Some Fun Facts

For my historic, second post I thought I would share a few tidbits about me. You won't learn much, if anything, about what I did today. Although slightly modified, the questions or prompts are a composite of [some] getting-to-know-you email questionnaires which I have received (and enjoyed reading), but have not necessarily responded to. Please forgive me, then, if you have not received a much desired reply, and feel free to enjoy laughing at me if you feel so inclined...I understand! ;-)

From MY THREE'S:

1) 3 jobs I've had in my lifetime -
Movie Theater Employee (Concessions, Usher, Box Office, etc.), Telephone Call Operator (In-Bound, so no need to lump me with the telemarketer croud), A/R Accounting Clerk.

2) 3 shows I (do sometimes/would/have) watch(ed) - Gilmore Girls, Ghost Whisperer, Beverly Hillbillies.

3) 3 places I've been - Home, Work, School Okay, okay...Yellowstone National Park, Yosemite, Houston Astrodome.

5) 3 of my favorite foods - Lasagna, Homemade Bread, Fresh Pineapple (I'm copying my friends answers here since I would have put them in the same order, even!)

6) 3 places I'd rather be right now - (As long as my Honey and I could go together, since we are right now...) Washington D.C., Italy/France, Ireland/Scotland.

8) 3 things I'm looking forward to this year - Family Visits (both ways), David's Graduation, Thanksgiving.

  1. Good stuff!

    Are there stories to go with T-Bobb or Skittlebug?

    Wouldn't it be great if we could read and crochet at the same time? I have tried, but cannot manage it. Of course, I cannot play the piano at all, but sometimes I can find middle C - not while reading or crocheting, however.

    Why is 20 your favorite number?

    Tell about being on TV.

    Thanks for blogging!!
