So It Is Written…

February 8th, 2008  | Categories: Memes

I saw this meme on Lisa’s blog and thought I’d play along. the idea is that if *you* want to play, you leave a comment indicating so in this post and I’ll respond with a set of answers, as follows…

1. I’ll respond with something random about you.
2. I’ll tell you what song/movie reminds me of you.
3. I’ll pick a flavor of jello to wrestle you in.
4. I’ll say something that only makes sense to you and me. (if possible!)
5. I’ll tell you my first memory of you.
6. I’ll tell you what animal you remind me of.
7. I’ll ask you something I’ve always wondered about you.
8. If you do this you MUST post this on yours. You MUST. It is written.

Here’s what Lisa had to say about me:

1. You take fantastic photos of Seattle!
2. “Fine Again” by Seether
3. Is there such a thing as Jamba Juice jell-o?
4. Taking photos on the bridge in Mt. Rainer Park is a fantastic spot.
5. Your very cool motorcycle.
6. A cougar
7. How long have you been doing theater?

To answer her question #7, I think I’ve done theater for nearly 15 years now. Strictly community theater stuff mind you but it’s still been fun. I’m not too involved with anything at the moment, so perhaps the season for theater has passed. Who knows?

So, if you want to play just say so in a comment!

Here are my responses…

Stacy

  1. I like reading posts about your dogs
  2. “The Pina Colada Song (Escape)” by Rupert Holmes
  3. How many jello shooters would it take to wrestle in?
  4. You never did use that artwork I sent you!
  5. I remember after stumbling over your blog thinking that you were someone who seemed very open and honest about in your posts, telling it like it is good and bad alike
  6. Well, it’s going to have to be dogs because you love yours so much!
  7. Have you ever though about living someplace else in the US?

Marianna

  1. Stress will kill you, relax!
  2. “My Big Fat Greek Wedding” of course!
  3. It doesn’t matter what flavor, you’d worry about the mess! ;-)
  4. Did it ever occur to you that wild animals might wee on blackberry bushes?
  5. Not my first memory, but I will always remember your grand adventure cross-country with John to Seattle and the text messages and photos you sent on the way!
  6. Ducks, because we had so much fun photographing them with Leesa at the Arboretum
  7. Why are you obsessed with David Hasselhoff?!

Shephard

  1. I wish I had a fraction of your interior design talent!
  2. “First of Me” by Hoobastank, because it’s about being yourself even when pressured to conform to the world’s expectations
  3. I think you’re more of a Chocolate Cherry Fudge pudding kind of guy…
  4. Don’t shatter my gruff, biker stereotype by giving up some of the songs in my collection ;-)
  5. I don’t remember the exact post, but I recall reading your blog and being impressed at how confident and open you were about who you are
  6. Penguins of course!
  7. Where do you and B plan to retire to?

Stacie

  1. I like your quirky sense of humor!
  2. The movie “GI Jane”… just because you’re a woman who refuses to be shoved into a box defined by your gender and while you admit to your fears, you fight them anyway.
  3. I’m not sure I’d want to wrestle you in any flavor of jello, you might hurt me!
  4. It’s nice that you can relate to why I like the Pacific Northwest so much!
  5. I’m sure it had something to do with you threatening to kick my ass!
  6. Frogs and turtles, since you’ve posted so many photos of them!
  7. Does DH know you kayak topless?! ;-)

    I’m working on these, but I probably won’t post them until tomorrow. The kids were over this weekend and between that and playing with my new Macbook, I goofed off most of the weekend… ;-)

    Um… why is your blog set on East Coast time? It says I posted at 10:45pm. Did you move, or are you just living in the future?
