Moni at Tuff Toenails went and tagged me with a “meme.” I’m not a big fan of these things, but they can help other people to get to know you a little better and I guess I should be a good sport. Besides, this way I will have yet another blog entry to post, so, if you don’t like posts with memes in them all I can think of to say to you is, “Tuff Toenails.”
I think a thing called the “7’s meme” ought to only have 7 questions in it, though. The first 7’s one I got tagged with was given to me by the missing Daveman. I took down the milk cartons on my other two blogs, but that doesn’t mean I don’t think about him or that I am not his friend or that I don’t visit his blog everyday, because I do. It just seems like it’s time to move on and hope for the best and wish him the best.
Anyway, the two questionnaires are fairly similar, the original 10 questions about 7’s were:
Name seven:
Things that scare me
Things I like most
Important things in my room (This would be on my desk)
Random facts about me
Things I plan hope to do before I die
Things I can do
Things I can’t do
Things I say most
Celeb crushes
People who will have to I hope will do this
The new questions that are different are:
Seven things that attract me to my husband:
Seven Books (or a series of books) I love:
Seven Movies I’d Watch Over and Over Again:
This makes a total of 13 unique questions, which is not even a multiple of 7, so I am changing the list to just 7 questions with 7 items each. The new list I made up is:
Name 7:
Things that scare me
Things I like most
Things I plan hope to do before I die
Things I can do
Things I can’t do
Things I say most
Books I love
I don’t want to get too personal, so all I will say to the one question is that the eyes are the most attractive and interesting thing about any person. Eyes are (dare I say it in a family oriented blog?) sexy. Eyes talk.
Since I read so many blogs in a day, I would like to see it on everybody’s but I do not have a list of people who I am tagging. Maybe someone could even add their own new questions or original memes that are things that you would like to know. Okay, on with the show.
