Sunday Stealing: The 5000 Question Meme, Part Three
Cheers to all of us thieves!
51. Make up a definition for the following silly words...
Fruitgoogle: Confirming how to spell "pomegranate" by plugging it into Google
Ambytime: The hour when you take your sleep meds
Asscactus: The imaginary spines that appear on any ass you long to touch but know you shouldn't. For example, in The Thorn Birds, Father Ralph should have respected the asscactus growing on young Meggie because he was a priest, after all, and shouldn't have been fixating on fondling parishioners.
52. What was the last thing you made with your own hands? The bed. I changed my sheets.
53. What was your favorite toy as a child? My Lassie Dog
54. How many TV’s are in your house? Two
55. What is your favorite thing to do outside? I enjoy long walks. They help clear my head.
56. How do you feel when you see a rainbow? I miss my best friend. We have a running joke about rainbows that stemmed from a comment I once made which he thought was stupid but I still maintain was just ill-phrased. I'd repeat it but it was a "you gotta be there" moment.
57. Have you ever dreamt a dream that came true? No. Which is unfortunate because I have had more than one revolving around either administering or receiving a massage from late-80s vintage Bruce Willis, aka "David Addison," my ultimate TV boyfriend.
58. Have you ever been to a psychic/tarot reader? Yes, indeedy.
59. What is your idea of paradise? Either administering or receiving a massage from late-80s vintage Bruce Willis, aka "David Addison," would be nice.
60. Do you believe in God and if so what is he/she/it like? I believe in God because God believes in me and He is love.
61. Do you believe in hell? Yes. But I think we make our own hell here on earth. Then, when we die, we all go to Heaven. As with Question #60, I know this to be true, like gravity, and am not interested in any discussion.
62. What one thing have you done that most people haven't? I kissed Bruce Springsteen, and even better, he kissed back.
63. What is the kindest thing you have ever done? I can't think of anything specific.
64. Have you gone to WTIT's facebook page and hit "like" yet? If not, why not? (No pressure.) Are you sure Leo asked this in the original meme?
65. What holiday should exist but doesn't? World Beatle Day. It should be observed around this time -- during the first week in April -- because in April, 1964, the Lads held the Top 5 positions of the Billboard Top 100. No artist or band has accomplished this before or since. The songs, included here only to impress Bud, were Can't Buy Me Love, Twist & Shout, She Loves You, I Want to Hold Your Hand, and Please, Please Me.
66. What holiday shouldn't exist but does? Presidents' Day. I think we should celebrate Lincoln's and Washington's birthdays individually. What the hell, they both rocked. Besides, February can be a dreary month and two days off would be nice.
67. What's the best joke you ever heard? A grandmother is watching her grandson playing on the beach. A huge wave comes and takes him out to sea. She pleads, "Please, God, save my only grandson. I will live a blameless life if only you return him to me. I beg of you, bring him back." And a big wave washes the boy back onto the beach, good as new. She looks up to Heaven and says, "He had a hat."
68. Where is the most fun place you have EVER been? Wrigley Field.
69. Is your hair natural or dyed? Yes. It's natural now, but I dyed it Lucy Riccardo red for decades.
70. Do you have any deep dark secrets or are you pretty much up front? Yes
71. What is under your bed right now? All manner of shit I probably don't need and should throw out.
72. If you were in the Land of Oz would you want to live there or go home? I think I'd stay.
73. If you drive do you frequently speed? N/A
74. What is the world's best song to dance to? The Macarena. See?
75. What song was on the last time you danced with someone? I remember dancing with my friends John and Steve to this last summer. Liquor was involved.
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.
Good answers. You certainly have a thing for Bruces. Liked the asscactus definition and the joke, also liked the ambiguity and evasiveness of the dark secrets answer. Have a great week!
ReplyDeleteWe have the identical answer to Ambytime.
ReplyDeleteLove your World Beatles Day, I totally agree--and with your President's Day answer, too.
No way- you made out with the "boss"!?
ReplyDeleteHave a great rest of your weekend!

ReplyDeleteOh, my son taught me on how to dance Macarena haha.
