Because I am tired and this is entertaining me
...while I wait for David to get out of the bathroom.
Stolen from summer_diva:
1. Make a list of 5 things you can see:
* My laptop
* an Ikea desk lamp
* a stack of medical receipts I have to submit for Flexcomp reimbusement
* my external hard drive
* a gorgeous photograph of Vermont foliage that I bought for David last Autumn
2. Would you ever get plastic surgery?
No. I consider surgery too serious to have it for cosmetic reasons.
3. If you were acting in a movie who would you rather play, the hero or the villain?
Villain - they get all the best lines
4. What's your occupation?
Senior Technical Trainer for a litigation support software company.
5. Do you nap a lot?
Not often enough.
6. What was your first car?
1974 creampuff Chevy Impala. I bought it used from a kid who inherited it from his grandfather. It was 4 years old but only had about 11,000 miles on it. The kid thought it was not cool and wouldn't drive it. His loss, my gain.
7. What's your current fandom/obsession/addiction?
Don't have one.
8. What was the last thing you ate today?
Grilled balsamic chicken with sauteed vegetables and garlic.
9. What was the last text message you received?
"Hi Mom - have fun at bowling. I'm off to chess club" from Aaron
10. What websites do you always visit when you go online?
My Freecycle(TM) group site, Facebook, LiveJournal (duh), Above the Law (a legal gossip site)
11. What was the last thing you bought?
Lunch
12. What are you listening to right now?
Nothing - very quiet up here
13. If you could pick another name for you, what would it be?
I like my name - never wanted any other.
14. What is your zodiac sign?
Aries
15. What is your favorite weather, and why?
The first crisp days of Autumn, when the sky is so blue it hurts to look at it and the trees are remembering their true colors. Makes me feel more alive than anything else.
16. If you could play any musical instrument, which one would you play?
I do play piano and violin and a little guitar. I've always wanted to play the flute.
17. Do you have any siblings?
One older brother - Alex. See previous journal entries on why I do not consider him family.
18. What's something you'd like to say to someone right now?
I love you.
19. What are your plans for next weekend?
Getting Sarah's prom dress altered, going to a hockey game.
20. Say something to the person who tagged you:
No one tagged me.. but all my LJ friends are fabulous (Direct quote from summer_diva but it applies here too.)
Right Now I'm...
Feeling: Tired and a little achy.
Wearing: black dress slacks and a purple velvet twinset
Wishing: We win the MegaMillions jackpot tonight.
Missing: My parents and my best friend, Brenda
Thinking: That tomorrow is going to be a LONG ASS day
Wondering: Why anyone takes Rush Limbaugh seriously.
Raving About: Sarah getting accepted to UVM
Ranting About: See what I'm wondering about...
Fangirling/Drooling Over: Hugh Jackman at the Oscars. Damn that man looks good in a tux!
Thankful For: My new job with fun co-workers and the company bowling night - tonight was fun!
Planning: On getting a massage soon.
Looking Forward To: Possibly sex this weekend...
Dreading: College tuitions
Wanting: More sleep
Hoping: That Trish does fabulously well with her new cancer treatments.
