This is the A-Z meme I’ve seen floating around several places lately. I know I did a version of this once but oh well. As always, blank version to C&P after the jump.
Accent: Western PA by way of north Florida. I need a Henry Higgins analysis
Breakfast or no breakfast: I like breakfast well enough. In fact, I had breakfast for lunch yesterday (mmm grits). Thing is, I don’t like a cold breakfast but I’m too lazy to make a hot breakfast first thing in the morning. I did have a “protein bar” this morning. I also don’t like sugar in the morning, which really limits one’s choices of cereal. The chocolate Special K is good and I also like Honey Bunches of Oats. I’m willing to go as sugary as Corn Pops or some sugar (maybe a tablespoon, if that) on a Weetabix but that’s it. Fave breakfast: Denver omelet and cubed potatoes with skim milk.
Chore I don’t care for: Last time I said washing dishes. This time I’ll say loading wet laundry from the washer to the dryer. I usually end up damaging a fingernail.
Dog or Cat: I like dogs and cats. I’m about a 51% dog person though.
Essential Electronics: A computer of course
Favorite Cologne: Chanel #5. I wear it almost exclusively although I branched out some this week with Fifth Avenue and Beautiful
Gold or Silver: It depends on mood. Today, gold.
Handbag I carry most often: Most often, my stuff is in a Lands End backpack diaper bag. Last time I used a purse… that may have been gals & gays night. Ack!
Insomnia: Hawk has been working on D&D characters until after 1 a.m. for over a week. I’m telling him in person and here that if he plans to do this again tonight, he can take it to the kitchen table. And if he needs to do it in a bed, he can pull out the sofa bed downstairs. And I think he wonders why the only action he’s getting in bed involves a D20.
Job Title: Childwrangler
Kids: Are having morning snack. We had a vitamin each, Zoe’s having Corn Pops and Holden’s having fruities (little gummy fruit juice things) and both are having milk. The TV is off. I think I’m in Bizarroworld.
Living Arrangements: Um, well let’s see. Frankly it’s Minerva’s house and her board of administrators consists of Z&H.
Most Admirable Trait: Of mine? Erm. Well, some people admire honesty and I can be honest beyond what the situation calls for. It’s a Sagittarius thing.
Naughtiest Childhood Behavior: Hrm. I think I was a good kid. I did go riding dirtbikes with my boyfriend after I was warned not to. We had helmets and he was a very cautious driver. But see above about the honesty. I guess I shouldn’t have owned up about it.
Overnight hospital stays: Other than being born my own self, Zoe’s birth, observation with the gall bladder (the gall bladder removal, I was out the same day) and Holden’s birth.
Phobias: Snakes, clowns with white make-up, snakes and snakes. BTW: STOP sharing that Bossy story about the snake! Yikes Louise, if I have to see those pics one more time… and I KNOW you’re all doing it just for me. Eep! Oh! And S says he’s going to Photoshop this pic he always sends me of a guy with a snake going through his nose & mouth (I know not which direction it’s headed, out the mouth or out the nose) so that the guy has white clown make-up. And no, that is not an invitation to send me that pic, S, so I can see which way the thing is going.
Quote: One of today’s quotes of the day struck me: “People ask for criticism, but they only want praise.” (Somerset Maughm)
Reason to smile: “Mommy I farted. You have to smell my butt.”
Siblings: Ack. Please. I have nothing to say on this topic.
Time I wake up: Usually between 8 & 10.
Unusual Talent or Skill: I can pick stuff up with my toes. It’s not that unusual but it’s about it.
Vegetable I Refuse to Eat: Hrm. Well I don’t care for cauliflower but I’ll eat it. I think if you just close yourself off to certain foods on principle, you’re not trying new things. I’ve never had beets though. I don’t know if I’d eat them. I might, depending on the prep. I wouldn’t outright refuse just because it’s a beet.
Worst Habit: Booger-hiding. I’ve never admitted to that publicly. It’s the sacrifice I make for your entertainment.
X-rays: I think the last one was my shoulder. I’ve also had an ankle done. Never broken a bone though *knock*
Yummy Stuff: Ya know, I’m kind of out of yummies here. I’m low on flour and butter so I haven’t made any cupcakes since 4th of July. Our fridge is kind of empty b/c we’d cleared stuff out to make room for party food. We do have some Oreos and Golden Oreos. I’ve had one of each. Oh and Wynne told me the tattoo thing is on for next weekend and I can bring some nummies. Now I get to pick what to make…
Zoo Animal I Like Most: Zoo pics. Of course, I like penguins. I like the polar bears too but I always wonder if they realize that something’s just not right with the temperature where they are. That all the things they have in their nature to do, like burying under the snow, fishing, etc. aren’t available to them. Hrm. I also like any apes. I could sit and watch apes for an hour, especially orangutans.

Booger-hiding. Between that and my farting at inopportune times, we are quite the party guests.

[...] I did a meme! And no, the armpit didn’t freeze over! Since I’m inherently lazy and yet feel like doing something before I haul my lazy ass out the door for a walk with the kids before it becomes a sauna outside, I’m doing this meme that caught my eye at Eden’s [...]
