ksarasara, christn7, schnuffichen, and whoever wrote this meme (which was so much fun that, yes, it was worth reposting). Thanks, guys!
(And hope my edits are okay...)
1. If you could rename yourself, what would your name be?
Huh. I don't know. I've had this name all my life.
Although... I have considered, from time to time, that it'd be nice to dump my last name and reclaim Treger, the one I would have had if not for crazy immigration stuff.
And it'd also be kind of nice to have a real middle name. And a non-hyphenated (heh, there's a bit of lexographical irony for you) first name. And maybe not be named after people who were dead before I was born. It's a tradition Mom loves, but which I find creepy and burdensome.
So... I don't know. I seem to be in kind of a "Mike" mood at the moment, whatever that means. How about Michael Charles Treger? That'll do until I find something with a cooler acronym.
But that's purely hypothetical. Don't start calling me Mike or whatever. 'Cuz I'll just look at you blankly, having completely forgotten about this. Like I said, I'm used to this name, for better or for worse.
2. What's your favorite bone?
The one attached to a nice, juicy BBQ spare rib.
(BTW, did you know that, according to the bible, women are made of spare ribs?)
3. Tell me one boring fact about you.
I have lived in New Jersey for almost my entire life.
Also, I am not lactose intolerant.
(Sorry, couldn't stop at just one...)
4. Use MS Paint (or the MAC equivalent) to draw a self portrait and post it in this meme.
Okay. Right. Time to break out my mad MS Paint skillz. (Which I totally just used today to make a custom shirt design to my niece's specifications.)
... Oh, wait. You mean I can't cut and paste actual pictures and clipart and crap? Dammit, there go my mad skillz.
Uhm... Let's see... bald, oval head, with maybe an interesting expression... How about...
(Thank you,shortpacked.)
Oh, wait. No glasses. And besides, I don't generally wear green and purple. Oh, and I don't have eyebrows.
*sigh* Fine.
5. What did the aliens do to you when you got abducted last year?
Well, luckily, I got abducted by the nice aliens. They gave me Dippin' Dots (the ice cream of the future! tm) and then we
And when we got back, I had a whole new appreciation for the wonders of
The funny thing is that no one seemed to notice. Not even the thing with the platypus, let alone how the cows which had ensued managed to get the holes patched up. Go figure.
6. Choose five people from your Friends List. For each one, post a word or short phrase which you think they'll understand as uniquely theirs.
If you see one that you think is yours, post it to your journal with as much explanation and/or commentary as you're comfortable giving. Then post phrases for five of your friends so we can learn a little more about them.
Hmm. This isn't going to be easy. In no particular order:
1. Ultra Woman/Mom/Friend/Writer/Volunteer/Etc./Etc.
(What? That's a phrase! Only two words, technicaly. The /s make it okay! Really.)
2. Bella Che Deve Scrivere Più
(Blame Babelfish for the syntax. ;) )
3. (;
(More in the spirit of the meme, I think.)
4. Alice? Off with her head!
5. No pancakes? Chicken!
Now that you've read through all that, why not leave a comment? And when you do...
1. Pick up to five of my interests, and I'll tell you something about each of them.
2. If you read this, even if we don't speak often, please post a comment with a completely made up and fictional memory of you and me.
It can be anything you want - good or bad - it just has to be fake.
When you're finished, post this little paragraph on your LJ and be surprised (or mortified) about what people don't actually remember about you.

That's me, isn't it? *g* Not sure about the "bella", but there's no doubt I should write more. *g*
Just wanted to let you know that I'm not ignoring this, but I'm going away for a couple of days and I still haven't packed anything. I'll think hard about what to write and will post as soon as I'm back. :)

As I recently explained to someone else... It's my blog, therefore I am right. Sorry, but you're just going to have to deal with it, bella.
Anyway, have a good time on your trip! And I'll look forward to hearing something from you when you get back. :) Thanks for dropping by. :)
