Anna and Troy’s Weblog

So, I’ve been tagged with the 20 Questions meme by my pal Chris VanderWal.  So let it be ordered, so let it be done.  Rules:

A)  People who have been tagged must write their answers on their blogs & replace any question that they dislike with a new question. (I haven’t changed any questions.)

B) Tag 8 people to answer the questions.

1. How many songs are on your iPod?

617: Sad, I know.  I am just not much of a techno-phile….but I am trying to learn more.

2. What music would you want played at your funeral?

I haven’t really ever thought about this……I am going to keep answering questions, and maybe I will get back to you.

3. What magazines do you have subscriptions to?

None.  My husband keeps getting Golf Digest, even though his subscription ran out almost 6 months ago.

4. What is your favorite scent?

Lavender Johnson & Johnson baby lotion.  I also SOMETIMES like things that smell like vanilla….but it depends on the vanilla.

5. If you had a million dollars that you could only spend on yourself, what would you do with it?

PAY OFF DEBT!  Pay off our house, or maybe move.  Take a really nice really long (2 weeks maybe?) vacation.

6. What is your theme song?

Again, haven’t thought much about it……maybe this lack of musical thinking is why there are only 617 songs on my ipod.

7. Do you trust easily?

If we are talking about profound, trust with your secrets and your life sort of trust….definitely not.  But I do give people the benefit of the doubt most of the time…..assuming that most people are good at heart…..often this goes on for far too long, and once the tables have turned….and you have gone on my official “bad person” list, it takes an awful lot to get off it.

8. Do you generally think before you act, or act before you think?

I definitely think first, often too much.

9. Is there anything that has made you unhappy these days?

Our very busy weekend travel/work schedule.  I think that the next time we have an “uncommitted” weekend is in the middle of November.  Even though most of our commitments are pretty fun and definitely necessary…..the schedule sort of sucks.

10. Do you have a good body-image?

If you had recently gained 15 pounds all in your belly  would you have a good body image?  If I were surrounded by penguins maybe the story would be different.

11. Is being tagged fun?

I am with Chris, I like reading other people’s answers

12. How do you spend your social networking (Facebook, etc.) time?

I check Facebook at least once a day and I try to read my friend’s blogs at least once a week.

13. What have you been seriously addicted to lately?

Ice cream.

14. What kind of person do you think the person who tagged you is?

I think this question is a blatant “warm fuzzy” machine……but…..that being said……

Chris is a very intelligent funny, warm, and caring sort of guy.  He is committed to staying connected with his friends, often overcoming the challenges of distance and time (I believe this to be a decidedly rare quality).  He is often overly opinionated (one of the reasons I like him) and can talk a blue streak.  He loves dogs, adores his wife, and has a genuinely kind heart and a strong moral compass.

15. What’s the last song that got stuck in your head?

I woke up with that sort of new Rhianna song in my head…..SOS…..strange, I know.   I have no explanation.

16. What’s your favorite item of clothing?

Currently, a pair of super comfy billowy capri length maternity pants that sit under my belly without squeezing me.   I would wear them every day if I could.

17. Do you think Rice Krispies are yummy?

Yes.  Especially when they are made into rice krispy treats.  Yum yum yum.  I also like rice krispy treats made with coco krispies and those toasted coconut marshmallows.  It is a super decadent version of the traditional rice krispy treat.  I highly recommend it.

18. What would you do if you see saw $100 lying on the ground?

Of course I would return it if I knew who it belonged to….otherwise I would probably spend it at Target.  That is really where most of my money goes.  If there was a “Target” piece of pie in my microsoft money pie chart, it would be pretty big.

19. What items could you not go without during the day?

My toothbrush.

20. What should you be doing right now?

Getting ready for work and working on my “plan to make our Arthur Murrays rock big time.”

**  As far as tagging 8 people goes, I am not sure that 8 people actually read my blog.  So I suppose I should just tag everyone that reads my blog and see what happens……
