Okay, Bri, here's my list:
The ABC's of MeA - Accent: Well, I used to do a great Davy Jones. And now I occasionally talk with a distinct Irish accent!
B - Breakfast Item: I've actually broken down and gotten some shredded wheat, my first real cereal in five years. Too often breakfast has been a pumpkin scone from Starbucks.
C - Chore you hate: Getting gas. Getting the car washed. Anything to do with my car.
D - Dad’s Name: Charles Edward (deceased).
E - Essential everyday item: Hairspray and a scrunchy or band.
F - Flavor ice cream: Vanilla bean or peppermint.
G - Gold or Silver? Silver or white gold (or, better yet, platinum).
H - Hometown: Portland.
I - Insomnia: Lately, I'm afraid. I used to sleep like the proverbial log.
J - Job Title: Associate Executive Director.
K - Kids: Nope. But I'm in love with them, after years of wanting nothing to do with them.
L - Living arrangements: I live in a house with my sis, Charlie! (As long as I have my own bathroom, I'm good.)
M - Mom’s birthplace: St. Paul, Minnesota.
N - Number of significant others you’ve ever had: Ummmm . . . how "significant"? Very few. Or very many. Depends on your p.o.v.
O - Overnight hospital stays: When I was six I had my tonsils out. In 1985 I had a bacterial infection (sort of like e coli) and was quarantined. Then in 2004 I was in hospital for two nights for my hysterectomy.
P - Phobia: Tidal waves. Rushing water skeeves me.
Q - Queer? I know some folks on line who have definitely raised their eyebrows and grinned sardonically about me (behind my back, of course).
R - Religious Affiliation: None, really. I was raised a Methodist.
S - Siblings: Three. Charlie, sister Sue (12 years older) and a brother who's been institutionalized his entire life.
T - Time you wake up: Late. Always late.
U - Unnatural hair colors you've worn: I'm not sure what my natural color is anymore. It used to be auburn.
V - Vegetable you refuse to eat: Name one.
W - Worst habit: Procrastination. I've cut the compulsive worrying waaay back.
X - X-rays you’ve had: Does this count ultra-sounds? I've had so many! On my lungs, on my heart, on my boobs, on my twat . . . I should turn into the Amazing Colossal Mistress Marilyn!
Y - Yummy: Colin Farrell, wasted or not.
Z - Zodiac sign: Aries, the Ram. (I grew into it.)
Now you've heard my ABCs. Tell me what you think of me!
C: My husband constantly rags me about getting my oil changed, my tires rotated, etc. It matters so much to him, I don't know why he doesn't do it? If I can drive into Jiffi Lube and get it done, great. (though they don't do the tire thing and I refuse to do that myself anymore) But if I have to make an appointment and go to Ford, it's just not getting done.
N. Good answer. Was sort of unsure how to answer that myself, and decided just to stick with the husbands, lol.
Don't ever let anyone say you're not consistent, lol!
Thanks for sharing, MM.
