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
Sunday Stealing: The Over the Top Meme
Part One - Describe:
Your hair? Short again, and probably forever more.
Your mother? Doing better, thank you.
Your father? Died almost 20 years ago.
Your favorite food? Burgers. Or maybe cheeseburgers. Yummmm ...
Your dream last night? I don't recall
Your favorite drink? Coke.
Your dream/goal? To restore order to this messy condo!
The room are you in? Living room
Your hobby? Sitting on the sofa, farting around on the Internet
Your fear? Plane crash
Your TV? Showing a Man from UNCLE rerun
Your Pets? Three highly individual cats
Friends? Quite an eclectic collection!
Your life? My own, thank you very much.
Your mood? Slightly unsettled
If you're missing someone? Yes
Your best friend? Yes! How did you know that's who I miss?
Part Two - The Where's?
Where do you want to be in 6 years? Sitting on a new sofa
Where were you last night? Grocery shopping
Where did you grow up? A suburb two or three towns over
One place that I go to over and over? Downstairs to the laundry room
Your favorite place to eat out? Monk's Pub. Great burgers!
Wish list items? Adam Lambert's debut CD, a nice new humidifier for the living room ... that's all that springs to mind right now. Not too glamorous, I know.
Last time you laughed? Watching a clip of Esteban Colberto interviewing Lou Dobbs about immigration.
Last time you cried? At the health club Friday. It had nothing to do with my workout. It's just I had time alone with my thoughts as I strode along on the treadmill. I'm sure no one noticed.
Part Three - The What's?
Something that you aren't? Organized!
Last thing you did? Yelled at Reynaldo, the world's worst cat. I don't know why I bother. It seems only to amuse him, not deter him.
What are you wearing? A nightshirt that says, ironically enough, "She who loves cats."
Something you're not wearing? My watch
Your favorite store? The Body Shop
I love how you worked 'missing someone' into 'best friend'!!!

I knew someone who died in a plane crash and have been afraid to fly since then.

HA! You and I are almost the same person as our favorite hobby is farting around online! :) Well, except for your gym dedication. I wish I shared that.
ReplyDeleteHappy Sunday, chickie!
The "Man from UNCLE" brings back memories! Happy Sunday...
ReplyDeleteOooh, the Man from UNCLE!! Wish I had known it was on, I would have loved catching it. I've been watching TopChef on Bravo all day.
