Saturday 9: I Wonder What She's Doing Tonight?

Welcome to Saturday: 9. What we've committed to our readers is that we will post 9 questions every Saturday. Sometimes the post will have a theme, and at other times the questions will be totally unrelated. Those weeks we do "random questions," so-to-speak. We encourage you to visit other participants posts and leave a comment. Because we don't have any rules, it is your choice. We hate rules. We love memes, however, and here is today's meme!

Saturday 9: I Wonder What She's Doing Tonight

1. Have you ever lost a lover and spent way too much time wondering what they were doing? No. Once it is over, it is over.

2. What was your favorite vacation ever? Wow. I'd have to say the trip to Palm Springs, California in June 1999 was the most incredible trip. Of course, Montana in June 2009 was top shelf, too. It's tough to pick just one vacation...

3. Do you like surprises? If yes, what kinds? Or are you one of those people who absolutely has to know what's going on before it happens? I like some surprises, but not all. Some are better than others. It depends on what kind of surprise we are talking about. Gift surprises are always nice. People showing up out of the blue is not so nice.

4. Have you ever written a poem? Feel free to share one. Or even a dirty limerick is OK. I'm not a poet by any means. I jut blog.

5. Did anything interesting show up in your mail lately besides the bills? Um... I haven't yet gotten today's mail. I will have to return to this question later. I can say very few bills come in the mail. I prefer e-mail so there is less paper wasting.

6. How many of your friendships have lasted more than ten years? Which of your current friends do you feel will still be important to you ten years from now? Family members don't count. No, I wouldn't count family in that question... although I'm not friends with many in my family, so why not? I'm very close to my one cousin. Anyway, for strictly friends, I have seven or eight long-term friendships that are well over ten years old. And those same friends will be there in the future, near and far.

7. Do you own a pet? If so, do you buy them presents for holidays? Do you consider your pet(s) spoiled? If you don't own one, do you think you will one day? I have two cats. I do buy them gifts for Christmas and sometimes just because. Cats are by nature spoiled. And I will always have cats.

8. It's Friday afternoon and you're planning your weekend. What's on your agenda on a hot August night? Um, laying in my hammock, looking at the stars or twined up with my husband on the couch talking and watching the week's shows. I'm not one to go out.

9. What's your worst nervous habit? Easy - I bite the inside of my lower lip. It's a terrible habit and the area inside there is nothing but scar tissue. However, that is better than biting my nails, which is very visible. I'll take my nervous habit over any easily seen one anytime.

Interesting Aftermath a From Season Five of "MasterChef"

Do I agree with this? You will have to read it first and decide for yourself. I had long since made up my mind before finding this article. MasterChef Season 5 Fixed: Courtney Lapresi Won Finale After Getting Preferential Treatment – Former Stripper Favoritism BY  STORMY ELIZABETH  ON SEPTEMBER 23, 2014 "They say if you can’t take the heat, you should get out of the kitchen, but what if you like it hot? If you’ve been watching  MasterChef this season 5 , you may have noticed that one contestant in particular seems to  be “winning” challenges  when her dishes don’t seem to be quite up to it.  Courtney Lapresi  has been billed as an “aerial dancer” on the show. So what exactly is that, you ask? It’s a fancy word for stripper. You may term what she does as burlesque, but nekked is nekked and she takes off her  clothes  when she dances, so you have to call them as you see them. Plus is it really...

The Longairc-Green Family

This is a family that was on Nanny 911 , the precursor to Supernanny , which airs on Wednesday nights. While Supernanny is a better production and leaves out some of the dopey American-isms of stupidity (such as the opening scene with a much older nanny head whose television showing the family and their issues turns around into a painting on the wall), this show has its value. These families are clueless or don't bother to try and definitely need help. This family is an exception in that the mother couldn't care less what the monsters do and will do anything to mollify them. The father is more consistent and definitely takes a much more disciplinary stance, but the mother undermines it at every step of the way. The two boys are so unbelievably rude, I'd've killed them where they stood. The little girl only wanted a moment of attention and was not doing anything negative, and the mother was awful to her. The nanny, Nanny Stella, spent the first day observing. When she s...

Shocking!

I always open my day at work by starting up my various programs that I'll bounce back and forth between throughout the insanity that is my normal workday. And they are always in the same order: Internet Outlook Microsoft Excel Microsoft Word The timekeeping program, GenPro, is always running. This is not me being unbelievably anal or just a little OCD, this is logic. I know excatly where everything is. It's just good organisational skills. When I open Outlook it is almost entirely for the e-mail. Yes, I do know how to use all of Outlook (well, 80% of it, any way, but since I use my belovèd Franklin Covey Time Management system (the physical book, not the electronic solution), I only use Outlook for e-mail. What is so shocking, you may ask? Be patient, I'm getting to that. I open the Internet and the default page is Wikipedia, in English. I happen to love that site and skim over whatever interesting things it may have, such as: Today's Featured Article The word thou was...
