(Quick rant – I HATE HATE HATE Internet Explorer. Freaking thing ALWAYS crashes as soon as I am trying to do something….as soon as I get a better computer, I am going back to Netscape or Mozilla. Hurumphhh!)
Monday Mission 2.11
1. As a child, did you ever wish you had a different name, maybe a name you wish your parents had chosen? To what would change it if you could?
I used to DEFINITELY wish I had a different name. Once, I told one of my teachers that I would like to be called “Emily,” because this was what my family called me as a nickname. (not!) lmao.
2. What skill have you been wanting to learn but have just kept putting off?
Lots of things. PHP, MySQL, knitting (although I CAN crochet), crewel, and probably some other things that I can’t think of right now.
3. Are there there any regional foods you love but just can’t get where you are living now? (burger chain, ice cream shop, etc. that was in your hometown but has no locations where you are today)
Red Lobster. There used to be one here that I could get to, but it has since moved. I love seafood of almost any kind, especialy after growing up in Maryland, land of the Blue Crabs. (mmmmmmmm)
4. What recreational activity would you take up if you had the time and/or money?
Probably sailing. I love being out on the water.
5. What’s the biggest lie you’ve ever told? Has anybody ever found out?
HA!! Now WHY in the world would I put that up here? Nope, sorry….it’s pretty bad, and I am not currently over the shame of it. =( But, yes, it was found out.
6. What was your favorite Saturday morning cartoon when you were growing up?
He-man! And Tom & Jerry, and Thundercats, and Superfriends, and the Smurfs.
7. Let’s say one of your relatives slipped you a $100 bill, to help you out for the month. Your significant other didn’t see it, would you tell them or keep it to yourself?
Depends on the relationship. If I would have to use the relationship I am in right now, well, hell, neither one of us tell the other any damn thing, so I would have to say no.
BONUS: Whatever happened to Saturday night?
[EDIT 11:15 pm] HAH! I finally remembered to look for the words….
Whatever happened to Saturday night?
When you dressed up sharp and you felt alright?
It don’t seem the same since cosmic light
Came into my life, I thought I was divine.
I used to go for a ride with a chick who’d go,
And listen to the music on the radio;
A saxophone was blowin’ in a rock ‘n roll show.
You climbed in the back seat, you really had a good time.
Hot patootie, bless my soul, I really love that rock ‘n roll.
OK, I could go on, but you get the gist. Rocky Horror. Meatloaf. Enough said. I used to stage manage and prop handle for a Rocky Horror “fan production” in Boston. You know, the people who act out what’s on the screen in front of you as you are watching the movie? yeah. Those were the days. *sigh*[/EDIT]
