Sunday Stealing: The ABC’s of Meme
A- Advocate for: Peace. Or cookies. I think the world would be better off with a large helping of both.
B- Best Feature: My mind. (also, boobies. I mention them a lot because they just don’t get enough attention. heh)
C- Could do without: All this rain. I love rain but this is more than enough for me.
D- Dreams and desires: I haz dem and I’m not sharing. Oh okay. Since you asked – I dream of leaving my dumbass job in the financial services field and having my own practice as a coach and mentor to others who truly want to make profound changes in their lives and are ready to do the work. Also, I want to be tall and thin and be the secret object of one David Cook’s lustful fantasies.
E- Essential items: Laptop, coffee, journal
F- Favorite pasttime: Farting around – I have perfected it over many years
G- Good at: see above. Also, writing. (Believe it or not, I can form full sentences. Or can I?)
H- Have never tried: Smoking – never will. Bleah.
I- If I had a million dollars: I’d pay off all debts, set my three aunts up for life and go on a six month tour of Italy.
J- Junkie for: Are you familiar with the name David Cook? I thought so.
K- Kindred spirit: Gotta say, my Goddaughter of Love will always hold that crown. But she had the amazing ability to be that for ANYONE she encountered. She just “got” people on their own level and made them feel loved and understood. What a wonderful gift.
L- Little known fact: I cannot touch pictures of snakes in books. They give me the heebee-jeebes.
M- Memorable moment: Standing so close to (not-so-sekrit) boyfriend that I could touch him (but realizing that would be inappropriate not to mention all kinds of cougary).
N- Never again will I: have four cats, two guinea pigs and a dog. Good lord, that was a total menagerie.
O- Occasional indulgence: Hmmm, occasional? Having a whole Cin-a-bon. I have one maybe once a year and try not to feel guilty doing so.
P- Profession: Financial services operations – in various forms.
Q- Quote: “Take a minute just to breathe and think of everything you wanted and what you got instead.”
R- Reason to smile: Birthday cake!
S- Sorry about: being a slug my whole life all weekend
T- Things you are worrying about right now: Cashflow issues. Where did all these bills come from?
U- Uninterested in: Stupid shit about Hollywood people. Jon, Kate, Anna Nicole … blah blah fucking blah.
V- Very scared of: Gaining back all my weight from surgery twelve years ago. Will. not. happen.
W- Worst habits: Eating from boredom. And not exercising at all.
Y- Yummiest dessert: Bread pudding with vanilla ice cream
X- X marks my ideal vacation spot: A beachy place with lots of quiet, ocean, books and adult beverages.
Z- Zodiac sign: Libra (but the very last degree of it before it turns Scorpio) so while I have a big dose of being all about the balance, I am a very “behind-the-scenes” kind of chick (Scorpio influence).
** Please to forgive current affectation of “Also, (whatever).” – Over at Balloon Juice it’s used to make fun of Sarah Palin’s odd speechifying. I’ve noticed that it has made its way here as well and wanted to let you all in on the joke lest you think I suck at writing. heh
You had have four cats, two guinea pigs and a dog? Wow. I couldn’t do a goldfish! :)
I love so many of your answers! Especially your response re: Cookie. I like that you respect him. A couple years ago, my best friend (a man) was totally and aggressively hit on by a female client. At first I thought it was funny, but he was sincerely and miserably uncomfortable and so it wasn’t funny at all. It’s good to remember — as you did — that men are people, too. Just as it would be wrong for a male fan to fondle Kelly Clarkson, so it would be wrong for you to sidle up to Cookie and …. (I wouldn’t presume to finish that sentence for you!)
I don’t get the smoking thing either.
Have a great Sunday
