Random Dozen

This weeks Random Dozen is from 2nd Cup of Coffee, and I have to say Linda does an amazing job with these questions and keeping this up, unlike me who can barely do a Musical Monday. Yes I know, pathetic

1. Do you use the labels various charities send you as “free gifts?” Yup, my mommy did, so when I sent letters I would use her address labels.

2. What is your favorite time of day (or night) for skywatching? Night, I get to see Orion's belt.

3. What is the most adventurous you've ever been with trying a new food? (Keep it G-rated please) Trusting Bob with feeding me, he ended up feeding me fried calamari, I still like it, but I was not a happy little girl when he told me I just ate squid.

4. Have you ever heard a rock sing? (Trust me, there's a reason for this one!) Have you? (can I get the reason now?)

5. If you could learn a language you don't presently speak, what would it be? Spanish, just so I can stop getting emails in Spanish/know what my library director is emailing (really long story to that one, maybe I'll make a blog about it)

6. Al Capone's tombstone read, “My Jesus, Mercy.” If you could write your own epitaph, what would it say? "I didn't really die, if you want to find me, go to my library"

7. If you were a famous musician who was known by one name, like “Cher,” “Sting,” or “Jewel,” what would it be? It doesn’t have to be your first name, but it can be, if you’d like. Troi (like Dianna Troi from Star Trek)

8. Have you ever been inordinately “into” a television show? Possibly, I don't know

9. When you sneeze, do you go big, or do you do that weird “heenh!” sound that makes people think you’re going to blow your brains out? Any other variation we should know about? I make a little squewk, my brother and father make fun of me for it.

10. Do you still read an actual newspaper that you hold in your hands, or do you get your news elsewhere? I read the newspaper, but also watch the news

11. Are you a good speller? Nope, writing my novel helped me, and then sending emails to people like Mrs. T, E, and J I'll get a whole spelling list back, but since using Firefox, they have a little red line appear under a word you misspelled :)

12. At what time each day do you start thinking about Lost lunch? Lost, never, don't really like the show. . .Lunch, usually when I get hungry and I had breakfast already.

Jill-Thanks, I use http://www.thecutestblogontheblock.com/ for my background, and I love my library, so I've declared that when I die I'll be a nice ghost and help the librarians shelve books and stuff :)

Skoots1mom- Thanks :) My brothers and father still make fun of me when I sneeze, so then I start hiccuping, which they say I hiccup weirdly also.

Nel-Thanks Nel :)
