Via Socceraholic..
You Act Like You Are 33 Years Old |
 You are a thirtysomething at heart. You've had a taste of success and true love, but you want more! You're responsible, wise, and have enough experience to understand a lot of the world. You're at the point in your life where you understand yourself pretty well. You are figuring out what you want... and how to get it! |
Seriously, have most people of 33 figured themselves out? Wow - I've still to do this. And as for deciding what I want - never in a month of Sundays!
Snagged from Sixbucksamonkey, via Sweet Misery. I enjoyed this one, and it seemed a nice, easy way to start up the blog again. Sorry for the lack of posts - my Christmas / New Year catch up will happen soon. There is the story of the missing keys, two birthdays and a party to blog about.
But now the meme:
What is your name? Bookmole
4 Letter Word: Book - what else!
Vehicle: Bicycle, aka I’ve Gotta Bike
Boy Name: Brian
Girl Name: Brenda
Drink: Barley Wine - yummy!
Occupation: Bastard Mother from Hell, or possibly Bookkeeper
Something you wear: Bras and Berets (with other stuff as well!)
Celebrity: Bart Simpson (what do you mean, cartoons don’t count - haven’t you seen Roger Rabbit?)
Food: Bread, the staff of life, spread with Butter. Beef. Bacon. Boston Baked Beans. Gotta go eat something now. Damn this meme.
Something found: B&Q Online Catalogue.
Place: Birmingham.
Bonus Audio:
OK - now it is your turn.
Tag the world!
From RPM via spooktastic. An interesting way to while away a little time...
The rules:
1) Answer questions and type into google image search
2) Post any picture from first results page
Now I am 59, I think I will restrict my travels to somewhere the natives speak my language. And I have been to Australia already. Besides, if I visit America, I could go to Canada too. And meet up with all my Voxy peeps. Cos this is like a dream, right?
6 - My Favourite Animal
I would have like to put in a picture of Heidi... but she is a cross and the breeds she is made of do not really look like her. And you should not type Heidi in Google with Safe Search off. No. Nor Sonja. Which is why I picked a different pet. (This will make sense later)
7 - Your Favourite Colour
8 - The Town Where I Was Born
9 - The Town Where I Live Now
It is now a hotel, mostly famous for weddings. Lovely grounds which the public are welcome to walk around. But not dogs.
10 - Name of a Past Pet
There was also Odie (hello, Garfield) and Grub. Grub was just icky. Sonja was obscene. Odie was, well, Odie. As for Hungry - let's not go there!
11 - First Name of a Past Love
12 - My Best Friend's Nickname
It's Dogwoman.
And I am NOT posting any of the pictures I got when I entered that in the search. If you are interested, off you go.
13 - My Screen Name / Nickname
So I posted this - I love this. I love how I captured the house upside down in the drop.
Here is the full-size page.
14 - My First Name
And I like this Lesley.
Well done, Mr Watson. And what a memorial for his wife.
15 - My Middle Name
16 - My Surname
Sorry. No. Lesley was as far as I am willing to go.
17 - Bad Habit of Mine
18 - My First Job
And playing this game
Yes. I am a nerd.
19 - My Grandmother's Name
20 - My College Major
I had to learn all the other shit along the way.
The tax system, how to change bank accounts, how to apply for credit, how to write those stinky letters to stinky people about their stinky service - all skills I wish they had taught me at school.
Oh - I knew how to cook (basically burn) things. Glad I got better at that!
Interestingly, all the pictures for Dunce were for men. Women just are not Dunces. Yay!
Pinched from Jodipodi and EvilWombatQueen for two. Copy, delete my answers (after you have read them of course!) and replace with your own.
Two names you go by:
Mum and Sid
Two things you are wearing right now:
Red Skirt, Black Bra
Two things you would want (or have) in a relationship:
Sex. Love. Videotape. A calculator.
Two of your favourite things to do:
Listening to music. Reading
Two things you want very badly at the moment:
Peace in Burma. An end to the war in Iraq.
Two pets you had/have:
Heidi. Odie & Grub
(mother and daughter, came as a unit!)
Two people who will answer these questions, or first to send it back:
I have not the faintest idea.
Not even sure I understand the question. Hang on - was this originally an emailed meme - that would
explain it. Then Dogwoman would answer
it, and LittleMissT.
Two things you did last night:
Drank Stella, cooked chilli for dinner.
Two things you ate yesterday:
Chilli with brown bread and real butter and salad, and lentil stew
for lunch.
Two people you have last talked to:
Husband and Youngest.
Two things you're doing tomorrow:
Not getting up at 6.30 to get Youngest up for college (he has a free
day on Friday woot!), taking Heidi for a long walk up to Roxbourne Park.
Two longest car rides:
I don’t know. Honest. I don’t drive. But I would say from Haifa to Eilat in one hitchhiking journey
would be one. And having to drive 150
miles to the nearest pub in Australia would probably be the other.
Two favourite holidays:
18 days at Rebak Marina (yes, we went here!). It was hard work, doing nothing but
chilling, but I managed. And camping at
Grange Farm on the Isle of Wight. Yes, they are very different!
Rebak was luxurious, sybaritic luxury in verdant tropical surrounding, and Grange Farm, well, isn't ! But Grange had the most beautiful skies ever. Well, to a city girl like me anyway - the farm is on the seaward side of the Isle of Wight and, when the skies are clear, they are bejewelled with stars. One year we were there for the Perseid meteor showers and Daughter and I lay on our backs for hours (or at least a long time!) watching the stars falling from the sky.
Two favourite drinks:
Chilled white wine, as long as it is not a Chardonnay - look, I have
nothing against Chardonnay but honestly - have all other grape varieties gone
and died or something! Pints of
ice-cold water with crushed ice to keep the water cold as long as possible. I don’t
know why I have this passion for really cold drinks but I do. Sometimes I have
water so cold I get an ice-cream headache from it!
Your Score: Bourbon
Congratulations! You're 127 proof, with specific scores in beer (120) , wine (133), and liquor (95).
Screw all that namby-pamby chick stuff, you're going straight for the bottle and a shot glass! It'll take more than a few shots of Wild Turkey or 99 Bananas before you start seeing pink elephants. You know how to handle your alcohol, and yourself at parties.

From emily sears and foxsydee. I guessed when I answered Music to one of the questions. And really, I am a Perishers girl.
Which Peanuts Character are You?

Again, not exactly the right Y shape. Mine have a tail that curves, but not like a fish-hook. But again, the nearest to my writing. |

So true. Even if my T is just a straight line down and a bar across. No loops at all. Not an option again. But this is very me. |
|
Mmmm. Not sure about this. Yes I am practical. But I plan very little. But I do think I have a reasonably healthy self-esteem. |
|

|
Is saying what others want to hear diplomatic or evasive? Husband hates this aspect of me. I have lessened it greatly - interesting to note it is still there in my handwriting though. |
|
So true. I am known for opening my mouth and putting my foot in it. Sometimes it is just the right thing to do, sometimes not. |

|
Whoops - spot on here. |
|
Oddly, and even though it contradicts that directly above, it also is true. I think I like people socially, and can fit easily into new social situations, I need to return to a home where there are only family. My small enclave of peace. Home. |
From The K Spot, via RPM. And I though I was mature!
