Tag, I'm It

Thanks, neighbor. I think.

What I was doing ten years ago: I'd just finished my second year of law school. I spent the summer keeping up with 2 very active teenagers.....and studiously trying to ignore the growing realization I probably wasn't going to be married much longer.

5 years ago: I was taking care of Mike, who was very ill at the time, and working in my law practice. In my spare time (ha) I was making the arrangements for our wedding in NYC in the fall.

1 year ago: Same as today. Recovering from the 4th. We'd gone to my SIL's parents' house in the country, and shot off fireworks for hours. I still had a headache from all the smoke & noise the next day.

Yesterday: See previous post. I'd rather not think about it anymore.

5 snacks I enjoy:

Dark chocolate.
Homemade ice cream.
Kedem tea biscuits.
Tootsie Roll Dots.
Chocolate bonbons that my mom makes every Christmas.

5 songs I know all the words to:

I know all the words to so many songs, I couldn't begin to pick just 5. I can never remember the artists' names though.

5 Things I would do with $100 million:

Become a semi-hermit in the wilds of north-central Arkansas & spend my days yelling "Git offin my property afore I blast ye".

A semi-hermit with my own personal T-3 connection, that is.

And a beach house in Naples, Florida.

Go to the Mayo Clinic and find someone who can figure out the cause of my neuropathy.

Travel.

5 locations I would like to run away to:

Naples, Florida.
San Diego, California.
Florence, Italy.
The Keys.
My own private island off the coast of Florida.

5 bad habits I have:

Smoking.
Eating way too many sweets.
Swearing.
Chewing my lip when I'm stressed.
Saying things out loud that should stay inside my head.

5 things I like doing:

Being married.
Spending time with WildChild.
Traveling.
Reading.
Eating.

5 things I would never wear:

A thong.
A tube top.
Daisy Dukes.
Black spandex pants.
A lingerie top instead of a blouse under a suit.

5 TV shows I like:

The newest Law & Order, the one with what's her name who played Lilith on Fraser.
Mythbusters.
Scrubs.
Most things on the History Channel.
I can't think of another one. I hate most tv shows, they're stupid.

5 Biggest joys of the moment:

My family.
Getting more than 3 hours sleep, which happens way too rarely right now.
Dark chocolate.
Our silly dogs.
My car.

5 Favorite toys:

My car.
My laptop.
My S&W .357, though that's really a tool not a toy.
My tea pot.
Our ice cream freezer.

5 Next victims:

Keith
Craig, if he has time.
Joanie
Andy
Jim

So there.

Not a beach house in Naples....

THE beach house in Naples, Iron Gate.

But of course. There can be only one.

I did it, and I sent a tracback ping, but Movable Type is playing "sporadic" tricks.
