I know my ABCs

Stole this from Bluepaintred who stole if from somebody else.

A - Age: 36

B - Bed size: Really Big. Am I supposed to know bed sizes? I heart my really big water bed that used to be Andy's, but he's only allowed to visit it now... until such time as we live in the same house again.

C - Chore You Hate: dishes

D – Dad’s Name: Dave (His brothers STILL call him Davey)

E - Essential Start Your Day Item: Coffee and Internet

F - Favorite Actor: That guy... you know, the Han Solo and Indiana Jones guy. Love that guy.

G - Gold or Silver: Plastic

H - Height: 5'11"--- or maybe 5' 10 1/2" Something like that.

I - Instrument (s) you play: Guitar. Not well.

J - Job Title: Owner. Really, there isn't a manager to talk to. I know it seems unusual for a woman to own a sign business, but after all we bought it from a woman too. No, you can't talk to my husband.

K - Kid(s)
: One. Two if the dog counts. Three if the other dog counts. Four if Andy counts but I don't think he does. I might count but then there wouldn't be an adult in the house.

L - Like: A good book followed by twelve hours of sleep and a house that's naturally above 70 degrees in the AM.

M - Mom’s Name: Sherry (I did not tell you that her middle name is Lynn.)

N - Nickname: For a brief time in middle school I was known as Marmeduke. It's the only time I ever had a nickname and middle schools still give me the heebbie jeebies .

O - Overnight Hospital Stay Other Than Birth: Never been in the hospital overnight unless I was having a baby or being born.

P - Pet Peeve: The word "entitlement" being applied to the idea that I might be just as worthy of health care as anybody else.

Q - Quote that you like: "Death can't stop true love, only slow it down..." Princess Bride (Was the first thing that came to mind.)

R - Righty or Lefty: Left with ambidextrous tendencies.

S - Siblings: I am the oldest of four. Two sisters and one brother.

T - Time You Wake Up: Depends on what I've got going on that day anytime from 6:30 AM to 8:00... on a day I don't have any appointments I might be in PJs till 11:00 though. Please call first. You don't want to see me in PJs.

U - Useful tool: Ruler. Digital Camera. Rotozip (love that thing)

V - Vegetable that you dislike: Broccoli

W - Ways you run late: Can't find the keys.

X - X-rays You’ve Had: Dentist... years ago.

Y - Yummy Foods You Make: I make Honey Sesame Chicken Thighs (Chicken Parts Cookbook) and Winter Sausage Soup (Saving Dinner the Low Carb Way) those are the most requested by Andy and Jasmine. The soup even has vegetables in it but Jasmine likes it anyway.

Z - Zodiac: Aries. April 4th. Money is a great gift and don't tell me not to spend it on bills. A girl's gotta do what a girl's gotta do.

The Princess Bride is one of my all time faves. I'm a lefty with plenty of right handedness in me as well. And...your pet peeve was dead on. Cheers Marilyn!!

I despise doing dishes too.

Why on earth were you called Marmaduke?

The honey sesame chicken sounds yummy. I'd love to make a spicy version of it.

Marilyn said...

Matt-man: I love that movie

Janna: I was tall and goofy and not attractive. I think that's why.

Part of the Aries lesson is to use material goods wisely. or not.
