And Now...Back to ME...

I used to work with a guy who, whenever the lunch conversation focused too much on someone else, he'd say something totally random about himself. So we kind of joked with him that his segue was "...back to ME..." - this is for you, Alfonse.

Usually memes don't come to me until everyone else has done them, so I'm going to just put it "out there." I'm not tagging anyone - and if you decide to run with it too, please comment, and I'll follow. Back to you.

This I got from Pammy:

What I was doing 10 years ago:
Married for two years and loving it - working in Atlanta, at Georgia-Pacific - just about to change jobs to have a less stressful commute from our new home in Marietta.

Five things on my to-do list today
1. Stop spending so much work time on the internet (FAIL).
2. Go to the high school grad night fund-raiser BINGO night (not as bad as I thought it would be, but still - BINGO).
3. Take an overmax inventory of the storeroom (a work thing - every quarter - hate it - had one day to spare - SUCCESS).
4. Take our new signature cards to the bank (SUCCESS).
5. Set an alarm for Joe to get up tomorrow and make sausage with his buddies (I kid you not).

Five snacks I enjoy
1. Anything with cheese
2. Salty-crunchy stuff
3. Alcohol
4. Chips and Salsa, with margaritas (see #2 and 3)
5. Olives

Five things I would do if I were a billionaire
1. Move out, fix this house up right, and bask in its glory
2. Hire a personal trainer and nutritionist. Someone who would kick my ass.
3. Start some kind of animal sanctuary
4. Make sure my neices and nephew are set for college
5. Start a NY franchise of Hanks

Five of my bad habits
1. Interrupting people (I believe this started when I moved to NY)
2. Biting my fingernails. Hai. I am 36 years old, and I still gnaw on my fingers. Blech.
3. Drinking, drinking, drinking.
4. I make suppositions. A lot. And Joe calls me on it, which is good.
5. I lie. But never when it matters. When salespeople call, or when a guy in the mall tries to get me to buy something - I don't know what it is. Rather than just reject them, I lie.

Five jobs I’ve had
1. State 4-H Office Clerk (at UGA)
2. Bookstore Clerk (again, at UGA)
3. If I got paid to play piano at weddings, does that count?
4. I used to sell my baked goods at work - cheesecake, pecan pie, German chocolate brownies...
5. Accountant. I wish to god that was something else.
