The Lazy Post (70 Question Meme)

First, my thoughts on meme. I love them, sometimes I think they are so incredibly stupid its hard to believe they got to meme status, but I guess you could say that about their biological counterpart, the gene, as well. The words "meme" is modeled after the word "gene" and derives from the Greek word "mimeme" which means "something imitated". In short at meme is "an idea, behavior or style that spreads from person to person within a culture." (Wikipedia)

I like the idea of a cultural "gene".

So here goes the 70 questions. (Some questions are missing, they were deleted by the person who took this before me. I really wonder what was there!)

1. Are your parents married or divorced? Divorced. Just two months ago actually, but my mom has been living with me for a year.


2. Are you a vegetarian? Yes? Pescetarian actually, I still eat fish and seafood.


3. Do you believe in Heaven? No, only on earth.


4. Have you ever come close to dying? Yes; I could of died easily in one of two four-wheeling accidents I've been in. I fell right and broke a collarbone instead of a neck. I don't ride four-wheelers anymore either.


5. What jewelery do you wear 24/7? I have a ring I wear on my right had pretty much every day. No reason, I just never take it off, and I like have a little jewelry on. I also wear a meteorite necklace most days. I like having the constant reminder of the vastness of the universe and eons of time past and future. It helps me remember I am just a very small blip, and my challenges are not as overwhelming as I let them feel at times. This is a very comforting thought to me. When I'm reminded how fleeting existence is here on earth, I make it a priority to live in the moment, and strive for substance and joy in my life.


6. Favorite time of day? Pre-Dawn; especially in the summer.


7. Do you eat the stems of broccoli? Yes, most of them, usually with home made peanut sauce.

17. What is your Hair color? Brown.


18. Future child’s name? I'm not really planning on having any, so I picking out names is beyond silly.


19. Do you snore? Sometimes.


20. If you could go anywhere in the world where would it be? In this world!? That's such a limited scope, but I guess I will say.... New Zealand.


21. Do you sleep with stuffed animals? No. But I do still have some very special one that live on my dresser. And hopefully not in a childish, never-going-to-grow-up kind of way.
