I am not sure if I am very creative but I accept all awards that begin with the letter K therefore I must accept and comply. I have answered the 10 questions of Hercules (God, I realized I missed the Monday Minute more than I thought) and while some have answered these with much thought and reverence...you can pretty much tell that did not factor in for me. Then I gave up 10 random things that were safe to divulge to the interwebz. And finally passed this award on to 7 much more deserving folks. I guess I used up my three wishes so all you genies stay put in your bottle!
Thanks Nick for the fun that was the A-Z and for this nice award. Sorry it took so long to get this post up! Any of you who have not stopped by Nick's blog, please give him a visit...I think he's a pretty smart guy and knows a few things about writing.
What is your favorite song?
This varies constantly, but today it's Webb Wilder's Tough It Out. It rocks and makes a strong statement...two good motivators. Crank it!
What is your favorite dessert? Mojave? No wait, you were looking for food right? Okay, a quality cheesecake.
What ticks you off? Doesn't Off keeps ticks away?? Yeah that's it...oh and stupid people.
When you're upset what do you do? I think Sublime said it best in their Two Joints song :) Just kidding...now I take Pepto Bismol.
Which is/was your favorite pet? My two wacko BT's...Caesar and Cornelia...except today Cornelia wins out since Caesar decided to pee on the carpet for no reason!
Which do you prefer to wear, black or white? In this age of political correctness I actually prefer both...sometimes Oreo and sometimes reverse Oreo.
What is your biggest fear? Not aging like a fine wine but rather like an old melon.
What is your attitude mostly? Superior...with a hint of humble. Just the right amount.
What is perfection? A 3000 score on Hundred Pin bowling on the Wii. Yes, I did it.
What is your guilty pleasure? Coming home early from work just coz I want to.
Ten Random Things
1. I took sax and piano lessons as a kid...can't play either one today!
2. My first drunk was as a sophomore/junior in high school...On Boones Farm Strawberry Hill!!
3. I shared a trailer home with 3 buddies back in the late 70's...when we moved out it was destroyed.
4. I bought a monkey's foot at a voodoo shop on Bourbon St.
5. I have played golf at the base of Mt Shasta in California...not well, but I played.
6. I owned a Pinto wagon...it was sweet!
7. A congenital defect in my right knee kept me out of Phys-ed and all school sports after 8th grade. On the bright side I was a member of the chess team!
8. When I was a baby my mother found a black snake curled up in my bassinet. (My dad being a camp director caused us to spend every summer at camp from the time I was born).
9. When the first year Mazda Miatas came out I bought one and it was the most fun car ever. I felt like James Bond driving it. Always parked inside. Never driven in the rain. And when I sold it 17 years later it still had less than 60,000 miles on it.
10. While in Mexico 4 years ago I bought a bottle of absinthe. I have yet to open it. Anyone want to join me in seeing the green fairies?
The seven charmed ones...
Nancy Thompson (my AIC partner in crime)
Sue H. (your stories are the best!)
Sarah (unbelievably unabashed and real)
Cowgirl (just coz she'll hate it!)
Milo (I have two of your works on my Kindle to read)
Crack You Whip (always entertaining and visual)
Chiz (somehow his LSD oozed into my blog so I had to)
Now get to work and share the dirt!
