Ten More Things About Me That Border On Boring. No, They Really Are Boring. See For Yourself.
Posted on September 26th, 2007 in Blog, stay-at-home dad
I got tagged by a new reader for another of those 10-question things.
1. What were you doing ten years ago?
Sleeping around, sad to say.
2. What were you doing one year ago?
Not sleeping much, sad to say. Boo is not the world’s best nighttime sleeper. Thank the maker for naps.
3. What are five snacks you enjoy?
- The rest of the cheese stick.
- Half-eaten pretzels.
- A mangled and gnawed apple.
- The crust off the grilled cheese sandwich.
- A dozen doughnuts at one sitting.
4. What are five songs you know the lyrics to?
- The Love Boat theme
- The Brady Bunch theme
- The Gilligan’s Island theme
- “Why Won’t You Love Me, David Duchovny“
- “Everybody Poops,” which I wrote myself, in homage to the book of almost the same name. You should totally get me to sing it for you some time.
From my mother’s collection of my childhood artwork. See, I really would want to buy a dolphin! |
5. Five Things You Would Do If You Were A Millionaire
- Buy a dolphin
- Not become a billionaire
- Have four children as a fashion accessory
- Give police officers $100 bonuses for ticketing illegally loud motorcycles
- Drink more coffee
6. Five Bad Habits
- Not responding to blog comments promptly
- Being judgmental of the judgmental.
- Procrastination. This post took two weeks.
- Loving to start things, hating to finish them.
- Drinking too much coffee
7. Five Things You Like To Do
Play, Dance, Sing, Enjoy the Company of Good People, Drink Coffee.
8. Five Things You Would Never Wear
- My birthday suit (never!).
- A thong.
- I’d wear just about anything else. (I was a drama major at Berkeley — let’s just leave it at that.)
9. Five Favorite Toys
- A stick for digging in the dirt.
- Tomy magnetic refrigerator gears — Boo can be entertained by these for hours.
- This cool tunnel.
- My Nikon D80.
- My coffee maker, which can be set up the night before and also has an insulated carafe. (Heating elements burn coffee.)
- (You thought I was going to say my Harry Potter Deluxe Magical posable figure, didn’t you? It was a close number 6.)
10. Five Things You Hate To Do
- Get warranty service.
- Listen to racists.
- Go to sleep when I know I should.
- Pay bills on time.
- Drink too much coffee. Or not enough.
Stupefyingly boring, I know. Here I pass on the love: I hereby tag Taste Like Crazy (’cause she said she’d only gotten one meme so far in her blog existence), Manda of Coffee-n-Wisdom (coffee, yay!), Dawn of Alex Year One, XBox4NappyRash and Annie of Blooming Marvelous for multi-continental coverage. Oh, and aimee the greeblemonkey and Mike, but I don’t think they ever do memes…
Oh, and of course, Barack Obama.

You’d buy a dolphin?!
Totally. Totally. Wait until you see my kitchen… –Dd.

I rarely do, but I will have to think about it. I am a procrastinator too. I appreciate the tag though.
And I’d buy a dolphin too. Dolphins rawk.

I vote on the dolphin. You could name him Fred. *Sniggers* Thanks for the tag, it’s been posted. *Cheers*

Thanks for the tag! I’ve already done this meme, but since I have a bunch of new readers, I think I should just do it again (that, and my brain is fried, and a post like this is just the ticket to get the blogging rolling again!)
Love those refrigerator gears - just perfect for my almost 12 month old - heading to TRU today!

So…almost a year after you posted this…I stumbled upon it…
And thanks to you, I can’t get the David Duchovny song out of my head now…it will be rattling around in my brain until I get to listen to the radio…and I have two hours left at work…
And yes, i will mention, I have the cd that that song is on!!
