Break blog law: UNITE!

03 September 2005

Two years ago the blogosphere was pretty cool - you could go nic a meme from someone's site and fill it out. "Hey man, look at me, I have something to post on my blog today. It's this nifty meme I found and so-and-so's site. THE WHOLE ENTIRE UNIVERSE should play along. I love kittens too."

Now the memes are all pretentious 'n stuff and you have to be "tagged" to play. I totally wasn't cool enough to do the music meme that all the cool kids did (nor was I cool enough to get picked anything but last whenever we picked teams for kickball in gradeschool, yes, really) but just to prove *I CAN* (suck it, internet) I'm going to fill out this stupid meme. I encourage you to do the same.

I'll be waiting for the meme police to show up if you need to reach me.

10 years ago - Just starting my senior year of High School and applying to many different colleges. Dancing 5 days a week by now and zipping around town in my maroon, 2-door Oldsmobile Cutlass Calais.

5 years ago - Starting my second senior year of college in Eau Claire. Finally making a decision and acting on that whole "major" declaration thing.

1 year ago - Just dyed my hair blonde and red after moving in to a new apartment. Working in my dream career.

Yesterday - Still working in dream career. Took afternoon off to lounge around the house before watching "A Perfect Murder." I seriously love this movie and have watched it at least 2 dozen times.

5 snacks I enjoy - homemade popcorn, movie theater popcorn, toasted garlic & parmesan cheese butter crisps, cookie dough ice cream, and shoot - I can't remember the name of the last one but it's a french pastry filling that's sweet and tastes almondish and marzipan.

5 songs I know all the words to - Mile Long Train by Jimmy Dean, Material Girl by Madonna, iieee by Tori Amos, *every* Britney Spears song, and *every* Christina Aguilera song. *hangs head in shame*

5 things I would do with $100 million dollars - pick up The Tourist Guide, take a 6 month vacation with him, pay off the debt for my close friends and family members, buy 4 new computers (hey, each one would have a very specific purpose OKAY!), take my time thinking about where I'd like to move

5 places I would run away to - London, Sweden, New England, Bordeaux, Prague

5 things I would never wear - spandex, a scrunchy, shoulder pads, 1 or 2 inch heels (it's either no heel or high heel for me), tapered pants

5 favorite TV shows - haven't had TV in years my friend

5 biggest joys - <cheese> The Tourist Guide </cheese>, being in the "creative" zone, donating what I can in the form of designs, words, photographs, etc. to people who genuinely appreciate it, early sunday mornings, and listening to music

5 favorite toys - my computer Shiva, my camera Sophie, my car Bella, the websites, *all* video games

What's a scrunchy? Is it some kind of girl thing?

Confused from York

I did indeed send Welly a *STOCK* photo, because there's no way I would allow myself to set hands on one long enough to photograph it.

That's awfully nice of you Char, but I don't want a pity tag. I'm suggesting a revolution. MEME ANARCHY!!!

I had no idea you were a Blugold! Spent many a better part of the late 80's and early 90's in Davies Center drinking coffee waiting for my 8:00 classes. Worst part of Eau Claire was walking across the bridge in January!
