Cuz BD Asked....
So I went to BarDouble's blog to as usual read about her crazy life and was asked if I wanted to answer some questions she came up with about my life. Well, cuz I ain't scared I said Yeppers! So here are the questions I was asked and their answers.....
1. You are given 1 million dollars to plan a Bloggers get-together. Tell us where, when and what your party is all about.
Hmmmm... A Million Dollars is soooooooo much money! I think I would have to find a way to rent an Island somewhere out in the Pacific for a week during the month of August, preferably around my birthday so it could be a duel bash!!! **snicker, don't forget the gifts!** It would just be a kick ass time with all of the food and tasty beverages one could ask for in the tranquility and seclusion of paradise. If it wasn't possible to rent an island, then I would have to try and get the Stanley Hotel in Colorado, the one where they filmed the movie "The Shining" for a week. They say that place is haunted so those of you who know me know I would be getting pretty intoxicated while doing some ghost hunting :) Regardless of which place, it would be a tremendous time!
2. We all know you LOVE your man! Tell us where you met and how you fell in love.
Oh wow! I love this story. Well Michael and I actually met online. Yep. You can actually meet people online and fall completely and totally head over heels in love with them! Here is how is happened. I started blogging in January of 2006 and one day while hitting that little 'next blog' button at the top of the screen I came across a blog called '6:19' which Michael had put together. The point of the blog was about a man with insomnia who made 2 posts everyday and they happened to be a 6:19 each time. Interesting I thought! I read 2 posts. One entitled 'The Boogeyman' and the other was called 'Flowers In The Attic'. I loved what they said and posted a comment. Well the next day he came to my blog and slowly we just kept venturing back and forth to each other's blog posting comments. About 4 weeks later, I get an email asking if I wanted to do a joint blog with him because he said I was funny (and not lookin either damn it!). So we did that for a bit and then started corresponding by email. By the end of April we had started chatting by Yahoo Instant Messenger and that is when we became the best of friends. We had everything in common and enough differences that was just the perfect mesh. We fit. We clicked as they say. I had my first phone conversation with him in June of last year, yes a year ago this month. We talked all of the time. At the end of August, we both wanted to know if the feelings we were having for each other were real so we decided we wanted to meet and in mid-September, Michael made the trip from Texas to Missouri and we spent a wonderful 3 day weekend together. I still remember that first time I say him with my very own eyes.... I still get chills thinking about it. He left and went back home and it was after he went back (which was hard by the way. He didn't want to leave and my heart broke when he left) that we decided we wanted to make this work. So in December he brought is family and they helped him relocate up here with me. And it's been the most wonderful experience of my life. The interent brought me my best friend and the love of my life. Honestly, I have never been happier..... He makes my world brighter with a simple smile!
3. Tell us the craziest story you have ever heard on your job.
Oh Lord.... Okay I had to think about this one for a minute but here you go. A woman had called in saying she really wanted to pay her bill but she just couldn't because she was in the hospital. Yep she was actually calling from her hospital bed! And she was in the hospital because of the following: first her daughter tried to kill her and she doesn't know why because she raised her daughter to not be a killer (yes she actually said that) and then one day she was in her car and it got hit by a train which broke her legs and shortly after going home from that hospital stay she was struck in the head with an Air Conditioning unit! The whole story reminded me of a Roadrunner and Wyle E. Coyote cartoon! She was definitely the coyote!
4. Tell us what your dream vacation would be.
I would want to travel outside the US to a couple of different places. First would be Ireland. I have always wanted to visit that country. The Japanese culture has always fascinated me so that would be my next stop. But finally, I would have to go and stay in Dracula's Castle. Since as you know and as I said earlier, I have a total and complete fascination with all things scary!
5. You can choose bloggers to spend 6 months in a locked house with. Tell us who and why.
Well obviously, Blu would be my number one pick. I couldn't stay 6 months anywhere without him. He brings too much fun to my world! Plus he has a music collection to die for and he is funny as hell. Then I would pick NaughtyVoyeur because she has been my best friend for years. She is as sarcastic as myself and we do have fun when we get to see each other. Plus we have the ability to have great conversation! Next would be Miss BarDouble because I think her and I share a mind at times. So many things she says and thinks I agree with 110%. Plus, I know she is another one I could have a meaningful conversation with. Then there is Sirdar. A witty, funny and very intelligent fellow! RockDog because he would make sure we never forgot the 80's! Oh and we would never have a dull moment with him around. Aunt Jackie because she is just off the wall at times. I love her little rants and tangents. Bottom line is she makes me laugh. Scarlett because she would bring a nice artistic side to all of us. She is smart and sweet and just one cool chica. Steven Novak (even though he isn't blogging anymore) because he makes us all laugh and wonder with his off the wall true life stories. I don't think we would have a moment of boredom! And lastly would be Jason, Mr. Cigar's Coffee and Donuts. Gotta have a cop to keep us in line even though I think he would probably be as crazy as the rest of us. **snicker** There are actually several more people and its only because I enjoy reading their blogs. I like their stories and their insight.....
Now if anyone would like for me to ask them some questions, let me know and I would gladly come up with 5 of them for you! It could be fun so come on.. What do ya say????
