Tag – You’re It!
So today I was nominated for the Beautiful Blogger Award by the lovely Jennifaye. Yay! Although this reminded me that I had also been tagged by nosugarjustspice WEEKS ago and I totally forgot! So, I’m starting with the earlier tag and, if I have time, will roll right on through to the more recent one!
First up, the one I am going to refer to as ‘Blog Tag’, has the following rules:
1. You must post the rules
2. Answer the questions the tagger set for you in their post
3. Create eleven new questions to ask the people you’ve tagged
4. Tag eleven people with a link to your post
5. Let them know you tagged them
And the questions posted by nosugarjustspice and my answers are:
1. What’s the most exciting thing you’ve done in the last year?
Ooohhhh, quit my job, which I did just a few weeks ago! Exciting times are ahead!
2. Favourite 80’s movie?
Girls Just Want to Have Fun!
3. Do you still have toys from when you were a child?
Yes, and sadly some are still in my bedroom. I just can’t let them go and keep telling myself that they’ll mean so much to my kids when I pass them on (note – I have no kids and don’t expect to have any for quite a while still!)… except Sealy Lorne, who is my number 1!
4. You’re being sent to Biosphere 2 for a year and can only take one person, who would it be?
Hmmm… only for a year? Would I have any means of communication with other people? Argh, I can’t decide!
5. If you could be a member of the opposite sex for a day, would you?
No way! Haha!
6. Is there anything in the area surrounding you right now that could be used to fight zombies in the apocalypse?
Yep, a MASSIVE aerosol can of Fudge Skyscraper hairspray.
7. How many alarms does it take to wake you up of a morning? (It takes me 5)
Two alarms, which start at 7.15 and 7.20 and keep getting snoozed until about 7.50-8am. I HATE mornings!
8. Hollywood is remaking your favourite movie ever and wants you to play your favourite character from that movie, which movie is it and who are you playing?
Amelie and Amelie!
9. What are 5 terms/names/etc you wish you had never heard and could be removed history?
The first thing to come to mind is too horrid to share, but I had to ask blogger Lyndon Keane to translate and we both regret googling as soon as we had done so… no further comment on that.
Second, third, fourth and fifth would be babe (as in people refer to each other as this), moist, Hugh (as in the name, because I can’t pronounce it) and… Mash (just the mention of it makes me feel sick)!
10. What’s the stupidest thing you’ve done when drunk?
Oh, there’s way too many to narrow it down… In recent months projectile vomiting all over my luggage and the hotel room floor would probably be the worst of it.
11. If you could wake up tomorrow and walk into your dream job what would it be?
Professional world traveller and gazillionaire 
And eleven new questions:
- What’s one city in the world that you’ve always wanted to visit and why?
- What is your biggest fear?
- Have you ever seen a ghost?
- What is your guilty pleasure?
- If you could have any animal in the world as a pet, what animal would it be?
- Are you a dog or a cat person?
- If you could have one superpower, what would it be?
- What’s your favourite song of all time?
- When you were young, what did you plan to be when you grew up?
- Chips and salad or roast potatoes and vegetables?
- If you won a million dollars, what would you do/buy first?
And the eleven blogs that I tag are…
- www.frugalistablog.com (for her great Kristen Stewart impersonation)
- www.findingravity.com
- www.somethingswedish.wordpress.com
- www.housewifedownunder.wordpress.com
- www.paltrymeanderings.com
- www.beetleandswan.wordpress.com
- www.pithypants.com
- www.mikesilvia.wordpress.com
- www.disseminatedthought.wordpress.com
- www.torinelson.wordpress.com
- www.simonandfinn.com (the baby mouse deer made me cry
)
I hope you enjoy these blogs as much as I do!
Okay, having just done this one and with seven more blogs to nominate, I’m going to take a few days to complete the Beautiful Blogger Award! Phew!
Ouch #10 brought back all kinds of foolish college memories
You are not alone, missy!
Thank you very much for thinking of me!
Obviously, I am waaaaay behind in my blog reading. Either that or your posts aren’t showing up in my Reader…an ongoing problem I’ve been trying to solve for the last month or so. Can you hear me, wordpress Happiness Engineers? Yes, that is the title they go by. Feel free to insert any joke you have about the irony of the term “postal service” right here. Please give me a few days to respond, but thanks for this, erm…honor? Certainly, thanks for the kind shout out. It’s an honor coming from a funny girl like YOU!
Hi Teninizlle! Thanks so much for the nomination! Super creative post – ! I have to get familiar few more bloggers to ask these questions of – and I think I might take your list there as a great starting point!
I originally wanted to comment on this when I saw it the first time but couldn’t find the comment button on the home page – I guess one has to go directly to the published post in order to comment. I’m looking forward to your next post and keep checking back in.
Thanks for generously awarding me The Versatile Blogger Award. I have finally responded with the mother of all award posts – and you are featured in it. Drop by and check out all the awesome things I have to say about you! http://paltrymeanderings.com/ Thanks again!
