SUNDAY STEALING-FALL MEME

Sunday Stealing: A Fall Meme

It’s not really fall in until......the leaves begin to turn colors.

What did you need to do in the waning days of summer for it to feel complete?

Pick blackberries.

A person I know was wrong for me but about whom I frequently thought after a break-up was...

No one I care to remember.

If you could only attend one major sporting event what would it be?
Daytona 500

Assuming that you write an anonymous or partially anonymous blog, by what non-physically identifying characteristics might you be identified in a bar?

I'd be the woman talking to the spirits in the room...and I don't mean the booze!

Most blogs cover some sort of niche – personal, political, dating, culinary, etc. What topic, if any, would you like to address on your blog but doesn’t fit into your niche?

Personal Ad Piranhas.

If you could manipulate the time space continuum and give as many as three pieces of advice to a younger version of yourself, what advice would you give and to what age of you?

Age 31, don't get your tubes tied cause you'll want more babies.  Age 21, don't date Barry cause he's cheating on you with the nurse.  Age 24, don't rest until Donnie tells you what he wanted to tell you.

Who among your friends do you really wish had a blog because their stories, or perspective on something ought to be shared?

My friend, Rose Siers. If you know Rose in Eufaula, Oklahoma, have her get in touch with me!

If you were to take an e-cation (vacation from the trappings of our electronic world,) and assuming that employment obligations would allow it, how long of a break could you take? What would you miss the most, the least?

I'd miss the computer and cell phone.

On September 11th of this year, I attended a couple of parties and was somewhat conflicted by the fact that this ignoble anniversary shall pass with it being just another day in the eyes of many (and in some ways my own eyes as well.) Thoughts?

I'm conflicted on this one. First of all I agree that the day should be noted in some way. But to note it as it really should be noted, Sept. 11 needs to be a national holiday. Yet if we do that, if we have any big shindigs at all , we are also in a way commemorating the terrorists and what they stood for. I have a sad feeling it's a lose/lose situation no matter how we look at it.

How high are your walls? Who was the last person to scale them? What tools should would-be climbers have on their belt?

I haven't a clue but the maintenance man can reach the ceiling with a stepstool. His tools of choice? A cup of coffee and a paintbrush.

The sexiest thing a man or a woman can say to you (or has said to you) is:

You have the most beautiful eyes and hair I've ever seen.
