like it that much.
3. I don’t like black pepper.
4. I would rather listen to hip hop than Dixieland jazz, and I’m not really a big fan of hip hop.
5. I cannot creep Facebook wall conversations without giving it away that I am creeping. Haha
6. Almost turned this into a confessional post. LOL
7. I have no tattoos. I do, however, have a scarred up left hand because I am clumsy with knives. I actually have a kind of funny story about the last time I had to get stitches, but for the most part, you had to be there.
8. I weighed 131 pounds when I left for basic training. I’m 5’10”. I was a stick.
9. Had some serious puppet skills as a teen.
10. Hallucinated twice during dental visits as a kid. Ah, fun times.
11. Has neither read the books nor watched the movies of the Twilight series nor do I have any desire to.
12. Has a weakness for Shakespeare’s sonnets. Hmm, ok, that’s kind of confessional.
13. Could only watch Blackhawk Down once.
14. Sometimes mixes writing styles in the middle of a post and refuses to adjust for consistency.
15. Can’t listen to The Nutcracker Suite without the urge to imitate the orchestra’s conductor…particularly around my children.
And I am every bit as boring as I thought when I am not being confessional. LOL
And I haven’t spell/grammar or otherwise proofed this.
Just before bed update: 16. I HATE talking on the telephone.
Yes I know now the title doesn’t match, but I meant to include that one about the phone and got distracted and forgot until I was driving home. haha
LOL @ #15. Me either! But without the kids…
Honestly, it’s not just the Nutcracker Suite, but that’s the only one I can name off the top of my head and know for sure I do that. lol
I had a drug dream/hallucination at the dentist as a kid as well! Astronauts and a merry go round is all I remember but it was totally awesome. 🙂
I can remember opening my eyes, and Dr Bryan was Darth Vader. I looked over at his tech (whose name I can never remember), and she was a white duck with a squared off wooden beak. I thought it was cool. Then another time I had more of an out-of-body experience. I was on the ceiling watching them work on me. I was like 17 or 18 the last time he gave me laughing gas, and I had a “bad trip” that time.
1. What’s wrong with you?! 😉
2. What’s wrong with you?!
3. See 1. & 2. 😉
4. I had to sit through a whole Dixieland show in Pigeon Forge as a teen. I had blocked that out until just now. Thanks! :-/
5. I’m a pretty good spy when I want to be. lol
6. Confessionals are always a good read! I rarely post them though; I prefer for people to think I’m perfect… Hahahaha! 🙂
7. No tattoos or knife scars here! No tattoos just because I couldn’t afford them when I was younger and really wanted some. And I’m too scared of knives to be clumsy with them. lol
8. Photo of the toothpick? 🙂
9. I can’t comment on anything pertaining to puppets.
10. I don’t think I’ve ever hallucinated.
11. You made the right choice.
12. Yuck. Shakespeare. 😛
13. I’ve seen it multiple times.
14. Me too.
15. LOL
16. Oh man! Me too!!! With the exception of like 7 people – 3 of who are my husband and teens!!! Everyone else goes to voicemail 95% of the time.
1. Apparently I don’t like mint?
2. That’s genetic.
3. I don’t know. Anomaly? I do like it in certain “Cajan” dishes. I like every other pepper. :dunno:
4. You’re welcome. 🙂 I discovered my dislike for it in college when I took Jazz Appreciation.
5. LOL
6. Maybe I should put up the big one that came up out of Chapter 8? hahaha
7. I’ll leave my tattoo comments to myself because they are judgmental. lol I should be scared of them as many times as I’ve sliced myself open.
8. Ugh. Wait. There are wedding photos on FB. But, yeah. I don’t know. So many of them are soooo unflattering…and generally speaking have me holding a cigarette. LOL
9. HAHAHA I think we had a discussion at church once about puppets. lol
10. I haven’t outside of the dentist chair.
12. What is wrong with you???
13. I cried so hard and so long, I haven’t been able to go through it again.
16. Mom & James. And he hates talking on the phone too so those never last long. Jamie is as bad or worse than me. Worse I’d say since I didn’t have issues with the phone until I worked a telephone switch. Chad is a whole ‘nother story… 😉
6. If you did, then I would definitely say “you are braver than I!” 😉
8. Oh yeah – I’ve seen those! Yeah, you were a smidge skinny. 🙂
12. People say that a lot, actually. Andrew actually loves poetry, though I’m not sure he’s a big Shakespeare fan, and I’m like “yeah yeah – whatever”. I’m so cold and unfeeling. ha!
13. Yeah, it was a good one. I may have actually cried a little in it… and I don’t generally cry.
6. If I get really desperate for readers…nah. I’m still not so sure I’ll go there. 😉
