you've been meme'd: April 2, 2006

Are you more...

01) Fast-paced big-city life or slower-paced small-town life? slower-paced small-town life--i can always visit the city but i like peace & quiet for my everyday
02) A location chooser based on your job(s) or a location chooser based on proximity to friends and family? close to my job--i love my friends & family and i miss them living so far away but my job requires commuting 5 days a week & that would be a bear to do from CT ;-) (and we all know that i LOVE my job, it would be very difficult, if not nearly impossible, to replace it)
03) Fan of the allen key (hexagon-head) or hater of the allen key? i don't even know what one is...
04) Someone who loves futons or someone who prefers more traditional couches and beds? traditional beds & couches: sooo much more comfy!
05) Grateful that winter is gone or anxious for summer to hurry up and get here? summer in FL = HOT & rainy. winter isn't really so bad. ;-)
06) Grilled cheese sandwich with ham and tomato or just a grilled cheese sandwich? ooooo! with ham & tomato please! YUM
07) Simon Cowell or Paula Abdul? don't know enough about either of them to choose to be honest with you
08) A tiger or a bear? tiger
09) Believing that politicians make the world a better place or believing that the common man makes the world a better place? the common man--you can't expect someone else to make the world a better place, it's up to each of us
10) Driven by your loins or driven by your stomach? if my stomach isn't happy, nothing else has priority

::External Hard Drive::

Onesome: External-- What sorts of gadgets do having hanging off your computer? We'll spot you that printer, but how about other goodies like scanners, card readers, cameras, MP3 players and such? my printer is a Dell All-In-One printer/scanner/copier. also have the webcam & the usb cable for the digital camera. that's it!

Twosome: Hard-- What part of working with computers is hard for you? ...working with one particular piece of software? Getting that camera to connect? ...or dealing with the family members who don't understand what the deal is? getting my AntiVirus program to auto-update its new virus definitions. for some reason it won't update on its own even though i activated that option so i have to go into the website & download them manually.

Threesome: Drive-- What drives you to the computer? Is it friends? Work? News? Recipes? The weather radar? i am so quoting Stacy on this because her answer sums it up perfectly: I’m addicted, plain and simple. I have been for over a decade. Email, IM, Hambones, blogging, surfing, shopping, reading message boards, looking things up, checking weather, researching travel, etc. You name it.

Feast Eighty-Seven

Appetizer
Name 3 things that you think are strange.
1. my dog when he "hunts" sunbeams
2. tofu
3. when people go to Wendy's, Biggie-size their meal & then get it with a Diet Coke

Soup
What was the last ceremony you attended?
Ken's graudation ceremony from the academy last May

Salad
What is one lesson you have learned in the past year?
never ever say never

Main Course
Tell us about one of your childhood memories.
one year my brother was especially naughty leading up to Easter. our father threatened him with the Easter Bunny leaving him a basketful of nothing but black jelly beans. fresh little boy that he was informed Dad that he did not care because he LIKED the black ones. well Dad got him come Easter morning when he awoke instead to a heap of bunny droppings (Raisinettes LOL! and Josh doesn't do raisins, not even chocolate-covered ones) left in the center of his otherwise empty Easter basket. Dad of course had a stash of goodies tucked away for after the point was made. the reaction was priceless & even worth his effort to choke back the laughter so as to not wake my brother up as his basket was being filled. lesson learned though: never challenge a creative father. ;-)

Dessert
If you could extend any of the four seasons to be twice as long as normal, which season would you want to lengthen?
in FL it would be Spring when the weather is perfect: warm during the day & chilly enough at night for wrapping up in a blanket, not to mention the air perfumed with the scent of orange blossoms. in New England though it would be Autumn, with its vibrant colors, warm yet brisk days, frosty nights, apple cider & pumpkins.

2 with their own thoughts:

LMFAO Oh my god, I thought my dog was the only one that stupid. He'll paw at a sun spot on the floor for a few minutes and then lay on it.

Dogs are fun, aren't they?
