Stolen from Sunday Stealing and in their words:
"This week's questions come from Do These Shoes Match This Purse? Maggie doesn't say where she got it, but it was probably stolen there as well."
What is your ring size? depends on the time of day - it's six, usually.
How often do you wear jewelry? I wear my little bits and pieces every day - small earrings, a special ring for my departed darlings, wedding band, couple of silver ones(one with a tiny turquoise) etc. Though I sometimes make it for others as gifts, I'm a very plain Jane about wearing it.
When was the last time you consumed alcohol?
Mother's Day. Big mistake. And, though I love Margaritas, it won't happen again.
Any big plans for the summer? Kids coming. And, we will remodel the shade patio and replace the cover. We also do Beach stuff. We live in a tourist trap.
What is your favorite comfort food? Potato chips. Love the things.
Do you prefer broccoli or asparagus? I actually prefer both! Asparagus has to be fresh so only in Spring do we get any of it. Sad. :-(
What color are your bedroom walls? They are dark green, leaf green but dark, like a forest. There are trees on the drapes that I made for in there. I love it!
With whom do you live? Hubby, doggie, torts, ghosts- hehe.
Which Star Wars movie is your favorite? The first one.
How about Harry Potter? Our BIL gave us all his extra copies of them when he got blu-rays. I guess I really like the first few. But then, all that silly broom flight in "games" just didn't turn me on.
What was the last movie you saw in theaters? It has been ages and I just don't remember the title.
Did you get the popcorn or candy? I've never had good popcorn at theaters. For that, I go to the Zoo. They have good popcorn.
What is the most romantic text in your inbox? Huh? "Should I buy those Chips you like?" That's love, true love.
Have you ever played miniature golf on a date? Yes, I actually hated golf but love miniature golf. I like Pitch and Putt, too.
What’s a phrase you overuse? I probably over use, "Patak!" or maybe, " Merde!" under my breath. When I get really mad I say, "Frack!"
Do you always use good grammar? I always try but I'm slipping a bit in my dotage, besides, the rules seem to be changing. Why do we not still say, "It was she." instead of saying, "It was her." ???? Even the Brits are doing it!
Do you have an accent or a speech impediment? No, but I can understand most people talking to me and in films, even Scots if you can believe it. I love accents, and wish I had a very nice South African one -or perhaps one from New Zealand. Of course, Aussie accents just make Americans crazy. I love that one, too.
What did you eat today? I had a scrambled egg burrito, and then for lunch, some organic apple sauce. This is another strange day for me.
What do you do at work? I don't work anymore.
Do you know the rules to any sports? Let's see: I know the rules for volleyball, badminton, soccer, tennis, basketball, baseball, and American football.
Do you prefer to watch or play sports? Alas, I can no longer play. I only watch tennis, soccer and basketball if I get a chance to see them while walking on the treads.
What is your favorite kind of hat to wear? I love straw hats, decorated with flowers or shells.
Do you pray? Yes I do, often.
To whom do you pray? to God, in the form of the Heavenly Father, the Angels, St. Michael, the Great Spirit. Actually I may just be praying to whomever may be listening to me, I suppose. Demons? Be careful what you ask for!
Here is my favorite Guido Reni.
What is the closest mountain to your house? It's a toss up between Mt. Laguna and Mt. Miguel. Mt. Miguel is/was my favorite one before it sprouted all sorts of towers. Now it's ugly. There should be a law against defacing sacred mountains, imho! *smooths feathers back down*
There are two other pretenders to mountainhood that are closer, one of which I do love a lot, too.
What size engine is in your vehicle? It's a 6 cylinder putt putt.

One of our local ski mountains has sprouted a windmill farm. I try to think of them as art-like.
ReplyDeleteI thought I was the only one who said "merde!" outside of French people.
ReplyDeleteKwizgiver, I'm trying hard to love them more, too. Indeed, they are more artlike than the freak "firs" and "palm" trees that sprout up here and there, as well as those darn microwave thingas.
ReplyDeleteThecheesewhines, oh it is a marvelous little word. I giggle every time someone uses it in a movie, e.g., in "Moon over Parador" when the imposter Dictator's returning Mother, who is obviously a drag queen, announces on the stair case, "Merde to Love!"
