last February Random!

Yes.. it’s Random Dozen time. I feel like saying “hellooooo out there” since I haven’t been on much lately. But I’m still getting over my bronchitis and the after affects of the meds. : p And then there are allergies and cold weather and then the whole “I really don’t feel like I have anything to say” deal. So anyhoo, here goes with the Random!

1. Have you ever fired a gun or shot a bow and arrow? No. I think I would be scared to do that… would probably freak out after I did it.


2. Do you know where your childhood best friends are? No, I have no idea, nor do I care to try to find them on Facebook. Life has moooved on, thankyouverymuch!

3. Do you usually arrive early, late, or on time? Early. I feel weird when I arrive just ‘on time’ and a place is already packed and I’ve got to find a place to sit etc. I would rather be a little early and scope things out and find my spot etc. Don’t even get me started about ‘the late’. Drives me nuts.


4. Are you more of a New York or California type? I have no idea. I used to get bugged when I’d watch David Letterman or Johnny Carson (yes, I am stinkin’ old!) and some comedian would be discussing the differences between New York and LA. Like I am supposed to know.. or care. Has anyone not informed those people that there are a vast many states in between NY and LA? To answer your question.. neither. Hubs has been to NYC and he came home telling me I would hate it. And I have zero desire to be an uppity LA person either. I am a van driving mom from the burbs and I like it.


5. Do you have a special ring tone? It’s a doorbell and I love it! It’s very discreet and not obnoxious. My old phone ring tone was the Animaniacs theme music.. so I think I can say a thing or two about obnoxious!


6. What is your favorite type of chip? Baked Tostitos if I’m being good and regular ole bbq Lays if I’m not.


7. Best comedy you've ever seen is ....I have no idea. Hubs and I used to watch Seinfeld and think there aren’t many that can top it.


8. Have you ever cut your own hair? To quote Dr. Phil, "How'd that work for ya?" I have not. And I don’t plan to take up home hair care with the Flowbee either. Although I *do* cut my hubby’s hair and it turns out good.


9. If you were going to have an extreme makeover, would you rather it be about your house or your personal self? I would rather buy another, bigger house and then have THAT house made over.


10. Are you allergic to anything? Can’t eat dairy.. not allergic to it, but it makes me sick. Allergic to codeine.

11. Why is it so hard to change? Because we are sinful people and often blinded to the fact that we are wrong and need to ‘change’.


12. One last question dedicated to February love: CS Lewis said, "To love is to be vulnerable." Please share one example of that assertion or share any thought you'd like to about this topic. Pfffffth. I dunno.

You answered #2 in a way I have never thought of. But oh so true.

The doctor just told me to cut out dairy. But I just love my ice cream!

I agree with you about#2.

Gberger said...

I always love these. Allegra Smith posted a wonderful one on her blog - I've linked it to mine today, if you're interested.

So sorry that it's taking this long for you to feel better. I have had something similar, and am still "under par" (what a crazy expression! In golf, under par is GOOD). Okay, I'm still not operating at 100%. I hope you are feeling better with each day!

I am an on time girl myself. I get a case of the nerves if I run late...and that is not good for the belly!
You would not like NY. I can tell. I don't even like it!
If I had your ringtone, Ozzie would lose his mind about 10 times a day. :0

Did you ever see "there is something about Mary"? It is the best comedy movie ever. rated R. BUT FUNNY!!!!

Susan said...

Loved your answers today! Your ringtone is a doorbell??? How fun! Hope you're well.

Kathy said...

Just stopping by to say hi and "meet" you. A door bell for a ring tone. I like that! I enjoyed your answers and spending time reading your blog...and yes, Seinfeld is hard to top! Kathy (Reflections...by Kathy)

Jewel said...

Oh yes, Seinfeld is CLASSIC!

Your answer to number 12... love it! HA

The worst thing about shooting a gun is the fact that your own thoughts get the better of you if you're scared. There's really nothing to it if you can get over your own thoughts and fears!

Unknown said...

I'm not afraid to cut hubby's hair either...but I won't touch mine...probably because his is pretty simple...and...well...it's his head lol! ;-)

Jill said...

I've done both on #1. #2 - I have kept up with a few high school friends (and befriended them on Facebook), but we're not really close. It's nice to know what's going on in their lives though. I'm not a New York OR California person either.

Nel said...

Enjoyed your answers. You know what is strange about facebook... I am friends now with kids I did not even talk to in school. And we actually enjoy chatting now. There is about 25 from my graduating class. It's been kinda fun but weird. I did pick CA as my choice only because I love the ocean, but I am just a country person.

until next time... nel
