It's Random Tuesday..
and I'm actually posting a fun, random list today!
I've been a Random Tuesday slacker, what with all the busy-ness of last week and the fact that I was posting at really weird times of the day (like at 11 a.m, times like that; I really like to post early in the morning so I can catch everyone from daybreak on. Ha!)
Anyway...I'm back on here this Tuesday and I have a fun one for all of us to participate in. (You know you want to!)
This one goes something like this. Come up with three answers in each category. Easy!
Three..
Things I fear: Heights, snakes, something bad happening to a close relative
People who make me laugh: Sydney, the gals on “Designing Women” (caught this show on tv just the other day and reminded me of how funny it was/is!), Ellen Degeneres
Things I love: Really good food, family, traveling
Things I hate: Negative people, mayonnaise, unmade beds
Things I don't understand: Why people get upset about little things that don’t really matter in the grand scheme of things, Why people care about Paris Hilton, Teenagers
Things on my desk: A computer, picture frames with pics of the girls in them, lots of paper
Things I'm doing right now:(actually, I typed this last night around midnight) Typing, thinking I should really go to sleep, eating a toasted croissant topped with Nutella (it is SO yummy you can't even imagine!!)
Things I want to do before I die: Travel as much as possible, write a novel, make a Difference with a capital D!
Shows I watched as a kid: Electric Company, Three’s Company (I still think that John Ritter was one of the funniest guys ever!), Wonder Woman (I WANTED to be her!!)
Things I think you should listen to: That voice inside your head (because usually it’s right), The stories that you hear from older people, the laughter of children (they know what it’s all about!), the Bee Gees (ok, I know that’s four, but I was listening to some of them lately and how much do I still love them?)
Things you should NEVER listen to: Negative people, gossip (although I do fall into its trap a lot of times!), anything that's on tv at like 3 a.m.
Things I'd like to learn: To paint (canvases, not houses), to catch a softball (so I could catch Delaney pitching), to play a musical instrument
Favorite foods: Anything Southern, Anything Italian, and pretty much Anything Else!
Things I can't do: Roll my rrrrrrrs, curl my tongue, watch sitcoms or reality shows when people do embarrassing things or get in uncomfortable situations (I just can’t watch them because I feel so bad for them!)
Things I can do: Stand on my head for an inordinate amount of time, find the positive in just about anything, speak in public, hula hoop (oops that's four, but I think you needed to know I could hula hoop. Didn't you?)
So, you know the drill...
Answer these here in my comments section or link us to your blog where you've posted your answers. This is a FUN one, so I'd love to see some answers from all of you! (But no pressure, okay? lol)
