Sunday Stealing: The Voice Post Meme
1) What's your middle name? Gal
2) How old are you? 52
3) Where are you from? Are you living there right now? I have lived my entire life in the Chicagoland area. Where I live now is about 40 miles from the hospital where I was born.
4) Is it cold where you are? It is currently 66ยบ.
5) What's the time? Almost 10:30 PM on Saturday
6) What are you wearing? An oversized t-shirt emblazoned with a photo of Robert the Doll, my favorite demonic talisman, and support hose to prevent clotting (see post below). Yes, it's a good thing you aren't here because I'm sure I'm damn near irresistible right now.
7) What was the last thing you listened to? Something from my Dusty Springfield playlist. I'm seriously into Dusty these days.
8) What was the last thing you ate? A tossed green salad topped with slivered almonds, raisins and French dressing. I made it myself!
9) What was the last thing you watched on TV? George Clooney's exceptional Good Night and Good Luck is on right now.
10) What's your favorite tv show? Why? NCIS. Because Gibbs is my TV Boyfriend. If you see Mark Harmon, please tell him I love him.
11) Quick! Find a book, or something with text on it! Flip to a random page and post the second paragraph's first sentence. "Throughout the romantic whirlwind, Carly continued to write songs -- not just 'Anticipation' about Cat Stevens but 'Three Days' about Kris." From Girls Like Us by Sheila Weller.
12) What was the last movie you saw? How was it? I believe it was Shutter Island. Leo was very good, but I'm disappointed that I was able to figure out the surprise ending long before we got there. That took a lot of the fun out of it.
13) Do YOU think you have an accent ? Where do people in your country do people speak with strong accents? No, I don't have an accent. But Southerners do.
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.
Thanks for stopping by my playground. I appreciate it. If you want to read more on All My Children, my mom and I carry on a conversation on my other blog ScuttlebuttMoTv. Good answers. I happened to notice your post right below this and your response to the support hose...I cracked up. LOL Have a wonderful Sunday :)
ReplyDeleteI didn't think I had an accent until I moved downstate. I immediately got tagged for being from the north side.
ReplyDeleteHave a great day!

Robert the Doll--that is really cool. I bet you're rockin' the support hose.
ReplyDeleteHarmon just called me. He said to tell you he's flattered. Great job! I'm about 20 minutes from the hospital I was born at...
ReplyDeleteThe salad sounds yummy! I'm going to have to go dig around in the fridge and see what I've got to throw in a salad.
ReplyDeleteHave a great Sunday!
I haven't seen Shutter Island yet. It's on my list.
