MeMeMe...

Ok, so if you didn't get enough of me blabbing about myself in July, I've been tagged for another MeMeme by Nan over at Quilting in Doxie-Land (and yep, this was awhile ago -- but, well, I'm slow at responding to these things). So here it is, 4 things about me...


4 jobs I've held:

1. Migrant farm laborer. Ok -- so I wasn't so much migrating, but corn detasseling counts -- and I have the scars from the corn rash to prove it.
2. Waitress at a fast food chain pizza resturaunt. Lousy tips and don't get me started on the damage a softball team can do to a dining room.
3. Secretary to a freshman program in an academic university.
4. Indentured servant. Oh wait -- technical title was Graduate Assistant. In exchange for tuition breaks I taught freshman composition courses. On second thought, indentured servant is about right -- but I did love the teaching.

4 films I could watch over and over again:

1. The Princess Bride ("Hello, my name is Inigo Montoya, you killed my father, prepare to die")
2. The Quiet Man (John Wayne, Maureen O'Hara, 'nuff said)
3. The Wizard of Oz (I no longer hide when the wicked witch shows up -- but love this movie)
4. Star Wars (no, not going to give the "new title" -- I grew up with it being Star Wars. The first one. Forget the numbering -- and, frankly, forget the tinkering that Lucas did to it -- it's my childhood memory darn it!)
5. A host of other films -- really, I love rewatching movies. I have many favorites, these are just some of the top picks.

4 TV shows I watch:

1. House -- LOVE Huge Laurie
2. Numbers -- Rob Morrow, Judd Hirsch, the cast in this is wonderful!
3. Bionic Woman -- Ok, throwback to my childhood again, but the new show is pretty good.
4. WWE Monday Night Raw -- don't ask, I blame a friend for this.
5. Again -- a host of others -- I haven't even touched on most of the shows I watch like Miami Ink and all of the Food Network shows I watch. Not to mention Heroes, etc. I'm a TV junkie -- I freely admit this.

4 Places I've lived:

1. Utica, Michigan
2. Fairfax, Virginia
3. Chicago, Illinois
4. Cornfield County, Illinois

4 favorite foods:

1. Sushi (tuna and salmon the two favs here)
2. Chocolate (in all its many forms)
3. Bread -- really, I love crusty good fresh bread -- a bit of butter and I'm in heaven.
4. Saganaki -- flaming cheese served with crusty bread, what's not to love?

4 favorite colors:

1. Orange
2. Pink/red
3. Lime green
4. purple
5. blue
6. brown
7. yellow
8. grey
9. Anyone get the feeling that I love color and am a color slut? You should.

4 Places I would love to be right now:

1. Right where I am with my daughter and husband
2. Desert south west with my Mom
3. Paris
4. Virginia

4 names I love but would/could not use for my children:

1. Robert (um -- had a girl, so not really appropriate)
2. Carolyn
3. Catriona (was a close call there)
4. Alexandra

4 people I would love to tag:

This one has made the rounds, so I'm not going to tag anyone specifically -- if you want to do it, consider yourself it!
