Feeling Chillin'
Hearing The Who "Who Are You"...

Blah...(Crossing Eyes)

Uncrosses eyes long enough to start typing...I don't normally do these (if your a long time reader of my journal you already know that - friends still like to make the exception with me, probably because they know they'll get away with it). Then again...I'm in a strange sort of mind these days, so when Theresa from "Remembering To Exhale"(private) tagged me, it was kind of a child's thought to hide out till this had passed (sticks tongue out at Theresa). Then I got another tag from Jan "Gryphondear's Word of the Day" . Like the little insolent child I can be I stomped my feet and said no way, I'm not it! (I didn't play well with others when I was little) Guess what? I'm it! (winks)....

So without further ado, here are the rules to the game: I'm skipping the rules (laughs insanely)! The short of it is I'm suppose to answer the following questions and choose 5 more to do the same....hmmm we shall see what comes of that...

1) What were you doing 10 years ago?

Ok, I already don't like this game anymore (smirks)...10 years ago I was in an extremely violent relationship that was just starting to show it's true colors, namely mine in blood and bruises. I had been divorced from my daughter's father for over a year and worked in my ex's family printing business. I had no life, outside of working and my daughter. Ten years ago defined the worst of who I was...yes, I am being brutally honest here.

2) What are 5 things on my to-do list today?

See there is a reason you wait till the weekend to do things like this...This counts as one. 2-Spend time with Pickles (my working dog), 3-Write a few long overdue letters, 4-Dinner (I'm cheating and getting a stomboli, no cooking), 5-Watch a few movie's I picked up

3) Snacks I enjoy:

Jalapeno chips using pineapple cottage cheese for a dip (don't mock it till you've tried it).

Seedless grapes

Mariani's Dried Tropical Fruits

Granny Smith Apple Chips (Another Dried Fruit)

Ice Cream Sandwiches (the kid in me will always enjoy these)

4) What would you do if you were a billionaire?

This question honestly- I don't see anyone being able to truly answer. Money changes people...I can dream of making sure there are more shelters for women of domestic abuse. Build more shelters to take in and provide for all the strays and abused animals out there. Provide training facilities to teach people how to properly care for their animals. In the end short of giving it all up for those who need it more, what honestly would the money give me? A new home, land, security....sometimes we don't realize the smallest things we already have can be priceless....

5) Bad Habits:

Impatience, Don't sleep enough, Curse enough to make virgins ears bleed, Take forever to reply to questions in email or mail, Short fuse - temper...

6) 5 Places I've lived...

St. Petersburg Fla. and quite a few other places along the coast. I used to be a beach bum floating from one beach to another.

Binghamton, NY and now Endicott, NY

That's it 2 states to my name....

7) 5 Jobs I've had:

Waitress

Took care of plants in a nursery

Head Cook

Knitting Factory

Printer (Was the sole printer-binder for a small print company for over 14 years)

8) I can't name 5 people to which I solely wish to know about, I would love to learn about any of you who want to play along. Anyone ask I'm the one who tagged you (I used to go hide in a tree when I was it, took the other kids forever to realize I was no-where around to tag them *winks*)....

Well, who are you? (Who are you? Who, who, who, who?)
I really wanna know (Who are you? Who, who, who, who?)
Tell me, who are you? (Who are you? Who, who, who, who?)
'Cause I really wanna know (Who are you? Who, who, who, who?) / Sang by the group "The Who"

    I just can't do it myself - I think I have probably answered it all during my journal writing anyway. Still, you did a nice job with it :)

    Glad to get to know you more through your answers here, Indigo, one thing I  notice was the similarity of the answer in #5--short temper, impatience, in other jlander's entry...including mine. :-)

    Gem :-)
