I vowed I would not Stumble, click any links on Twitter or …. until I had cleared out the “Blogs I Read” section in my Google Reader.
Doing so has been rather good for my own blogging in that I have come across a few really cool ideas for posts.
But do you realise how freaken hard it was!!!!
Today’s post – the ABC’s of Me comes from reading MissB – The ABC’s of me
The ABC’s of Me.
A. Age: 36.
B. Bed size: Queen.
C. Chores you dislike: Dusting. I just seem to spread it around more than I remove it from anything. I do love the smell of furniture polish though so I save that until last (almost as a reward).
D. Dogs: I grew up on a farm and we had a pretty cool sheep dog. Funnily enough her name was Nell (same as one of my besties). I’d love a dog now but his majesty Napoleon Dynamite would have a fit.
E. Essential start to your day: Coffee.
F. Favourite colour: Blue.
G. Gold or silver: Silver.
H. Height: I am so close to 5 foot 7 that I may as well be.
I. Instruments you play(ed): Does the recorder count? I tried to learn the guitar for about 3 minutes and gave up.
J. Job title: Principal Infrastructure Designer – the ink on that contract isn’t even dry yet (so excited!).
K. Kids: Sometime soon I will have to resign my self to the fact that it probably will not happen for me. So I’m enjoying spending time with my friends kids (as my nephew is over 12,000km away) … and the best part is that when they are smelly or grumpy – I can pass them back!
L. Live: Auckland, New Zealand.
M. Mum’s name: Lynley.
N. Nicknames: Tara, Teej, T-J, pea, Chi-Chi.
O. Overnight hospital stays: a few nights when I found out I have a kidney disease.
P. Pet peeves: the NO people (who don’t even think of the possibilities), people who interrupt your sentences constantly.
Q. Quote from a movie: I believe in the sweet spot, soft-core pornography, opening your presents Christmas morning rather than Christmas Eve and I believe in long, slow, deep, soft, wet kisses that last three days” Kevin Costner as Crash Davis – Bull Durham.
R. Righty or lefty: Righty. But when I am bored, I write with my left hand. Consequently, I’m rather good at it.
S. Siblings: Twin brothers – younger. We are all terrible at keeping in contact. But I miss them – horribly.
T. Time you wake up: The alarm goes off at 5.30am, not always guaranteed to be 100% awake though.
U. Underwear: Very very girlie, colour matches my outfit for the day.
V. Vegetables you don’t like: Brussel sprouts. WHAT THE?
W. What makes you run late: Learning how to use my new hairdryer. And the fact that I refuse to cut my hair so I take ages to make it look shiny and presentable. I will not admit defeat.
X. X-Rays you’ve had: None that I can remember.
Y. Yummy food you make: Roast. I rock the fuck out of a roasting pan.
Z. Zoo animal favourites: Polar bears, red pandas and tigers. Raaaaaaaaaa!!
Do it kids, and let me know!
