Come And Light My Fire….

…. by giving me your burning questions.

I’ve been tagged so many times with memes lately, I can hardly recall what I’ve been tagged for anymore.

In case you’ve missed any of my meme fulfillments, please feel free to catch up here, here, here, here, here, here, here, here, here, here, here, here, and…. here.

May I please have a meme crown now?

As much as I would like to believe that any of you will actually click on those links (that I just spent the past 15 minutes linking), I know you won’t. SO, I’m swiping an idea from CajunVegan, BurghBaby, and DaddyDan. A little Q & A to hopefully clear the air.

So… ASK ME! Leave a question in the comments, and I’ll do my best to answer them. Try to keep ‘em nice and clean, and I’ll do my best not to be mean and dirty when I reply (unless you want me to). I’ll post replies in a separate post. This will give me some sanity during the stress of moving, signing our mortgage, and the next 30 years of Cup O’Noodle dinners.

In the meantime, please give a round of applause for Andie Summerkiss, PAJohnson, SweetiePie, and Kelly. They all tagged me many weeks ago, and I was never able to get to their meme’s in time. I know. I suck. Feel free to leave me an inappropriate question in the comments in if you like (just them, k?).

Now if you’ll excuse me, I have more meme business to take care of.

4 Random Facts
Tagged by: Marla

1) I hate underwire bras. Pre-baby they didn’t bother me. Now I’ve removed them from all of my bras.

2) I’m not a huge book reader. I’ll pick up a book every now and then, but I was never one of those kids with a book in bed reading by moonlight or flashlight.

3) I love Chuck-E-Cheese pizza (don’t judge me). I’m almost certain the one near our house laces their pies with crack.

4) I’m a night owl. Always have been. I’m usually up until 1-2am writing these boring posts, click “Publish” and fall asleep around 3am watching VH-1 Celebrity Rehab, Rock of Love2, or Scott Baio is 36 and Pregnant, when I should be reading a stinkin’ book!


Page 123 Meme

Tagged by: Pat

Instructions:
1. Pick up the nearest book (of at least 123 pages).
2. Open the book to page 123.
3. Find the fifth sentence.
4. Post the next three sentences.
5. Tag five people.

All of our books (that are over 123 pages) are packed. But my husband has 1 remaining book on the night table. Did I mention I’m not a huge reader? Hubby is, and this. is. a. snoozer.

Page 123 just happens to be the first page of Chapter 6….of 25!
Fifth sentence + the next 3 sentences:

“Nor did I know that I would, in the years following the Eastern bloc’s collapse, become witness to a very rare event: the emergence of competitive market economies from the ashes of centrally planned ones. In the process, the demise of the central planning exposed the almost unimaginable extent of the rot that had accumulated over decades. But the biggest surprise that awaited me was an extraordinary tutorial on the roots of market capitalism.”

Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz……

*shakes head*

Sorry. Are you still with me?

Okay, fire away your questions!
