I once, I always, I never.....

I once was stung on the tongue by a wasp in the first grade. That is what I get for running around with my mouth open.


I always try to sleep in the middle of the bed, whether I am alone or not.


I never can be reading one book at any given time. I am always in the middle of at least 3 or more books.

*****

I once had an unfortunate accident with a tree. It got in the way of the dog I was walking and another dog. I was the victim and the tree won.


I always avoid people from my high school when I see them around town.


I never can make it out of the door in the morning without forgetting at least one thing. Sunglasses, keys, my mind.

*****

I once was attacked by a goose. I was three and apparently my pigtails resembled a tasty snack. I am still wary of geese.


I always am three degrees below the normal human temperature of 98.6. (That’s just for you ,Specialist ;) )


I never ever ever ever eat olives. They are foul. I will whimper and point to the offending olive until someone will rescue me from its ickiness.

*****

I once stole glue sticks for a glue gun from a craft store. I was caught by my mom and she took me back to return them. I was mortified. And apparently had weird taste in stealing things.

I always read at night before I go to sleep. This of course means I always go to sleep later than I had intended to.

I never can remember to return things, movies, library books, a friend's Tahoe sweater ( sorry Tiff).

*****

I once won the industrial arts award in the 7th grade. It was for the wood working class I took instead of Home Ec. I was the only girl in a class of 30. My parents were so proud. The boys in my class were not.

I always make wishes… on stars, while holding my breathe driving thru a tunnel, driving under a train… I think its fun.

I never bring lunch from home though I know I should. I eat out everyday just so I can get out of the office.

*****

I once when I was three told a little girl that her bother was a f**ker. I blame my parents for the love of the f-word.

I always smile at dogs walking by. I take no notice of the owner unless I want to pet the dog then I ask if it’s ok.

I never want to go sky diving. Ever. I am absolutely terrified of jumping out of a plane. I will of course be supportive if one of my friends want to. I will wait on the ground with a beer and a spatula. Just in case.

*****

I once was told by a friend that she couldn’t hang out with me anymore after my boyfriend had broken up with me because she thought her boyfriend would break up with her too.


I always dream, every night. They are vivid dreams that make no sense and have no relevance to what is going on in my life. Its kind of like having my own TV show.


I never cook for myself. I usually make a sandwich or get take out. I prefer cooking for someone else. Doesn’t seem like its worth dirtying dishes for just myself.

*****

I once kicked a boy in the nuts for chasing me around the playground trying to lift up my skirt on Friday Flip-Up Day. Even in high school he wouldn’t come close to me, just in case.

I always have mysterious bruises, little cuts and nicks. I think the bruises are a vitamin shortage. As for the others I am just clumsy.

I never liked the nickname Lizzie.

*****

I once screamed at a cop for pulling me over. I was truly hysterical and it got me out of a ticket. It could have also been because he pulled me over in front of my parent’s house.

I always loved watching The Smurfs. I wish they were still on.

I never thought I could think of enough things to attempt this post. Ok I admit some are really lame but hey what is a girl to do.

Questions

1. If you could go back and change one decision you made in your life, would you, and what would it be?
I can't say there is one decision I have made that I would change because I have learned from those decisions. The bad decisions taught me what I didn't want and helped me in making smarter decisions for myself. And the good decision well.... they were good and I am happy I made them and learned positive things from them. Unless of course we are talking about the decision to have that seconr (or third) piece of pizza, then maybe that wasn't the best and wish I could change that. LOL

2. Name a blogger that you would love to meet in real life, and why?
Ok no fair :), I will not chose just one. I would love to meet all my regular readers, Kate, Retro Girl, Vixen and Anna. I look forward to reading your blogs everyday and loving lerning about each one of you. You all have become a part of my life and I care for each one of you.

3. If you could do anything right now, with no repercussions, what would you do?

With no repercusions, I would take a sabbatical ( if you can do that from being as assistant) and travel the world for a year. There is so much I want to see and do, and some times life just gets in the way. Of course I would love to have my friends and The Specialist ( also known as The Mechanic) with me. Does the no repercussions clause extend to them too ?? :D
4. What is the one thing that you're embarrassed to admit you cannot live without?

Apparently its Ginger Ale, as The Specialist has pointed out that I am addicted too. I drink it all the time. When I am hung over, when I am not feeling well and just because. I realize I do drink ALOT of it and constatly have it stocked in my house. I swear by it.

5. If you could switch places with one celebrity for a month, who would you choose, and why?

Can I say no thank you? To be honest while the $$ from being a celebrity would be very nice, I don't want that kind of invasive attention. I don't want to see my life spewed on the pages of the tabloids. It doesn't appeal to me at all. I respect the celebrities that use their image to promote worthwhile causes. But I am more of a behind scenes girl.

And thus concludes my five. If you are interested in participating, here are the rules: Leave me a comment saying, "Interview me!" I will respond by e-mailing you five questions. I get to pick them, and you have to answer them all. You will update your blog with the answers to the questions. You will include this explanation and an offer to interview someone else in the same post. When others comment asking to be interviewed, you will ask them five questions.
