progress!
It was "only" 95 degrees in the house when I got home. It was 98 in here yesterday, so I'm taking this as progress. I will be so glad when tomorrow comes! Back to the upper 80's, which, really, is still hotter than normal for Seattle. But I'm turning into a big flat slob because all I've been able to do is sit on my ass downstairs in front of the fan every night this week. I need to move! I need to clean! I need to stop eating popsicles! No more freakish, never-before-happened-in-the-history-of-forever weather. El Nino can take its ass back to California and give us our jet stream back. Never in my life do I want to see temps over 100 degees here. It's unnatural! (Or at least not until I'm rich enough to have air conditioning.)
So I've spammed Facebook like crazy, so now I'm going to do that meme thing.
1. What did you have for dinner last night? A taco salad at Azteca. There was NO WAY we could stay in the house while the sun was still up.
2. Have you ever wished you had a different last name? Of course! One of my husband's former supervisor's was Amy Paris. I would've killed for that name! Okay, not really. It's just a name. Who cares.
3. Would you ever consider piercing your lip? Oh, eww, no freaking way.
4. Have you ever cheated on a test in school? A physics test in high school. But the whole class cheated. We had a sub that day.
5. Something you used to love but have lost interest in? Can't think of anything off hand
6. If you're being extremely quiet, what does it mean? Nothing. I'm an introvert. Quiet isn't an unusual state.
7. Have you ever kissed someone and never saw them again? Oh, I couldn't get that lucky. I'd always have to see them on Monday just so God could make me cringe.
8. Do you announce when you have to pee sometimes? Always. Well, when I'm at home, that is. Every evening goes something like, "I gotta pee!" to which Erik says, "Um, I think you should go upstairs to the bathroom." Every couple has their stupid things, right?
9. Kids then marriage or marriage then kids? Marriage, and that's it.
10. Do you hang up on telemarketers? I will say, "I'm sorry, I don't have time," and then I'll hang up.
11. If someone offered you $80,000 to marry them for a year, would you do it? Will I have to sleep with him? What does he look like? Is he funny? When do I get the money? Where does he live? Do I have to pay taxes on this 80 grand? I must have more details. Is he gay and just needs me to be his beard? Because I would LOVE that. I might not even need 80 grand for that.
12. Have you ever been rock climbing? No. I really don't see the appeal.
13. Do you get depressed about things easily? Not unless I'm PMS'ing.
14. Are you a celebrity news junkie? Not really. I'll click on an E! link if it looks interesting, but otherwise, no. I don't tend to fangirl celebrities.
15. Water - bottle or tap? Tap water from a Brita pitcher. Tap water itself is yucky. But then, I drink alot of water. I make my ice cubes with the water from the Brita, too, or the ice cubes are nasty. Erik thinks it tastes fine. Whatever.
16. Do you use a landline or cell more often? I rarely talk on the phone at home. But I guess the landline since I'm on the phone alot at work.
17. Do you earn your living doing what you love, or do you earn your living in order to do what you love? The latter. I hate the Oprah bollocks about your life purpose and all that crap. I exchange my skill set for a paycheck, so I do something I'm good at and with people I (mostly) enjoy. But would I do it for free? Hell, no. I do it to have a home and fun things in my life and to be a productive member of society.
18. Do you love where you live? It's a great place to live. I'd get a different house in a heartbeat, though, if I could afford it.
19. Do you consider yourself religious? Spiritual? Neither? Not religious, not spiritual, but not neither. So there.
20. Were you raised in a family that participated in a religious tradition? Lutheran. I'd never pick a different religion if I wanted to go to church. And nothing against going to church. Just not my thing now that I'm grown up.
21. If you owned a restaurant, what kind of food would you serve? A bakery instead. With cupcakes. I'll eat at somebody else's restaurant.
22. Do you clean when you're upset? That would be a definite no.
23. A college calls you up and says that you have been selected to get any degree that you want on their dollar.... what do you choose? Defense Against the Dark Arts. Or, if we're living in the real world, something really fun and useless like French
24. Which store, excluding a grocery store, do you shop at most often? Target
25. If you were drafted into a war would you survive? I sure hope so. You put me in the middle of gunfire, and I'm not just gonna sit there and wait to die.
