Why Do You Want To Know That Meme, part three

Welcome back to Sunday Stealing which originated on WTIT: The Blog authored by Bud Weiser. Here we will steal all types of memes from every corner of the blogosphere. Our promise to you is that we will work hard to find the most interesting and intelligent memes. You may have heard the expression, “honor amongst thieves”. In that age-old tradition, we try to credit the blog that we stole it from. We also provide a link to the victim's meme in our "Previous Victims" widget. (It's our way of saying "Thanks!") Sometimes we edit the original meme, to make it more relevant to our global players, to challenge our players, to select the best questions, or simply to make it less repetitive from this new meme or recently asked questions from a previously featured meme.  Cheers to all of us thieves!!! 

Why Do You Want To Know That Meme, part three

Stolen from: Love me some surveys

50. What do you spend most of your money on?
Now this is kind of an ambiguous question.  Extra money?  Pay the bills money?  What money do you speak of?  If it's my pay the bills money, that's the mortgage.  If it's my extra money?  Depends.  Sometimes I like to pay it forward and donate it to the Indians.  Sometimes I buy clothes.  Listen, I don't have to justify myself to you.  Stop judging me! 

51. Would you rather visit the past or the future?
Neither.  There is nothing in the past that I'd like to revisit - you can't have new conversations or change things, so what's the point?  Visiting with people that are gone?  Then the grief becomes new again.  And the future?  Jesus Christmas.  The that would change how I live today, depending on what I found 

52. Favorite clothing store?
Right now?  Clothes Mentor.  Resale store.  Great stuff, not a lot of money  Bought a pair of jeans and 5-6 tops yesterday for $45.  Oh, and a Coach bag.  I'll admit it.  I'm a purse girl.  And it was $45 as well.  :)

53. What is the best advice you can give to those who are feeling down?
Hang in there - things will always get better.

54. How often do you think about your future? Does it scare you?
Live each day like it could be your last.  I don't worry about the future, or regret the past. 

55. What angers you the most?
If you read the other blog, you'd know this.  LOL  People that prey on the weak and people that fuck with my kid.  Seriously?  I will fight for them, and make your life miserable.

56. When was the last time you got majorly angry?
Not sure.  I've been angry, disappointed, and just disgusted by things - but majorly angry?  I'm not sure.

57. When was the last time you got really sad?
Two of my good friends from high school lost their mothers this week.  That makes me really sad.  And then I think of how much my son missed by not having his grandmother around and that made me sad on top of being sad.

58. Are you good at lying? 

Depends.  Do you need me to cover you for something?

59. What foreign language would you like to learn? 

None, I'm too old for that shit.

60. How many languages can you speak and what are they?
I'm quite fluent in Pig Latin, Ubu-dubbi, sarcasm and bullshit.

61. How often do you go to parties? If you don’t, what do you do instead?
Partying like rock stars are for the 20-somethings.  Or 30-somethings.  But I like to hang out with friends.  That's fun. 

62. What books do you plan to read this year?
Oh, I'm sorry - was I supposed to make a list?  What if they haven't been written yet?

63. Do you have breakfast every morning?
It may not always be before noon, but it IS the most important meal of the day!

64. Tell us a secret.
Really?  What are we?  12?

65. How many concerts have you been to?
I may stop answering these now..

66. Last hug? 

67. Who knows you better than anyone else?
Prolly Kim.

68. Baths or showers?
Considering that I only have a shower, I'd have to say those.

69. Do you think you’re ambitious? 

70. What song is stuck in your head? 

71. Countries you’ve visited?
Mexico, Canada, Ireland, Greece, UK (England), Bahamas, Virgin Islands

72. What do you most value in your friends?
That they appreciate me

73. What helps you to sleep better?
the same things that allow me to look at myself in the mirror

74. What is the most money you have ever held in your hand?
I won $1500 at a slot machine on Christmas Eve.  How's that?

75. What makes you nervous?
I'm 50.  Nothing really makes me nervous any more.  For that, I'd have to give a shit about what people think of me. 

The one where Harriet tells me to shut up!

Welcome to Saturday: 9. What we've committed to our readers is that we will post 9 questions every Saturday. Sometimes the post will have a theme, and at other times the questions will be totally unrelated. Those weeks we do "random questions," so-to-speak. We encourage you to visit other participants posts and leave a comment. Because we don't have any rules, it is your choice. We hate rules. We love memes, however, and here is today's meme!

Saturday 9: Sleigh Ride (1993)

Unfamiliar with this week's tune? Hear it here.

1) Have you ever ridden in a sleigh?

No, I've been in a horse-drawn carriage, though. On Mackinac Island - where there are no motorized vehicles allowed...  It's also where "Somewhere In Time" was filmed.  

2) This recording is from Harry Connick Jr's best-selling CD, When My Heart Finds Christmas. This year, did you add any new holiday songs to your personal collection?

Nah, should I have?  BT dubs - Harry tweeted me once.  I asked him what his "go to" music was for a relaxing, sit back, have a glass of wine kind of night.  He tweeted me back and not only can I not find the tweet now, I can't remember who he said.  Smacks self in forehead...

3) Harry was born and raised in New Orleans, a city that seldom sees snow. Have you had enough snow to shovel so far this winter? 

Surprisingly no! 

4) Speaking of weather, Harry hosted a mini-series on The Weather Channel called 100 Biggest Weather Moments. Do you frequently check The Weather Channel?

Only when there is severe weather coming.  Otherwise our local guys do the job well enough  Oh, or if I'm traveling.  I like to know what I'm heading into LOL

5) Harry's mother was a very impressive woman -- a lawyer, judge and Louisiana Supreme Court justice. Tell us about someone in your family of whom you're very proud.
My niece.  She wrote a letter to my aunt, not knowing what to expect and just wanting to get to know her family on her father's side.  That had to have been so hard, and while there are other reasons I'm SO proud of her - taking that leap of faith is #1 in my book.  :)

 6)  Happy New Year! Now that Christmas is over, are you done with holiday music and decorations? Or are you sad to see the holidays end?

Bring on 2016!  I have plans for that bitch.....

7) The New Year's Eve fireworks celebration in Sydney, Australia is famous for coordinating pyrotechnics and music. Have you ever welcomed the New Year in another country?

Nope. 

8) Do you have any New Year's Resolutions for 2016? 

See the previous post on this, my all new and improved blog :)

9) Looking back on 2015, what surprised you?

Hmmmmm.... Lots.  But really, I wasn't surprised by much. 

Happy New Year!
