A Dozen Random Answers



1. Do you prefer even or odd numbers? Any particular reason?

Odd. For the same reason I prefer straight-sided shapes to round ones. And crunchy foods to soft foods.

Yeah, I'm weird!

2. On a scale of 1-10, with 1 being "not at all" and 10 being Carly Simon-worthy, how vain are you?

I'm way too insecure to be vain.

3. Among these Irish stereotypes, with which do you identify most closely? Talkative, Proud, Inquisitive, Love to party, Hot-tempered

I guess I would say proud. And no, that's not the same thing as vain! Being proud is part of being Texan.

4. How lucky do you consider yourself?

Not. My brother can win just about any drawing he enters. I rarely do.

5. What is the subject of your favorite post that you've written?

Five of My Favorite Words in the Bible, Part 1 and
Five of My Favorite Words in the Bible, Part 2

6. Describe March weather where you live in three words.

Intermittent cold fronts.

7. How apt are you at detecting blarney when you hear it? (Smooth talk, flattery)

Not very. It has to be super obvious. I'm a pretty trusting soul.

8. How "green" are you, environmentally speaking?

Not very. And in today's politically correct culture, It's Not Easy Being Not Green!

9. What is your favorite song this week?

I hate picking favorites! I have ever since I was a kid and my mom always wanted to know what my favorite book was. I guess Casting Crowns' Til the Whole World Hears.

10. You are walking along and see a coin on the ground. What denomination does it have to be before you will stop to pick it up?

Baptist.

Oh, you mean that kind of denomination?! The amount doesn't matter - I'll pick up pennies. What determines whether I pick it up is the grime factor.

11. Complete the sentence: "Every time I look outside my window ...."

....I wonder what the temperature is!

12. What was the #1 song on the day you were born? See this site to find out.

Tossin’ And Turnin’ - Bobby Lewis

What fun answers. Like your #11, that used to be me, but I got my hubby one of those outside temp things that has the thermostat inside, its a wireless thing. It is pretty cool and very accurate.

until next time... nel

I wandered off and started playing with that birthday thing and almost forgot to come back.

I like round and crunchy and odd, so we match on 2 out of three.

Baptist Pennies?! LOL

I used to be trusting until I started working at the Attendance desk at the high school. I don't even trust the adults any more!!

SusanD said...

I love your answer to #10. Baptist. Thanks for the great laugh this morning. Blessings, SusanD

Patrice and Higgins said...

Ha ha, I didn't even consider the grime factor...yes that sometimes does make all the difference!!

Jill said...

Great answers! I loved #10--I think the grime factor is the most important too.

SouthLakesMom said...

Dancin' in my chair to Tossin' and Turnin' now! Great answers and congrats on being first!

2nd Cup of Coffee said...

People will have to work hard to beat #10. You're a riot. And that's not blarney.

Melli said...

GREAT answers! I, too, loved the BAPTIST thing! Silly girl!

I really enjoyed your posts on your 5 favorite words in the Bible too! REALLY enjoyed it!

Joyce said...

I loved your five words posts...I did the Beth Moore Daniel study a few years ago and loved it. That study has really stayed with me....love your denomination answer too : )

Debby@Just Breathe said...

I love seeing everyones answers.
Thanks for joining in the fun. I thinks that blogging is good for the insecure!
Have a beautiful day.

Susanne said...

Hahaha. You and I think the same. I answered similarily for #10. I relate to ya on #8 too.

Barbara H. said...

I hate trying to pick favorites, too, and my answer about coins was similar in that I usually don't because they're dirty -- or I think they are!

Cathy said...

Love your answers, especially the denomination's one.

CeeCee said...

You are a hoot! Yeah, if it's grimy fuhgeddaboutit. ((Hugs)))

Pamela Scott said...

love your answers especially the "Baptist" one how funny

The Bug said...

I used to be Baptist, but I reckon I'd only pick up Episcopal coins now :) Do you think they'd be more, or less, likely to be grimy?

Lori said...

O love your answer to no. 10. The grime factor is huge to me. It could be a ten dollar bill but if it's laying in a pile of poo, I'm not picking it up that's for sure!

Lea @ CiCis Corner said...

So enjoyed my first stop by your blog. This is my first participation in Random Dozen and it has been such fun. Loved your answers! Blessings to you!

Connie Barris said...

Too funny....

I guess I thought every one picked up coins... haha

My sister and I pick up pennies.. "Pennies from Heaven".. we have decided it is our dad thinking of us and every time we see a penny, it lets us know he is up in Heaven sending us his love..

Debbie@Like a Rose said...

We had a similar answer on #2.

When I have more time I want to go back and read your "favorite" posts - you captured my curiosity.

Love #8 & #10 - too funny!
