The honesty meme

6 Comments »

This is a Facebook honesty meme which Maman tagged me for, but I’m going to post it to my BLOG. :)

1. What was the last thing you put in your mouth?
Cabot extra sharp cheddar cheese

2. Where was your profile picture taken?
My FB profile pic is this one:
Today's outfit

…from my desk.

3. Can you play Guitar Hero?
Yes, yes I can.

4. Name someone who made you laugh today?
Georgie and Dawg get equal time on this.

5. How late did you stay up last night and why?
2am even though I tried to go to bed at 1am and failed. I took a long, sobby nap when I got home from work. I was so tired that I burst into an anxiety attack of tears. It was purdy.

6. If you could move somewhere else, would you?
The honest answer to this is that if the basement had a kitchen area and a bathroom I’d move back into Dawg’s parents’ basement. I really enjoy his family. But, I do enjoy the privacy our castle in the sky affords us so I’d probably keep this apartment too. ;)

7. Ever been kissed under fireworks?
I am probably hurting someone’s feelings in the universe by saying: I don’t think so. Not that I remember.

8. Which of your friends lives closest to you on Facebook?
Dawg :p And then Bella lives next closest, I think.

9. Do you believe ex’s can be friends?
Dawg is great friends with his ex! But, if I didn’t have that example I would whole-heartedly say nope.

10. How do you feel about Dr Pepper?
It offends my tastebuds.

11. When was the last time you cried really hard?
Friday less than a minute after arriving home. I was just sooooo exhausted, and really upset at how tired I was, and that I couldn’t even stay vertical long enough to feed the girls their treat.

12. Who took your profile picture?
Me using Photo Booth.

13. Who was the last person you took a picture of?
Me and Dawg (with Ripley in background) so we could show Adam our Avitaween shirts and travel mug we bought.

Invaded!

14. Was yesterday better than today?
NO. Yesterday fucking SUCKED, dude.

15. Can you live a day without TV?
Yes.

16. Are you upset about anything?
I am a very sensitive person (although much less so now that I’m a New Yawkah) so being upset is my comfortable habitude.

17. Do you think relationships are ever really worth it?
Yes, although there are small snippets of time where I think everyone would be better off without one. It’s usually when I’m angry with myself for caring about something too much. If I care so much then why not talk it out? Good advice, Popstar.

18. Are you a bad influence?
I am definitely a very bad influence. I will encourage you to do exactly what you want to do.

19. Night out or night in?
As long as I’m with good company I’ll take either, but I prefer in.

20. What items could you not go without during the day?
My mind.

21. Who was the last person you visited in the hospital?
I’m drawing a blank on this one. It might have been my ex’s grandmother. She was a great lady.

22. What does the last text message in your inbox say?
It says I missed a call, but honestly I wouldn’t say I missed it… ;)

23. How do you feel about your life right now?
Mostly pretty good with a few scattered insecurities, doubts, fears, worries, and questions. More sunny than cloudy, in other words.

24. Do you hate anyone?
Yes, I do. Sometimes people get under my skin and remain there no matter what they do to prove to me they aren’t the person they presented themselves to me as originally. I wish I didn’t let people affect me that way.

25. If we were to look in your Facebook inbox, what would we find?
A lot of unanswered messages. The only time I even read FB messages is when someone writes on my wall that they’re going to write me a message. Ironic, eh?

26. Say you were given a drug test right now, would you pass?
This is a test to show I don’t have drugs in my system, yes? Then, I would pass. But I might take some bedtime Midol.

27. Has anyone ever called you perfect before?
I have an ecard photo on my Mac’s desktop from Dawg that uses that exact word in reference to me.

28. What song is stuck in your head?
We LMAFO, We rock the beat and rock the show

29. Someone knocks on your window at 2:00 a.m., who do you want it to be?
It better be my mama, cuz if it’s anyone else I’m knockin’ them the fuck off my fire escape.

30. Wanna have grandkids before you’re 50?
No.

31. Name something you have to do tomorrow:
I have to go to Atlantic City with Dawg and The Terrorist so I can eat filet mignon and roasted Caesar Salad at Red Square. I know, life is SO hard.

32. Do you think too much or too little?
Too much, always.

33. Do you smile a lot?
Yes, a lot a lot. It’s doing wonders for my wrinkle count.

I like colors, they are colorful

photo-693 Tense labelled this the Rainbow Meme. I am labelling it the Rainbow Sock Zombie Meme.

Stop looking down my shirt.

1. Do you believe in seeing a rainbow after the rain?
Yes, since I do in fact see them after the rain. And during.

2. If you could have one dream come true, what would it be?
This one feels too personal, although I’m pretty sure most of you could guess it if you thought about it long enough.

3. Do you believe in eternal love?
I believe in love from here to eternity, not sure about eternal, because if I didn’t know about you ahead of now how could I have eternally loved you?

4. What feeling do you love most?
Love wrapped in a security blanket.

5. What feeling do you hate the most?
Insecurity wrapped in hate.

6. Do you cherish every single friendship you have?
No, I do not. Some friendships are one-way: Some I consider someone a friend and they don’t consider me one, some are the other way, and some are both ways. I cherish equal friendships the most.

7. Do you believe in God?
No. At this point in my life I still have not accepted an all supreme being into my heart or mind.

8. Who cares for you most?
I do. But there are many close runners-up.

9. What do you think is the most important thing in your life?
Compassion

10. What emotion do you like to show?
Compassion

11. If you have something troubling you, what do you do?
Mumble to myself like a crazy person

12. Whom do you admire most?
That’s hard, because I admire a lot of people pretty equally. I have a lot of admiration in my heart.

13. Whom did you last chat with in a chat room?
I haven’t been in a chat room since high school. So, whoever I name won’t mean anything to you, other than NaT who none of you know very well and who is no longer blogging where I can see it.

14. What kind of person do you think the one you stole this meme from is?
She is intelligent, demanding in a strong and powerful woman way, kind-hearted to her family and close friends, a no bullshitter who hates your bullshit so don’t even go there.

15. What color do [you] dye your hair?
It used to be dyed red. I have not had it dyed since I lived in Vermont, over a year ago. Or cut! The red is still growing out. People at work think it looks pretty rad.

16. Why are you doing this meme?
Because Tense inspires me to do memes. I know some of you hate memes, but… why the hell are you still reading? :p

17. What do you do when you’re moody?
I mumble to myself, mistreat myself, say snarky things, throw tantrums, pout, go to bed, watch trash TV, give you the silent treatment… hmm, I’ll stop there. Oh, and take Midol when it gets really bad.

18. At which age do you wish to or did you, get married?
I was 26. In case you’re new here, I am no longer married.

19. If today is the last day of your life, what will you do?
Probably what I already did today, especially if I don’t know about it: Laundry, Five Guys little bacon cheeseburger, E*Sparks coffee, a visit with Mama Dawg kitties and a chat about MMA with Mr. Clean, a package pickup, kitty foods pick-up, a little friend time on the internets, hanging out with Dawg and the girls, TV. I started reading a book called Posh by Lucy Jackson that one of my favorite co-workers at my current job gave me and the first chapter is about a woman with liver cancer who knows it’s her last day of life so her dying wish is to get a mani-pedi. She dies while getting the manicure, and the manicurist finishes the job because it was stated to her as this woman’s dying wish. I think that’s cool, but that’s me.

20. Who is the person you trust the most?
Myself

21. Last time you smiled?
I smile every day, baby.

22. What are you listening to right now?
The sounds of my neighborhood out the open window.

23. Who was the last person you saw in your dream?
Dawg

24. Are you talking to someone while doing this?
Dawg

25. Do you walk with your eyes open or closed?
If it’s dark I’ll do it with my eyes closed so I can hear my way around, if it’s light I go with the eyes open approach.

26. Is there a quote by which you live?
Nope

27. Do you want someone you cannot have?
I have the one I want. :)

28. Who always makes you laugh?
Dawg, ALWAYS. Even when he’s trying to be a shit.

29. What was the worst idea you’ve had this week?
Hmm, I’m gonna need to think on this… Maybe to answer the phone when I didn’t recognize the number at work. That turned into a fiasco of ridiculosity. I should have just run for cover to the server room.

30. Do you speak another language other than English?
I speak PoppyDawg, which you might have heard in a personal video or two. We do have our own language. It’s Brawta-y baby talk, but we’re not from Jamaica. (Brawta means “gift” in Jamaican, but because of the way I was introduced to it in 1998 by the Jamaican-Carribean food of Brawta cafe in Brooklyn, it means quintessential Jamaican to me.) I have studied French, German, Chinese, Spanish, Italian, and American Sign Language (which is not spoken, btw, dur) as well as a few programming languages (alllllso not spoken), and tried to self teach Arabic (it’s a very hard language, and before I got anywhere with it I gave all my books and tapes to my co-worker who was about to be deployed; he returned without them, which is totally ok), but I speak English and PoppyDawg.

Wordy, yup. Off to finish my copy of files from the 500GB myBook to my new 1TB myBook so I can give the 500GB to Dawg, and watch The Unborn in the dark all alone while Dawg works a show where he’ll come home covered in puke (I CAN’T WAIT FOR THAT!). Later, gators!

I learned to steal from my mom, apparently

13 Comments »

stolen marker Mom, cover your eyes. When I was eight years old I had a best friend named Blake. Our parents decided we were not so great influences on each other and kept us apart for a while. Probably a good thing, because Blake and her younger sister had taught me how to steal from the local grocery store and the one time I stole anything was on my very own without them, just to see if I could do it. I stole a package of markers. The mechanics and planning of it all make me laugh every time I think back to that day, and probably helped shape me into the person I am today. When I got the markers home I was pretty excited to use them, but the more that I used them the guiltier I felt about the method in which I had obtained said markers, so I eventually threw them all into my Strawberry Shortcake garbage can. And then my mom came into my room and yelled at me for throwing away perfectly good markers, so I pulled them out of the trash and went back to drawing with them. (Yep, that’s really one of the markers. The last one left. In my favorite color, green.)

A number of people did this meme, probably including myself although I have no memory so it’s New To Me!, but I finally stole it from my mom, hence the title and backstory to this post.

A – Age: 34

B – Bed size: Queen

C – Chore You Hate: I’m gonna go for cleaning the toilet, Bob.

D – Dad’s Name: I have two dads. Bio: John, Step: Marvin

E – Essential Start Your Day Item: More sleep

F – Favorite Actor: This changes any given moment. At this moment I will go with my old standby: Bill Murray.

G – Gold or Silver: Silver

H – Height: 5’4″

I – Instrument (s) you play: I sing to dance music and 80s music, so that’d be the vocal chords

J – Job Title: Geek

K – Kid(s): I think this question is up to interpretation. Is it how many you have or how many you want? Hmm. :)

L – Like: I have a fascination with perspective right now, so I’ll say I like perspective.

M – Mom’s Name: Leslie

N – Nickname: Poppy

O – Overnight Hospital Stay Other Than Birth: None

P – Pet Peeve: Lying. And cheating. And lying about cheating. More than a pet peeve, but it’s what irks me on a consistent basis.

Q – Quote that you like: On my 8th grade family crest I chose “what goes around comes around.” Man, I was already in for a life of telling people off.

R – Righty or Lefty: To the LEFT.

S – Siblings: 1 brother, 1 complication sister, 1 stepbrother, 3 stepsisters, a few other unrelated sisters

T – Time You Wake Up: On weekdays it’s between 5:45am and 7:00am, depending on how easy it is for me to guilt myself out of the bed.

U – Useful tool: My body. And, occasionally, my mind.

V – Vegetable that you dislike: Gak. Too long a list, let’s try for the ones I do like.

W – Ways you run late: I don’t enjoy knowing what time it is.

X – X-rays You’ve Had: Teeth, back, ankle

Y – Yummy Foods You Make:Everything I make is yummy. I am awesome in the kitchen, among other areas of my home.

Z – Zodiac: Leo. (rawr)

Also, I’d like you to see some pictures and a video from my weekend, ok?

Here‘s Coney Island/Nathan’s.

Here‘s New Jersey.

Here’s Ripley drinking my water:

Kevin Smith wipes his ass with a baby wipe, just like me!

13 Comments »

Saturday night Dawg and I did indeed go to the rescheduled-from-May-2nd-2008-performance of Kevin Smith, which was held in Englewood, NJ.

Kevin Smith I am not impressed with Englewood’s accommodation of Mr. Smith. I am also not impressed with the intelligence level of the crowd regarding the style of Smith’s shows. The entire show is us, the audience, asking him questions and him answering them. It’s not a set show. His content is generally driven by the questions we ask. Granted, he goes off on the oddest seeming tangents for very long stretches of time, but that’s his charm. His shows go long. Very long. He started at 8pm. He likes to go until he’s done. When quarter to midnight rolled around he had about another hour or two left of people in line, based on the pace at which he was answering questions. I chose this time to go to the lobby for my first bathroom break and a fountain soda Coke from the lobby bar. While in the lobby and in the bathroom I had the very unpleasant experience of listening to people who worked for the theater as well as audience members bitching their heads off about how long the show was.

A. People who work the shows: You are making money. Shut up.
B. People who bought tickets: If you’re not into the format of the show THEN LEAVE. No one is making you stay. JUST YOU. It’s not like there’s a test at the end. It’s not like you didn’t get your $99 out of the show. So, fuck off.

I was listening to rumor after rumor that Smith had requested that he be able to take the stage until 1:00am but that the theater had been firm about their midnight curfew. I unknowingly I went back into the theater at about 11:55pm (I was one of the few people who paid attention to the “turn off your cellphones!!!!!” rule so had no time telling device to refer to), after having some trouble getting anyone to wait on me at the bar (too busy bitching) or anyone to open the door to the theater while both my hands were occupied with $2/8-oz glass, half filled with ice, of fountain soda Coke. When I finally did sit down the look on my face must have said “je n’suis pas amusée” because Dawg did ask if I was ok to which I curtly answered that I was fine. And then 5 minutes later the show ended. I almost had another Cloverfield experience. Fuck! I think that’s my new trademark, seriously: Walking out 5 minutes before the end of things and missing the ending. Sounds like a great trademark to have…

Anyway, I actually do digress from the main reason I am writing this post. It’s to tell you about one single, solitary segment of the performance. Kevin Smith was telling a story about a toilet and happened to mention that when he is in the comfort of his own home he now exclusively uses adult wipes, that “toilet paper is for poor people.” Now, really, he was joking about that snide remark, but when he said he only uses adult wipes I started nodding my head vigorously.

personal cleansing cloth Raise your hand if you even know what an adult wipe is. It’s a baby wipe for adults. You wipe your netherly regious with it, to make you fresh and clean. My favorite brand is the Super Stop & Shop generic CareOne kind billed as “personal cleansing cloths” which I tend to use when I poop. Cuz, did you know? I poop! And when I poop it’s not always perfect and clean and smelling like flowers. It can be messy. So I use the wipes to clean myself off. And I like the way they feel… all squishy and refreshingly cleansing and they smell nice and they sting a little bit if you have any sensitive areas, but that means “it’s working!” so that part makes me happy.

If you are not using adult wipes, might I suggest you run out and buy some to try? And let me know what you think about them.

Now that I’ve talked about poop, let me tell you if I’m cute or sexy:

Are you cute or sexxxxxy?

Yup, that sounds about right. You can take the quiz here.

Please listen to the Lick. Slam. Suck. talkcast this evening at 8:00pm Eastern during which Dawg and I will discuss transportation and lodging for the TequilaCon 2009 event!

So, Kristen put this up on her Facebook page and I was amused by the idea of trying to do this for my man, even though I know I won’t get it all right, but that’s half the fun, so here goes…

Sleeping. Reading blogs. Watching UFO Hunters and/or movies. Sitting silently. Hugging me. Repeat.

20. What is one unique talent he has?
The first talent that came to mind is severely dirty and I would feel so bad for my brother if I wrote it down so instead I’ll say: He is a wealth of knowledge on many subjects. It’s pretty fucking cool…

Firsts – not fists (sorry, Vahid), not rs (sorry, Spanish language), firsts

8 Comments »

I was going to spill the beans about my theories on BSG, but I left my handwritten notes at work so I’ll have to post those for Friday. Instead I will do a meme that I found on none other than my mom’s blog:

my hero 1. Who was your FIRST prom date?
I refused all invitations to the prom. Not my scene.
2. Do you still talk to your FIRST love?
Sometimes. He’s a Facebook friend. The extent of our conversations are me saying “omg your kids are so CUTE!” and him going “thanks!”
3. What was your FIRST alcoholic drink?
Who knows… my dad’s house was one big party sometimes.
4. What was your FIRST job?
I worked for the computer lab guy at my high school running diagnostics and installing memory and cleaning out dust bunnies from the school computers. My mom said we had to pretend I was introverted for me to get the job. Little did I know I was introverted.

5. What was your FIRST car?
A silver GMC something. My mom knows the details better.

6. Who was the FIRST person to text you today?
Dawg, but I txted him first. (And this is Wednesday’s answer, because I’m asleep by the time these publish.)

7. Who is the FIRST person you thought of this morning?
Georgia. She thinks she’s a person and it’s her job to be in my face when the alarm goes off.

8. Who was your FIRST grade teacher?
Mrs. Gable. She was Break Boy’s first grade teacher too.

9. Where did you go on your FIRST airplane ride?
England, by way of Canada.

10. Who was your FIRST best friend?
Garfield, my orange boy kitty cat.

11. Where was your FIRST sleepover?
Blake’s house, I think…

12. Who was the FIRST person you talked to today?
Dawg

13. Whose wedding were you in the FIRST time?
My brother’s.

14. What was the FIRST thing you did this morning?
Roll over and hug Dawg so I could go back to sleep.

15. What was the FIRST concert you ever went to?
Wang Chung and Tina Turner. (My mom’s first was Ike and Tina.)

16. FIRST tattoo?
I don’t have any. I now know what I would get if I got one, as long as everyone else who matters was ok with it too.

17. FIRST piercing?
My mom tells the story better than I can, but I was 8 and I almost didn’t get my other ear pierced after it hurt so much to get one pierced. I never wear earrings.

18. FIRST foreign country you’ve been to?
Besides Canada which hardly counts if you live in Vermont, England.

19. FIRST movie you remember seeing?
Star Wars IV. For the non-SW nerds, that’s the “first” one made, just not the first one chronologically.

20. When was your FIRST detention?
I have never been detained, except on the train, due to train traffic ahead of me.

21. What was the first state you lived in?
VT

22. Who was your FIRST roommate?
Teresa

23. If you had one wish. What would it be?
The answer to this goes without saying.

24. What is something you would learn if you had the chance?
I was learning Spanish from Scottish people on the ride in Wednesday morning, and distinctly decided that method was not going to work for me, but that I do really want to learn Spanish.

25. Who do you think will be the next person to post this?
Hulk Hogan and Danny Spivey will tag team it.

I think my mom’s trying to tell me something

13 Comments »

First of all, a bit of administrivia: TODAY IS B‘S BIRTHDAY!!!!!

Give her love. (And peace!)

My mom (among other people) tagged me on Facebook and reposted her meme on her own blog so I guess I better be a good kid and do it!

25 things about me:
1. I really love peanut butter, but didn’t catch on so much until I was 33.
2. I would be a vegetarian if I didn’t love cows so very much that I must consume them.
3. I could actually do without bacon, and have done so.
4. My life seems perfectly normal and unexciting to me until I compare notes with other people and then I realize that most people are really not leading their lives to their fullest potential… (What are you all waiting for, exactly?)
5. I randomly say very profound things without meaning to.
6. Whenever I am outside my home I have a scenario worked out for if someone attacks me.
7. But I feel really safe. Honest. It’s just called “being prepared”.
8. When I was a teenager I used to yell at my boobs to stop growing.
9. I have gone through stages of life where I thought I might have multiple personalities so would spot check and ask myself my name. (I always answer my given name.)
10. Dawg calls me Poppy. I call him Dawgy. When we speak about each other to our friends or family I call him Dave or David and he calls me Stef or Stefanie. Around bloggers it’s blog names.
11. When I was a pre-teen I thought it would be easier to be a boy so I wished I was one.
12. Yes, Blake, I stole your pink purse your mom gave you and threw it in the woods.
13. I hope to learn Spanish specifically so I can read all the subway signs without having to read their English equivalents.
14. I don’t tell people at my current job that I have a blog or that I’m Internet Famous, despite the fact that they could put all the pieces together just by actually paying attention to the calendar hanging up at my desk.
15. I love the subway so much that I’ve randomly happily considered memorizing every train line, starting with A. (I hadn’t quite thought through when I’d learn the numbered lines.)
16. I dated a guy that Knitting Girl also dated. He is the only guy besides my ex-husband that I ever dumped. Dumping him was so horrible that from that point on I would always make guys break up with me. I just told Knitting Girl this past weekend why I dumped the guy (then a boy) at 13. I had a vision of the future with him that freaked me the fuck out and I was unwilling to let that come to life.
17. I love to walk around naked. I’m pretty sure it slightly embarrasses Dawg, or at least makes him uncomfortable, because he won’t look directly at me. Not sure why, since I’m hot and beautiful and fun to look at.
18. I like to read periodicals from right to left.
19. I didn’t dare tell my mom until I was 33 years old that I ever drink alcohol. Before that I was scared to. Now I realize it’s part of who I am and I need to stop being scared to let people know the real me. I barely ever drink.
20. I am very happy to no longer be a homeowner for now.
21. I can’t wait to be a mommy to more babies. (Beautiful orange boy kitty, where aaaaaaaare you?)
22. Five days a week I hear or say the phrase “that’s what she said.”
23. I could take a shower all day. I love the hot water running over me…
24. …but I love ice in the bedroom. :smiles:
25. I am randomly psychic. I can read your minds right now. Stop thinking about 23 and 24. You are dirty birdies. :winks:
