The Bottom Line More about me than you've ever wanted to know.

Well, well, well. Another Write Off that I'm going to participate in... This time, Bella4 is running a cool Write Off in which participants answer the following items: 10 bands you've been listening to lately, 9 things you look forward to, 8 things you like to wear, 7 things that annoy you, 6 things you touch every day, 5 things you do everyday, 4 people you want to spend time with, 3 movies you could watch over and over again, 2 of your favorite bands at the moment, 1 person that you'd spend the rest of your life with. Sounds like fun. I just hope that a few of you enter the Write Off that Dionne25 and I are running. Just read my or her profile page to find out how to enter. And, there is a prize for ours. :-)

10 Bands I've Been Listening to Lately
Well, I'm more of a radio person than a listener of band CDs. But, I'll give it a shot.

10- Rage Against the Machine
9- Red Hot Chili Peppers
8- Monkees (Yes, THE Monkees)
7- Mamas and the Papas
6- The Beatles (are you noticing a trend?)
5- The Eagles
4- Aerosmith (hey, I've got eclectic taste)
3- SmashMouth
2- Uncle Kracker
1- Hootie and the Blowfish

9 Things I Look Forward To
You probably won't understand some of these items, but that's okay. Just ask and I'll explain.

9- Watching the first episode of Deadwood
8- The 2005 Emmy Awards
7- Christmas
6- The end of my MAT program with University of Phoenix
5- Seeing my family again
4- My divorce being finalized.
3- Next year's Aloette seminar
2- Writing my first novel
1- Having children

8 Things I Like to Wear
These are pretty self-explanatory.

8- Pajamas
7- Sweatpants
6- T-Shirts
5- A really comfy bra (I can't wear one in costume!)
4- Craig's Police t-shirt
3- flip-flops
2- Satin or cotton panties from Victoria's Secret
1- Oversized night shirts

7 Things that Annoy Me
Yeah, these are self-explanatory, too.

7- Stupid people.
6- Stalkers.
5- Corporate America.
4- Leaving coffee cups and soda cans around the house.
3- Bad speling.
2- People who don't return phone calls.
1- People who say they will do something, then don't.

6 Things I Touch Every Day
This was a hard one, because I don't have a routine. So, I went for the easy. Sue me.

6- My dog, Kiwi.
5- Craig.
4- The toilet bowl handle.
3- The sink faucets.
2- The telephone.
1- My computer keyboard.

5 Things I Do Everyday
Again, since I'm not in a routine, this is a hard one for me to answer. Again, I went for the simple. Sue me.

5- Talk on the phone.
4- Check my email.
3- Drink water.
2- Talk with my mother.
1- Kiss my husband.

4 People I Want To Spend Time With
Since I don't really like people (see #6), this is another tricky one for me.

4- My husband, Craig.
3- My best friend, Dionne.
2- My sister, Julienne
1- My mother, Juliette.

3 Movies I Could Watch Over and Over Again
This is easy for me. Of course, I've got more than 3.

3- The Sand Lot
2- A League of Their Own
1- Pirates of the Caribbean

2 of My Favorite Bands At the Moment
What the heck is up with these music questions? I'm not a big music fan. Seriously. I like Oldies and Showtunes. So...

2- The Monkees
1- The Beatles

1 Person That I'd Spend the Rest of my Life With

1- My Wonderful Husband

And there you have it. You people probably know more about me than you ever wanted to. But, that's fine. More gossip for you to give to The Globe when I'm famous.
