My *My…* meme

Avitable created a meme! And I just can’t NOT do it.

My favorite age: 49-50. Best time of my life, so far.

My best friend: Bret, also known as my lifeline.

My celebrity crush: Tim Curry. Also, Gerard Butler. And Matthew McConaughey.

My defining characteristic: I am notorious for my deep-seated insecurity.

My most evil moment: I tried to steal another woman’s husband. I tried really, really hard. There’ll be some karmic payback for that in some future lifetime, I’m sure.

My favorite food: Pizza in just about any form.

My grossest injury: I stripped the flesh off my palm down to the muscle while trying to open a drainpipe without a wrench.

My biggest hatred: Cruelty to animals. Despite this, I am not a vegetarian — which is mighty damn hypocritical of me, isn’t it?

My most illegal activity: I smuggled drugs across an international border in my bra. On two separate occasions.

My need for justice: The utter lack of separation between church and state in the Southeastern states appalls and disgusts me. Why are states and counties allowed to pass laws based solely on religious beliefs? 

My most knowledgeable field: Spelling and grammar, and incompetence with either is my pet peeve. Although I do feel some grammar rules are archaic and should be ignored.

My life’s goal: To see my novel on display at Barnes & Noble.

My mother’s influence: From her I learned unconditional love, the fine art of flirting and how to make a killer tamale pie.

My nerdiest point: Installing my own heat sink while helping Bret build our computers.

My oldest memory: Looking out a plane window and seeing vivid green. We were making a emergency stop at Shannon, Ireland so I could be rushed to hospital.

My perfect date: Indian food, followed by slow dancing and cigars over tequila at a blues bar.

My unanswered question: Why not me?

My random fact: I used to run a costume business out of my home. The costumes I designed and created won awards for my customers every year, but I never won one for my own costume.

My stupidest decision: Cashing in $55,000 worth of Tribune Company stock to pay off bills.

My favorite television show: Currently on air? Dexter. Of all time? The X-Files (seasons 1-4 only). Runners-up would be Firefly and Farscape.

My style of underwear: Boy shorts. They make even a fat ass look hot.

My favorite vegetable: Peas. Or maybe radishes. Wait, are olives a vegetable?

My weakest trait: I have a serious deficiency when it comes to self-esteem.

My X-men power: X-ray vision. I can see right through you.

My strongest yearning: That which cannot be spoken.

My moment of Zen: 4 a.m. on a rainy morning, working on my blog by candlelight, no one awake but me and Mouse and the coffee pot.

    Okay so, I always thought it was “deep-seeded” not “deep-seated”. I learn something new every day, even though I totally feel like a dumbass right now.

    In reading your meme … I wondered if you have caught the new show called “Fringe.” It is totally up your alley of the type of shows you like.

    It’s definitely intense. Check it out.

  8. kilax Says:

    We may share the same hatred! ;) Don’t feel guilty - just being conscious of it all is important :)

    And oh, Gerard Butler? May I say YUMMY?

  9. SJ Says:

    Sizzle: It was one of the grossest things I’ve ever seen, and it was my own hand. And it hurt like a mofo.

    Adam: And then the damn thing was so LOUD we ended up replacing it a few months later. So that makes me doubly nerdy.

    Catherine: Can’t wait to read yours! I like reading other people’s memes even more than doing one myself.

    Hilly: Don’t feel bad. I have a few of those lifelong misconceptions myself.

    Mattie: That’s what my daughter says! I have “Fringe” recorded, but haven’t yet watched it. I’m looking forward to it.

    Kevin: Because anything to do with Tim Curry is cool, that’s why.

    James: Huh. I don’t know how it got on that directory, but a few of my friends’ blogs are on there, too. Thanks for stopping by!

    Kim: We are united in our love of animals, aren’t we? And manly men.
