Interview With a (Weird) Blogger

I agreed to be interviewed by two bloggers, Julia and Chelle. I am going to answer Julia's questions here since she asked an odd question (#3) and I have an odd answer with a few photos wouldn't you know?! And Chelle, I haven't forgotten you, I'll get to your questions soon.

1. What are your favorite shoes to wear - or do you prefer to be barefoot?

I used to prefer to go barefoot but then I discovered that I don't get to either sweep or vacuum my floors as often as they need it and they tend to get crunchy because my children are messy and lazy (they don't sweep or vacuum either) and I HATE to step on crunchy stuff barefooted so now I wear shoes. I prefer something comfortable that I can slip into easily. If you know of a shoe that I might like, let me know! I'm always looking.

2. What is the greatest lesson life has taught you?

Whatever doesn't kill you will make you stronger. (whether you want to be stronger or not!) I love the saying in the movie "Aladdin" when Aladdin says something to the effect that "It's amazing what you can live through!" after realizing that even though a genie can't kill you, he can sure hurt you! I've been so amazed at the things I've lived through in this life and the pain I have felt watching my daughter struggle with her medical problems. I've had people mention that I'm a very strong person. Well, I have to be strong... I don't necessarily want to be. It also helps to have support from loved ones and a sense of humor. Check the next question.

3. What is the oddest thing you have done?

Here's the fun stuff. hehe... People usually see my reserved, serious side but I really can be a nut, too. Before I cut all my hair off last week my husband took some picture of me being silly. I used to do "Cousin Itt" imitations. Jessica got in on the fun too. I can't believe I am posting these amazingly strange pictures but hey, you asked for it!
Karl said that the first picture looked like he had taken a picture of the back of my head with sunglasses so I put my hands up by my face so you could see it really wasn't the back of my head. That is my long hair brought up and over my head and over my face. Yeah, I know... I'm weird.

Yikes! I can hardly breathe in here! See? It really wasn't a stunt... I wonder how Cousin Itt can stand it?

Jessica wanted in on the action. Her hair wasn't as long or as thick as mine but hey, we had fun. At least you can't see how blue she is, right?



4. If you were to dye your hair some other color than typical hair color (ie, blond, black, etc. would be typical) what color/s would you go for?

I confess, I do color my hair but it is a typical hair color. I guess I would have to go for pink. I love pink and so does Jessica.

5. Can you roll your tongue?

Hey, what else do you expect at 4:00am?! ROFL!
