A set of random questions:

1. What’s your favorite ice cream flavor?
Jamoca Almond Fudge...yummm

2. What shampoo do you use?
Whatever’s available. Right now it’s a purple container. Suave Volumizer, I think. It works well and it’s cheap.

3. How do you like your eggs?
Usually scrambled because it’s easiest, but I really like em fried over-medium....

4. What’s the first thing you do when you get online?
Check my email.

5. What is your favorite tv show?
All-time? Arrested Development. I’m looking forward to 24 coming back one day soon, but I can watch The Office reruns every day.

6. Which do you prefer, the sunrise or the sunset?
The sunset. The sunrise usually comes to early. And nowadays, the only reason I’d see a sunrise is because I’m on my way to work.

7. When is the last time you went to the mall?
Last Saturday to kill time before going to my niece’s birthday party.

8. What was the last food that you ate?
The leftover sausage, mushroom, black olive pizza from Tacoma’s Engine House

9. What is your favorite animal?
My chihuahuas ~ Mahal & Prada. When they’re not constantly barking or running out the door when we’re not looking.

10. Do you collect anything?
LoL... cats & chihuahuas, apparently. Oh, and Webkins. I have

Paddy the Google, Penny the Pig, Diner the Black Bear, Budweiser the Clydesdale, Moo Baca the Cow, Adelaide the Koala & Rainier the Raccoon.

I have a pink poodle, but my cunning & dynamic sister-in-law Phedre is holding her hostage. Poor Cerise...

till next time....

1. Some relationships are meant to serve a certain purpose, and once that purpose is met, will find it’s natural end.

2. Van Halen is the last concert I saw; it was in December last year. Loud but entertaining. While it’s not my favorite music, Eddie, Alex & Wolfgang are amazing musicians. David Lee Roth? Not so much.

3. Spring should be a lot warmer than it’s been. Big fat snowflakes so not allowed!.

4. Oh no! I forgot to pick up my contacts this week. Oops!

5. I’ve recently started counseling retiring members over the phone and in person at work. I’m almost done with my 1 year training program as a retirement services analyst and it’s been fun finally applying what I’ve been learning. Sometimes it’s like taking a pop quiz or playing reverse Jeopardy.

6. All my pets make me happy, but Prada’s eager, almost maniacal, welcome home never fails to make me smile.

7. And as for the weekend, tonight I’m looking forward to relaxing and being lazy, tomorrow my plans include going to the optician and picking up my contacts (doh!) and Sunday, I want to start chipping away at the guest room and home office before Samantha starts spring cleaning this week. Things disappear permanently when Sam spring cleans. Okay, maybe not permanently. Maybe just for a year or two before I locate the logical spots she finds for our clutter.

What is a meme?

I always thought these surveys were called "Memes" because they were "about me"...hence me..me. But it's not pronounced "mimi"...it's "Meme" that rhymes with dream. And apparently, without the long Darwinian explanation, it's an idea that can replicate and evolve, like a gene.
