BUSTED
By Jimbo, can you believe that? Taking advantage of my sweet disposition like that. Well this is that meme that is making the rounds. LALOLKFATYK which stands for “Learn A Lot Of Little Known Facts About Those You Know”. So - since I don't have much to blog about this is the perfect time to get this done.
WERE YOU NAMED AFTER ANYONE?
When I was younger I said it was after a yellow English tea rose (WTF?! Where did I come up with THAT?!?) But actually it's the Debby Reynolds movie series Tammy and the......
And yes, my name is technically TammY. I changed the spelling in college cause no one ever got it right. Now? Yeah, that's how everyone spells it. You just can't win sometimes.
WHEN WAS THE LAST TIME YOU CRIED?
This morning.
DO YOU LIKE YOUR HANDWRITING?
Are you kidding?!?! I have the WORST handwriting EVER. Seriously, I type everything. If I hand write a note, it's out of desperation and I just want to apologize publicly if you've ever been the recipient.
WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE LUNCH MEAT?
Hmmm- that's kinda tough for me. I'm not a real "sandwich" person. At least not cold sandwiches. I like ham, love MY chicken salad. But not a big Lunch Meat fan. (well, not in the traditional sense of the word, anyway.....)
DO YOU HAVE KIDS?
None of my own. I raised three boys, and had three granddaughters. Right now? I'm just Aunt Tammi to a couple dozen sweethearts.
IF YOU WERE ANOTHER PERSON WOULD YOU BE FRIENDS WITH YOU?
Yeah, I would be. *I* think I'm a pretty good friend, although there are those that would be happy to disagree!
DO YOU USE SARCASM A LOT?
Not as much as I used to. And now it's more when I'm upset than anything.
DO YOU STILL HAVE YOUR TONSILS?
Nope. Lost those bad boys when I was three. It was the beginning of my ice cream addiction.
WOULD YOU BUNGEE JUMP?
With my grace? And my luck? Are you completely out of your mind?!?!?
WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE CEREAL?
Ohh, this one is tough. I'm a real cereal lover......Usually I buy Raisin Bran, it's yummy and good for me. I love granola but only with yogurt. My secret passion? Capt'n Crunch. It's my treat to myself. And with soft serve vanilla ice cream?!?! Holy Smokes - THAT'S good eatin'.....
DO YOU UNTIE YOUR SHOES WHEN YOU TAKE THEM OFF?
Most of my shoes are slip off......keeps things easy. But with my workout shoes.....no. No I don't untie. And I'm feelin' a bit guilty about that.....
DO YOU THINK YOU ARE STRONG?
More than you'll ever know......
WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE ICE CREAM?
Ben & Jerry's Twisted Half Baked. Kind of fitting, wouldn't you say.
WHAT IS THE FIRST THING YOU NOTICE ABOUT PEOPLE?
Normally, eyes. If I'm trollin'......I'm an ass girl. Straight up.
RED OR PINK?
Red. I wear some pink, and my condo was actually painted a beautiful rose color. But.....I LOVE red. It's the main color in my bedroom and my favorite color to wear.
WHAT IS THE LEAST FAVORITE THING ABOUT YOURSELF?
I'm too damned emotional. I hate that. Well, that and the fact that my ass is now the size of a 3rd world country......
WHO DO YOU MISS THE MOST?
My Father.
WHAT COLOR PANTS AND SHOES ARE YOU WEARING?
I'm not. I'm in my jammies....Hey - I'm a work from home blogger, what do you expect?!?!
WHAT WAS THE LAST THING YOU ATE?
2 bites of cherry cheesecake for dinner last night.
WHAT ARE YOU LISTENING TO RIGHT NOW?
The fan in my window and the birds singing outside. I haven't turned on any music yet.
IF YOU WHERE A CRAYON, WHAT COLOR WOULD YOU BE?
Red. I have pretty much a RED personality!
FAVORITE SMELLS?
Hmmmm......the Moonlight Path scent that I wear (gee, that sounds kinda egotistical), fresh flowers (except marigolds - I hate them) Tuscan Spice Blend candles from Pier One.
WHO WAS THE LAST PERSON YOU TALKED TO ON THE PHONE?
Army Wife - she called for our morning chat.
FAVORITE SPORTS TO WATCH?
Do I even need to answer this? FOOTBALL!! Most especially NFL Football - oh and consider this an open invitation to Tammi's Football Sundays, starting in September in THE Valley near you!!!
HAIR COLOR?
Hmmmm - natural it's flat black. Right now is a brown with red highlights. But I've been seriously considering going auburn again - just to shake things up.
EYE COLOR?
Green
DO YOU WEAR CONTACTS?
Like I'm going to stick ANYTHING in my eye on purpose. Plus, I have enough trouble remembering to put on my damned glasses.
FAVORITE FOOD?
All things Mexican. Oh, and homemade soups. And my roast with mashed potatoes and gravy. And.....
SCARY MOVIES OR HAPPY ENDINGS?
While I've come to enjoy scary movies in the last while, I'm still a sucker for those happy endings.
LAST MOVIE YOU WATCHED?
Oy. I love to watch movies.....let's see......the LAST one? You, Me and Dupree. It was......tolerable.
WHAT COLOR SHIRT ARE YOU WEARING?
Again, I'm not. Lavender nightie.
SUMMER OR WINTER?
Fall. But if I have to choose between those two............I'm going to actually say, today, in this heat and no air? Yeah, winter. I've REALLY come to love watching the snow. Of course, I'm sure come January, driving around in all that my answer may well be different.
HUGS OR KISSES?
Huh. I don't remember. But I think I like them both equally.
FAVORITE DESSERT?
My Peanut Butter Pie. And strawberry's - but not together.
MOST LIKELY TO RESPOND?
I don't think anyone will - every one's doin' it already.

Rereading Whirlpool by Elizabeth Lowell. Great suspense book - with sex! :-) What's not to love?!?!

It was a gift from one of my bosses.
WHAT DID YOU WATCH ON T.V. LAST NIGHT?
Let's see....last night was Thursday. Reruns of Reba, CSI: NY.

Stones.
WHAT IS THE FARTHEST YOU HAVE BEEN FROM HOME?
I think Normandy is father away than Costa Rica. But honestly - I'm ready to see how far I can actually go.....
DO YOU HAVE A SPECIAL TALENT?
I used to sing. Pretty well. Now? Not so much. I used to cook MUCH better than I do now. I guess my special talent is I can sell water to a drowning man.
WHERE WERE YOU BORN?
Not real sure. According to the case worker South Bend, In. But I wouldn't want to have to swear to that. We all know how GREAT those damn agency are with record keeping!
WHOSE ANSWERS ARE YOU LOOKING FORWARD TO GETTING BACK?
I'm actually enjoying everyone that's playin'. And since I'm not tagging anyone I sure hope some other folks decide to play along!!
Aww, come on. I've seen your ass, and it's definitely 1st World.
Er, wait...does that make it nicer or bigger?
I meant nicer, of course.
