Who knew that Proust was into memes? Not me. I guess that’s because I don’t read Vanity Fair, where they have the famous Proust Questionnaire, in every issue, answered by a different famous person. I came across it over at Buffy’s blog. I copied a few of her answers, because they applied to me as well. What do you regard as the lowest depth of misery? Ted and Maya murdered and their bodies thrown into a mass grave. (Sorry, I’m reading a book about people escaping death camps in WWII right now…) Where would you like to live? San Francisco, but with parking, a washer and drier, and good (and…

Ally Bean tagged me for this meme, one in which you don’t learn my favorite anything…it’s one for complaining a bit. Nice idea, huh? I’ll self promote and say I had a similar (though still different) idea awhile ago. 5 people who will be annoyed you tagged them. • Maya’s Granny • ML • Beenzzz • La Luna • Py Korry (I tagged all family this time! If anyone else is interested, tag yourself, it’s a good one!) 4 things that should go into room 101 and be removed from the face of the earth. • George W. Bush • Osama bin Laden • Dick Cheney • Eating Disorders 3…

I was tagged by Scarlett to do this little meme, 8 things you don’t know about me. Usually, I’m fairly game for a meme (that kind of rhymes), but between my ‘100’ things and the 51 other memes I’ve already done, I’m not sure there is any mystery left in this relationship. But kindly, since I was having trouble, Maya helped me come up with a few. Thanks, Monkey! First, the rules: ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 1. I have to post these rules before I give you the facts. 2. Each player starts with eight random facts/habits about themselves. 3. People who are tagged need to write their own blog about their eight…

(El Capitan – See number 5 – I got this picture from mariposa.yosemite.net.) I was tagged for this meme by Michelle over at Scribbit.  She morphed it from one of those “7 random things about me” memes into the teen thing.  I’ve written plenty of random stuff, so I’ll stick with her morph, as she intended.   So, here we go…7 things that happened to me as a teenager. 1. We finally stopped moving.  This was huge, because prior to 6th grade, we moved pretty much every year (or we might as well have, because even if we stayed in one house, we were put in different schools).  Moving that often taught…

Here’s a complicated kind of meme that I got from Ms. Mamma. It’s an interview, where she emailed me the questions, and now I have to answer them. What a lot of work, coming up with different questions for each person! WOW! 1. You excel at so many things-writing, cooking, parenting. What is your greatest unrealized passion or what would you be doing now if you could pick anything you wanted? You have the knowledge, funds and other resources at your fingertips and the support of your family. I’m blushing at the compliment at the beginning there…whew. OK, if I could pick anything in the world to do, and have…
