Getting to Know Me

I get these random emails--or facebook requests--of those 50 questions where you answer it then pass it along to so many other people, see how they respond, if they respond then send it back to you kind of emails and requests.

(Did that sentence make any sense?)

Anyway, I love those. Mostly because I love writing down my first response and then over-analyze myself as to exactly why that was my first response. And since I promised to write more and I'm tapped right now I'm stealing one of those 50 question emails or requests because, well... because it's fun!

So here it is, fun times for all!

Favorites

1. What was your favorite food as a child?  Macaroni & cheese. (that was an easy one!)
2. What is the #1 most played song on your iPod? Oh geez, #1? And iPod? Ok, so... I would guess it's probably one of three songs: "Jolene" by Zac Brown Band (originally by Ray LaMontagne), "Stutter" by Maroon 5, or anything by Adele--probably "Rumor Has It". Uh huh, that's right. Mama loves to sing, and if I can belt it out, I'm going to listen to it over and over and over again.
3. What is one of your favorite quotes? Said like Ross Geller from Friends "Fine by me!" And I usually do the huffing pout and mouth quiver before I say it.

4. What is your favorite indoor/outdoor activity? (Insert Beavis/Butthead laugh) heh, heh, heh, heh, you said indoor activity.Ok, seriously, if I'm inside, I'm probably on the computer, playing World of Warcraft, reading my favorite blogs or writing. If I'm outside, I prefer to take walks with the kids. They always see the most interesting stuff, or make the most boring stuff interesting.
5. What chore do you absolutely hate doing? Cleaning the bathroom. I hate the toilet. I will do laundry with a smile on my face; vacuum/sweep/mop the floors singing; wash the dishes begrudgingly but I'll do it. But the toilet? Hate it with a passion! Especially now with a peeing little boy. Ugh.
6.What is your favorite form of exercise? Buahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha! Oh, wait, I'm supposed to answer serious. Walking.
7. What is your favorite day/day of the week/month of the year? Thursday. It's always been my favorite day.
8. What is your least favorite mode of transportation? The bus. Not sure why, just hate it.
9. What is your favorite body part? On me--my hair (that's a body part right?) On men--hands.
10. What sound do you love? I love my kids laughter, makes me happy hearing it.

If...

1. If you could throw any kind of party, what kind would it be and what would it be for? I would throw a casino party with a poker table, a craps table, a blackjack table and roulette. I think that would be so much fun if a lot of friends gathered to have some gambling fun. And who cares what it's for? It's gambling with friends!
2. If you could paint a scenery of anything you've seen before, what would you paint? Easy one--sunset at the beach. Those moments, whomever I was with or where ever I was at were always so beautiful to me.
3. If you could stay a certain age forever, what age would it be? Oooh, that's a tough one. I'd say 25, but I honestly hated 25, but I assumed if I was 25 forever, I could make it better.
4. If you knew the world was going to end in 2012, what would you do differently? I would travel to every loved one's house, give them an enormous hug and just tell them that I loved them. What else could I do?
5. If you could choose anyone, who would you choose as your mentor? Oh geez, I have no idea here. No idea, what so ever!
6. If you could witness any event, past, present or future, which would it be? I want to be there when my daughter's daughter is 7 years old and that little girl is driving her mother crazy because she won't listen, or shut up and she talks back with the attitude of a 15 year old simply because she can. I want to see that so I can look at my daughter and say, "Now you know." and laugh... oh how I want to laugh!
7. If you could learn to do anything, what would it be? Play the guitar.
8. If you were immortal for one day, what would you do? Skydiving and scuba diving with sharks.
9. If you had to work on only one project for one year, what would it be? I'd write a book. I'm assuming of course I wouldn't be bothered that whole year so I actually could write that book.
10. If you could change your first name, what would you change it to? Samantha. Don't know why, just always wanted that name (probably because of Who's the Boss and my early-teen obsession with Alyssa Milano)
11. If you could meet anyone living or dead, who would you meet? My grandfather. I know I already met him but I would love to spend one more day with him.
12. If you won the lottery, what would be the first thing you'd do? Cry. I would cry, cry and cry some more. Then I'd probably go out to dinner.
13. If you were reincarnated into an animal/drink/ice cream flavor which would it be? Ok, this question made me laugh. Ice cream flavor, seriously? No, wait... I'd want to be mint chocolate chip. Because I heard Robert Pattinson likes mint chocolate chip and it would be amazing to be in Robert Pattinson's mouth.
14. If you could know the answer to any questions--except "What is the meaning of life?"--what would it be? Yes. The answer is yes.
15. If you could choose to be any fictional character, who would it be? Hermione Granger. She's cute, she's brilliant and she gets to kiss Ron Weasley.

Personal

1. What celebrity would you be mistaken for? Can I say who I'd wish I'd be mistaken for? I'd be flattered completely if I were mistaken for Sara Ramirez from Grey's Anatomy. I think we look similar but I happen to think she is WAY more beautiful then me. What do you think? Can we pass as at least cousins?

My best friend is going to not like this since Sara is her girl crush. My girl crush is Anne Hathaway which looks nothing like my best friend so maybe she has a girl crush on Sara because she looks like me? Hmm.... something we should discuss maybe?

2.What was one of best parties you've ever been to? There were two that immediately come to mind. First was a New Year's Eve party where--surprise!--was a gambling party. Second was a bbq party, I met a few people that I'm still friends with to this day and it was quite possibly the most fun I'd ever had (at a party that is). Of course it had bad moments but I attribute that to my extreme intoxication.
3. What was the last TV show, movie or book that made you tear up? Friends--the prom video episode where Ross got all dressed up to take Rachel to the prom then her date showed up, blah blah blah. I cried because it was so sweet and she finally kissed him!
4. What's the hardest thing you've ever done? Admiting I was wrong.
5. What was the last experience that made you a stronger person? Being told my child is not good enough. I had to toughen my self up and be stronger about anyone who criticizes (good or bad) my kids.
6. What did you do growing up that got you into trouble? Marcy. I met Marcy. That created a lifetime of trouble. And laughs. So worth it!
7. When was the last time you had an amazing meal? Yesterday at Olive Garden. Seriously, I am ecstatic about their soup and salad. Love it, love it, love it!
8. What is the best/worst gift you've ever given/received? My husband bought me diamond earrings. For any other reason it would be a good gift, but it was a "I'm sorry I pissed you off again" gift. I made him return them.
9. What do you miss most about being a kid? No house or car payments, no budgets, not having to worry about broken appliances, the only child's well-being I was concerned with was my own.
10. What is your first memory about being really excited? I was 5 (I think). Christmas morning and I thought Santa was still in the house. (cute story, I'll have to share it some day!)
11. What was the first thing you bought with your own money. Boots baby! Dr. Marten boots!
12. When was the last time you were nervous? Today. Right now. I'm going out tonight and I always get nervous before I go out and be social!
13. What is something you learned last week? See answer to #5 above
14. What story does your family always well about you? It's not so much a story as something I said one time--one time that happened to be on video tape. We were in Arizona in July and it was so freakin' hot. My dad had the video camera on me, I was eating something frozen, and he said "It's hot isn't it?" and I either wanted to say "very hot" or "firey hot" but I actually said "Ver-iery hot." in a weird southern accent. Everyone still jokes about that to this day. So not funny is it? Yea, I didn't think so. They need to shut up about it.
15. What age did you become an adult? 23. My parents moved away and I was stuck having to take care of myself with no safety net.

Random questions

1. Is a picture worth a thousand words? Elaborate.

I'm sorry if that offends anyone. I actually respect Hilary Clinton. But come on... the question was begging for this!!

2. Where's Waldo? Waldo is now an extreme agoraphobe because whenever he did leave his house no one ever found him. So where's waldo now? Probably in his house, in front of his computer playing World of Warcraft with the other agoraphobes teabagging your corpe and waiting for you to rez at your body again so he can gank you one more time just so he can feel superior.
3. The best part of waking up is? Um... er.... uh.... wha.... um.... geez.... I. Don't. Know. Sleeping and dreaming is so much better then anything I can wake up to.
4. How now brown cow? Stop yanking on my utters you lactose obsessed asshole!
5. Whasssssuuuupppppp? You say that to me again and I'm going to slap into next Tuesday. And by the way, didn't anyone tell you it's rude to stick your tongue out? It's disgusting and no one want to see that shit.
