Motherwise Cracks

Joeprah (love that name) tagged me and I decided to comply because he loves BUFFALO WINGS and we all know that warms anyone from Buffalo right up. Here are my tens:

1. What were you doing ten years ago?

While the kids were all finally in school, I was working part-time at a TV station, and not just any TV station. It was public access – yes, I was doing Wayne’ s World. Fun at first, but gets old. I left my audio cables and promo spots and decided to freelance with my special skills honed at the public access station. I am quite a success now.

2. What were you doing one year ago?

Pretty much what I do now but I was skinnier then. Looking back, I was skinnier almost every year so I spend a lot of time reminiscing and avoiding mirrors now.

3. What are five snacks you enjoy?

Dark chocolate, chocolate cake, brownies, chocolate chip cookies and Buffalo wings. (Fat and sugar are my two favorite food groups.)

4. What are five songs you know the lyrics to?

1. Circle Game by Joni Mitchell – …And the seasons they go round and round, and the painted ponies go up and down. We’re captive on a carousel of time. We can’t return we can only look behind from where we came…

2. Good Mother by Jann Arden – …I got money in my pocket, I like the color of my hair. I got a friend who loves me, got a house, I got a car. I got a good mother and her voice is what keeps me here…

3. No Such Thing by John Mayer – …I want to run through the halls of my high school, I want to scream at the top of my lungs. I just found out there’s no such thing as the real world, just a lie you got to rise above…

4. Home Fires Burning by Ronnie Milsap – …She keeps the home fires burning, While I’m out earning a living in a world that’s known for its pouring rain.She keeps the homefires burning, Ooh and it’s her warm loving that keeps me returning again and again…

5. Be Yourself by Audioslave – …Someone falls to pieces sleeping all alone, someone kills the pain, spinning in the silence, to finally drift away, someone gets excited in a chapel yard, catches a bouquet, another lays a dozen white roses on a grave. To be yourself is all that you can do…

5. Five Things You Would Do If You Were A Millionaire

1. Help kids in my community get a college or some type of further education

2. Pay off all my debts

3. Build a complete family compound and have all my relatives be my neighbors

4. Have my own personal trainer

5. buy a home on an island in Canada on Stoney Lake

6. Five Bad Habits

Eating too much, being too blunt, too impulsive, laughing at inappropriate times, sarcasm

7. Five Things You Like To Do

8. Five Things You Would Never Wear

A thong, a girdle, go-go boots, stretch pants, implants

9. Five Favorite Toys

10. Five Things You Hate To Do

So that’s it. I am pretty boring but Joe asked so, like I tell the kids, you get what you asked for.
