Round Robin Tuesday!

Howdy do, dear readers (all 3 of you),

Todays round robin question is: What's your favorite piece of clothing in your wardrobe? Right now...it has to be my favoritest pair of shoes:



I've had them for a couple of months and just CANNOT get over them. I wear them with everything I can get away with. Plus Wolfie thinks I look hot as hell in them...that's ALWAYS a plus!!

Round Robin Tuesday...once again!

So today's question is: Who was the first guy you fell in LOVE love with? How'd it go?
The first boy I fell IN LOVE with was Tim Gothard. I was a freshman in college and he was a junior. It wasn't love at first sight but there was a spark between us from the moment we met and it didn't take long to fall head over. Overall we dated for a little over a year. We even talked about a "future" together after college. I wish I could say some big blowout ended the relationship but I can't. It just kinda fizzled. We both came to a realization one day that we didn't have it or want it anymore. We had gotten so comfortable having each of us in the others life that "love" slowly died and got replaced by "security"... and it happened so slowly that we couldn't even see it while it was happening. After we broke up I vowed to never let that happen again.

PS...We miss you Brookie Brooke!!

Round Robin Tuesday...minus one.

Our beloved Brooke, having the time of her life in Europe, is having to drop out of round robin game for a while...understandably. Lack is wi-fi and having too much damn fun are the culprits...as if blogging with us isn't fun! Whatev's. Pour one out for the homie. :-)

Miss Vonda and I will attempt to hold the fort down till the Brookster returns. So today, we're asked "What is your weirdest obsession?"

I've never been an obsessive person, per se (except for the obligatory "throw my panties and any member of *NSYNC" girl phase when I was younger). If I'm slightly obsessive about anything, though, it would have to be lip gloss. I just checked and I have no less that 4 different kinds in my purse, 3 in my desk and I'm quite sure there are AT LEAST a dozen at the homestead. Why? I don't know. I only have two lips. Need I two dozen types of lip gloss? No. But each are special to me in their own way. I could never give them up. To paraphrase the words of Chandler Bing "I love you all...in very different ways." I can quit anytime I want to...really...I don't have a problem. :-)

Besides...The wolfman likes the way my lips taste when I wear gloss. What other justification for gloss do I need than THAT?!

Round Robin Tuesday!

1. the most embarrassing thing you've done to get the attention of a boy?
In high school, one of my best guy friends wouldn't pull the trigger and ask me to our senior prom. He wanted to...I wanted him to...everybody else thought it was a no-brainer. For some unknown reason, though, he was too nervous to ask me.

So...one Friday night I'm out with some friends. At one point, we were at McDonald's just sitting around eating and having a good time and he walks in with a couple of friends. He comes over and sits down with me, we talk and laugh and our conversation starts going in a direction that makes me think "ok...he's going to ask me". He kisses me on the cheek, says he'll talk to me later and gets up to leave. I'm done with it. I get up ON THE TABLE and proceed to read him the riot act about not having the balls to ask me to prom...at the TOP OF MY LUNGS. When I'm finished, I realize the entire place is silent...and everyone is staring at me. I just stand there...on the table. He finally says "will you go to prom with me?" and after a long pause I respond "sure". I climb down, find my seat and he continues on out the door with his friends. I was completely embarrassed for the rest of the night.

He told me later that it was the funniest yet the coolest thing he'd ever seen. Oh...and we had an AWESOME time at prom. :-)

2. high school: great time or horrible time? why?
I loved high school. I wasn't one of the "popular" people (thank goodness) but I had a great group of friends and a great time. I belonged to just about every extracirricular group I could join and I played on the volleyball team and ran track. I was always busy and just had a really great time.

3. family member you're closest to and why?
I asked this question not because I love see and hear other people talk with great affection about their healthy family relationships. I don't have family to speak of. I'm an only child, never knew my dad and don't speak to my mother. I guess the person I was closest to till she died was grandma Betty. She died when I was 19 and I was devastated. Growing up, I spent many a night at grandma Betty's house. She was such a sweet, loving, giving woman. If there was ever one person I didn't want to disappoint, it was her. Even now, if I fuck up I think to myself "grandma Betty would be so disappointed with that". Not a day goes by that I don't think about her and I miss her dearly.

I suppose the reason I like "True Blood" so much is because I can related to both Sookie and Tara so well: Sookie because of her relationship with her grandmother and Tara because of her relationship with her mother.
