Because you people don't know nearly enough about me.

I am frustrated that I’m having to rely on a meme for blog content. (Not that there's anything wrong with a good meme, but...)

I think I’ve been eating too much candy as of late. Sadly, this, too, does not provide blog content.

I have a serious problem watching too much television lately. First True Blood, then Weeds, now Dead Like Me… and next? Six Feet Under.

I wish I was more extroverted.

I hate the telephone. Except for text messages.

I miss Edward.

I fear that I'll finally decide to hold a blog contest and no one will participate.

I hear people talking all around me as they answer phones and the same questions we hear all. Day. Long.

I smell what the Rock is cooking.

I crave potatoes. It’s a problem. I mean, it’s better than candy, but still… every night, more potatoes. I dice ‘em up and sauté ‘em in a little oil and garlic salt until they’re crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. Effing yumm.

I search for blog contest ideas, but can’t come up with anything that anyone hasn’t already done before.

I wonder if my pants will ever feel loose again.

I regret eating so much candy.

I love candy.

I ache after eating too many hot tamales.

I am not very creative or I’d come up with a better answer.

I believe in moderation. I swear. Just... not lately.

I dance if a gun is held to my head.

I sing very loudly, and very poorly, along with the radio while I’m alone in my car.

I cry when I’m angry. And during sad commercials. And sometimes when I don’t get my way. And, recently, during My Sister’s Keeper ‘cause, holy crap, that was a sad movie.

I fight the temptation to read Twilight again.

I win what? Was there a contest?

I lose my mind when I have to explain something more than twice.

I never lose my temper. (Hahahahaha. Haha. Ha.)

I always triple check the locks before I go to bed.

I confuse easily.

I listen to the TV. Constantly. It’s on in the background while I’m cooking, cleaning, on the internet. At all times except while I’m reading. Sometimes I’ll turn it off and think how nice and then wonder why I leave it on all the time.

I can usually be found at home. It’s where I’m happiest. At home reading, watching TV, baking, whatever. If it was an option, I’d never leave home.

I am scared of all insects. And mass murderers. And roller-coasters that take you upside down. And that I might still not know what I want out of life when I turn thirty.

I need solitude. And a lot of it. And yet, being around people keeps my energy up. I don’t get it.

I am happy about the upcoming fall season. Both the actual season and the television season.

I imagine what I’d do if I won the lottery. I never actually play.

I tag everyone. That's right.

  1. I love your answers on this! We are very alike in many ways. I might try this, because it looks fun, and yeah, I have nothing to blog about these days. And, if you have a giveaway, I would enter!

  4. Stephanie, I had to pop back here to ask you if you watched Vampire Diaries tonight. My daughter and I watched it. If so, what'd you think?

  5. Gayle, I hope you do the meme. I'm always interested in seeing people's answers. I haven't watched Vampire Diaries YET. Actually, the show just started 45 minutes ago (my time) and it's recording on my DVR as we speak. I was going to wait to watch it tomorrow, but I might not be able to contain my curiosity.

    L, I love that you did the meme in my comments! You're awesome (and apparently very bored at work). By the way, I need to start going BACK to Weight Watchers. Have you attended meetings before? I was successful once upon a time, but I'm afraid that in my baking obsession, I... well... lost track a little. And the candy certainly doesn't help.

    Rory, ahh, I know what you mean about needing to feel centered. Especially lately. I'm sure there's a blog post just waiting to be written about it, but the energy it would require might be a bit much right now. And... I think you just need to enjoy feeling lucky. Don't dwell on it or think it to death... just kick back with a beer and enjoy.

  8. I can relate to the rapidly-increasing poor diet choices. I keep making excuses, (I'll start dieting after I go away this weekend, after that special occasion dinner, after my fall trip to Europe, after the Holidays...) will I ever stop???I was reading your comments and responses. Have you actually tried weight watchers? I'm considering it...I miss Edward too!!

  10. Deanna, I started WW at the end of 2006 and reached my goal weight in the beginning of 2008. I lost about 60 pounds. Personally... it's the only way to go and I can't recommend it highly enough. I've been fairly successful of maintaining my goal weight. Well... lately, it's been a little harder, what with my inability to say no to candy. Sigh.

  11. Excellent. I love a meme almost as much as I love being tagged. I'm gonna pretend that by "everyone" you meant "Violet."This is a hard one, though, so don't look for it anytime soon!
