1. Do you believe in the unknown and Mystics?
A. I believe there are unknowns in the world. I am not sure what the question means by "Mystics."
2. How do you tell time? Do you use a watch or your phone and why?
A. I use a watch and a clock on the wall, because I always have. I sometimes ask Alexa. I very seldom use my phone for the time.
3. How do you stay cool in the summer?
A. With air conditioning from a heat pump.
4. Egg yolk or white?
A. Both.
5. What is your current on-repeat song?
A. I don't have one, but I woke up with Froggy Went A-Courtin' as an earworm this morning. Does that count?
6. What is your favorite sound in the world?
A. The E string on a guitar.
7. What's the must-have-items in your bag?
A. My asthma inhaler, credit cards, and a brush.
8. When you're dressing up, which one you put on first: pants or tops?
A. Tops.
9. What is the one thing you wish you could take back?
A. I am stuck with a 2014 Camry. It's not a bad car but I don't love it. We had to buy one in a hurry because the old one crapped out. The 2014 car only has 62K miles on it, so it's not going anywhere. I wish we could have taken our time and found a car I liked better.
10. What is your pet peeve?
A. At the moment, it's the lack of capital letters at the beginning of the sentences in this meme, which I am having to fix. Otherwise, I am awfully tired of really stupid people, because there seems to be a lot of them around these days.
11. Have you ever been ashamed after buying something frivolous? What?
A. I don't buy frivolous things. We have purchase rules in our house.
12. What dessert would you eat even if you were beyond full?
A. I don't know. The meringue off a pie, maybe.
13. Sweet or spicy?
A. Sweet.
14. Which website do you visit most often?
A. My google email.
15. Which countries/states have you visited and which one did you like the most?
A. I have been to Spain and France. The states I have visited include North Carolina, South Carolina, Florida, Georgia, Virginia, Pennsylvania, Maryland, New Jersey, New York, a bunch of the states in between Virginia and California, including Kansas and Illinois, and Wyoming. I would love to go back to Paris, but I would also like to see the Grand Canyon again as an adult.

I used to be much more of a purist - some called me a grammar Nazi, which I would dispute - over certain punctuation, capitalization, and spelling, especially its/it's. I have largely surrendered in non-academic docs such as blogs. Two generations of people write on their phones and not only do they not capitalize, but they initialize everything, IMHO.
ReplyDeletesorry about the capitalization. I don't generally edit entries when I copy them. I guess maybe I should. I do always change "is" to "are" in Saturday 9, tho.
ReplyDeleteEnquiring minds want to know . . .about your purchasing rules? If that is too nosy of a question, I won't be offended if you don't answer. I'm married to a CPA and when we were younger, we had a few more unspoken rules. I probably wouldn't buy anything that cost over a $1000 without telling him about it before hand. He would love for us to live on a strict budget, but I've never been very good with that :-). I am very thankful for his ability to save. It used to make me so mad when we were younger, but it was very wise.
ReplyDeleteOh, I don't mind. Our rules are we don't purchase anything that costs more than $100 without discussing it with one another first, and if something isn't on sale or the sale isn't ending right away, the other rule is to wait a day before purchasing. We also have a general rule about not purchasing "sitty around stuff," aka knick-knacks (books excluded), so mainly all we buy is food and clothing, anymore.
DeleteNot being a car person, I'm curious: what would you look for in a new car next time around?
ReplyDeleteIt rarely gets hot enough in the UK for air-con in the home. Ah - the grammar thing is also a bit of a peeve of mine. Also the use of American spellings but I can tolerate that because the questions mostly come from American websites. Perhaps Bev should steal a few UK ones (if there are any). I flew over the Grand Canyon in a helicopter and also in a plane on the way home from California.
ReplyDelete:o)
