Jumbled Meme....from Cal's page
1. What were doing 10 years ago?
Same thing I'm doing now, working.
2. Five snacks that you enjoy in a perfect, non weight-gaining world?
Pizza, Hershey's milk chocolate or Hebert's white chocolate, chips and dip, taco's, peppermint ice cream
3. Five things you would do if you were a billionaire:
Pay off the debt of everyone in my family.
Donate to charity.
Donate to the day care center that helped me back when I was a single mother.
Donate to the town I grew up in and live in now.
Spend freely.
4. Three of your habits:
Facebook (more an addiction than a habit), eat, turn the pillow sideways to sleep.
5. Five jobs that you've have had:
newspaper delivery person, cashier in a convenience store, cashier in a religious store, clerk/typist at city hall, complaint responder
6. Five places that you've lived:
Leicester, Worcester, Cherry Valley, Rochdale (for 2 days) and that's it. No where else.
7. Five things that you did yesterday:
Worked, Facebook, watched television, ate, took a hot bath
8. Five people you would want to get to know more about:
Keanu Reeves, Princess Diana, Doris Day, Axl Rose, Shemar Moore
9. Abortion: for or against it?
Pro-choice - who are we to force others to do what we would do ourselves?
10. Do you think the world would fail with a female president?
Hmmm...didn't know there was a World President. Interesting. But, I don't know about failure. I agree with Call that men have f*%^ed things up for long enough. But not sure it will happen in my lifetime.
11. Do you believe in the death penalty?
I stole part of Cal's answer because it's right on: On a case by case basis depending on the severity of the crime committed. And no more than a month between sentencing and execution. Special judges need to be set up to deal with all appeals but 30 days later - it's done.
12. Do you wish marijuana would be legalized already?
Yeah, I think so, then I wouldn't have to worry about certain people I know getting arrested for it. LOL
13. Are you for or against premarital sex?
I would have to say against, but that's because I was a single mother at age 18 and let me tell you, it was NOT easy.
14. Do you think same sex marriage should be legalized?
Definitely.
15. Do you think it's wrong that so many Hispanics are illegally moving to the USA?
I don't think it's wrong and it's definitely not just one culture - lots of people want to come here. When you see what they came from, you can see why. United States is both hated and envied. Sometimes I hate it too. Sometimes I envy it.
16. Should the alcohol age be lowered to eighteen?
18 is fine. My kids will not drink until they are 30 anyway. Okay, stop laughing. Yes, you, stop laughing. Not funny!
17. Should the war in Iraq be called off?
I think we should get out of any place where we are not wanted. Then they can see if they like their lives as it is without any assistance. If they then asked for help, give it to them.
18. Assisted suicide is illegal: do you agree?
No. Do what you want to do for yourself. I think I would help someone if asked and I would hope someone would do the same for me.
19. Do you believe in spanking children?
I have smacked my kids a time or two - have some teens in your house, that'll do it. I don't make it a habit and it was pretty much a reaction thing - which I should be adult enough to know you shouldn't do.
20. Do you worry that others will judge you from reading some of your answers?
I'm always afraid of being judged. Not so much for my answers here or for that matter, on any blog. But, in real life if I go to a buffet I figure that people are saying stuff about the fat beast up there. I know this is so because I am one of those people who says stuff (not aloud) about anyone heavier than me up there. I'm pathetic and sad. Being fat makes you that way.
Same thing I'm doing now, working.

Theme Thursday - Mirror
When I look in the mirror I do not like what I see. I see someone who has a lot of weight to lose. I see someone whose face has more and more wrinkles every day, yet, I still get pimples. How is that fair? I see someone who has crazy curls, who needs a haircut and who needs to color up some grays. I see a jutting chin and a bulb nose and no symmetry to my face.
When I look in the mirror I see someone who doesn’t look like my father or my mother. Where did I come from? Who knows? My mother always thought it was funny to say I was the “milkman’s” because I didn’t resemble my brothers and sisters. Now that we are adults, we all resemble each other…so my fear of not having the same parents is moot.
When I look in the mirror I see a 45 year old woman who has to lose a lot of weight, has more and more wrinkles every day, has pimples on occasion, has crazy curls, who needs a haircut, who needs to color up some grays, who has a jutting chin and a bulb nose and no symmetry to the face, but, if I don’t look in the mirror, I’m none of those things.

Theme Thursday - Bread
One of my favorite groups growing up was David Gates and Bread - such a mellow (no pun intended!) group and they had a lot of top songs but my favorite, especially now that I have a daughter, is simply called "Daughter." So this is dedicated to my daughter, Nicole. :)
Daughter - don't give your love to the first man you see.
Just bide your time so your heart will be free to find the one,
Girl you don't have to run.
Daughter - don't think that love has gone out of style,
Just some folks every once in a while don't understand
How this world was planned.
Now I know you're wondering how
You know when the real thing is comin' your way,
When you live for him and not you
You'll know that it's truly comin' to stay.
Daughter - I know it's hard to make yourself wait,
But when the right man comes it's never too late
So don't you cry ,
He'll be here by and by... and steal your heart away.
Although that was probably one not too many of you have heard, I bet you have heard this one:

More meme - taken from Canadian Cal
1. Name someone with the same birthday as you.
Susan Dey is the only one I can think of off the top of my head.
2. Where was your first kiss?
3rd grade, Memorial School, Jody Becker.
3. Have you ever hit someone of the opposite sex? If yes, why?
Yep, mostly in jest. Once seriously when I tried to make John wake up - little did I know he was having a seizure.
4. Have you ever sung in front of a large number of people? When?
Nope. I did try out for a high school musical back in the day but was assigned to make up. That tells a lot.
5. What is the first thing you notice about the other sex?
Eyes and smile.
6. What really turns you off?
Men who think they are all that and a bag of chips. I hate pompous asses.
7. What is your biggest mistake?
My biggest mistake turned out to be one of my proudest - I got pregnant in my teens and had my now 25 year old son and raised him on my own until Wings and I got married when my son was 11.
8. Have you ever hurt yourself on purpose?
I've thought of it - but have never acted on anything suicidal.
9. Say something totally random about yourself.
I have a façade that very few people see beyond.
10. Has anyone ever said you looked like a celebrity?
I actually won 2nd place in a Buffy look-a-like contest. And for you young'uns: Not Buffy the Vampire Slayer - Buffy from Family Affair. LOL
11. Do you still watch kiddie movies or TV shows?
Oh definitely - I actually watched Spongebob today!
12. Are you comfortable with your height?
I am definitely too short.
13. What is the most romantic thing someone of the preferred sex has done for you?
He did a scavenger hunt and the last "find" was him, proposing!
14. When do you know it's love?
When no matter what kind of a bitch I am, Joe hasn't left me yet.
15. What's something that really annoys you?
The way people don't acknowledge personal space anymore. And I don't know if it's a culture thing or what not; but stop frickin' breathing down my neck in line. And good lord, don't even go to the side of me in line...I will rip your ever loving heart out.
