Friday Meme

UPDATE: Barbara Vey, Publishers Weekly blogger and all-around fantastic lady, blogged about me today. Check out her blog and please leave her a comment. She is a wonderful supporter of writers and we definitely want to keep her around for years to come!

Got in late last night - delays at the airport (what else is new), so I've only been asleep for a couple of hours and am not thinking fast on my feet. Lucky for me, my friend, Wendy Roberts, tagged me with a meme, so I don't have to come up with content for today. So here goes:

What is your favorite “pig-out” food?

Wow! This one is tough. I’d have to say it’s a toss-up between nachos and pizza. (with chocolate after, of course)

Of all the airports you’ve been in, which one would be the best one in which to be stuck for 12-15 hours?

Ugh – airports. The problem I’ve found with most airports is that they haven’t adjusted to new security codes so all the good stores and restaurants are on the entry side of security. With some lines taking an hour or more to go through, you can’t afford to tarry on the wrong side of the security gate, so I miss most of the good shopping/eating. DFW (in Dallas) has done it right – the best eating/shopping is INSIDE security and there are air trans to take you to other terminals – still INSIDE security.

Ultimately, though, a first class seat is far more comfortable than any airport seat and you get free drinks. So if I had to be anywhere for 12-15 hours, I’d rather be on the plane sitting in first class. :)

If you were in a “Noah” situation, which animals would you take with you? Which would you leave behind?

Well, heck, I guess you have to take them all or you crash the eco-system. But if you want to pretend that wouldn’t happen, then I’d take my Sheltie, Bogey, and a good mate for him so we could have little Bogey’s, my cat Vinnie, the metrosexual and a bunch of chickens. Why chickens you ask – food factory. You get eggs until they’re too old to lay, then you get fried chicken.

I’d leave politicians.

Think back to your childhood. What was something you were looking forward to doing/being as an adult? Have you done/been it?

The first thing I wanted to be when I was an adult was a jockey. Well, I’m 5’8”, so that’s probably not going to happen. But I’ve ridden a few horses in my day.

Which one entertainer would you like to have attend your funeral?

Johnny Depp doing Captain Jack


I tag Kelly Parra (I can't wait to hear who she'd want at her funeral)

Have a great weekend, everyone!!!!!

I'd leave spiders and cockroaches off the ark. *g* And probably snakes, too. Hate 'em all! But, yeah, politicians are a good choice, too!

ROFL re Johnny Depp as Captain Jack Sparrow at your funeral!

LOL Jana! I knew you'd have some great answers :)

I would totally leave snakes off the arc...and there is no wonder I'd rather have at my funeral other than Cap'n Jack!

Great answers Jana!
