Oh what fun!

Darren from The Common Sense Gamer tagged me with one of those horribly lame “tell us about yourself” games. I hate these, but since I already have a witchcraft site breathing down my neck, I figured I’d better answer it. I have visions of some Candyman thing if I don’t.

Four jobs I have had in my life (not including current job):

1) Taught high school history
2) Coached high school softball and basketball
3) Camp counselor at a nature center
4) Sneaker salesperson at Lady Foot Locker (yes, I wore one of those green and white striped shirts)

Four Movies I have watched over and over:

1) Star Wars (Who doesn’t!)
2) Apocalypse Now (Maybe not over and over, but way more than any normal person should)
3) Kill Bill Vol 1 (wiggle your big toe)
4) Pretty much any kids movie that my kids like. If you have kids, you know that anything they like they have to watch about 2385903852396 times. Right now “A Bugs Life” is in the power rotation.

Four places I have lived:

1) Hamden, CT
2) Waterville, ME
3) Quebec City, Quebec
4) Franklin, MA

Four Shows I love to watch:

1) Hell’s Kitchen
2) Man Vs Wild, until I found out Bear was a big faker. :(
3) Real World (Any location)
4) Miami Vice (Crockett and Tubbs – coolest duo ever)

Four Places I have been on vacation:

1) Martinique (best lunch I ever had, followed by one of the best beach walks I ever had)
2) Allagash River, Maine/Canada (best canoe/camping ever. Just steer clear of the moose!)
3) Vegas!
4) Canyon de Chelly, Arizona (wading across the wash to see the cliffside ruins and petroglyphs was unreal)

Four of my favorite foods:

1) Boiled Maine Lobster
2) Veal Marsala
3) Spider Roll from the sushi bar
4) Anything with cilantro

Four favorite drinks:

1) Coke
2) Prickly Pear Lemonade
3) Merlot
4) Orange Soda with crushed ice (has to have crushed ice)

Four places I would rather be right now:

1) Silver Beach in Milford, CT with my two kids
2) Playing Vanguard
3) Doing pretty much anything with the kids (zoo, playground, berry picking, running around like maniacs)
4) On a white sand beach sipping a gigantic fruity drink with a paper umbrella (like who doesn’t)

Four People I Command to do This:

I really don’t have any internet friends, and I can’t bring myself to force anyone to do this anyway. So…I command no one! Thanks Darren, this was the lamest thing I have ever done. Now give me that bow back you sonofabee!

  1. okay, you are freaking me out Jaye. I grew up in Franklin, Ma.

    Oh and my son is on a Happy Feet kick atm, and Apocalypse was so close to making it to my list, atleast the original, not redux.

    crazy stuff

  2. Haha, that’s so weird! I’m living in Franklin right now, and loving it.

    And yeah, definitely not the redux version of Apocalypse Now. I saw it and the only conclusion I came to was that they made a very very good call in taking those scenes out. Totally different movie – much worse.

    I’ll have to check out Happy Feet. I’m getting sorta tired of ants.

  3. I completely understand “the rotation.” And coincidentally, Happy Feet is in our rotation right now–I find myself having to talk my daughter out of some movies to get one I can stand, though the music and penguins are better than most kid’s fare.

  4. [...] RL musings My son has yet to let me actually build anything with his new cache of wooden blocks. Playing a female character in MMOs may no longer be advantageous. I don’t know how I will maintain my standing as a great player now. /sarcasm Podcasts are almost as enjoyable to be in as they are to listen to. The barrier between RL and the blog-o-sphere is smaller than I thought. [...]
