These are the thoughts and observations of me — a woman of a certain age. (Oh, my, God, I'm 65!) I'm single. I'm successful enough (independent, self supporting). I live just outside Chicago, the best city in the world. I'm an aunt and a friend. I feel that voices like mine are rather underrepresented online or in print. So here I am. If my musings resonate with you, please visit my blog again sometime.

Sunday Stealing #5
SundayStealing: The "More About Me Me Me" Meme
My favorite age: 35. It felt very attractive, very womanly.
My best friend(s): The one I have referred to on this blog as, creatively enough, My Best Friend.
My celebrity crush: Current -- Don Draper from Mad Men; Eternal -- Paul McCartney
My defining characteristic: I'm very verbal
My most evil moment: I regret something very mean that I once said to a lover, something I said just to hurt him -- I'm not even sure I meant it.
My favorite food: Beef
My grossest injury: Uterine fibroids. C'mon, who really wants to hear about 'em?
My biggest hatred: Adults who CHOOSE to be uninformed voters. The government is everyone's responsibility.
My most illegal activity: I'm really very dull in this area. I can't think of a one.
My need for justice: I hate bullies. If I can dive in and even the odds a little, I will.
My most knowledgeable field: Beatle lore. Or maybe movie trivia.
My life’s goal: To be content.
My mother’s influence: Love of animals
My nerdiest point: I love the database/demographic aspect of advertising. Really.
My oldest memory: Trying to stand up next to the red ottoman when I was a toddler. It's only a split second I can recall, but it's very clear.
My perfect date: A movie and dinner
My unanswered question: Why?
My random fact: I was born at the stroke of midnight between the 21 and 22. That makes me on the cusp of a cusp -- a fact that freaks astrologists out
My stupidest decision: To stay with Stevie as long as I did.
My favorite television show: Mad Men
My style of underwear: Hanes white cotton panties -- I accept no substitutes
My favorite vegetable: Corn
My weakest trait: My temper can make me impulsive
My X-men power: I'm depressingly normal
My strongest yearning: Love
My moment of Zen: Soaking in the tub, singing along with the oldies on my shower radio
"My biggest hatred: Adults who CHOOSE to be uninformed voters. The government is everyone's responsibility."
