  •   I got this from jerjonji.  Let’s see:  do the quiz or clean the kitchen?





     

    Carey’s Quiz

    Three things (that people do) that piss you off:

    1.  be negative


    2.    be small-minded


    3.        be dishonest


     


    Three weird habits you have:



    1.   look at my dogs to see what they’re thinking


    2.   I give myself a little hug in bed at night and think what a good girl I’ve been.


    3.   I am constantly trying to wean myself from bad habits and I do it slowly so that I tend to always be in some stage of partially letting go of something before relapsing two months later.  Okay two weeks.


     


    If you could rename yourself what would your new name be?



    *  Iliana


     


    Three little known talents you possess:

    1.   landscape architecture


    2.   belly dancing.


    3.   sewing


     


    The one thing you can cook that people would pay money for:



    *  cakes


     


    If you could go back to any age what would it be and why?

    *  So far this is my favorite age (54) but then I always like it best where I am.


     


    List three words that describe your feet.


      tomato-toed and tan


     


     


    What dream did you abandon, that you now regret?
     
    * teaching bellydance


    Three people you would like to switch lives with for one day:


     


    1.  my ex-husband


    2.  my mother


    3.  Joan Biez ( everyone in my family has a wonderful voice but me)


     


     


    Describe (Pitch) the Sitcom about your family


    * writer sits alone in her office day after day her only contact w/the outside world thru the internet and an occasional trip to the store…..


     


    Wow, Jeri, I didn’t even have to change it!


     


    Two things that you would love to buy if money were no object:


    1.     PLANE TICKETS


    2.    Another week in Florida


     


     


    What famous person do you most resemble?

    * Ali McGraw.  I guess she’s not famous anymore and I don’t know that we look alike so much as she seemed similar when I saw the movie in my 20′s.


     


    List your three worst qualities.


     


    1. procrastinator


    2. perfectionist


    3. don’t have enough drive


     


    Two things that you waste money on:


     


    1. lattes


    2. food I throw away


     


    Who would play you in the movie about your life?



    *Selma B…………. that hot actress I saw in the movie about how she gets pregnant and tries to have the baby on her own somewhere in Mexico.  I’m Caucasian and not hot nor do I relate to anything southwestern but I think she could pull off looking like a court reporter and a belly dancer.
     


     


    Would that be a miniseries, feature film, or documentary?

    *feature film… ha ha ha… and guess who’s writing the screenplay?


    Didn’t have to change that one either!


     


    Would you rather smell like musk, flowers, fruit, or spice?

    *I like all those so it’s hard to pick.  I wear ”Poem.”


     


    Three misconceptions people have about you:


    1. I don’t imagine I leave room for even three.


    2.


    3.


    Two things you wish everyone understood about you:

    1. Again, I’m pretty sure people get who I am.  God knows I put myself out there for ya.


    2.


    3. 


    On a scale of one to ten, how much effort did you put into answering these questions?


     


    * too much! !


     


    So it took you about how long?

    * I didn’t time myself.  I always take a long time commenting and this was longer.


     


    And it was the best quiz you ever took, right?

    *Actually, it’s the only quiz I’ve ever taken because they all look so dumb.  And she didn’t even tag me I just took it upon myself.


     


    Are you interested in another?

    * Nah


     


    I’m not tagging anyone this time… but if  you do this, let us know!

  • it is one of the most fun ones, but then a very creative woman wrote it! it was fun reading your responses!

  • One day you should be brave and put a pic up..of your face:)  You’re close to my mom’s age…maybe thats why i get more of the stuff…and am reminded of her often by the things you say.

    And I think I shall agree on the age thing…I like the age I’m age…I don’t wanna go back to a past one.

  • What an interesting post today.  I love reading about people’s lives and personalities.

    2.   I give myself a little hug in bed at night and think what a good girl I’ve been.

    This one is priceless!  I think we should all do that from time to time.

  • Interesting, why would you pick your ex’s life for one day? No way I would pick my ex’s life for even an hour. Cheers Well to each her own. Just interested in where you were going with that.

  • Hey thanks for the good words! Your comments always lift my spirits. I hope you’re busy working on that screenplay, that’s one movie I’d go watch. Though I think your style probably lends itself more to the page, your descriptions crackle and a movie – well, you see what you see, so that would sort of lose some of your magic in the translation.

  • You never do quizzes? Then I am honored you took mine.

    P.S. Your sitcom is already in reruns! ;)

  • I admire your patience to complete these quizzes. I don’t think I have the attention span

    Thanks for stopping by, and your comment. You’re too forgiving. But I sincerely appreciate it.

  • the only quiz I did was the one on books. I refuse to do any more.

    Why is MoreWhereThatCameFrom a troller? I don’t think he’s half as funny as he thinks he is.
    But that’s xanga.

  • I am also a Poeme girl!!!  Love that stuff.

  • Wow, your comment to my blog was followed by the person you were writing about and he didn’t even pick up on it. Very strange indeed. I had no idea what he was going on about. Perhaps you can translate for me. He seems to be an odd bird alright.

  • …no offense taken…
