Meme Me

I don't often do memes, but what the heck, I haven't posted in a while, and if it's good enough for Darrin, it's good enough for me.

1. Do you like blue cheese?

Mmmmmmmm.... Is there anything better than chunks of blue cheese on a nice, medium-rare steak? This bald man doesn't think so.

2. Have you ever smoked heroin?

Uh... No. If I did, would I be admitting it here?

3. Do you own a gun?

No, but since I'm half convinced, based on recent conversations with my friend, Rattus, that Western civilization as we know it will collapse within the next five years, I might have to reconsider.

4. What flavor do you add to your drink at Sonic?

Que? Never had anything to drink at Sonic other than iced tea. You add flavors to your drink at Sonic?

5. Do you get nervous before doctor appointments?

Nah. I've had so many of them over the last 10 years, it's just routine.

6. What do you think of hot dogs?

Mostly, I could do without them. Unless I'm at a baseball game...

7. Favorite Christmas movie?

I've probably seen It's a Wonderful Life more than A Christmas Story, but A Christmas Story just cracks me up.

8. What do you prefer to drink in the morning?

Coffee. Duh.

9. Can you do push ups!?

Plural?

10. What's your favorite piece of jewelry?

I only wear a wedding ring. Well, I guess that's not quite true. I have a little magnetic bracelet that I wear on my left wrist, which somehow or another helps with my wrist pain.

11. Favorite hobby?

Do other Daddy's actually have hobbies?

12. Do you have A.D.D.?

Huh? What?

13. What is one trait you hate about yourself?

My temper. I usually keep it pretty well controlled, but there are times where it bubbles up. I really fear for the day that Amy, or God forbid the kids, accidently get the full brunt of my temper. That would be truly, truly scary for all involved.

14. Middle name?

R.

15. Name 3 thoughts at this exact moment.

- Good lord how many questions are there?
- Dagnabbit the timer went off on the light!
- When is the kid going to wake up for her snack?

16. Name 3 things you bought yesterday.

Lunch at Schmidt's for Amy and me.

17. Name 3 drinks you regularly drink?

1. Coffee, 2. Coffee 3. Coffee

18. Current worry...

That I'll be up most of the night worrying for the third night in a row.

19. Current hate right now?

Writing requirements

20. Favorite place to be?

At home on my couch with my sweetie :)

21. Where would you like to go?

Walla Walla

22. Name three people who will complete this?

After me in my circle of friends? Probably noone, y'all have much better things to do with your lives :)

23. Name three people you would like to complete this?

No.

24. Shirt you are wearing?

Black T-shirt. Go fig.

25. What year would you go back in time to?

I don't think I would. I mean, my own past is past, there are good things and bad things about it, but the exciting stuff is ahead. I enjoy reading about more distant past, but wouldn't wanna live there.

26. Can you whistle?

Sorta

27. Favorite color?

Black. Wait, that's not technically a color. Blue.

28. Would you be a pirate?

No. I have too many eyes, too many teeth, too many legs and too many hands. Plus I can't speak the dialect.

29. Favorite girl's name?

Amy. Second favorite: Teagan :P

30. Favorite boy's name?

You'll have to wait a while longer for that one :P

31. Last thing you dreamed about?

I don't remember, but it was last night, and it was strange, because things would happen, then the dream would rewind, and start again with slightly different dialog. That might happen five or six times before the scene continued. Strange....

32. What's in your pocket right now?

Nothing.

33. Last person that made you laugh?

My child.

34. Best Halloween costume?

Good lord, I can't remember that far back...

35. Worst injury you've ever had?

Pain-wise, probably one of the bajillion times I popped out my back. Sometimes from tying my shoes. Sports-wise, I caught my ribs on a railing while stepping off a treadmill and strained the obliques on my left side, kept me out of the gym for three weeks.

36. Do you like where you live?

It's a nice place to visit, but I really miss home.

37. How many TVs do you have in your house?

Two

38. Who is your loudest friend?

Oooooooo... a competition. Not sure, I'd have to think about it.

39. How many dogs do you have?

None

40. Does someone have a crush on you?

I hope Amy does....?

41. What is your favorite book?

Oh, too many to choose from. I don't think a single book could be a favorite. For example, I love the LOTR series, but couldn't pick a favorite among them. Same for the Dark Tower series, Harry Potter, etc.

42. What is your favorite candy?

Currently, Butterfinger.

43. Favorite Sports Team ?

Cleveland Indians. Hands down.

44. Favorite Sport?

Baseball

45. What were you doing 12 AM last night?

Trying to sleep and failing miserably.

46. What was the first thing you thought of when you woke up?

%$&*

this whole thing made me chuckle, but I laughed really loudly with your answer to #9. Plural? HA!

rebecca -

so, are you telling me you can do pushups, plural? :)

Anonymous said...

Jeem, is that you, and what have you done with Tom??!!

Joann said...

So those magnet thingys really work? I thought of doing the questions but remembered I sorta have 2 jobs and school right now. I love reading them when people do them, though.

Bald Man Tom said...

redbeard -

I know how odd it is that I'd do something like this, but it's really me...

joann -

I have to say that I'm completely surprised, but for me (and incidently my dad, uncle and aunt), yes. I can't speak to how they'd work for other people though. My aunt sells things of this sort, if you (or anyone else out there in interwebnetland, for that matter) is interested, I could put you in contact.

I recently tried to do more than one push up and failed miserably. I'll stick to lifting my 2lb weights.

rebecca -

2lb weights? Plural? :)
