Sunday Stealing: The Plaid Hat Meme
Cheers to all of us thieves!
1. When showering, do you start the water and then get in, or get in then start the water? Get in and then start.
2. Have you ever showered with someone of the opposite sex? No. Bathed, yes.
3. Were you ever been forced to shower with one of your siblings? My sister is a year older than I am, and my mom bathed us together until we wouldn't both fit in the tub together. I hated it.
4. Have you ever dropped your soap on your foot? Something tells me this question is not as it seems ...
5. How old do people say you look? About 40. And I'll take it.
6. How old do you act? Sometimes older than Methuselah, sometimes 16.
7. What’s the last song you sang? "The Locomotion."
8. Have you recently become a member of anything? No.
9. What are your plans for next weekend? Well, I know I'm getting my hair cut. Beyond that, I don't know. It feels like a lifetime away.
10. Do you kiss with your eyes open or closed? Depends on who I'm kissing and why.
11. Whats the sexiest thing about Sarah Palin? Levi Johnston
12. Who’s the sexiest famous woman alive? I have no idea. Though many men do seem fond of Pippa Middleton these days.
13. Who’s the sexiest famous man alive? According to PEOPLE magazine, Ryan Reynolds. That cover shot does make me wonder what Scarlett is thinking ...
14. Does your family have a crazy uncle? Yup. Part of why I was obsessed with the Casey Anthony trial is that I found it comforting to see a family wackier than mine.
15. Have you ever smuggled something into another country? No. But if I did, I'm pretty sure I wouldn't confess it here.
16. Do you live in a city with a good sports team? As a loyal Cub fan, I find that question hurtful and offensive.
17. What is the most unusual? Huh?
18. How do feel about the Goth people? They make me wish I got a cut of the eyeliner concession at Sephora.
19. Can you fix or your significant other your own car? I have neither a significant other, nor a car.
20. Would you want to kill Casey Anthony yourself if you were guaranteed to get away with it? Of course not.
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.

Saturday 9
Saturday 9: Against All Odds
1. Have you ever tried to rekindle a past relationship against the odds? No. When it's over, it's over. Though there is one gentleman I get wistful about from time to time ... sigh ...
2. Do you like your job, or daily routine? I enjoy writing and I like my client. The company I work for? Eh. But yes, I like my job.
3. Do you find time to 'smell the flowers' so to speak? Yes.
4. Do you have any problems thinking of things to write about in my blog? Why would I write in your blog?
5. Do others consider you well organized? Ha! See post below.
6. Do you always have a “Plan B” just in case? Yes. ALWAYS.
7. How do you find yourself adjusting to new situations? Depends on the situation. Professionally I can just roll with it because I'm more confident there. Personally, I'm often a basket case.
8. Are you happy with where you are in this point of your life? Yes.
9. Do you find the aging process we all go through easy or difficult? It's hell.
