The following question & answers are from d (her link is on this page) to Angie...



1. If you could possess any super power, what would it be and why?
ESP. I've always wanted to know what people are thinking. So, just ask them, you might say. No, I want to know what they are thinking to the depths of their souls and you rarely get that in conversation. It's the need to protect yourself, I understand that, I do it myself.....revealing little bits of myself but not all of myself. I've always been fasinated with thoughts and emotions and the road we take to get to them. Maybe it's just the nosey neighbor in me?

2. If you could choose any famous person living or dead to spend the day with who would it be?
Princess Diana. What an extrodinary life and "too-soon" tragic end. She was an amazing woman who did so much for so many. I still cry when I watch video footage from her funeral....those poor little boys losing their beautiful mother at such a young age.

3.What one trait could a person possess that would bug the shit out of you?
Selfishness. If you have more than you need, give to those in need. You'll be rewarded tenfold from their gratitude.

4. If you had to eat just one meal at every meal for the rest of your life what would it be?
That's easy. Mexican food. With lots of sour cream and guacamole, please. Bring it on.........I'm getting hungry....

5. What is your favourite toy, book or game from childhood
"To Kill a Mockingbird" by Harper Lee seems to bring back the most memories. Great book. My mother gave it to me when I was nine years old and I fell in love with it. The little girl, Scout, was so much like me growing up. A little tree-climbing tomboy who would die before wearing a dress and though that "girl games" were boring. I still have to read it every few years.........and it still makes me laugh out loud and cry. If I had a daughter I would name her Scout.

I Am Being Interviewed By the Lovely Camielle (She is on my links if you don't already know her)

If you want to be interviewed by me...here's how it works:

1. If you want to participate, leave a comment below saying "interview me."
2. I will respond by asking you five questions -- each person's will be different.
3. You will update your journal/blog with the answers to the questions.
4. You will include this explanation and an offer to interview others in the same post.
5. When others comment asking to be interviewed, you will ask them five questions.
Here were my questions and responses from Camielle. This was fun!



1. when you caught the butterfly (in the afore-mentioned list), what did it look like? did you let it go?
It was a Monarch butterfly (yellow & black with big wings.) I was 8 or 10 yrs old & unfortunately...I was a kid & thought I could catch a bunch of butterflies & let them fly around my room forever& it would be sooooo cool in my room. They did not live forever & I ended up killing several before my experiment ended. I did cry & have a funeral for each of them though. I have since learned my lesson & now only look at butterflies.
2. how old were you the first time you kissed a girl? and have you ever kissed RSG??? (i had to add that one, so you'll have six)
I was 18 when I kissed a girl for the first time & it was magic!! I ended up not going any further with it & claimed to be straight for a couple more years before coming out (I did manage to kiss a few more girls in secret in between.) I think all of the emotions freaked me out as I had never felt that kind of a rush with any guy I had ever kissed. After kissing a girl I figured out what all the fuss was about.

RSG & I NEVER kissed except for the typical girl friend kisses (non-sexual) from time-to-time. We did sleep in the same bed together more times than I can count & always "spooned" but we never did anything that would be considered anything that you would be talking about...Just friends!
She was emotionally like a girlfriend of sorts but it we never tried to explored it. I didn't want to ruin the relationship if it hadn't worked out so I never tried to get anything going with her. My relationship with her was more of a BFF thing...strictly platonic.
3. what do you hate more than anything in the world?
BIGOTS. I can't stand them. Anyone who discriminates against any person is a fucking shithead in my book & I will always tell them when given the chance. To these people I say something like, "Fuck off & mind your own business... from what I see, you have more problems in your life & skeletons in your closet than I would ever think about having in mine. "
4. what is your favorite curse word and how to you use it?
It is probably "fuck a duck." I think I say that more than most other cuss words; but as I said, I don't like to discriminate so I try to use ALL the cuss words equally:)

5. if you had to choose between these, which would you choose?
a) you can only look at other people's blogs, not post on your own
b) you can blog to your heart's content, but can't read others'
a) I would rather read blogs than post...This is an easy answer for me. I used to only read blogs & never really commented on other people's blogs until I started talking to d (she is on my links.) I got a blog so I could read RSG's stuff & branched out from there.


Ok...Who wants to be interviewed by me??? DON"T MAKE ME CALL YOU BY NAME!!!:)

Thanks to Camielle...It was fun:)

Taken from UnTyd:
Here are my answers (thanks for asking Sarah!):

1. Have you ever told a secret to someone after you swore to a friend that you wouldn't? Yes, but it takes me a lot to get to that point and it's only happened a few times that I can remember. By the time I tell someone what I swore I wouldn't, we're not friends anymore anyway because of something you probably did LMAO! Not proud of it, but we're all human. I try not to...my true friends never have to worry.

2. Have you ever taken office supplies home from work? And not returned them?
Umm, duh! But only when absolutely necessary ;0)

3. Do you pop your fingers? This sounds a lil dirty if you ask me! LMAO! Nah, I'm not into popping....fingers.

4. You have children that are behaving badly...would you spank them? No. I might pat their little behind, but I would NEVER hit a child..mine or anyone else's. On the other hand, I do endorse spanking grown adults..LMAO!

5. Do you have a hidden talent? If so, what is it? I can bend like a pretzel. You can do the math from there ;0)

Interviews
Here's how it works:

1. If you want to participate, leave a comment below saying "interview me."
2. I will respond by asking you five questions -- each person's will be different.
3. You will update your journal/blog with the answers to the questions.

5. When others comment asking to be interviewed, you will ask them five questions.

Here are the questions I got from shaymo and my answers:

1. what (besides mayonnaise) do you miss the most about the u.s?
My family and friends. I never thought I could live thousands of miles from them but I've learned to adjust. And I miss Mississippi - the whole of the South, really. Miss how I share a heritage with them, miss the landscape, the culture, the food. I miss how people speak with a familiar accent and perspective.

2. what's your favorite animal?
The koala. They're my kind of animal. They hang around in trees, nap, eat and make little koalas - I can't beat that for a lifestyle. And they smell like big cough drops.

3. what's the most exciting thing you've ever done/seen?
There are a few things I could pick but one that jumps to mind is the first inaguration of Bill Clinton. I was down in the crowd and I remember there being such an electric feeling of hope and optimism.

4. what's the most outrageous thing you've ever done for love?
Quit my good, steady job, packed as many clothes and non-fragile belongings as I could get in five suitcases, left the rest of my things - computer, CDs, furniture, other clothes, home accessories, etc. - with my sister and I moved to Germany. I didn't speak more than a few words in German and I'd only spent a total of twelve days with my then boyfriend that I'd met online but I made the move anyway. And in two weeks we'll be celebrating our sixth wedding anniversary.

5. when you shower, do you sing?
Oh sure. Mostly showtunes and old standards. Today I was singing How About You?.

I like New York in June
How about you?
I like a Gershwin tune
How about you?...

Interview me!
I don't really tag others, but I think its fun playing along. Here are my responses from Shaymo, YAY have fun!

1. If you could visit one place anywhere in the world, where would it be? Although, I could name a hundred places I'd want to visit. If I had to choose just one, I'd say Rome. I'm not that regilious, but after reading Dan Brown's Angels & Demons, I'd love to visit there and learn more about the rich history of that place.

2. Do you sleep on your stomach or your back? On my back. Ya ya I've been told I snore - if I could stop doing it I would :(

3. How many people have you loved in your lifetime? Love. Ahhh love. I believe there are many different levels of love. I truly love both my parents (so that's 2), my sister (now 3) and the brother that I lost (4) and of course my aunt (so that's at least 5). But if I had to say someone I believed I loved as a partner, I think I could only say one (so 6 total). But that one was a drastic disappointment and was only really one sided. So I live on and try to love everyone now (if not at the depth of the aforementioned). And since my lifetime isn't over, I'd have to say Regis, my final answer would be everyone!

4. What do you say when you pick up the phone and it's a telemarketer? Hmmm interesting. I've had relatives that used to do that, so I try to be very polite and listen to their spiel (for as long as I can LOL). Then I just state, "Sorry I'm not interested"... they usually hang up on me.

5. What do you hate more than anything in the world? Bigotry. But as I said, I don't hate anyone, so therefore I can't even hate bigots - their attitude just makes me sad. I won't judge you, so don't judge me because of my choice of group, religion, race, politics, sexual preference, etcetera.

Whew! that was pretty deep for even me, I'd prefer to just stay the odd-ball and make everyone laugh! :P
