Yet Another Meme

As seen virtually everywhere -- I give you the Question Meme!


1. Name as it appears on birth certificate: Bandit Paradise. (Actually, that’s my Porn Star name…)

2. Nicknames: Whatever you feel like shoutin’… KLee, Ma, Boo…the list is endless.

3. Place of Birth: Richland County

4. Favorite food: Hm… Currently, I would say the egg rolls I learned to make recently.

5. Ever been to Africa: No

6. Love someone so much it hurts: Oh, yeah.

7. Been in a car accident: Several. Lots of fender benders (people here CAN NOT drive for squat.) Hit by a drunk driver about 12 years ago – totaled my car, but we were all right, thank God. He took off from the accident and reported the truck stolen. What a mental giant.

8. Croutons or bacon bits: Both! And some sunflower seeds....

9. Favorite day of the week: Wednesday and Friday. Wednesday because the work week is half over, and Friday because the weekend is just starting.

10. Favorite restaurant: The local Japanese steak house. I like the teriyaki Chicken and the Filet Mignon. Yum!

11. Favorite sport to watch: Ugh. I guess swimming. Have any of you ever seen “Most Extreme Elimination Challenge” on SPIKE TV? If that counts, then that’s my choice. :)

12. Favorite drink for summer: Sweet tea, as long as it’s made right. My family thinks I’m nuts, but tea spoils if you don’t refrigerate it, and it tastes AWFUL if it isn’t fresh. Cherry Limeade if the tea stinks.

13. Favorite ice cream: Chocolate Almond. (Or, Cold Stone’s Cake Batter.)

14. Disney or Warner Bros.: Disney, definitely.

15. Favorite fast food restaurant: Sonic. Mmmmm…chili cheese coneys….

16. What Color is your bedroom carpet: A very, very dirty grey. (yes, the actual color is grey, not just from years of slovenly housekeeping.)

17. How many times did you fail your driver's test: Zero.

18. Before this one, from whom did you get your last e-mail: The Disney DVD club. I’m so popular, it hurts.

19. Which store would you choose to max out your credit card: Barnes and Noble or Michael’s.

20. What do you do most often when you are bored: read a book, or work on some sort of craft project.

21. What time is Bedtime: Whenever I turn the light off. I’m a night owl.

22. (There was no question here, so I’ll insert one) Favorite perfume: Victorian Rose. (I buy essential oils, or enfleurage my own rose water, and make my own scent sometimes.)

23. (another blank space, so my own question) Briefs, Boxers, Thongs, or Commando? None of the above. I like Granny Panties, thank you. Call me Granny if you like, I need some coverage for my girth. Plus, Granny Panties help hold all the fat in. Kind of like a poor woman's girdle.

24. Favorite TV shows: Six Feet Under, Homicide: Life on the Street, The Wire, That 70’s Show, Ballykissangel, Blackadder. ER, and the Sopranos.

25. Last person/s you went to dinner with: JF and Pookiebutt (aka the Offspring.)

26. Ford or Chevy: Ew. Neither! Honda! :)

27. What are you listening to right now: JF juggling. I hear the air conditioning, and the splat of the leather balls hitting his palms. My Siamese, meowing.

28. What is your favorite color: Blue

29. Lake, ocean or river: Ocean. There’s something calming about waves lapping on the shore. For swimming, a pool. The water here is nasty. We have three-headed fish and all kinds of crud in the water.

30. How many tattoos do you have: None. I wanted a very complex one, but it was going to cost me over $500, and I am not trailer-trash enough to *finance* a tattoo.

31. Have you ever run out of gas: Yes. I had an old clunker in high school, and the gas gauge was inhabited by gremlins. The gauge would read however it felt, regardless of the amount of actual gas in the tank.

KLee, you may be the only person answering this meme who has juggling in the background! I love your answers :)

Well, it's a common enough occurence in this household. At least, this time, i didn't have to edit for cursing.

JF taught himself to juggle about 2 and a half years ago. He went from not being able to juggle at all to juggling three balls -- juggling three balls with some tricks thrown in -- juggling three clubs -- juggling four balls with tricks -- juggling three clubs with tricks -- juggling four clubs and working on tricks -- to now, where he's mainly concentrating on five balls, and also four clubs with harder tricks.

I'd say that's pretty darn good in so short a time frame.

He also has rings, but they get blown around a lot by the wind, so he doesn't have nearly the time in with them as he does with clubs and balls. We don't have the requisite ceiling height for rings at our house. :)

KLee, great answers. I enjoyed reading this very much.

I like that you caught that 22 and 23 were missing. I copied it straight from halloweenlover and never even noticed.

Oh, have you ever had the apple pie ice cream at Cold Stone? It tastes just like a real apple pie. I must try the cake batter; I had some at Maggie Moo's (similar type place) and it was delicious.

KLee said...

ccw -- no, I have not had the apple pie yet, but I shall have to remedy that! I chose the cheesecake the last time we went there, and JF chose the blueberry pie. Both were wonderful.

"Poor woman's girdle"!!!! ROFLMAO!

KLee said...

YT -- Well....it's true! :) Stop laughing at me and my granny panties! :)

Running2Ks said...

KLee, I love granny panties. They are comfy. I'll never understand the thong things ;)

And that juggling is great. That means you have entertainment for every party. I couldn't learn to juggle to save my life. It is an awesome talent.

KLee said...

R2K's -- I totally agree with you about the thongs. I feel like I spend enough time trying to get my underwear out of my crack. why would I buy underwear that went there on purpose?

JF juggles everywhere we go. Much to the delight of my Girl Scouts, who clamor for him to do tricks every time they see him. JF takes his juggling balls with him everywhere. The grocery store, work, the Mall, dinner, the beach, camping....EVERYWHERE.

halloweenlover said...

You make your own perfume?!??! How fabulous are you, klee!!!

Also, I HATE thongs. I just want something that covers my ass, honestly. Yuck.

And now I am mortified that I didn't notice there were numbers missing from my meme. Sigh. This is why I suck as a lawyer, no attention to detail : )

HL -- don't get all worked up! I haven't made my own perfume in a while. And, I also make my own soap. I haven't done that in a while, either. One year, for Christmas, I made all these handmade soaps that were all specially made with whatever person in mine -- my mom's had sea salt and a hint of musk; my stepdad's was all citrusy, and mine was rose-scented. It was a lot of effort for not very much in return. People go "Oh. Soap. How...um...nice. Do I stink, or something?"

It's not a big deal that there were numbers missing -- I wouldn't have noticed but one of CCW's commenters did, so I made a mental note to put my own questions in there...
