Sunday Stealing

Welcome to Sunday Stealing.  A blog that posts memes they steal from other blogs... which have probably been stolen from other blogs.

1. WHAT ARE YOUR NICKNAMES? I'm not sure I really have any "true" nicknames other than what my children call me.  Typically those are indicated by the extensive overuse of the short "o" sound in "Mom" as in "Moooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooom."  Friends have called me "Ape" but I prefer "hot stuff".  It never stuck though.  Pity.  

2. WHAT CAR DO YOU DRIVE?: This is truly another question I hate to answer.  Why?  Not for any reason other than I really don't like what I drive.  Sure it's top of the line.  Sure it has all the bells and whistles -- DVD players, satellite, heated seats, yadda yadda yadda.  And, while I'm intelligent enough to realize that while a car doesn't DEFINE you as a human, they certainly posess the capabililty to suck the cool out of your life.  I drive a Chrysler Town & Country Minivan.  Sigh.  Bleh.  Next question?

3. BEST DATE YOU'VE EVER BEEN ON? (IF MARRIED, before your present spouse) Hmmm... I would say that it was probably a day trip to a quaint shopping district to window shop, share some pizza, a couple of beers, followed by a crazy stupid, yet classic movie and a Cape Cod.  Laid back, relaxed, no pressure, no fluff... simple is way under-rated.

4. WHAT HAPPENED THE LAST TIME YOU CRIED? Tears ran down my cheek.  Why?  Does something different happen to you?  

5. LONGEST SHIFT YOU HAVE WORKED AT A JOB? WHAT WAS THE JOB? I was on the job winter 1996 (I think) at the El Paso County Sheriff's Office for 2 days straight when a freak blizzard moved in leaving it not only impossible to leave work, but also impossible to drive home... for others to get INTO work... for deputies to help those in need (there were 15' snow drifts)... it was crazy bad.  

6. FAVORITE MOVIE? I'm not real good at picking favorites.  These type of answers generally depend on my mood, audience, time allowance and, even then, would be next to impossible to narrow it down. Sorry.

7. WHEN WAS THE LAST TIME YOU SANG IN PUBLIC? WHAT DID YOU SING? The last time I sang behind a microphone was when I sang with Del Rio when Willie Nelson was at Billy Bob's.  Since then it was just being silly, singing Christmas carols, embarrassing my children or being a dork singing Happy Birthday to someone.  Nothing exciting there.

8. WHAT WAS YOUR LAST FIGHT ABOUT? I don't fight.

9. WHAT STUFF DO YOU NEVER LEAVE THE HOUSE WITHOUT? As a general rule, I never leave the house without my cell phone.  Everything else is pretty disposable.  I'm rather low-maintenance.

10. FAVORITE ITEM OF TECHNOLOGY? See the answer to #9 above.

11. FAVORITE WEB SITE? Webster's dictionary.  Truth!

12. DO YOU SMOKE? Nope.  I actually was thinking how much I hated being near people who do because they just stink.  Sorry, smokers.  Your habit stinks, literally!

13. IN YOUR EXPERIENCE, HAVE LONG DISTANCE RELATIONSHIPS WORKED? I can't say that I've ever been in one... other than when I was engaged to my ex -- and, well, just by that title alone you can see how that turned out! Ha!

14. DO YOU BELIEVE IN ASTROLOGY? Do I believe that the alignment of the planets and stars has a direct impact on the happenings here on Earth?  Absolutely not.  With that in mind, I do believe, however, that the moon and rotation of the earth does affect the tides.  Astrology, to me, seems more like something people read for fun or entertainment, nothing more. I might even be compelled to consider it a superstition rather than a belief.  Horoscopes are so stupidly generic, you'd have to be a dolt to put any stock in them.

15. WHO WAS THE LAST PERSON WHO CALLED YOU? Amy

16. WHAT WAS THE LAST TEXT MESSAGE YOU RECEIVED?  I deleted it.  Whoops, sorry.  My bad.  (That's not what the text message said.... I'm just saying that I deleted it.  LOL)

17. WHAT ARE YOU WEARING RIGHT NOW?: I'm wearing my favorite black Kenneth Cole leather mules, black Gold Toe socks, Gap jeans, a wife beater, a black long sleeved button up henley and a black plaid LL Bean flannel shirt.  I LOVE FALL!

18. WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE SEASON?:  Fall (so long as it's chilly...otherwise winter.... but it'd certainly depend on winter WHERE as I like a Colorado winter...but not sure I'd like an Alberta winter!

19. BEST THING ABOUT WINTER? SNOW!  Skiing!  Campfires!  Jeans!  Christmas!  My birthday!  

20. DO YOU THINK WTIT IS COOL OR OVERRATED? Does it matter?

21. WHAT ARE YOU DOING THIS WEEKEND? Camping

22. WHAT DO YOU WANT TO BE? Batman

23. WHAT'S YOUR BIGGEST REGRET? Taking the red pill.  

24. ARE YOU SMILING? WHY? Yes.  Because that is a total bull shit answer (#23).

25. IF YOU COULD GO ANYWHERE IN THE WORLD WHERE WOULD IT BE? Estes Park, Colorado - -FOREVER!

26. DO YOU PLAY AN INSTRUMENT? LOL.... (thud).. (shut up... you know who you are... laughing at that reply right along with me!). Um... No.

27. DO YOU WISH YOU COULD SEE ANYONE IN PARTICULAR RIGHT NOW? Yes.

28. LAST THING YOU WATCHED ON YOUTUBE? A commercial about a dad flying from the East Coast to see his daughter marry her girlfriend.

29. WHY DIDN'T YOU DECIDED TO TAKE OVER STEALING?  Apparently, because I suck.
