July Duly Asks.......
 

Hey, Newbs, jump in....

This is how we get to know you a tad without you really giving away anything personal..... and a great way for you to know which of us to avoid... ;)

1) Left or Right?
2) How do you count seconds without electronics? Elephants? Mississippis? ....
3) Were you there?
4) Potato Salad or Coleslaw?
5) What is the longest your hair has ever been?
6) What Olympic sport are you best at?
7) Are we your first?
8) Your favorite punctuation mark?
9) Which is physically closest to you right now? -hammer, screwdriver, or pliers (multitools don't count)
10) Fireworks: love 'em, hate 'em. couldn't give a shit?
11) Which food brand are you most loyal to?
12) Which footwear brand are you most loyal to?
13) Best costume or uniform you've even worn (and why was it the best)?

1) Left or Right?

Your left, your le-eft
Your left, right, left
Your military left
Your left, your right, now pick-up the step
Your left, your right, your le-e-eft.

(your other left, soldier)

1) Left or Right? Right-handed for gross motor, left-handed for fine motor. Years of playing the viola really built up dexterity on that side.


2) How do you count seconds without electronics? Elephants? Mississippis? .... "One thousands"


3) Were you there? Wherever I am is automatically there.


4) Potato Salad or Coleslaw? Philosophically, potato salad. But since we can't do potatoes, reality dictates coleslaw when I'm the one cooking. Tried making rutabaga potato salad a few times, but the kids weren't into it.


5) What is the longest your hair has ever been? Mid-back-ish. I was never one of those long haired girls who freaked out about getting it cut.


6) What Olympic sport are you best at? Breaststroke.


7) Are we your first? Not by a long shot, and if that bothers you I have an ex-boyfriend you would get along with famously.


8) Your favorite punctuation mark? Em dash.


9) Which is physically closest to you right now? -hammer, screwdriver, or pliers (multitools don't count) Screwdriver--I keep a Phillips head in my little pen cup in the kitchen for tightening the handle on the apple peeler as needed, plus a complete set of tiny computer/glasses repair bits in the drawer.


10) Fireworks: love 'em, hate 'em. couldn't give a shit? Meh. Despise going to public displays, but have gotten used to shooting off personal sets in our driveway every 4th and New Years.


11) Which food brand are you most loyal to? Sartori cheese.


12) Which footwear brand are you most loyal to? Clark's


13) Best costume or uniform you've even worn (and why was it the best)? My high school ran an "ugly man" fundraiser where you had to dress up as hideously as possible for a week to raise money. One year I raised the most, so I guess those outfits were pretty good.

Slut.

1) Left or Right? I am right-handed.

2) How do you count seconds without electronics? Elephants? Mississippis? One, one-thousand, two, one-thousand...

3) Were you there? Yeah, I was there. I pointed and laughed the whole time.

4) Potato Salad or Coleslaw? Tater salad.

5) What is the longest your hair has ever been? At one time, a thousand years ago, when I was young, I could grab my pony tail just above my belt.

6) What Olympic sport are you best at? Cussing.

7) Are we your first? Of course you're my first. What, you can't feel that?

8) Your favorite punctuation mark? I like the tilde. Is the tilde punctuation?

9) Which is physically closest to you right now? -hammer, screwdriver, or pliers (multitools don't count) Probably screwdriver.

10) Fireworks: love 'em, hate 'em. couldn't give a shit? Meh. They're pretty, and all...

11) Which food brand are you most loyal to? Probably Campbell's, or Red Baron.

12) Which footwear brand are you most loyal to? The cheapest. The best-fitting, most comfortable shoes I've owned were Nikes. They were ~$60 thrity+ years ago.

13) Best costume or uniform you've even worn (and why was it the best)? Vampire Halloween costume. Momdigr made the cape, black, lined in red.

I know, right? Coming up on 17 years of marriage this month.

Oooh! That's the chlorine anniversary! Congratulations!

That was totally one of my favorites -I gave beest a big ole bottle of bleach :) Once we left the traditionals behind (which of course we interpreted freely), I used to try and make him figure out how the gift related to the year :D Then he reciprocated somewhat. :D Miss that guy.

That's a brilliant tradition. You guys rocked at that whole marriage thing.
