Jesse's latest tag.. I'm It!

Okay, so my blog isn't so boring and I really opened the book wide open with this and the last blog post. But I thought things were dry around here and I really do like these challenges to spin the blog around! Jesse's comments are in red, if I left them! I was supposed to post this early this morning, oops! Enjoy!

5. Are you wearing socks right now? Yes, see number three.

6. When was the last time you went out of town? Too long ago.. it was last Spring to Virginia. I did pack and leave my house to pick up my children a month ago, but I had to come back home and have someone else do it for me. I’m ready.. can I come see you for Christmas? LOL

7. Have you been to the movies in the last 5 days? No, and I don’t think I’ve “been” to the movies in years now.. I watched The Devil Wears Prada last night in my family room, though and The Lake House is in the DVD Player waiting for me to finish watching it a third round interrupted.
8. What was the last thing you had to drink? Tea
9. What are you wearing now? I never thought of this being like spin the bottle and I should have checked all my clothing before starting!

15. What was the last sporting event you watched? An Atlanta Braves Baseball Game! What else? I keep thinking it was Petco stadium in San Diego, though? Would they play there? I’m so confused, cuz I know I wouldn’t just watch the padres! Shhh, I know its my hometown. But really I don’t get the whole, pet area and take your pet to the park crap. Yeah it’s the crap I don’t get. I imagine those pink phoo phoo legally blonde 2 baggies at stations like in the petting zoo! Gross.

16. What is your favorite class? Gotta go with pink, here. 1st class all the way. Okay, before I erase Jesse’s answer before I started writing in blue here, what the hell does that mean Jesse? My favorite class? Am I supposed to be a student? I am a lifetime student.. but I like them all.. I can tell you my least favorite in high school was English Lit and when my school went business prep and had a sub. Class for that, I flew out of that class just in the nick of hell time!

17. Your Dream Vacation? Just one? My first thought is “If I lay here. If I just lay here.. Would you lie with me and just forget the world?” Then I’d have to say some beach, sunsets, tropical punch, hard bodies to watch, great accents.. Then I think of what Kurt, from High School told me the last time I talked to him.. so its Bermuda!

18. The ages of your parents? Dad is 1945 and Mom is 1951, you do the math!

20. Who would you like to be with? LOL Jesse said “clean” as a description.. wonder who he meets? LOL Okay, ummm.. again I say “If I lay here.. If I just lay here.. Would you lie with me and just forget the world?” I want to be with an honest, faithful, trusting man who adores me! So umm I won’t be a bitch and say no one exists like that.. cuz I know one right now! And he is Azema!

24 . Who was the last person who commented on your page? (Jesse said me, I’m so proud!) Umm, Markus!

25. Ever go camping? Yes, last Spring was a camping trip! 30 days with no electricity or running water. I have an elevated wonderful air bed that I wish I was on right now, a battery twice the size of my van, and all the accessories rigged for it. Had the charger but never needed it. I love a tent in the rain! I just hate mud while without a washing machine!

26. Were you an honor roll student? We did not have this at my school. I was teased for having super grades. It never got in the way of the guys.. I still attracted flies. My eldest daughter was just inducted to the Honor Society.. plug plug.. LOL

27. What do you want to know about the future? Will I ever be a published author? Me too, Jesse!

28. Are you wearing any perfume or cologne? No, allergies.. ouch! Think about this the next time you go to a meeting where you will be closed in a small space with other people you do not know. Thanks, I appreciate it.

29. Where is your best friend located? Egypt

30. Do you have a tan? No

31. How old do you want to be when you have kids? Do you mean more kids? I don't know, old enough? Ditto Jesse’s answer here. I was 20, 22, 24 when my teens were born!

32. Do you collect anything? Books, Family History, Marcus Giles baseball cards, Bargains to eBay in this lifetime, and sterling silver charms and jewelry, beads?! Now I obsessively scribble. So I collect spiral bound notebooks, journals, and phoo phoo paper even to write grocery lists. I absolutely adore decorative post-it notes! I look for anything PINK, too! I guess this means I have to admit that I collect pens to go with those journals and I'm a bag Ho. I like organized mess. I love canvas bags. I love things with names on them. My name, your name? The names of my children? The name's of my unborn children?? LOL I'm also a fabric junkie. I collect quilt squares, love swaps, and remnants, buttons, etc!

33. Last time you got stopped or pulled over by a cop? 1994, wrongly. Went to court (always go to court a former highway patrolman told me, if your issuing officer can’t make it, you get to go home and are excused from it, odds are in your favor). Mine showed. Brought his kid. I’m so proud. I had all three of mine, as my witnesses had gone out to sea that morning, too. My youngest was 4 months old. I was a good mom and brought presents to occupy them, but they were both pulling at my skirts in a tiff when I was talking to the judge.. ugh! I apologized and explained why they were there. I had good documentation but did not end up needing it and I’m glad I get to share this cuz everyone needs to know this.. I didn’t know, but in California, the cop has to justify why he was where he was to pull you over. He told the court that he was called by the school he was standing near when he got me for going 38 in a 40 but tried to get me for school zone of 25mph! I also didn’t know that I had a right to question him in my own defense. I asked one question. “Sir, if you could please tell us which school called you out that day?” He replied, “I don’t remember exactly the name, this was a couple months ago, it was the elementary school behind where I was parked”. I just quietly said, “thank you”. Then, my famous words in my only courtroom drama worth repeating.. “Your honor, I’d like to present you with documentation that the elementary school that called this officer out that day was closed that day and the day before.” He tried to change his story, but the judge said his time was over. I took my babies home. Never let them win, when they are wrong. That cop pulled car after car over that afternoon. In California, the law says “when children are present”. It was almost 5pm, he pulled me in after he let one go and pulled another in after me! How many of those people didn’t know he was wrong and just paid it and then got jacked to renew or get cancelled by their insurance companies??? I hope his child learned something that day too.
34. Have you ever drank soda from a straw? Yes, from a glass with ice. Never in a can or bottle anymore.

35. How do you like your drinks? On the rocks!!
36. Do you like hot sauce? Yes, but I’m afraid of it now. So I’m a mild wimpy saucer, now. I'm the type that loves you to get nachos at a movie so I can dip jalapeno's in the nacho cheese sauce. I'll empty the jalapeno container and use them as the chips!! YUM

37. Last time you took a shower? Okay, I’m cracking a gut thinking of Jesse’s “clean” comment again! I’m not telling! I am clean all the time!

38. Who do you have a crush on? Ain't gonna' tell. Me neither.

39. What is your mood? Fun and wildly tired.

40. Are you someones best friend? Yes

41. Are you rich? I loved Jesse’s answer as its all I can really offer, too. I have three wonderful children, a great honest heritage that built my integrity 150+ years ago, and I still know my name! To me, that’s very rich! Rich isn’t ever measured in dollars in my book!
