Another List

I borrowed these questions from a site I was at today for the first time, so because I am bored and do not have a lot to say today, I thought I'd use it here:

1. If you could build a second house anywhere, where would it be?
I haven't built the first one yet, but I'd like it to be close to my parents, possibly somewhere in Baton Rouge, LA.

2. What are your favorite articles of clothing?
I love to wear a lot of things, but I really love jeans and cute jackets.

3. The last CD you bought?
mr. ralph bought it for me, the new Sarah McLachlan CD.

4. What time do you wake up in the morning?
Around 5:00 am on most mornings, if it is just to make a pitt stop and lock my cat out of my room so I can sleep for 30 more minutes.

5. What is your favorite kitchen appliance?
Our kitchen is pretty boring and basic, I like my microwave.

6. If you could play an instrument, what would it be?
hmmm. I have no idea on this one. Probably the guitar.

7. What's your favorite color?
Teal

8. Which vehicle do you prefer, sports car, motorcycle, or SUV?
Sports car, but I really don't worry about this much.

9. Do you believe in the afterlife?
Yes sometimes.

10. Favorite children's book?
When I was young I read a lot, but nothing is standing out. I really enjoyed The Velveteen Rabbit. It still makes me cry.

11. What is your favorite season?
Spring, no doubt.

12. If you have a tattoo, what is it?
I have a butterfly on my left leg just above the ankle.

13. If you could have one superpower, what would it be?
The ability to magically make new clothes appear? Sound silly, but it would be a great power.

14. Can you juggle?
No way in hell.

15. Someone from your past that you wish you could go back and talk with?
My Grandpa. The good one.

16. What is under your bed?
So much stuff! Boxes, suitcases, shoes. We have a small place.

17. What is your favorite day?
Probably Saturdays.

18. Sushi or hamburger?
Probably both, but I eat more hamburger.

Nearest Distant Shore

Tulips!

22. What is your favorite meal?
I love food. Can't you tell? But I love fresh prawns with garlic sauce. MMmm.

23. Describe your pjs.
I sleep in t-shirts and boxer shorts or just a tank and the undies. Nothing exciting.

24. Favorite Breakfast?
My most favorite breakfast is the one my mom makes, with homemade southern biscuits, grits, eggs, and some gravy.

25. Do you like your job?
On some days I do, but lately I'd say no.

26. What is your dream job?
To be able to write and make good money doing it.

27. What age do you plan to retire?
I've never thought about that one. Probably when I am around 70.

28. Where did you meet your spouse or significant other?
On Lambda moo, but in the flesh we met in the New Orleans Airport. It was a magical day.

29. Something you would like to do that you have never done before.
Travel through Europe with unlimited funds.

i kind of want to hang out and let argy go first - but i haven't checked your site for so long that i can't help but ramble a bit. Oh - you are so close to goal that you must be able to taste it. I think dropping to 18 points is a good trick for your body - eat heaps of free foods on your 12 day - egg white omelettes and stuff - i know you can do it because you have come so far. What ARE grits? I have wondered that for ages......

Grits are heavenly food. You can get Instant Grits in the store. Here is how I recommend you eat them:

1. Make a package of instant grits in the microwave.

2. Fry them in a pan so they get nice and lumpy, with a thick consistency.

3. Fry up a couple of eggs, over easy, and put them on top of the grits in a bowl.

Enjoy! The grits sop up the egg yolks like bread, and it tastes wonderful. :)

I like this list, someone sent it to me the other day by email (you know, where you fill it in first then pass it on) and we were like "you can play the piano?" heh. Always good to get insight into people - thanks for sharing.

You'd love the new jacket I'm wearing today - it's teal, in a very fine cord :)

I stay offline one day and I miss my chance to stand up to my reputation...shite! lol

I love these lists, I always think of doing one of my own after I read yours but then I am not sure why I keep procrastinating them!

I love teal too...and I have no idea what grits are either!

But they sound yummy!

A trip down memory lane

Hello to all of you all of you coming via Michele , thanks for stopping by and I only hope it was worth the trip over. I began reading through the questions on the Slimmer of The Year application today. Of course there are so many things I want to include, but I can't possibly write everything I want to or they will be getting a novel. When I started thinking of how long I have been overweight and the reasons I struggled for so long with food and weight issues a lot of memories came back to me. I've been challanged by my weight for most of my life. Granted some of that time I only thought I was fat when I really wasn't. The point is that I have been fat inside my head for as long as I can remember. One of the most shameful and embarrassing moments was when I was 15 and some of the boys in my class thought it was funny to sing "thunder, thunder, thunder thighs hooooooo!" when they saw me coming to the tune of the cartoon "Thunder Cats." That experie...

Not working

I don't know where to begin. I didn't even want to post. My instinct tells me that because I don't want to, it may be the best thing to do. I haven't weighed myself, but I've had a few very bad days. I went out on Friday night and drank an unknown amount of gin and tonics and then I ate almost a whole bag of kettle chips yesterday. I put on a pair of my size 12 jeans that should fit and are too tight last night. Damnit! I have a lot of cute clothes that I cant go anywhere near because of about 3 kilos. This 3 kilos is doing a lot to depress me right now. I stopped tracking my calories because I don't even know how much alcohol I consumed on Friday night and who wants to know how many calories and fat are in an entire bag of chips? Not only do I feel like shit, but I can't seem to motivate myself either. I know that the way I am feeling is not new and I will work through it, but right now it feels pretty much like a death sentence. It is not that I don...

Double your pleasure, double your fun...

Halfway through I do switch gears and talk about weight-loss once again [begin political rant] Recently I went out with one of my aussie female friends on a night where she was meeting up with a guy she had met on one of the match websites. That night I did happen to partake in a few too many drinks due to the price of one of my favorite bottled beers being only $4 compared to $7 or even $8 in some places. The man she met happened to be very nice, and I enjoyed speaking to him, but he had a friend with him who was with a female the likes of which I refer to as "granola". You know the kind. I don't like to contribute to stereotypes, but I hope the term "granola" is not in the least offensive to any of my readers. I like; it is good with some honey and milk. Anyway to get to the point the man friend and ms. granola appeared to not like me and it became increasingly clear why. With every comment I made about anything they seem to have the exact opposite opinio...
