I have a strong desire to write today, but haven't been able to get myself going. I'm going to start with a simple meme I found and see if I can go from there.
The Meme:
1. What was your biggest challenge this past week? I've had a few this week. I started a new eating lifestyle (not a diet, but making a change to eat healthier for life). I started going to a gym. While both of those things would generally seem challenging, I was excited to get started, so I wouldn't say it was my biggest challenge.
My biggest emotional challenge was having to put my (step)son, Drew, back on a plane to go home to Florida to his Mom. He'd been with us 5-6 weeks and while that time had a few of it's own 'challenges', it was overall a wonderful time. As much as it was difficult, I'm excited for him because he went home with a plan to get started on his future. He has an appointment with a Navy Recruiter today. :)
2. What was your biggest accomplishment this past week? Starting at the gym and changing the ways I eat! I've needed to accomplish this for several months as I've had weight slowly creeping back on. My husband is my partner in this endeavor and I hope that together we can meet our individual and mutual goals.
3. What was the most exciting thing that happened in your life this past week? Exciting .... hmmm, probably my riding lesson that I had on Monday. I haven't had a lesson in a couple months and the last one I had didn't go so well. The one I had on Monday was awesome! I could really feel Bailee responding to my more specific, instructor guided queues. She did great and I think I did pretty wonderful too. :)
4. What one thing made you the happiest this past week? Sean, my husband. :) He does little things daily to make my laugh and smile. There's plenty of little things that drive me crazy too. ;) ..but more importantly are the things he does that he doesn't really think about, that mean so much. Some examples: Since moving to MA and the weather turning cold, he gets up every morning when the alarm goes off (EVEN when he doesn't have to be up yet!) and goes outside and starts my car while I'm in the shower. Weekly he downloads the shows that I like to watch (Greys Anatomy, Helix, Game of Thrones, Downton Abbey, etc) and when I get home from work sits down and watches at least one with me before playing any video games, etc so we can spend time together. He calls / messages me every day at work to see how my day is going. He gives me a hug and kiss every day before we leave for work and when we get home. ..and there's so much more. 5 years in and he always try to pay attention to those little things. He's simply .. amazing.
Speaking of Sean, he just messaged that he's on his lunch. I'm off to give him a ring.

Friday Five
I had a total AH-HA moment! .. I've figured out how to 'categorize' my posts! Except on blogger.com it's called "Labels". WOO! .. Go me!
Moving on, this is today's Meme. Right now this will probably be a lot of my writing, I'm using the Meme's to get back into the habit.
1. How many hours of sleep do you like to get in a night? On average 8-10 hours. Sean has pretty bad sleep apnea (that he's in the process of being treated for) and so he generally sleeps around 10 hours a night. I like going to bed for some snuggle time with him, so generally during the week we're in bed by about 8:30pm and up at 6am.
2. How many hours of sleep can you survive on indefinitely? Indefinitely? Isn't the definition of this something similar to 'forever'? If that's the case: 0. :) If the question is how many hours of sleep do I need at minimum to function normally, about 6-8. If we're talking about the need to just survive a day, probably 3-4hrs. However, I'm *REALLY* grumpy when I haven't had sleep.
3. Do you enjoy napping? A year ago my answer probably would've been NO. Recently I'm finding that occasionally I really do like a good nap. Good gracious that makes me feel old.
4. The average amount of time it takes a person to fall asleep is seven minutes--do you tend to need more or less time than that? The majority of the time, more than that, much more. Not only does it take me forever to fall asleep, but I usually wake up several times during the night. If I'm absolutely exhausted I've been known to zonk out pretty fast.
5. If you were offered a pill that would enable you to sleep only two hours out of every twenty-four and remain fully functional, but you could never sleep more than that, would you take it? My first reaction was to say no. I like my sleep and I like my time cuddling with my husband. However, if all the people I cared about / interacted with had the same pill too, then I could totally see doing that! I'd be able to get SO much more done.

Thursday Thirteen - I need to write more
I desperately need to find my motivation to write more. I also have many things that I *need* to write about, but haven't yet. My Thursday 13 is devoted to those things I need, want, should write about. Perhaps if I look back on this list I'll actually write about some of them!
1) My trip to Ireland
2) My wedding day! .. I'm going to forget these details! It's already been more than 2 years!
3) My father-in-law, he was very special to me and passed more than a year ago.
4) My family - they're SO important to me.
5) My infertility journey - we've been trying to have a baby for approximately 2 years.
6) My horse - she's always fun to write about
7) My husband - I already tend to refer to him quite often, but it doesn't hurt to mention it. :) He's pretty amazing after all.
8) My trip to Belgium. This should've been #2, duh! ..It was at the same time!
9) My work - I mentioned this a couple posts ago. My work is quite amusing and interesting at times.
10) Other Memes. They get my mind-juices flowing.
11) My emotional struggles. I struggle with anxiety and depression. It's going to pop-up here sometimes. Although for the most part I prefer to steer away from negative posts.
12) The sweet boy I gave birth to. My son, who has another Mom and Dad. :) He was adopted when he was born in 2000, but I still hear from his family (and HIM recently!!!) a couple times of a year.
13) Uhm...... Really? I ran out of ideas at number 13... so... EVERYTHING ELSE! .. goes in this category. :D

Manic Monday - Meme and truth
The title is actually the name of a daily meme, but the title also fits with the way this day has been.
My day started rough... I mean... rooooooooough... I woke up at about 6:30am with the worst stomach cramps and case of the #2's you can imagine. Graphic, fairly, but guess what, its my blog. :D Over and hour of running to and from the bathroom and my stomach finally settled down. Note to self: DO NOT have a large cup of coffee before bed. It's really the only thing I can rack it up to.
After my stomach settled and Sean got back from not being selected for Jury Duty (yay!), we got several errands done. I got some paystubs from my employer that I need in order to be seen at a free clinic here for blood work. We went to Pensacola College to start all the application paperwork for me and finish up some work for Sean. We went to David's Bridal to pick up my Maid of Honor dress for my friends wedding. Last but not least we checked out a stable in Milton as a possibility for Bailee. They currently have no stalls available so it isn't an option at the moment.
Sean got a call for an interview at a great company which I'm thrilled about. I didn't hear back about my interview that I had on Friday and as the day on I've gotten more and more down. SO.. when I saw this meme I figured it would be a good one for me to possibly get me out of this mopey mood.
Name 5 of the simple pleasures in your life: Hmm.. simple pleasures. I don't consider things like Sean, Bailee, letters from my son, and my family to be simple pleasures - but those are four big gynormous pleasures in my life.
Simple pleasures I partake in: Swimming in a cool pool. Walking in the sand next to the ocean. Going on a long horseback ride. Reading a good book in a quiet room. Doing some of my crafty things I enjoy like cross-stitching or weaving.
What do you like to do on a rainy day? Snuggle deep into the covers with my honey and hide. We play silly games with each other when we go to sleep at night and sometimes when we wake up in the morning. Tickling, raptor-toe (inside thing), wrestling, touched-you-last... just pure silliness really. One of the many things I love and adore about Sean is that we play and can be silly together.
I deserve a _good job__. (this was a fill in the blank question) Really. Truely. Honestly. I do. I'm a hard worker and a good worker. I've interviewed SO much in this tiny economy barren town and I've yet to have something reasonable in the slighest way come through. I'm SO frustrated. I mean...I *rock* these interviews. They tell me they like me, they tell me I'm in their top choices, and when they call back and say, "no thank you", I ask what could I have done better the answer is always the same. "You did great and you're well qualified, there are just many good applicants out there right now and we decided to go with someone else. We'll keep you in mind though in the future". Ok fine, but now, when's it my turn?

Now I'm more awake so what the hell, I'm going to do a Meme.
Actually, I saw this on a friends blog and it totally cracked me up, so now I'm doing it.
1. You can press a button that will make any one person explode. Who would you blow up?
I don't really do the people exploding thing. Quite frankly. It's messy. However, now that I think about it, how about I do the next person who wants to blow up a bunch of innocent men, women and children in some foreign country. I mean REALLY? I know you think you're going to heaven and get something like 5000 virgins, but are you REALLY that insane? Yea. I guess you are. Oh.. before I push the button I'm shipping him to the middle of the desert first where it's empty for miles, that way he or she only hurts bugs. I hate bugs.
2. You can flip a switch that will wipe any band or musical artist out of existence. Which one will it be?
Oooo... Beastie Boys. HAHAHA!.. I can't stand them. It's my brother's fault I swear.
3. Who would you really like to just punch in the face?
Ok, that made me laugh out loud. For real. So, I get to punch them in the face and they can't do anything about it? I'd love to say no one, that I'm a lover not a fighter, but..... my ex ... the ex ex. Not the ex-husband, but the nasty one that got a few hits off himself.
4. What is your favorite cheese? Muenster. Definitely muenster right now.
5. You can only have one kind of sandwich. Every sandwich ingredient known to humankind is at your immediate disposal. What kind will you make? OMG! .. uhm. It's gotta be a reuben. I love them. One from that cool irish pub in Pensacola.
6. You have the opportunity to sleep with the movie celebrity of your choice. We are talking no-strings-attached sex and it can only happen once. Who is the lucky celebrity of your choice?
I can honestly say no one. I'm insanely happy in my relationship and even if it was someone famous I wouldn't do anything to hurt my current happy bliss.
7. You have the opportunity to sleep with the music-celebrity of your choice. Who do you pick?
Marilyn Manson! .. hahaha! J/K! Gotcha! ... See above answer. Now here's the scary part, there was a time several years ago that I was seriously obsessed with MM and totally would've done him. Ew.
8. Now that you’ve slept with two different people in a row, you seem to be having an excellent day because you just came across a hundred-dollar bill on the sidewalk. Holy shit, a hundred bucks! How are you gonna spend it?
SWEET! A hundred bucks. New clothes. I seriously need some new cute stuff.
9. You just got a free plane ticket to anywhere. You have to depart right now. Where are you gonna go?
Am I allowed to have time off too? I'd go see my nephew. Hands down. No hesitation.
10. Upon arrival to the aforementioned location, you get off the plane and discover another hundred-dollar bill. Shit! Now that you are in the new location, what are you gonna do?
SWEET!!!!! Take my Mom, sister, husband, and nephew out to dinner.
11. An angel appears out of Heaven and offers you a lifetime supply of the alcoholic beverage of your choice. It is…?
Uh.. really? Well crap, if I have to choose. Citrus Vodka.
12. Rufus appears out of nowhere with a time-traveling phone booth. You can go anytime in the PAST. What time are you traveling to and what are you going to do when you get there?
Rufus? The only Rufus I know is a dog. Rufus rocks. Let's go back to where it's Medieval. I want to be a princess. A rebelious one of course, no sitting with the womanfolk and doing embroidery for me. I want to watch battles, listen in on the men's conversations, wander the countryside, ride the beautiful horses, take it all in. :)
13. You discover a beautiful island upon which you may build your own society. You make the rules. What is the first rule you put into place?
Hmmmm.. I'm really not sure. I'd guess I'd put in place no violence rules first and do my best to try and keep it that way.
14. You have been given the opportunity to create the half-hour TV show of your own design. What is it called and what’s the premise?
Some sort of show about teaching men and women how to treat each other better in relationships ... how to be more romantic ... how to listen better. Not a talk show. More like ... a reality / help show. *shrug*
15.What is your favorite curse word?
Fuck. I have no idea why. Maybe because it's considered the most taboo.. lol.
16.One night you wake up because you heard a noise. You turn on the light to find that you are surrounded by MUMMIES. The mummies aren’t really doing anything, they’re just standing around your bed. What do you do?
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!! *snort* hehehehe. *cough* hahaha. *wheeze* What a ridiculous question. I'd play checkers with them of course.
17. Your house is on fire, holy shit! You have just enough time to run in there and grab ONE inanimate object. Don’t worry, your loved ones and pets have already made it out safely. So what’s the item?
One item? Laptop. Pictures, letters, stories I've written. It will have the most personal information I can keep.
18. The Angel of Death has descended upon you. Fortunately, the Angel of Death is pretty cool and in a good mood, and it offers you a half-hour to do whatever you want before you bite it. Whatcha gonna do in that half-hour?
Spend time with my loved ones.
19. You accidentally eat some radioactive vegetables. They were good, and what’s even cooler is that they endow you with the super-power of your choice! What’s it gonna be?
I want to fly!
20. You can re-live any point of time in your life. The time-span can only be a half-hour, though. What half-hour of your past would you like to experience again?
Oooh. Ooooh crappin' damn. Sigh. Now you have to go and get me all serious. One of the half hours that I had when I was holding Carter (my son who is now adopted by a wonderful family). I can't remember those moments hardly at all now.
21.You can erase any horrible experience from your past. What will it be?
One of the many that were with the ex ex.
22. You got kicked out of the country for being a time-traveling heathen who sleeps with celebrities and has super-powers. But check out this cool shit… you can move to anywhere else in the world! Bitchin’! What country are you going to live in now?
This is probably the weirdest and funniest meme I've ever completed. ROFL. Ireland. WOOT!
23. This question still counts, even for those of you who are under age. Check it out. You have been eternally banned from every single bar in the world except for ONE. Which one is it gonna be?
Oh I have no clue. There's no bar that I frequent or love.
24. Hopefully you didn’t mention this in the super-powers question…. If you did, then we’ll just expand on that. Check it out… Suddenly, you have gained the ability to FLOAT!!! Whose house are you going to float to first, and be like “Dude, check it out…I can FLOAT!”?
ROFLMAO! Dude.. check it out.. I can float! .. I am SO going to float to my sister's house and be like, "DUDE! I can float!".
25. The constant absorption of magical moonbeams mixed with the radioactive vegetables you consumed earlier has given you the ability to resurrect the dead famous-person of your choice. So which celebrity will you bring back to life?
Heath Ledger. He was a brillant actor and had really just hit his prime.
26. The Celestial Gates of Beyond have opened, much to your surprise because you didn’t think such a thing existed. Death appears. As it turns out, Death is actually a pretty cool entity, and happens to be in a fantastic mood. Death offers to return the friend/family-member/person, etc. of your choice to the living world. Who will you bring back?
My Grandma. I totally didn't get to spend time with my grandparents, they died early, and she was a rockin' seamstress! I bet she could make me some bomb-digity garb!
27. What’s your theme song?
I don't have one... but NOW .. I'm going to get one. About FLOATING! **off to find a song about floating**
1. You can press a button that will make any one person explode. Who would you blow up?
I don't really do the people exploding thing. Quite frankly. It's messy. However, now that I think about it, how about I do the next person who wants to blow up a bunch of innocent men, women and children in some foreign country. I mean REALLY? I know you think you're going to heaven and get something like 5000 virgins, but are you REALLY that insane? Yea. I guess you are. Oh.. before I push the button I'm shipping him to the middle of the desert first where it's empty for miles, that way he or she only hurts bugs. I hate bugs.
2. You can flip a switch that will wipe any band or musical artist out of existence. Which one will it be?
Oooo... Beastie Boys. HAHAHA!.. I can't stand them. It's my brother's fault I swear.
3. Who would you really like to just punch in the face?
Ok, that made me laugh out loud. For real. So, I get to punch them in the face and they can't do anything about it? I'd love to say no one, that I'm a lover not a fighter, but..... my ex ... the ex ex. Not the ex-husband, but the nasty one that got a few hits off himself.
4. What is your favorite cheese? Muenster. Definitely muenster right now.
5. You can only have one kind of sandwich. Every sandwich ingredient known to humankind is at your immediate disposal. What kind will you make? OMG! .. uhm. It's gotta be a reuben. I love them. One from that cool irish pub in Pensacola.
6. You have the opportunity to sleep with the movie celebrity of your choice. We are talking no-strings-attached sex and it can only happen once. Who is the lucky celebrity of your choice?
I can honestly say no one. I'm insanely happy in my relationship and even if it was someone famous I wouldn't do anything to hurt my current happy bliss.
7. You have the opportunity to sleep with the music-celebrity of your choice. Who do you pick?
Marilyn Manson! .. hahaha! J/K! Gotcha! ... See above answer. Now here's the scary part, there was a time several years ago that I was seriously obsessed with MM and totally would've done him. Ew.
8. Now that you’ve slept with two different people in a row, you seem to be having an excellent day because you just came across a hundred-dollar bill on the sidewalk. Holy shit, a hundred bucks! How are you gonna spend it?
SWEET! A hundred bucks. New clothes. I seriously need some new cute stuff.
9. You just got a free plane ticket to anywhere. You have to depart right now. Where are you gonna go?
Am I allowed to have time off too? I'd go see my nephew. Hands down. No hesitation.
10. Upon arrival to the aforementioned location, you get off the plane and discover another hundred-dollar bill. Shit! Now that you are in the new location, what are you gonna do?
SWEET!!!!! Take my Mom, sister, husband, and nephew out to dinner.
11. An angel appears out of Heaven and offers you a lifetime supply of the alcoholic beverage of your choice. It is…?
Uh.. really? Well crap, if I have to choose. Citrus Vodka.
12. Rufus appears out of nowhere with a time-traveling phone booth. You can go anytime in the PAST. What time are you traveling to and what are you going to do when you get there?
Rufus? The only Rufus I know is a dog. Rufus rocks. Let's go back to where it's Medieval. I want to be a princess. A rebelious one of course, no sitting with the womanfolk and doing embroidery for me. I want to watch battles, listen in on the men's conversations, wander the countryside, ride the beautiful horses, take it all in. :)
13. You discover a beautiful island upon which you may build your own society. You make the rules. What is the first rule you put into place?
Hmmmm.. I'm really not sure. I'd guess I'd put in place no violence rules first and do my best to try and keep it that way.
14. You have been given the opportunity to create the half-hour TV show of your own design. What is it called and what’s the premise?
Some sort of show about teaching men and women how to treat each other better in relationships ... how to be more romantic ... how to listen better. Not a talk show. More like ... a reality / help show. *shrug*
15.What is your favorite curse word?
Fuck. I have no idea why. Maybe because it's considered the most taboo.. lol.
16.One night you wake up because you heard a noise. You turn on the light to find that you are surrounded by MUMMIES. The mummies aren’t really doing anything, they’re just standing around your bed. What do you do?
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!! *snort* hehehehe. *cough* hahaha. *wheeze* What a ridiculous question. I'd play checkers with them of course.
17. Your house is on fire, holy shit! You have just enough time to run in there and grab ONE inanimate object. Don’t worry, your loved ones and pets have already made it out safely. So what’s the item?
One item? Laptop. Pictures, letters, stories I've written. It will have the most personal information I can keep.
18. The Angel of Death has descended upon you. Fortunately, the Angel of Death is pretty cool and in a good mood, and it offers you a half-hour to do whatever you want before you bite it. Whatcha gonna do in that half-hour?
Spend time with my loved ones.
19. You accidentally eat some radioactive vegetables. They were good, and what’s even cooler is that they endow you with the super-power of your choice! What’s it gonna be?
I want to fly!
20. You can re-live any point of time in your life. The time-span can only be a half-hour, though. What half-hour of your past would you like to experience again?
Oooh. Ooooh crappin' damn. Sigh. Now you have to go and get me all serious. One of the half hours that I had when I was holding Carter (my son who is now adopted by a wonderful family). I can't remember those moments hardly at all now.
21.You can erase any horrible experience from your past. What will it be?
One of the many that were with the ex ex.
22. You got kicked out of the country for being a time-traveling heathen who sleeps with celebrities and has super-powers. But check out this cool shit… you can move to anywhere else in the world! Bitchin’! What country are you going to live in now?
This is probably the weirdest and funniest meme I've ever completed. ROFL. Ireland. WOOT!
23. This question still counts, even for those of you who are under age. Check it out. You have been eternally banned from every single bar in the world except for ONE. Which one is it gonna be?
Oh I have no clue. There's no bar that I frequent or love.
24. Hopefully you didn’t mention this in the super-powers question…. If you did, then we’ll just expand on that. Check it out… Suddenly, you have gained the ability to FLOAT!!! Whose house are you going to float to first, and be like “Dude, check it out…I can FLOAT!”?
ROFLMAO! Dude.. check it out.. I can float! .. I am SO going to float to my sister's house and be like, "DUDE! I can float!".
25. The constant absorption of magical moonbeams mixed with the radioactive vegetables you consumed earlier has given you the ability to resurrect the dead famous-person of your choice. So which celebrity will you bring back to life?
Heath Ledger. He was a brillant actor and had really just hit his prime.
26. The Celestial Gates of Beyond have opened, much to your surprise because you didn’t think such a thing existed. Death appears. As it turns out, Death is actually a pretty cool entity, and happens to be in a fantastic mood. Death offers to return the friend/family-member/person, etc. of your choice to the living world. Who will you bring back?
My Grandma. I totally didn't get to spend time with my grandparents, they died early, and she was a rockin' seamstress! I bet she could make me some bomb-digity garb!
27. What’s your theme song?
I don't have one... but NOW .. I'm going to get one. About FLOATING! **off to find a song about floating**

Multiple Daily Meme's!?!?! Could it be true?!?!
I found a website that has multiple daily meme's listed that you can go to and participate in. MUAHAHAHAHAHAAAAA!!!! Now on the days that my standard ones just aren't my cup of tea, I can find others. Or.. Ooo Ooo!! .. I can do multiple meme's in one day! Oh the possibilities!
Ok. Anyway. If you feel like getting involved in a billion types of meme's this is the link. http://thedailymeme.com/
The first meme I found for Monday is, "Give Me Five", each week a question or comment is made that you then list five things for. So.. this was the one for this week, very appropriate for Thanksgiving week of course:
Give Me Five reasons you can be thankful this year:
1) I'm thankful that my family is healthy and all doing relatively well.
2) I'm thankful that I found Sean, he really is one of the best things that has ever happened to me.
3) I'm thankful that I was able to find a new job quickly.
4) I'm thankful for Suzie (soon to be renamed), the sweet appaloosa mare that is now in my life.
5) I'm thankful for my family and friends who love and support me.
Another Monday Meme I found is called Question of the Week, or QOTW. This was the question they posed:
Would you rather work outside with your hands, or inside at a desk job?
I would most definitely prefer to work outside with my hands. All of my life I've pretty much done desk jobs, however, my dream job would be making a living working with horses. Horses are hobby and it brings me minor income at times, but oh if it could be a profession....... life would be grand.

Meme for Monday and other stuff
Why is the Manic Monday Meme always so short? I think that it's supposed to inspire longer and more creative writing, but I've got to say, after going through a mind numbing, exhausting, not wanting to be there because it's Monday workday -- the furthest thing from my mind is writing my intellectual <--(I'm so spelling that wrong) thoughts on something. (just saying...)
Even so, here we go:
Do you read an actual print newspaper? If so, how often? Nope.
What is your main source of news? I get CNN updates in my work email, I see the headlines on the front page of Yahoo, and once in awhile I watch a portion of the evening news on TV.
Do you believe that it's possible for the media to be unbiased? No. I think it's possible that a person can write an article from an unbiased standpoint. However, verbally, visually, and personally on the inside I don't believe a person reporting on the news is going to be unbiased.
------------------------------
On another note. Life seems to be going pretty darned good. Random lists of updates.
-Dave and I are offically divorced.
-Sean and I are living together and talking about our futures a lot. I'm happy. I'm excited for him to come home every day. I can't get enough time with him. He expresses the same feelings constantly and I love it. We're both aware that the giddy twitterpatted stage doesn't last forever ..... but the happiness and love ... I don't feel like that will overall ever fade. We're seriously like two teenagers a lot of the time and I can't even begin to say how much fun it is to have someone that has a goofy silly personality so insanely similar to mine. I think he might even be weirder than me sometimes. I love it.
-I'm currently working with a new horse named Suzie. Funny, I've said I don't like appaloosa's and I don't prefer mares. She's both. AND .. she's amazing. Sean loves her and treats her like a pet dog. It's adorable. He gave her a treat a couple days ago and told her to "sit", like he was talking to a dog. I crap you not. "Sit!". It's hysterical. I love it. I love him. I love them. :) She's for sale and I so wish we could purchase her. She's 3 yrs old and has a lot of potential.
-I was riding a horse named Red for about a week. She also was a mare. (weird). Except she was a thoroughbred. WOOT! She's definitely for an experienced rider, but she was oh so sweet. Unforunately she was not treated well for several months and is now on stall rest for several months. Long story short, she was given away to someone else today and I couldn't be happier. Her current owner was not physically abusing her, but by not taking care of her was inflicting abuse.
-Today I let my Mom know that Sean and I were living together. Ugh. Ouch. I hate hurting her and making her sad ... and it did. However, I hate lying to her even more. She'll adjust and she'll be okay, we just have very strong different view points on this matter. I love her dearly and she's one of my best friends; we'll work through this too.
Oooooooooooooo.. Sean just texted me he's going to make Top Ramen when he gets home from work and he's not sharing. I've got a wicked craving now. I'm so making my own. Muahaha.

Sunday Stealing - One of my favorite meme's.
The Sunday Stealing meme is one of my favorites because it's always changing. I haven't been posting or doing meme's quite as often, but I've got some extra time today so here we go!
Question 1: Who do you think is the hottest movie star? This is a hard one as I have a few favorites. Men: Ryan Reynolds; Hugh Jackman. Women: Nicole Kidman; Charlize Theron. Though I think they're both more attractive when they're not super bone-showing skinny.
Question 2: Apart from your house and your car, what is the most expensive thing you have ever bought? Jewelry, necklace and small topaz and white gold ring I bought myself.
Question 3: What is your most treasured memory? I have two right now. The birth of my son will always first and foremost. And honestly.. the first time I met Sean.. it was an amazing moment that I haven't experienced before.
Question 4: What is the best gift you’ve ever received as a child? Unforunately I don't have a lot of childhood memories so I can't remember many specific gifts. I do remember the Christmas when all of us kids got the original Nintendo tho.. that was awesome. :) That and the gifts my Mom made were always the best!
Question 5: What is the biggest mistake you’ve ever made? Not walking away.
Question 6: Give four words to describe yourself. Honest, Empathy, Emotional, Loving
Question 7: What was your highlight or lowlight of 2008? Uhm.. 2008?.. gods, with my memories being all kinds of messed up thats difficult for me to do. I'd say meeting Patty and all the other people at "Three Arrows Ranch", it's made a huge impact and change in my life. OH GOODNESS and how could my crazy mind forget. The birth of my nephew!!!!!!!!!!!! I got to be there and it was amazing and beautiful and wonderful in every way possible.
Question 8: What was your most embarrassing moment? The first thing that came to mind when I read this was a time I accidently pee'd myself from laughing so hard. It was at a friends house I had in Seattle during a party at her house. It might've been a b-day party. Sooooooooo embarassing. I was pretty badly teased for it.
Question 9: Tell something not generally known about yourself. Uhmmmmm.. I have a totally irrational fear of having my toes pulled on - I feel like they'll dislocate if they're even gently pulled. When I get a pedicure I have to specifically mention not to pull on my toes when they're doing the foot massage.
Question 10: If you were a comic strip/cartoon character, who would you be? Are there any cartoon characters of Betty Page? :D ... I dunno, someone dark, sexy, and mysterious!

Thursday Thunks! It's that time again! .. Meme's!
1. You walk into a store and the cashier is being held up by a robber. The robber's accomplice is dead on the floor at your feet with a shotgun laying next to him. The robber does not see you, but the cashier does - what do you do? Not to be anal, but this would depend on a few things. How stressed out is the robber? Is he / she tweaking? Calm? Hands shaking? Seem trigger happy? How close is the shotgun to me? More than likely I'd try to quietly step behind one of the shelves and get to the floor while hitting the emergency 911 button my cell phone. I don't know how to use a gun, I'm not incredibly intimidating, and I'd probably end up getting shot or getting someone else shot if I tried to take control of the situation.
2. We go to an ice cream shop for an ice cream cone. You say you are buying and I am going to stay in the car. You ask me what I want and I say "surprise me", what kind of ice cream cone am I going to get? If I don't know you at all, I'm probably going to stick to something pretty basic or simple. If we've known each other for a while and you like chocolate, something fun for funky like Rocky Road, Mudslide, or Coffee Coffee Buzz Buzz Buzz.
3. You have a dream that your co-worker, friend or whoever is hit by a garbage truck after they back into a ladder with a black cat on it. The next day you see that person standing by a ladder with a black cat on it and there is a garbage truck driving down the road.... what do you do? Scream VERY loudly so I get their attention and get them to move far far away from the ladder, truck, cat, everything.
4. What is the most money you've won on a lottery or scratch off ticket? $100
5. A neighbor kid down the street comes to your door and offers to wash all of your windows outside for $10 - do you have him do it? Sure! I'll help out and clean windows are nice.
6. Go to Google Images. Type in the name of the last movie you saw. Post the first picture that comes up.
7. Your local animal shelter calls you and says there are 3 dogs that need an immediate foster home for 3 days. If you do not accept, the dogs are put down that day. Do you take them in? In a heartbeat, yes.
8. What is the messiest room in your home? Livingroom, by far.
9. Have you ever been to a wedding that participated in a strange tradition that you had never heard of? Yes, it was the receiption at a Thai wedding. During a dance, men (or women) would pin money to the brides wedding dress and dance with her for a few moments before the next person would pin money and start dancing with her. People were pinning $5, $10, $20, $50, $100 bills. I was young and thought it was SO cool.
10. Name one sport that you just don't get. Golf. I mean, I guess I understand why some people enjoy playing it.... but those who chose to watch it..... really people? I just don't get it. It's like watching paint dry to me.
11. What was the last email that came into your inbox about? It was the Marcaster Yahoo Group email, various posting from my SCA Group in the area.
12. Have you ever purchased anything from a sex shop? Extra points if you tell us what it was.... hahahahaha! Many times. Vibes and nipple clamps are two things I've bought that I'll tell you about.
13. Go back to that Google Images link... type in the last food item that you ate. Post the 2nd picture it comes up with.
14. Got any bumper stickers on your vehicle? What are they? nope, sure don't.
15. What meme question do you wish was never asked again? Hmmm... I don't really like it when a meme asks about when the last time I cried was, and why.
2. We go to an ice cream shop for an ice cream cone. You say you are buying and I am going to stay in the car.

Wednesday's Meme appears to be broken.. so Rachology it is.
Or at least they haven't posted a new questionnaire since the beginning of July ... ah well. This is one I took from a Facebook post. It's supposed to be named Rachology as the title says, but I think that word looks really freaky weird. Maybe that's just me.
Anyway, here we go:

I like Supreme Pizzas - most everything piled on. Just no anchovies. Yeck!

Both. I write with my Left hand, but do most everything else with my Right hand.

3. Who is John Galt? I have absolutely no idea. I could google it, but I'm not. :)

6. Jelly beans or Jelly Bellies? OOooh either or please!
7. What do you think about yellow cars? Why car manufacturers actually made yellow cars? They're not for me, but I suppose manufacturers make them cause some peeps like them.

9. What kind of underwear, if any, do you wear? Bikini cut
10. Who is your daddy and what does he do? Uhm. Didn't we already go there? I don't know what he does - it all depends on what was waiting for him in the afterlife.
11. Spring - is it here yet? Sure is! I'm in Florida.
12. Does Google Streetview scare you? No. I find it kind of handy.

21. What are electrolytes and why are they good for us? You're kidding right? I'm so not trying to go there.

23. What did you dream last night? I don't remember.
24. What is the strangest thing you've eaten? Hmm.. I've had snails. That's pretty weird. They were really REALLY good, buttery, and garlicky. I also love sushi so most types of raw seafood I've tried.
25. What was the last picture that you took? Pictures from Gulf Wars. Not sure what the last one was of.
26. What is your favorite part of spring? Fresh flowers. The smell of the earth after it's a long rain. Sunny days that have a light breeze so they're not too hot.
