The one where I get tagged...

So I don't know if every one's blogger is acting all wonky or if its just mine. It will let me read blogs but every time I go to comment it takes me to blogger's sign in page and even after I sign in it continues to say "anonymous" on my comment and won't post it anyway. So I give up. I have tons of comments for every one's blog but blogger is eating them. I don't know if it will even let anyone comment on this blog but I'm going to write it anyway. So take that Blogger! In your face!


I. Got. Tagged.  I guess that makes me "It". Thank you to Lisa Hollar over at Jezri's Nightmares for tagging me. Being tagged makes me feel loved. I don't care if you think that's silly, it does. If you haven't checked out Lisa's blog, you definitely should. You especially should if you like short horror stories and poems that she's nice enough to post for free. And if you like those, you can purchase her short stories and poetry collections on Smashwords or Amazon. Or you can win her Sunday contest, where you have to write a story in 55 words or less, like I did, and she'll give you one of her ebooks for free and let you judge next week's contest. I'm warning you, its hard and there's some good competition.


So I have to answer the questions and then tag some other peeps. Here are the questions:


If you could go back in time and relive one moment, what would it be?
This one is really really hard. One moment would be right after our wedding ceremony, when Mike & I were standing alone in the vestibule of the church and my sister (maid of honor) & my cousin (best man) were walking back down the aisle. The photographer (Mike's aunt) snapped a photo of us and I have never seen two people look more happy. Ever.

But I often wish I could go back and relive certain days. The birth of each of my children. Although those were physically painful, the moment you look at each new baby is priceless. Or even just a regular day when my kids were little. I'd just like to look at their sweet pudgy faces and snuggle their toddler selves again.
If you could go back in time and change one thing, what would it be?
 I often think I'd like to go back and change things I've said or actions I'm not very proud of having taken. But I firmly believe everything happens for a reason and every single thing that I've done or had happen to me has made me who I am. And I wouldn't change any of that. I like who I am and I love the people who are my family. I'm going to quote the group Hinder here (Luke, stop groaning!)

"If I could go back in time,
wouldn't change a damn thing in my life.
I love the dumb things we do when we're young.
But the best is yet to come."
What movie/TV character do you most resemble in personality?
 This one's a hard one. I had a friend who used to say I was Grace from Will & Grace. I like to think I'm slightly more mature now. So I don't really know. But I'd like to grow up to be the totally cool mother on Parenthood. Bonnie Bedelia's character. She's artsy and creative, but wise.
If you could push one person off a cliff and get away with it, who would it be?
 I wouldn't for two reasons. The first- if I dislike someone enough to want to push them off a cliff, then that's just to quick of a way to go. I want them to suffer some. The second reason is because I believe in Karma. And it's a whopping number of bad Karma points to kill someone. I don't need that kind of negative luck!
Name one habit you want to change in yourself.
 My inability to say "no". If someone asks me to help them, I invariably say "yes" regardless of whether I really wanted to or not. As a result I end up with too many things on my plate at one time. 
Describe yourself in one word.
Talkative. Its what my school report cards always said. And not in a good way.
Describe the person who named you in this meme in one word.
 Talented.
Why do you blog? (In one sentence):
To keep myself sane. All these thoughts have to go somewhere, right?
And the people I'm blog tagging are:
Elly at Bugginword (because pregnant women love to play games)
Peggy at Square Peg in a Round Hole (because she's one of my favorite people)
Yvonne Bishop at The Angelic (one of my new bosses)
Heather Welch at Welch Happenings (she needs a break from crocheting)
Claudia Lefeve at Claudia Lefeve's Blog (because I want to know!)

Now you all are it! Nanny nanny boo boo!

The one where I play a game...

So I'm sitting here this morning in a very bad mood. It's not important why, it's just the normal usual crap around my house that irritates and annoys. And then I log in and see that I lost a follower?! The hell?! Who are you and where did you go? Better yet, why did you go? Am I losing my edge? Did your ridiculous conversation meter fill up? WWWWHHHHYYYY?! It's ridiculous how badly my ego is tied to this blog. I take your defection personally, you know. But fine, whatever, I don't need you. Yes, yes I do. Please come back. Or someone new, please take that empty chair!

Anywho, on a calmer note, being in a bad mood is not helping me write a blog. I don't want to write a bitchy ass blog because well, that's not what I do and it's not what you come hear to read. Besides, by tomorrow (okay, probably by the time I shower) I will be over it and then I would feel badly if I had written it down, especially in a public forum. Just suffice it to say my husband's job takes up way too much of his time. Do you hear that Boy Scout peeps who read this blog??! No one should have to work 24/7 (and ignore his wife) on the piddly ass salary he does. If you're going to require complete devotion, back breaking physical labor, and the 110% that he gives you, you should probably pay more so that he can assuage my anger with money. It wouldn't help on the him having no time part, but it would help because I would travel more so I wouldn't be home to care.

So I decided to do this fun little game that Kenzie over at The Unabridged Girl tagged me for. It's about your handwriting. Everyone seems to hate their handwriting. I don't. I like mine. I had this 5th grade teacher who actually made us practice penmanship. We had to fill whole pages with these writing exercises. I hated it! But now I can thank her, because hey, you can read my writing! I'm not sure what the purpose of this game is exactly, but it was cute and fun. Of course, if any handwriting experts read it, I may be in trouble. I'm sure my handwriting screams "psycho". Lol.

So the rules were:

Write down the following, snap a picture (or scan the document), post it, and tag others.

1. Name/Blog Name.
2. Right handed, left handed or both?
3. Favorite letters to write?
4. Least favorite letters to write?
5. Write: The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog.
6. Write in caps:
CRAB
HUMOR
KALEIDOSCOPE
PAJAMAS
GAZILLION
7. Favorite song lyrics?
8. Tag some lovely bloggers.
9. Any special note or drawing?




TGIF,
