[The Wisdom of a Distracted Mind] Meme Madness!

I promised Dawn I'd do this meme, and though I'm not that big of a fan of such things, this one seems like a fun thing to do. Please feel free to steal it if you wish.

  17. What are you wearing right now?

  18. Shorts and a t-shirt.

  19. Did you dream last night?

  20. Yes. Everyone dreams. But, I don't remember it. I just remember waking up and wanting steak really badly.

  21. When did you last laugh?

  22. Somewhere around question #8.

  23. What is on the walls of the room you are in?

  24. The usual things. Some white pine paneling (real wood, even), some pictures, art, whips, chains, some raw meat and a telephone.

  25. Seen anything weird lately?

  26. Nope. But, I have a weird definition of what is and isn't weird.

  28. It's not entirely unlike getting slugged in the face by a very nice old woman.

  62. I think they are nothing more than a product of our creation. For some reason, we've got this bizarre obsession with celebrities that goes beyond the work they do and it requires a nearly constant invasion into the lives they lead. Personally, I think celebrities should just be left alone to go about their lives like any other normal person, and if they want the attention, let them get a vapid reality show like Gene Simmons, Denise Richards, or whoever.

  63. If you’re in a room with two beds,which one would you choose?

  73. Who told you he/she loved you last?

  74. Some woman named Christine.

  75. Last furry thing you touched?

  76. DogCat. He's currently cowering/sleeping beside me since the fireworks really freak the poor, little furball out.

  77. How many drugs have you done in the last three days?

  78. Lots.

  79. How many rolls of film do you need to get developed?

  80. I actually found a camera a couple of days ago that has a roll of film in it, and I've not used that camera in about a decade. So, it should be pretty interesting to see just what the hell is on there.

  97. If you could punch 1 person in the face, who would it be?

  98. George Bush. I'd like to see just what kind of "cowboy" that petulant little wannabe really is.

  99. What is the closest object to your left foot?

  1. Ha! Yes, I did enjoy that. Oddly enough, we must shop at the same shoe store, except my style of shoe is called The Beth. Mine are more delicate and ladylike, but they are also transparent. Go figure!
