Vivienne from Thrifted Shift passed on the Liebster blog award to me. Which was very nice of her. She had a set of questions for me to answer so, here goes.
1. 10 x 10 = ___ + 36
100 + 36 I knew the answer, but I looked it up to just to be safe.
2. "Twas brillig in the slithy toves did gyre and gimble in the wabe." Discuss.
Ugh! I had to look this up, because I didn't know
what the ef she was talking about.
It's the JABBERWOCKY by Lewis Carroll
I'm pretty sure we had to study it in 10th grade
English class, and I hated it.
I do think the book Through the Looking Glass, is ok.
It's not my fave book or anything. The man must have
been very creative. Personally I think he was
probably on drugs, but I didn't see anything that
confirmed that.
3. What is your favorite outdoor activity?
Um, watching a concert, but I don't know if that qualifies as an activity, so I say rollerblading and bike riding.
Although, NOT in the heat of a Texas Summer.
4. Define irony.
My life. I looked this up too. Irony is a contradiction of saying one thing that means the exact opposite.
Like, if I said, I make the best grilled cheese sandwiches. Then I actually burn one, and have to scrape the black burnt stuff off, in order to eat it.
6. Water or wine? Choose and defend.
Always water. I don't really like to drink alcohol.
I can act like an @$$ pretty well on my own, without it. ;)
I'm the one at the party that everyone thinks is drunk,
when all I've had to drink is water.
You all know, I'm not at all shy.
7. Is Puget Sound saltwater or freshwater?
I had to look up what Puget Sound is because I
knew it wasn't the sound of someone punching the
pudgy part of my stomach.
Puget Sound is a sound made in water in a section of the Washington sea. So, based on that, I would say saltwater.
However, knowing Vivienne, I bet it's a trick question, and the real answer is probably both freshwater and salt water.
8. Do you like Tetris?
No, I do not like Tetris. I've never been into video games. I'd rather read, write, do art, play the guitar, connect with people, play a card game, board game, or watch TV.
9. If you just made yourself the perfect sandwich, set it on the coffee table, got yourself a beverage, and you came back to an empty plate and a very happy looking dog, would you be mad?
I would be sooo darn mad! Probably because it took a lot of work for me to make that sandwich, and I'm not sure the food would be appropriate for a dog to eat.
I wouldn't want the dog to get sick.
10. What's under your bed?
Hopefully nothing, but I'm fairly certain dust.
Although, I'm too lazy to check.
11. Why do "flammable" and "inflammable" mean the same thing?
I didn't know they did. I looked that up too.
My answer is the English language doesn't make a whole lot of sense.
Dude those questions were tough.
That felt like a school assignment.
I'm gonna break the rules,
and not pass the award onto anyone.
Therefore keeping the torturing down to a minimum. ;) (Vivienne I'm joking).
