Knitrageous: Too Much Information

Too much information running through my brain
Too much information driving me insane...

I’ve noticed a lot of distractors on social media lately. I’m happy to see them. There are puppy pictures instead of politics, jokes, games and even some survey says type things where you have to answer questions about yourself. Reminds me of the good old FB days when you could see what everyone was having for dinner!

Recently a coworker asked me to help compile a list of the 'about me' questions she had seen on FB. I thought maybe I’d answer a few. So I did the ‘pick and choose’ and answered the ones I felt like finishing.

Without further ado, here are 20 absolutely useless facts about me.

Who are you named after?
My dad. I was supposed to be their boy, a junior. My middle name is from my mom’s friend she once told me. I was never fond of that part of my name!

Do you use sarcasm?
Most of the time. Someone told me I’m not funny. I think I’m hilarious.

Do you still have your tonsils?
I do and almost all of the other parts I came with as well.

What is your favorite cereal?
Depends. Sometimes it’s Rice Krispies and sometimes Frosted Shredded Wheat. If I’m feeling like I should be healthy it might be Raisin Bran or oatmeal. Usually it’s not the super sweet cereals. But sometimes they are good for snacking. I guess I don’t have a favorite.

What is your favorite ice cream?
I like ice cream so I’d probably try most anything I got. Right now it’s Rocky Road with milk poured over it.

What are you listening to right now?
Television. DVR is great and I can multi task then rewind when I miss something. And zooming through commercials is priceless!

If you were a crayon, what color would you be?
I couldn’t be just one color. I’m variegated at heart.

What is your hair color?
Really dark brown, almost black. Nowadays it comes from a tube.

What is your eye color?
My eyes are green but can also be blue, depending on what I wear. Sometimes they are kind of a gray color as well. If you ask people they will tell you different things. But both of them are the same color!

What is your favorite Holiday?
I want to say Christmas but the past few have been stressful. I never thought we’d become one of those families...but we have.

Where were you born?
I was born in Lubbock, Texas. We moved to Albuquerque when I was three years old and I grew up there. But marriage brought Texas again and I’ve lived in this little town longer than anywhere else. I’m a Texan at heart with a little green chile thrown in.

Do you get nervous before doctor appointments?
Absolutely. I dislike most anything medical; procedures, needles and visiting any medical personnel, dentists included. They always say this won’t hurt...but it does.

What do you think of hot dogs?
I like hotdogs. A lot. I like them with mustard, relish and pickles, chili, cheese, bacon. I like hotdogs.

Do you have A.D.D.?
Probably. And H too.

Do you wear glasses?
Only if I want to see to read.

How did you bring in the New Year?
I waited for E to get here for our traditional ‘party’. But he didn’t come home until 11:45 so I woke Alan, we waited til midnight and toasted then went to bed. Sad, but I think the littles are getting too old for this Mamye.

Do you own slippers?
I own several pairs of slippers. As soon as I get home from work, on they go. I love my slippers!

What is the last thing that made you laugh?
Some silly joke I read on FB. What a life. FB makes me laugh and cry and lately, it also makes me angry...and scared.

What vehicle do you drive?
I love my Honda Accord. Her name is Bessie Lee and she takes me where I need to be. See how I did that?

There has to be one last question because I don’t like ending on an odd number.

Do you like odd or even numbers?
Apparently tonight it’s even.
