My First Meme

Apparently, there's this blog phenom called "meme"- a bunch of random questions of varying types designed to reveal a blogger's innermost feelings, or something like that. You get tagged by a fellow blogger and have to post your own answers to your blog. No one has tagged me, but I'm gonna start it today.

I tag Hardcore Doug and MattV.

Here are my responses.

~What were three of the stupidest things you have done in your life?
* Getting a somewhat meaningless tattoo on my shoulder blade when I was 18 - it made me choose a different wedding dress so I could hide it.
* Moving out of my dad's house and into my mom's when I was 15.
* Picking up that first cigarette. Luckily, I put down the last one many moons ago.

~At the current moment, who has the most influence in your life?
* My future kids. Sounds corny, but almost every decision I've made in the past few years is based on my desire to be a stay at home mother when we have a baby. I changed my college major to something more geared toward working from home, and I have stayed with a less than perfect job because of the pay, insurance, and ability to work from home in the near future.

~If you were given a time machine that functioned, and you were allowed to only pick up to five people to dine with, who would you pick?
* Albert Einstein - The man was a kooky genius with crazy hair. What's not to love?
* William Shakespeare - "Doubt thou the stars are fire, but never doubt I love." 'Nuf said.
* Jesus - To find out just exactly how screwed up his original messages have become by his present day so-called followers, and to see if he really did get married and have kids.
* Benjamin Franklin - Inventor and founding father. I'd ask him what he thinks about the way our country has evolved.
* Tie for fifth place - Buddha or Leonardo da Vinci.

~If you had three wishes that were not supernatural, what would they be?
* To be proficient in Spanish and German
* To be strong and physically fit (ok, and skinnier)
* To not need contact lenses anymore

I'M ADDING THIS QUESTION, BECAUSE WHO DOESN'T HAVE THEM?
~If you had three wishes that were supernatural, what would they be?
* The ability to communicate with animals
* The ability to mentally project and see events unfold miles away
* The ability to read thoughts without being detected

~Name two things you regret your city not having, and two things people should avoid.
* A good nightclub that doesn't allow teenagers or gangsta thugs
* More non-smoking bars

* The north side - ghetto trash
* The west side - trailer trash

~Name one thing that has changed your life.
* Meeting my man and getting married.

My brain is full of random crap.

I wish you could empty your brain's cache once in a while. I have such a bunch of useless junk inside my head that I wonder if it takes up valuable space for knowledge I could be using.

Examples:

Bovine spongiform encephalopathy is more commonly known as mad cow disease. The disease takes hold in the central nervous system of cows- the brain and spinal cord.

The longest word in the English language is pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicovolcanoconiosis. It is a made up word for a lung disorder of people who have inhaled microscopic particles.

If you've watched The Sopranos with any regularity, you've likely heard of RICO statutes. The Racketeer-Influenced and Corrupt Organizations act is a set of federal laws used to prosecute organized crime.

I have over 20 GB of music at home and at work, and I know the lyrics to almost every song, including the Spanish ones.

Salt does not dissolve in oil.

Googleness

I've read on a couple of blogs about this, so I tried it on myself. You go to Google and enter your first name plus the word "needs" in quotes. Here are my results.

Jennifer first needs to be made comfortable with the tension and conflicts. Jennifer needs an adviser with exceptional listening skills.

But the competition is getting tougher, so Jennifer needs to keep on improving.

Allow Jennifer additional time to complete the assignments.

But if the people are emotionally needy, then Jennifer needs space. Jennifer can march to the beat of a different drummer.

Jen needs this Diva Publicity like she needs a hole in the head!

Jennifer needs a thorough psychiatric evaluation.

Jennifer needs a smack daddy.

Jennifer needs a cold shower. Jennifer works at a strip club in Nevada.

What have these women been doing with our name???

Good grief.

What kind of killer are you?

You are an assassin.
That means you are a proffessional and do your
job without mixing any emotions in it. In your
life you have probably been hurt many times and
have gotten some mental scars. This results in
you being distant from people. Though many
think that you are evil, you are not. What you
really are is a person, trying to forget your
pain and past. You are the person who never
seems to care and that is why being an assassin
fits you good. Atleast, that's what people
think. Even if you don't care that much for
your victims, you still have the ability to
care and to generally feel. It is not lost,
just a little forgotten. In crowds you tend to
not get to noticed, and dress in black or other
discrete colours. You don't being in the
spotlight and wish people would just leave you
alone. But once you do get close to someone you
have a hard time letting go and get real down
if you loose him/her.
