Melissa at Books and Things was tagged in an award and rather than finding bloggers to accept the award, she just asked us to answer some questions. So here it goes.
1. If you had written a book of your life, what would be the title.
What a Crazy Ride!
2. In the vein of a 6 word story... tell me about yourself.
Mom, wife, blogger, writer, dreamer, passionate.
3. Who would be your top choices in your book boyfriend harem?
Okay, I'm old so I go for the older guys. Like, Gerard Butler and I can't get Gabriel Aubry out of my head since Jenny at Supernatural Snark put him up as Ethan from the Chicagoland Vampires.
As far as characters, I know he's too young for me, but I love Adam from If I Stay, and Where She Went and Zachary Moore from the Shade/Shift and soon to be release Shine series. Dang, the boys I read about are way too young!
4. Which character in a book would you like to be?
Finley Jane from The Girl in the Steel Corset, Deznee Cross from Touch or Gabi from Waterfall
5. Which character in a book are you most like?
Any Mary Sue
6. Do you have pets? Tell us about them?
I have two awesome dogs. Jasper is a rescue from a county in the tip of southwest NC. His days were numbered if you know what I mean. He's a nut! He's definitely a guys dog. He prefers my husband and oldest son over me. He knows exactly when the UPS man is coming. It can be in the neighborhood and he won't bark, but he seems to know the exact day he's coming to our house. Then he howls up a storm as he barks at him through the window on the landing. He also likes to sit as close to the gas fireplace as possible, we tell him not to bake his brains, he's got so little left.
And then there is Air Bud, yeah, he doesn't look like those dogs at all. We call him Buddy. He looks like Toto. He has never seen a mirror because he doesn't know how little he is. He's got a funny personality. He's a bit stand offish. My husband gives him a French accent and makes up funny conversations for him. He steals the kids stuffed animals and plays with them. He likes me better than anyone else in the family. He's totally deaf. He wandered up on Halloween 12 years ago and never left.
7. Would you like to have a mythological pet? What would it be?
Yes, I want a Griffin! And the know how to handle him!
8. If you had a superpower, what would it be?
I'd like to be able to fly.
9. If you could dump a heroine in a book and take her place, what book and who would that be?
I haven't read it yet, but I think Aurora from Demons at Deadnight sounds like she's got a pretty sweet deal.
10. What is at the top of your bucket list?
Paris, France for a few months
Scotland would be my second choice
11. What do you want most in your life right at this moment?
Enough money to pay off the bills and send my kids to college!
And a job that won't make me want to lose my mind.
So anyone else want to answer these questions?
Just make a post and leave a comment for Melissa at Books and Things!
Such fun questions! Our oldest boxer Gatsby definitely prefers my husband over me, what's up with that? He was supposed to be MY dog since I'm at home all day with him, and he was supposed to fall madly in love with me but sadly his love is more reserved for Kevin. *cries* Luckily, I have Griffin who pretty much loves anyone and anything. Even inanimate objects:)
ReplyDeleteAnd YAY GABRIEL AUBRY! So glad I could put him on your radar. You're welcome ;-)
Love your answers! Your dogs sound so fun!
ReplyDeleteJenny did the same for me! I totally love Ethan because of her. Though I'd prefer a Gabe of my own to a vampire.
ReplyDeleteGreat answers, SFAM! I answered on her blog, LOL but maybe I'll post mine tomorrow :o] Those were fun questions!
ReplyDeletePoor Jasper and Bud, they have it SOOO rough at your house! I know, I've heard what goes on there, LOL-gotta love them pooches!
Remember we were supposed to do Scotland/Ireland together? Did you forget that convo?
Call me, Missy, I called yesterday!
Great answers all, I think this is a fun meme!
LOVE your answers!!
ReplyDeleteI always make them older. I just can't date a teenager in my head even if I swoon for them in a book. Nope... make them older for me! :D So see... you aren't the only one. :D Btw, I think I'd like to be Aurora when the hex boys grow up. ;D
Does your UPS man give treats? I know that is why my cousin's dog loves the UPS man. LOL Mine don't care b/c it usually isn't stuff for them. I love the personality you described of your dogs!
No, my UPS man doesn't give treats, but the boys are inside so he can't get to them. Besides, Jasper the wimp, sounds very ferocious when he comes to the door. Buddy doesn't hear him so it's moot.
ReplyDeleteThe voice my husband does for my Buddy is French but he usually gives him Monty Python lines. It's pretty funny. I know we're weird. My kids are going to get in trouble for saying "I fart in your general direction!" which if very appropriate for dogs (and boys) but shouldn't be said at school. My 12 yr old's filter doesn't quite work.
I don't know which Monty Python movie that line is from, but apparently Frat boys spend a lot of time watching Monty Python and drinking!
I'd love to see some of you guys answer these questions and Jenny, yes, I bow to you for Gabriel!! He is just so...sigh. He'd never look at me, but he is just so wow!
Melissa-
Well, I meant I'd be Aurora's age! I don't want to do anything illegal. If I was my actual self at that age, all that testosterone would have me running the other way. I was scared of boys until 11th grade.
Kristi-
It says Bucket List- it doesn't say who I'm going with! I want to stay for awhile so we either have to go between pets or find a way to bring them with us. Rent a little stone cottage and I could write. I want to live in the Scottish Highlands for awhile. I'm pretty sure I was meant to live there next to the ocean. I'll call. Had a migraine today GRRR!
Rubita- Oh, I want Gabriel the man, not Ethan. Sorry didn't make that clear. I wasn't sure how to answer the question so I went with two humans I'd like in my harem and two fictional characters I'd like in my harem!
Heather
I want to fly too, but I need a guarantee the power isn't going to disappear all of a sudden. Gerard Butler...sigh.
