48 Stoopid Things You Don't Care About ...

... so why am I doing this? I don't know. 'Cause I'm busy staying up too late 'cause no one is here to tell me to go to bed. (stoopid me :slaps head:)

48 Things You Could Care Less About


1. FIRST NAME? Julie

2. WERE YOU NAMED AFTER ANYONE? My grandfather was hoping I'd be a boy. He wanted me to be named "Johnny" (or should I say "Yonny?" He was Swedish.) Anyway, my first name ended up being Julie ("Yoolie"), but my middle name is the same as my Mom's, and she got hers from her Dad! No ... I won't tell you what it is.

3. WHEN DID YOU LAST CRY? Hmmm ... last week? No wait ... earlier this evening. I was watching "The Horse Whisperer" w/ DD. That scene where Grace is getting re-acquainted w/ Pilgrim gets me every time.

4. DO YOU LIKE YOUR HANDWRITING? Usually.

5. WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE LUNCHMEAT? Pastrami

6. IF YOU WERE ANOTHER PERSON WOULD YOU BE FRIENDS WITH YOU? Yes, but I think I would get mad at me occasionally.

7. DO YOU HAVE A JOURNAL? You're reading it.

8. DO YOU STILL HAVE YOUR TONSILS? Yes, and my appendix, too.

9. WOULD YOU BUNGEE JUMP? Uh-uh

10. WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE CEREAL? A big bowl of oatmeal w/ brown sugar, cinnamon & chopped pecans.

11. DO YOU UNTIE YOUR SHOES WHEN YOU TAKE THEM OFF? No.

12. DO YOU THINK YOU ARE STRONG? Mentally or physically? Hmmm ... I'd like to *think* I'm pretty tough mentally (or emotionally), and I think I can be physically strong when I need to be.

13. WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE ICE CREAM FLAVOR? That's a hard one -- I like just about any kind of ice cream as long as it has chocolate in it.

14. SHOE SIZE? 9.5 - 10

15. RED OR PINK? Red.

16. WHAT IS THE LEAST FAVORITE THING ABOUT YOURSELF? I'm too impatient with my children; I talk too much.

17. WHO DO YOU MISS THE MOST? My youth.

18. DO YOU WANT EVERYONE TO SEND THIS BACK TO YOU? No.

19. WHAT COLOR PANTS, SHIRT AND SHOES ARE YOU WEARING? Embarrassingly, black pants w/a navy blue sweatshirt and old beat up tan-colored slippers -- Couch Wear.

20. LAST THING YOU ATE? Popcorn

21. WHAT ARE YOU LISTENING TO RIGHT NOW? Iron Chef on TV.

22. IF YOU WERE A CRAYON, WHAT COLOR WOULD YOU BE? Some shade of reddish orange, probably.

23. FAVORITE SMELL? Lavendar or fresh coffee or hot popcorn or bread baking in the oven.

24. WHO WAS THE LAST PERSON YOU TALKED TO ON THE PHONE? My DH.

25. THE FIRST THING YOU NOTICE ABOUT PEOPLE YOU ARE ATTRACTED TO? Their level of energy and/or happiness.

26. DO YOU LIKE THE PERSON you stole THIS from? Absolutely!! Got it from Miss Andrea!

27. FAVORITE DRINK? Diet Coke ... with a little rum or coffee or iced tea, but mostly I drink water.

28. FAVORITE SPORT? Baseball! Go Cubs! (stop laughing!!)

29. EYE COLOR? Dark brown

30. HAT SIZE? Why would I know this??

31. DO YOU WEAR CONTACTS? I used to ... I had laser surgery about 5 years ago.

32. FAVORITE FOOD? I like lots of different foods. It kind of depends on my mood. Right now a really fresh field green salad would be good.

33. SCARY MOVIES OR HAPPY ENDINGS? Happy endings.

34. IF YOU COULD LIVE ANYWHERE IN THE WORLD WHERE WOULD THAT BE? I don't think I've been enough places to answer this. I would like to visit some places to find out,though: Hawaii, Australia, Sweden, Idaho, etc.

35. SUMMER OR WINTER? Summer

36. HUGS OR KISSES? Hugs.

37. FAVORITE DESSERT? See #32 ... depends on my mood, but usually it has to have chocolate. On those rare occasions where I'm not in the mood for chocolate, something with lemon usually wins me over.

38. WHO IS MOST LIKELY TO RESPOND? I have no idea.

39. LEAST LIKELY TO RESPOND? See #38

44. ROLLING STONE OR BEATLES? The Beatles hands down!

45. THE FURTHEST YOU’VE BEEN FROM HOME? St. Maarten

47. WHERE WERE YOU BORN? Illinois

48. WHO SENT THIS TO YOU? No one ... I took it upon myself to swipe it from Andrea's blog.
