| writesonwater | Posted – 9/13/2007 8:48:39 AM | show profile | email poster 1. What do you covet? a nicely balanced life 2. Have you ever sent a meal back at a restaurant? yes ... i was served a Mexican dish that someone seemed to have dumped the entire shaker of salt on. seriously -- it probably happened just like that. (So that's where jimmy buffett's lost shaker of salt went.) Rawish white meat goes back in a flash also. 3. Time to toot your own horn---tell us something wonderful aout yourself! i wrote the theme song for a statewide campaign. 4. What would constitute the perfect day for you? my husband, my kids, a few friends and family wandering Paris on a cool but sunny with all the resources we needed at our disposal -- transport, money, safety. Roam where we want, meet up for meals and share the day. how much would it cost to do that anyway/ that sounds fun. 5. What would you title your autobiography? The Fishhouse Chronicles 6. What are some of the stranger jobs you've held? singing at a lounge i wasn't old enough to drink at. i have a weirder one but it's top secret because it's going to be part of a book....oh, see above. 7. Have you ever stolen anything? yes, as a pre-teen. got a shock to my system when i got caught at a department store. good thing too. After that, nada. 8. What are some of your oddities? i love languages and accents. i need to know how things are spelled. A little OCD? I have no stage fright. i sing Big Band and play the piano by ear, completely self-taught. I have a very quick memory, and people sometimes think I have more formal education than I do. I once spent 47 days in hospital with a pregnancy. 9. What memory is so embarrassing that it still makes you cringe each time you think of it? Oh, i have a list -- and i put it out of reach. Why smack myself on a bruise? ;) 10. What assumptions do you find yourself making about people? well, put it this way, I went into shock after the last federal election and could hardly get out of bed for three days -- to think so many Americans thought the Emperor had clothes on. I would not have assumed that. ~Bonus Question~ How many times a day would you estimate you think about sex? Um, more than some, less than others? |
| foto | Posted – 9/13/2007 9:23:02 AM | show profile 1. What do you covet? That question sounds biblical like, "thy neighbor's wife" 2. Have you ever sent a meal back at a restaurant? I once ordered blackened catfish but got something resembling catfish in a pepper sauce 3. Time to toot your own horn---tell us something wonderful aout yourself! There's nothing wonderful to tell 4. What would constitute the perfect day for you? Just being alone working a personal art project 5. What would you title your autobiography? Lewd, Crude and Rude 6. What are some of the stranger jobs you've held? As a men's department salesman at a dept store, it was amazing how many times women asked me to measure their waist and inseam 7. Have you ever stolen anything? No 8. What are some of your oddities? I scratch my behind at work when nobody is looking 9. What memory is so embarrassing that it still makes you cringe each time you think of it? One time at work an announcement was made that the toilet was broken. But I forgot and make a BM. I suddenly realized that it was broken and wouldn't flush. I had to lift the turd out of the water put it in a bag and carry it around the building looking for a place to get rid of it. On the way, I ran into several coworkers and had to talk to them as I was holding the bag containing the offending deposit. 10. What assumptions do you find yourself making about people? That they think I'm weird ~Bonus Question~ How many times a day would you estimate you think about sex? I practice mental celebacy (for at least 1 minute a day) |
| HisGirlFriday | Posted – 9/13/2007 9:52:54 AM | show profile Ooooo - good ones as always, Janet! 1. What do you covet? Really expensive shoes - I'm far too cheap to actually buy them. Also ridiculously hip, modern, funky kid's gear - I lust after those Bugaboo strollers even though my kid is in preschool. 2. Have you ever sent a meal back at a restaurant? Yes - it had meat in it (was told it did not) and I'm a vegetarian. 3. Time to toot your own horn---tell us something wonderful aout yourself! Last month someone *finally* published one of my personal essays! 4. What would constitute the perfect day for you? Late summer beach day with Husband and Kid - drop kid off at Grandma's house for overnight visit while Husband and I meet closest friends for chic dinner party. Spend night in hotel with Husband to avoid having sex in our bedroom, which is filled with kid accessories. 5. What would you title your autobiography? Just a Small Town Girl "Living in a Lonely World" (or maybe I just have a thing for Journey) 6. What are some of the stranger jobs you've held? I worked as a telemarketer, which is not that strange, but I was stupendously bad at it. Several times I actually mailed my own cash to people who I called because they were so poor. I'd hit them up for a donation (it was for public TV) andd they'd say: "Oh gosh, my seven kids really love Big Bird but my husband is off in the Army and we don't have any food this month, but I think I can send you $10. Is that OK?" And I'd just crack. Once an elderly woman told me that she could not donate because her husband just died THAT WEEK and money was too tight. The supervisor yelled at me for not asking for a donation "in memorium." I literally walked out in the middle of a shift. 7. Have you ever stolen anything? In college we broke into a house that was being renovated and I swiped an ashtray. 8. What are some of your oddities? I'm a strange mix of girly-girl and tomboy: I love football and hockey but also love a mani-pedi and my Glamour magazine. I drink whiskey on the rocks but I'm so terrified of bugs that I once made my neighbor come over to try to smash a cockroach in my house. 9. What memory is so embarrassing that it still makes you cringe each time you think of it? I was once bad-mouthing this bitchy woman at work on the phone to a friend when outside my door - that woman poked her head in my office and told me that "maybe I should close the door if I'm going to talk like that." 10. What assumptions do you find yourself making about people? I try not to assume anything. ~Bonus Question~ How many times a day would you estimate you think about sex? At least once a day. Some days more. Some days much more. |
| sue ellen mischke | Posted – 9/13/2007 10:13:34 AM | show profile 1. What do you covet? To wear a size 4 in designer couture. 2. Have you ever sent a meal back at a restaurant? No...but I should have. 3. Time to toot your own horn---tell us something wonderful aout yourself! I'm pretty. 4. What would constitute the perfect day for you? Wake up. Get cute. Go shopping alone. Meet up with a fav person for lunch. Continue shopping. Then, go home and get cuter and go our some place where lots of people will see how cute I am. Then, have a realllly good cocktail. Then, go home and think about how cute I looked. 5. What would you title your autobiography? Wanting What I Can't Have 6. What are some of the stranger jobs you've held? Worked at my cousin's mob restaurant. 7. Have you ever stolen anything? Yes. Batteries. Because the line was too long. 8. What are some of your oddities? I need constant attention and have not a clue as how to relax or go on vacation for more than two days. 9. What memory is so embarrassing that it still makes you cringe each time you think of it? When I was on a beach in Italy...I was blinded by the sun and when I stood up to put my shirt on over my American bathing suit, I put in on backwards and inside out and didn't notice and all the Italians were laughing at me. And, because I speak Italian, I knew they were calling me an idiot. (They were, really, really laughing loudly. Maybe about ten of them.) 10. What assumptions do you find yourself making about people? That they don't listen. ~Bonus Question~ How many times a day would you estimate you think about sex? once every 60 seconds. |
| GrOoVaL!c!OuS | Posted – 9/13/2007 10:23:58 AM | show profile I totally forgot today was Thursday. So this is a treat! 1. What do you covet? My friend's husband. But I would never, ever act on it. I avoid spending one-on-one time with him because I don't want it to get weird. 2. Have you ever sent a meal back at a restaurant? Yes. Usually when it tastes really bad and I don't have the heart to mush through it. 3. Time to toot your own horn---tell us something wonderful about yourself! I smell really good today. Sprayed a little perfume on before I left the house. Also, I had a really tough work-week last week. And this week, I got major kudos -- publicly! -- for my hard work. I was excited. 4. What would constitute the perfect day for you? It's a Sunday. I wake up early w/o an alarm clock laying next to my loving, thoughtful, sexy husband who spooning me like his life depends on it. We snuggle some more and then our kid rushes in to play. We go out for brunch and then a walk, then head back home to watch football. I call my family back home and everyone's doing well. Nobody wants to borrow money. My kid does something cool for the very first time, like riding a bike or skipping rocks or snapping his/her fingers. My husband reads to me out loud. We all fall asleep in bed together. This would be perfect. But first, I gotta find a husband. 5. What would you title your autobiography? So you guys can use it? No way I'm telling. The cover, though, will have only my Xeroxed handprint. 6. What are some of the stranger jobs you've held? Waitress was the worst. Hated it! 7. Have you ever stolen anything? Yes. I stole a pair of socks from Conway about five years ago. And I stole shoelaces from Modell's about two years ago. On both occassions, I couldn't find sales people to ring me up, despite looking and looking and looking. So I figured, fuck it, I'm just walking out. No one stopped me. And no alarms went off. Go figure. 8. What are some of your oddities? I count steps when I climb them. 9. What memory is so embarrassing that it still makes you cringe each time you think of it? Trying to make small talk with my old publisher once. I was an underling trying to make a good impression and be personable. Let's just say it didn't work and she couldn't of cared less. 10. What assumptions do you find yourself making about people? I make a lot of assumptions with men. That they always want to hit on me...that they're going to sleep with whoever gives up the goods first...that they're not worth the trouble. This is based on a lot of personal experience. But every now and then, I encounter a guy who's not any of these things, and within ten minutes, my chances with him are ruined because I've let my assumptions influence my first interaction with him. ~Bonus Question~ How many times a day would you estimate you think about sex? Hardly ever. On average, 0.5 times. |
| GrOoVaL!c!OuS | Posted – 9/13/2007 10:35:07 AM | show profile Nominees for best answer of the week. I know only a few people have posted their answers so far, but I have to give a shout-out to foto for his embarrassing memory and to angela for her perfect day. Might these be the best answers ever? I think they might. |
| wineaux | Posted – 9/13/2007 10:48:45 AM | show profile 1. What do you covet? I'd love to have a body as good as that girl who was told her outfit was lewd on a South West flight. 2. Have you ever sent a meal back at a restaurant? I put myself through college waitressing, so it is a rare occasion that I will. But, if the food is stone cold, back it goes. 3. Time to toot your own horn---tell us something wonderful about yourself! I am a fabulous cook. So good that I've had chefs tell me there was no need for cooking school and that I should be in the business. I had a catering business and taught cooking classes and worked as a personal chef when I lived in CA and it was all self taught. I think when you are truly passionate about something, you have the opportunity to really kick ass at it. 4. What would constitute the perfect day for you? Taking the family to Paris, shopping, dining, soaking it all in. 5. What would you title your autobiography? Dazed and Confused 6. What are some of the stranger jobs you've had? I once taught gourmet easy-bake oven class to twelve 6 year olds. And the mothers had more fun than the kids did. 7. Have you ever stolen anything? When I was really young, I think I did, but I don't remember what it was. I do remember feeling terrible about it, which is why I didn't continue the practice. 8. What are some of your oddities? I HATE stains on my clothes. I'll throw away something permanently stained. A limp handshake feels like an insult to me. Unexpected loud noises piss me off. Every time I see someone driving a Hummer, I have the distinct urge to flip them off. 9. What memory is so embarrassing that it still makes you cringe each time you think of it? It is too hard to mention. But it's pretty awful. 10. What assumptions do you find yourself making about people? Like someone else mentioned, I assume everyone thinks like me. ~Bonus Question~ How many times a day would you estimate you think about sex? Probably not enough for a young, healthy woman. |
| Mag Girl | Posted – 9/13/2007 10:55:59 AM | show profile 1. What do you covet? A friend's career- she keeps getting the jobs that I would love to have, but she "knows people." 2. Have you ever sent a meal back at a restaurant? Oh yes... 3. Time to toot your own horn---tell us something wonderful aout yourself! My husband's family loves me infinitely more than they did his ex wife :-) 4. What would constitute the perfect day for you? Wake up, have breakfast in bed, have "relations" with my husband, get a massage, get all showered up and cute, get my nails done, go to my (imaginary) book signing, go horseback riding. I would then hop above my (imaginary) private plane to watch a basketball game at my alma mater and get to actualyl sit in one of the good cushy seats researved for donors. 5. What would you title your autobiography? I don't want to give it up, but it's a damn good title :) 6. What are some of the stranger jobs you've held? Nothing out there...but proofreader at an accounting agency was booooooooooooring. Try having an ACCOUNTANT argue grammar rules with you for 30 minutes. Yeah... 7. Have you ever stolen anything? Nope! 8. What are some of your oddities? When I out socks on, I absolutely MUST fold the seam at the toe over onto the top of my foot. Otherwise, that little seam at the end of my toes bothers me all day. 9. What memory is so embarrassing that it still makes you cringe each time you think of it? THere's a few, but one was in sixth grade when the whoel middle school (private school, so small) was on a field trip to a play. I made the mistake of telling my brother I liked a particular guy in 7th grade, and my brother apparently told people. It started flying through the rows like in the telephone game. Then, in the middle of the play, out loud, the guy who I thoguht was so cute said REALLY audibly, Ewww! I wouldn't ever go out with her! And everyone turned around and stared at me. 10. What assumptions do you find yourself making about people? Whenever I see a person with a W sticker on their car, I assume they are super religious morons who don't know how to think for themselves. And when I see someone with a mullet, I assume they have just awoken from being cryogenically frozen for the past 25 years... ~Bonus Question~ How many times a day would you estimate you think about sex? 10 maybe. |
| keltoi2 | Posted – 9/13/2007 11:52:03 AM | show profile 1. What do you covet? Thou shalt not, so I don't. 2. Have you ever sent a meal back at a restaurant? Once or twice, but for very good reason. Myself and many siblings have waitered and we saw what happened to the food of customers who are being obnoxious. It wasn't pretty. 3. Time to toot your own horn---tell us something wonderful about yourself! Ah, where do I begin? I'm beloved by children, pets, and small woodland creatures, respected by my peers, feared by evildoers. ;-) And I've had compliments on many articles I've written over the years (some even being sold for reprints), a few publications I've managed have won awards, and an amateur photo I took of the VietNam Veteran's Memorial in DC was selected in an in-house contest by Life Magazine and later used in a VietNam documentary. 4. What would constitute the perfect day for you? A long hike with my wife on the Appalachian Trail, the West of Ireland, Provence, Tasmania, New Zealand, or about a dozen other spots followed by a post-shower dinner of great food and great wine somewhere outdoors overlooking an incredible vista on a warm summer's night as the sun slowly sets painting the sky the colors of an Easter egg. And then more fun, indoors. 5. What would you title your autobiography? Gotta think on that one. 6. What are some of the stranger jobs you've held? Once had a temp job in college unloading a freight car, alone, of 50 tons of 50-pound bags filled with black powder during two 95-degree days while wearing paper jumpsuits (went through 4 a day) and a respirator. The factory manager said it was used "for medicines". I called Poison Control and learned it was used for asphalt. I called the agency and said they better give me a HUGE raise or I'm not returning for day 2. They did. It took me a week to wash all the powder completely off. Also drove a coffee truck to factories, selling food and drink to the workers, one college summer. It was fun. 7. Have you ever stolen anything? Nope. 8. What are some of your oddities? I love trivia and have a head full of it, I'm pretty good with bird calls, people guess me for 10-15 years younger than I actually am, and I have an extensive toy collection. 9. What memory is so embarrassing that it still makes you cringe each time you think of it? More than a few, and thankfully almost all before I turned 21. 10. What assumptions do you find yourself making about people? Try not to make too many. ~Bonus Question~ How many times a day would you estimate you think about sex? More often than some, not as often as others. |

| Janetblueyes | Posted – 9/13/2007 1:00:08 PM | show profile 1. What do you covet? One of those new four-door Jeep Wranglers. 2. Have you ever sent a meal back at a restaurant? Never, even though there were times when it would have been appropriate to do so. I'm afraid of offending the waitperson and the chef. 3. Time to toot your own horn---tell us something wonderful about yourself! I was nominated volunteer of the year for an organization I am very involved in and was honored at a special awards ceremony where several public officials stroked my ego. I have also been directly involved in saving the lives of several people by using CPR and the Heimlich maneuver. I also have really sexy lips. 4. What would constitute the perfect day for you? A cool and crisp October morning started off with pancakes at my local diner, watching an episode of The Price Is Right, planning my next vacation, a restful afternoon nap, reading a David Sedaris book, eating as much Entenmann's as I want without guilt, a drive to the ocean, finished off by an episode of Dirty Jobs and a bath. 5. What would you title your autobiography? "Onion." Not because I smell like one, but because like an onion, I have many layers. 6. What are some of the stranger jobs you've held? I was a meat wrapper at a butcher store; I worked a temp job at a medical supply company where I spent each day squeezing little packets of surgical lube searching for pinpoint leaks in the foil packets; I was a proctologist's assistant for five hours and assisted in a hemmoroidectomy before quitting on my lunch hour. 7. Have you ever stolen anything? A bracelet from a classmate in first grade and then another bracelet from Woolworth's when I was 14. I still feel guilty about both incidents. And of course there is the usual office crap such as pens and rubber bands. 8. What are some of your oddities? I have perfect pitch and while asleep, I sometimes deconstruct famous symphonies and rewrite them to suit my ear. I am a wealth of useless knowledge and can't be beat at Trivial Pursuit. I really enjoy picking lint off of clothing. I can roll my tongue into a tube and whistle through it. I am double jointed and have made some people almost pass out when I show them what I can do with my limbs. 9. What memory is so embarrassing that it still makes you cringe each time you think of it? In eighth grade one of the handsome jocks asked me in front of the entire class if I would like to go to a movie. I answered "Of course!" He replied, "Well go ahead, cause I'm sure as hell not taking you." I turned beet red as the whole class laughed at me. For some reason that memory still hurts. 10. What assumptions do you find yourself making about people? I tend to assume things about a person based on the car they drive. ~Bonus Question~ How many times a day would you estimate you think about sex? Every fucking minute of the day. |
| ElC | Posted – 9/13/2007 1:44:58 PM | show profile 1. What do you covet? A Smart car. 2. Have you ever sent a meal back at a restaurant? No. 3. Time to toot your own horn---tell us something wonderful about yourself! I'm great at working with kids. 4. What would constitute the perfect day for you? Any day where my husband and I can spend it with our dogs and neither of us have to go to work. 5. What would you title your autobiography? Pushing Daisies 6. What are some of the stranger jobs you've held? An apprentice for a professional dog handler. 7. Have you ever stolen anything? No. 8. What are some of your oddities? Seriously, there are too many to name. I used to carry around my first dog's ashes and I would tell my friends that he wanted to come along. I used to take my "pet" snail with me to work. All the containers in the refrigerator have to be facing forward. OK, I'll stop now. 9. What memory is so embarrassing that it still makes you cringe each time you think of it? Hitting "reply" on an email instead of "forward" so it went to the person it really should not have. But I've heard enough similar horror stories so I don't feel like a total idiot. Misery loves company. 10. What assumptions do you find yourself making about people? Oh so many negative assumptions about Wal-mart shoppers. ~Bonus Question~ How many times a day would you estimate you think about sex? Not quite as much as my husband would like. |
| Bleak Spouse | Posted – 9/13/2007 6:35:31 PM | show profile 1. What do you covet? For Audrey Tautou to offer me her hand in matrimony. 2. Have you ever sent a meal back at a restaurant? Cheese raviolis when I was like 9. 3. Time to toot your own horn---tell us something wonderful aout yourself! I'm one of the best looking loners in the world. 4.

What are some of the stranger jobs you've held? Toaster Tester, Substitute Dishwasher, Pig Shit Shoveler 7. Have you ever stolen anything? Yes. I used to steal packs of chewing gum from Shop-Rite as a kid until my mom caught me, slapped me, and tossed the gum into parking lot. Good for her. I'd never steal again. 8. What are some of your oddities? I can be one of the most reclusive people in the world (Howard Hughes has nothing on me) or the most outgoing and social depending if I'm around the right people. 9. What memory is so embarrassing that it still makes you cringe each time you think of it? I accidentally tackled a Pulitzer Prize winning journalist's 5 year old at a picnic. 10. What assumptions do you find yourself making about people? I assume that deep down they're just like me, that we're all the same, and that the golden rule of do onto others as you'd have em do onto you makes perfect sense. ~Bonus Question~ How many times a day would you estimate you think about sex? Not too much. But when I think of it, I think of how nice it would be to rub up against Audrey Tautou like a slab of beef. |

Cool shower on my freshly tanned skin. Change into a flattering white dress with really high heels that don't blister me. Feast on clams and crabs and beer. Fall drunk and happy into bed. Make love. 5. What would you title your autobiography? Can't tell you, it is in the works. 6. What are some of the stranger jobs you've held? I worked at a tanning salon - so gross! Then there was the Tex-Mex cigar lounge in NY where I sold Herradura shots out of a tequila holster and wore a sombrero and chaps. 7. Have you ever stolen anything? I was a poor kid - so yeah. If I wanted it, I stole it. 8. What are some of your oddities? I love cold sauerkraut - by the jar! 9. What memory is so embarrassing that it still makes you cringe each time you think of it? I can't remember a single one. I must have suppressed them all. 10. What assumptions do you find yourself making about people? That everyone wants something more than what they already have. ~Bonus Question~ How many times a day would you estimate you think about sex? Half-dozen. |
| Bleak Spouse | Posted – 9/13/2007 10:22:13 PM | show profile angela: exact same, meaning year too? That's wild. August 9, 1976. The only person I know I share an exact b-day with is Mexican professoinal wrestler Villano IV. Luckily I make up for that by sharing a b-day with Edith Piaf as well. |
| sue ellen mischke | Posted – 9/13/2007 10:32:22 PM | show profile Yup...same date and year. Not sure about the time of day, though. But I think I look younger than she does. But she's probably a tad prettier. |
| sue ellen mischke | Posted – 9/13/2007 10:35:41 PM | show profile Oh, and I have La Vie en Rose...I played it once while having sex with someone new and he acted really irritated by it and threw a pillow over the speaker. That's the last time I heard Edith Pilaf. |

Hmmm, I don't think so. But you quit after 5 hours and one hemmoroidectomy. What happened? Does the experience continue to haunt you? Do you wish you'd stayed at least until 5pm? |
| Nikongirl | Posted – 9/14/2007 12:44:16 AM | show profile 1. What do you covet? A Toshiba U300 Satellite Laptop. 2. Have you ever sent a meal back at a restaurant? Yes. 3. Time to toot your own horn---tell us something wonderful about yourself! I am honest, loyal and care very much about others. 4. What would constitute the perfect day for you? A 5 hour catamaran trip on the Tiami, floating in the Caribbean with my sweetheart. Photographing a jazz festival in the evening, under the stars and a full moon in Barbados! I enjoy this perfect day every year in January. 5. What would you title your autobiography? I dont see why anyone would care. I am pretty private. It would be like pulling teeth to get me to tell anything worth reading. ;0 6. What are some of the stranger jobs you've held? Roofing and siding with my father when I was growing up. Wardrobe assistant to the Pointer Sisters. Worked for a year at a foreign exchange with brokers, it was crazy. Strippers on the trading floor with whipped crème all over their body, going from chair to chair as each guy had a lick. Plant maintenance. 7. Have you ever stolen anything? Yes, I steal looks at handsome men ;-) 8. What are some of your oddities? I walk very fast. I am a weather freak. I am very intuitive, particularly with things medical, I often just know things, I can sense some things long before anything happens...the older I get, the more anal I become. And,last but not least, I talk back to the news. 9. What memory is so embarrassing that it still makes you cringe each time you think of it? Cant think of anything. 10. What assumptions do you find yourself making about people? I plead the fifth, do not want to alienate anyone. ~Bonus Question~ How many times a day would you estimate you think about sex? More often than some might think. |
