The "Other" SJ's Blogging Brilliance

On a wild trip through the black holes of the internet a few months back I discovered another SJ. As you may know she and I have been enjoying reading one another's blogs, as well as discovering the similarities between one another. Today she posted a wonderful little blogging assignment, that inspired me to follow in her footsteps.


I am...
A strong willed independent woman, who cherishes my friends, family and cats.


I want....
Do you want the short list or the long list? A never ending supply of wonderful books to read, all the cool technology gadgets, and all the money that I want to give to all sorts of great organizations and causes, to earn my Ph.D


I have
An amazing life, an amazing family, amazing friends, a great guy in my life, the best cats, a wonderful job, and my dream house.


I wish...
That every day I could get through all of my "to-do" list, that every week had a three day weekend, and that my house cleaned itself.


I hate...
Olives, slow internet, bad windshield wipers.

I fear...
That my computer will take over my life! No just kidding, honestly I fear drowning.


I hear...
The Music Man talking on the phone with family, frogs chirping, thoughts running in my mind.

I search...
Google and Wikipedia all the time for instant gratification for the answers to the questions that I need/want to know. (Thanks SJ!)

I wonder...
Why you all want to read my answers to these questions, what ever happened to Amelia Earhart, when will I get my very own iPhone, will I ever sell my car and get a Yaris?

I regret...
Not returning phone calls in a more timely manner, being a poor speller, not backing up my laptop and loosing all of my pictures (including Aimil's graduation pictures).


I love...
My great life, my family, friends, cats, taking pictures of my feet, and my positive outlook on life


I ache...
From all of the strawberry and pea picking that I have been doing over the last few days.

I always...
Have my laptop and camera with me and carry more "just in case" stuff in my backpack than I really need.


I usually...
Talk to my mother daily, have a book with me, can be reached by phone, wear contacts

I am not...
Going to regret things in life, or going to eat chicken feet

I dance...
Only when I am drunk

I sing...
In the car when I'm alone

I never....
Want to know life without the supportive network of friends and family that I have.

I rarely...
Misplace objects (even though my cell phone voicemail message says I must have lost my phone), go a day without checking my email, talking to my Mom.

I cry....
Oh let's not go there again..... life is getting better!

I am not always
Going to remember the words to a song but I can remember all sorts of other things.

I lose...
Nothing

I'm confused...
For short periods of time until I can think it through

I miss...
The Simmons Gals, take-out food delivery, Sterling

I need...
Time to myself everyday to "re-charge" the batteries, a few bits of ice cream every day, more time in the day, and more sleep

I should...
Follow Miss Martha's house cleaning advice - my switch plates are being neglected.

How fun was this? I loved doing it. When you're done cleaning your house perhaps you can give me all the Martha tips...I don't think I've ever cleaned my switch plates.

I love ice cream too and wish I could eat it more often!
