27: The Last NaBloPoMo Meme

Filed under: MeMe,NaBloPoMo,Vanity — Posted by Pocklock at 9:21 pm on Tuesday, November 27, 2007

I swear this will be the last NaBloPoMo Meme; aka: cop-out. I don’t have time to write a post. I’m exhausted from the gym this morning and Mom came home tonight so I’ve been hanging out with her since after work. If I’m not in bed in an hour, I’m going to turn into a pumpkin. I promise something that requires thought will find it’s way to your screen tomorrow. Meanwhile, this one is sorta mildly a little interesting. Sorta. Okay. I lie. Feel free to skip it. Still counts!

What kind of soap is in your bathtub right now? This Aveeno Stress Relief Body Wash. It’s got lavender in it. I like to pretend it works. I also like to pretend I’m tall. And a size 4.

Do you have any watermelon in your refrigerator? No. That season is sorta over around here.

What would you change about your living room? The blinds covering the sliders and building a cabinet next to the fireplace.

Are the dishes in your dishwasher clean or dirty? I believe they are clean. I should empty.

What is in your fridge? Milk, Organic Cranberry Juice, Pink Lemonade, a door full of condiments and various salad dressings, maple syrup, veggies, pitas, baby-food for L’il Foot, and many UFO’s (Unidentified Foiled Objects).

White or wheat bread? Wheat or Whole Grain

What is on top of your refrigerator? Fresh catnip that SIL gave me months ago. I’m drying it out before crushing it up and giving it to The Fat Felines.

What color or design is on your shower curtain? It’s this one.

How many plants are in your home? 1 alive, 1 dead, and 1 aloe plant.

Is your bed made right now? Yep. EHH is the best bed maker.

Comet or Soft Scrub? Soft Scrub with Bleach!

Is your closet organized? I like to think it is, but no. Not really. Definitely could be better.

Can you describe your flashlight? Ah. No. Flashlight is totally a boys job.

Do you drink out of glass or plastic most of the time at home? Glass. And I get shit for the collection of glasses on the nightstand. My record is eight glasses. Any challengers?

Do you have iced tea made in a pitcher right now? Nope. I should do that though. That would be nice.

If you have a garage, is it cluttered? Yes I have one and no, it’s not cluttered. I hate when shit gets put in there that prevents the car from being in there.

Curtains or blinds? Both.

How many pillows do you sleep with? 3 each. 6 total. Drives him crazy. We might end up divorcing over pillows. That and 1% milk.

Do you sleep with any lights on at night? No, but I had to train myself to get used to this. EHH hates any lights when he sleeps and I insisted on a night-light at first. I would turn them on and he would turn them off. Eventually I gave up. Now I have an alarm clock that gives off a ton of light so it’s not so bad, but when the power goes out I completely freak because it’s so pitch black. I have no idea why, but I always wake up when the power goes out. WTF?

How often do you vacuum? Rarely. Unless there’s a visible mess or L’il Foot is coming over.

Standard toothbrush or electric? Standard, but I totally miss my Sonicare. I should dig it out.

What color is your toothbrush? Blue. Always blue.

Do you have a welcome mat on your front porch? Yep. I believe it says Welcome too. And the one in front of the garage door has the Patriots logo on it!

What is in your oven right now? The pizza stoneware.

Is there anything under your bed? Most likely the fat cat, my rubbermaid container of trinkets, and EHH’s gun (so stay away burglar types!).

Chore you hate doing the most? Dishes. Especially the pots and pans. Hate the pots and pans. Loaaaathe the pots and pans.

What retro items are in your home? Retro… retro. I don’t think anything. We’re pretty modern.

Do you have a separate room that you use as an office? No. We used to, but now the home office is shared with the downstairs spare guest suite.

How many mirrors are in your home?7, I think?

Do you have any hidden emergency money around your home? I wish, but no.

What color are your walls? Wow. Should I go room by room? Ground floor: Bathroom = beige, bedroom/office = gray, family room = dark green. First floor: Bathroom = VERY yellow, Kitchen = blueish/green, Dining room = red, Living room = Nantucket Gray which is really an awesome sage green type color, foyer/stairwell = off white. Second floor: Hallway = off white, Den = Dessert Sand (I swear I had no idea it would come out pink!), Den bathroom = awful wallpaper we didn’t strip yet, Master bedroom = Robin’s egg blue, Master bath = dark sea blue. You can see the photos I took almost a year ago here.

Do you keep any kind of protection weapons in your home? Yes. Like I said before, stalkers/burglars/weirdos beware.

What does your home smell like right now? Fabric softener from the dryer.

Favorite candle scent? Clean Cotton.

What kind of pickles (if any) are in your refrigerator right now? None. I threw them out last week. But I love garlic pickles.

What color is your favorite Bible? Um. I don’t have one in the house I don’t think.

Ever been on your roof? no

Do you own a stereo? yes

How many TVs do you have? 5

How many house phones? 3

Do you have a housekeeper? Yes. But I only call her when I’m desperate. She’s not on a schedule. It winds up being around twice a month that she comes in.

What style do you decorate in? Modern. Potterybarn-esque. But the cheaper versions since, wow some of that shit is expensive.

Do you like solid colors in furniture or prints? Solid

Is there a smoke detector in your home? Yup. Daddy’s a fireman and a building inspector! There’s no way we’d get away without having one.

In case of fire, what are the items in your house which you’d grab if you only could make one quick trip? Assuming everyone else is out of the house including the animals, the laptops (pl), my woobie, some photo boxes, I think that’s it. While I’d be devastated, most everything else can be replaced.

    That was one hell of a long Meme and I loved it. Very insightful. What is up with the watermelon question though? I totally laughed my a$$ off.

    I like this meme.

    Now…

    1. I connot tell you how much I admire you for ONLY having catnip on top of your refrigerator. I only hope someday I can reach that point.

    2. I also agree that Aloe plants qualify as neither dead nor alive.

    3. Gralic pickles rule!
