Slacker Taggee

Lucy tagged me on Sunday, and I'm a slow-poke, so I'm just now getting around to answering... but I swear I have a good excuse. I wrote "The End" today on the final draft of Granny's Booty! I'll do an edit this weekend, fix a few things, and then it'll be off to crit partners and beta readers. Woohoo!

On to the tagging...
Two Men I’d Love to Date if I Were Single (and they were single and real)
1. Mr. Honey (He's just so much fun, I'd do it all over again)
2. The hero from Granny's Booty (hehehe)

I Am Wearing Right Now
Pajamas (Hey, you're just lucky I showered today)

Two Things I Would Want in a Relationship
1. Respect
2. Laughter (Just like Lucy!)

Two of My Favorite Things to do
1. Tease Mr. Honey
2. Play Pirates!

Two Things I Want Very Badly At the Moment
1. To be able to take the good cold medicine
2. To sell Granny's Booty

Two things I did recently
1. Had lunch with a new friend
2. Finished my final draft

Two things I ate today

1. Mr. Honey
2. Jos, online

Two things I’m doing tomorrow
1. Laundry

Two Favorite Holidays
1. Talk Like a Pirate Day
2. Casmir Pulaski Day (at least, it was one of my favorites growing up. It occasionally meant I got my birthday off from school)

Two Favorite Beverages
1. Root beer
2. Homemade lemonade

Two Things about me, things you may not have known
1. I was in a sorority in college, despite being one of the least likely candidates in the world to ever join a sorority
2. Mr. Honey was my boyfriend before he was aware of that little fact

Two places I have lived
1. Minneapolis, Minnesota
2. Rolla, Missouri

Two of my Favorite Foods
1. Baked potato soup

Two Places I’d rather be right now
1. In a cabin with a full fridge and roaring fire while it snows outside
2. In a large bathtub filled with bubbles (and warm water, of course) with a book at my side and soft music playing in the background. Oh, and some nice strong hands rubbing my shoulders would be nice, too.

Tagged!

It's been a while, so I should've seen it coming. I got tagged by Lucy to say 8 unique/interesting things about myself, so here goes nothing.

1. My DNA and fingerprints and retinas are totally and completely unique from everyone else... just like everyone else. (Thanks, Mr. Honey!)

2. My mouth is the only location on my body I've ever had surgery. I've made up for lack of locations with the quantity of times I've opened wide for a scalpel.

3. I don't like to eat cold apples. I much prefer them at room temperature.

4. The doctor and I can't agree on a specific day that baby Honey is due. By my advanced calculations, he should arrive March 25. The sonogram said March 26. By the doctor's formula, it's March 30, but the doctor doesn't take Leap Year into account, so I say it should be March 29. All this, of course, doesn't mean a hill of beans, since Baby Honey will arrive whenever he thinks it's his due date, and since he can't tell me that at this point, nor will he probably understand the concept of calendar dates for several years to come, the entire argument is moot. But I still like to think about it. So, Baby Honey is due March 25, 26, 29, and 30, though we're all hoping I'm not in labor on all of those days.

5. In order to motivate myself to work on the re-writes and edits of my latest story, I decorated my office with peel-n-stick pirates. (It's seriously cool.)

6. For the first collage I ever did, last month at the Moonlight and Magnolias conference, I turned Tony Bennett into a pirate.

7. I am a sock whore, and all my favorite goofy socks have descriptive names. Fuzzy socks, smiley face socks, cookie monster socks, orgasmic socks, etc.

8. My dreams have gotten more normal since I've been pregnant. Or if not more normal, they haven't gotten any weirder. Too bad, really. I enjoy those superhero dreams!

I'm not tagging anyone, because like Kristen, Lucy already tagged most of the people I know and visit on a regular basis. Hehehe!

Eight Things...

Aura tagged me to write about my random facts and habits.

Here are the rules:
1. Each player starts with eight random facts/habits about themselves. (Oh, boy...)
2. People who are tagged need to write their own blog about their eight things and post these rules. (Check.)
3. At the end of your blog, you need to choose eight people to get tagged and list their names. (Gah! Noooooo!!!)
4. Don’t forget to leave them a comment telling them they’re tagged, and to read your blog.

And now for my randomness:

1. When I was in fifth grade, I got to play the Virgin Mary in my school's Christmas play. I sang a solo. Not a single person complimented me afterwards. So, I sang louder in church from then on.

2. Mr. Honey and I did the whole long-distance dating thing for a year and a half. We lived in the same town for a total of 5 months (2 one summer, 3 the next) before getting married.

3. I held the title of "Sandwich Artist" when I worked at Subway in high school. I worked there for one year and nine months. It's the second-longest job I've ever held in my life.

4. Since graduating college six years ago, I've had six different jobs, and I'm searching for my seventh.

5. I've lived in five different states, and am about to move to my sixth.

6. I was raised to believe that cats are the spawn of the devil. Now I look forward to getting home and having mine meet me at the door.

7. I'm a leg-shaker. Yep, one of those annoying people who can't sit still for anything. Well, not at work anyway.

8. My favorite restaurant in the whole world is a pie shop in Rolla, Missouri, called "A Slice of Pie." They make the best chicken salad, the best warm rolls, and the best pie.
