Discontinuance Of Action

So last night I decided to attend FHE. I have been skipping out recently, but with no other plans, I thought maybe I could get a funny story or two out of the night.

We went to the Bishop’s house and had to introduce the person sitting next to us. When it came time for the relative stranger to introduce me, he said, “I don’t know very much about her. I know her name is Denise, and she is so beautiful, she must be from Heaven.”

Now, I know a line when I hear it, so I just laughed and didn’t put much stock into this fake compliment.

This post has been going around blogs for a while, like those email surveys we use to send each other back in High School, but Mandy tagged me in her post, and not to disappoint, here are the answers to her questions. Enjoy. Take some of the questions if you are stumped for a new post for your blog.

1. Do you like blue cheese? Unlike Braden, Travis and Jenny, I don’t have any definitive thoughts on the subject. Although, when someone does mention blue cheese, I smile to myself and think about my emphatic friends.

2. Have you ever smoked? No. Have you?

3. Do you own a gun? I am socialist; do you think I believe in guns?

4. What flavor Kool Aid is your favorite? Anything but the “piney” juice. At one point in time, the Tropical flavour tasted like you licked a pine shaped car air freshener.
My mom stopped buying Kool Aid for us after we complained too many times.

5. Do you get nervous before doctor appointment? Of course, because by the time I decide to go to the doctor, I usually have myself convinced that I only days to live.

6. What do you think of hot dogs? Invention of the angels.

7. Favorite Christmas movie? I think I dislike Christmas movies more than I dislike Christmas.

8. What do you prefer to drink in the morning? Whatever is on hand, usually some sugary concoction.

9. Can you do push ups? No. I don’t see how being able to do a push up is a marketable skill.

10. What's your favorite piece of jewelry? I don’t really wear jewelry. But if you gave me some, I might wear it.

11. Favorite hobby? Blogging, although I think of it as more than a hobby. More a necessity like breathing.

12. Do you have A.D.D.? No. But my boss sure does.

13. What's your weight? N/A

14. Middle name? I think my parents are still trying to come up with one.

15. Name 3 thoughts at this exact moment:

Jenny is probably right.
Is it lunch already?
I need to call tonight to make an appointment to look at a house.

16. Name 3 drinks you regularly drink? Berry Five Alive, Apple Juice (Low Acid, of course.), Chocolate milk.

17. Current worry? I will have to live in a box at the end of the month.

18. Current hate right now? The idea of packing.

19. Favorite place to be? Weekday Eve or Mocha Cabana

20. How did you bring in the New Year? Fighting with my mom. (Sorry.)

21. Where would you like to go? Home, to go back to bed.

22. Do you own slippers? Yup, but where they are right now, I really don’t know.

23. What color shirt are you wearing right now? Black. Are you shocked?

24. Do you like sleeping on satin sheets? I don’t know, but I have a feeling I would slide right out of bed.

25. Can you whistle? Yes, but not as good as I can snap.

26. Favorite color? Black, Blue

27. Would you be a pirate? No, but I would be someone who sold limes so that the pirates wouldn’t get scurvy.

28. What songs do you sing in the shower? Whatever I have playing from my ipod. There is a reason the ipod player has a semi permanent home in our bathroom.

29. Favorite Girl's Name? Lauren (But now doesn’t that just make you think of The Hills?)

30. Favorite boy's name? Jack

31. What's in your pocket right now? I don’t even have any pockets in my pants. But usually my car keys are in my pocket.

32. Last thing that made you laugh? See FHE story above.

33. Best bed sheets as a child? I wasn’t luck enough to have My Little Pony or Alf sheets.

34. Worst injury you've ever had? It involves carrot sticks, my grade four social teacher and a lot of blood.

35. Do you love where you live? No, it is time to get out.

36. How many TVs do you have in your house? 3. I think Jenny has one in her room, but we really only watch one.

37. Who is your loudest friend? I don’t think of that as much of a compliment. My friends and I can get pretty loud on occasion, but I don’t think one person is generally louder than the next.

38. How many dogs do you have? None. Although I soon will be an aunt to a dog.

39. Does someone have a crush on you? One can only pray.

40. What is your favorite book? It isn’t War and Peace, but I love Confessions of a Shopaholic.

41 What is your favorite candy? Hershey Kisses.

42 Favorite Sports Team? Which ever of the teams is either, wearing orange or has the most obnoxious name/mascot.

43 What song do you want played at your funeral? I have no plans of dying, but should I (knock on wood.), “In My Life” The Beatles.
