"Dirty Barefoot Feet"

"Thursday Thunks (TT) is a blog meme for those who need a little kick in the butt to find something to post about. Your blog posts/answers to TT's can be type or pictures, doesn't matter! YOU pick, not us, we just give you the assignment (yep, just like English class... only we won't grade your spelling & grammer)."

"This week we will answer some crazy questions brought to you by Berleen, the number 1 (because I am) and the color nude."

1. What is your least favorite candy bar?

Rollos (if they count as a candy bar) thanks to a gross story my mother told me about a college friend of hers, Rollos and worms. Ewww…

2. If I were to call you, what would you say?

I’m at work so if I don’t recognize the number on caller ID, I answer “Blah department blah blah office, how may I help you?” Three of us share an extension so we try to act professional.

3. What is your favorite type of leaf?

I have never thought about having a favorite… dried, I guess. In college a good friend of mine collected and dried leaves in the fall, then hung them on the wall of his room. It was lovely, and I enjoyed finding pretty leaves to contribute to his obsession.

4. When was the last time you...

- swam in a lake? Last summer.

- went barefoot outside? Early this morning (might even count as last night) on my balcony.

- ate peas? I don't know.

5. Since Father's Day is right around the corner, tell us about the person that you are celebrating.

I’m not really planning on a celebration. I will (probably) call my father and will wish a few priest friends happy father’s day.

6. Were you dropped on your head as a child?

I don’t of any incidents in which I was dropped on my head, but I know that I did fall and hit my head a few times.

7. How often do you clean your toilet?

This chore usually gets done every two weeks or so.

8. Have you ever been sunburned?

Tell us about it. Many times as a child, but not recently… Once I wore my hair in pigtails and ended up with sunburn along the center part. It hurt so much to wash my hair or brush it for most of the next week.

9. On average, how many hours a sleep do you get a night?

Recently I've only been getting about 6.5. This number needs improvement.

10. How many hours did you get last night?

Maybe 5 hours, but not consecutively… Stayed up late watching the rain and lightning… then the power went out and I got up to help some neighbors get into the building and garage… later was awoken by the power coming back on (noise due to the fridge and fan is surprising)… awoken this morning by maintenance knocking on the door...

11. Take a picture of something. Post it.

I cannot oblige at present. But my desk looks something like this...
12. Are the bottom of your feet dirty?

Not right now.

13. Do you know the names of every member of the family who lives next door to you?

I know Sue, who lives in the apartment to the east of mine. Dr. Ed used to live on the north side, but I don’t remember the name of the Chinese girl who moved in almost a year ago.
