Braingle

This is pretty cool. I was playing around with my feeds in the yahoo mail beta (which I’m trying out) and decided I wanted to blog.

Creature/Banquet Spoonerism 

A spoonerism is a transposition of initial sounds of two or more words (as in "tons of soil" for "sons of toil"). So… What is a spoonerism for a counterfeit creature as opposed to a banquet of oven-cooked foods? Check out for the answer.

Funtastic Friday

Categories: Q & Q, Memes, Fun Sites

Friday’s Feast 156:

Appetizer
Describe your laundry routine. Do you have a certain day when you do it all, or do you just wash whatever you need for the next day? Once a week. No particular day–whenever we have a day off.

Soup
In your opinion, what age will you be when you’ll consider yourself to truly be old? Hmm, somewhere around fifty. Still…there’s old and there’s OLD. As a child I had this ballet teacher who was definitely over fifty but, physically, put us self-assured little brats to shame. I bet she could easily have kicked our tiny hinies. (And from 20 yr. old to the world: 30 is NOT old! Geez. People actually mature around that age. Usually…)

Salad
What is one of your goals? Is it short-term, long-term, or both? To finish my novel. As for the term…I’ve been working on the series for about 7 years. What do you think?

Main Course
Name something unbelievable you’ve seen or read lately. Um…that’s pastor’s wife getting off the hook for murdering her husband. That was more bizarre than the Kay Hooper audiobooks I’m listening to.

Dessert
On a scale of 1-10 with 10 being highest, how happy are you today? Uh, I’d say 11, but I’m pretty sure it’s monthly thing.  (Yeah, extremely hyper or extremely angry…I like the first one.)

Friday Fun: Friday Flavors:

What is your favorite flavor of,…

1. Ice cream? Vanilla! (especially with caramel and toffee)
2. Coffee or tea? Coffee…regular with Vanilla Toffee Caramel creamer.
3. Chocolate? White, milk or dark? White! Mm.
4. Milk? Chocolate, plain, or strawberry? None.
5. Gum? Cinnamon.
6. Toothpaste? Spearmint.
7. Jelly or jam? Raspberry. Delicious.

Friday Fill-in #33:

1. There’s coffee and then there’s goooooood coffee! (LOL! Got that from a Garfield cartoon.)
2. Subscribe to Amazon.com because it’s awesome!
3. I love a good book because it helps me refined my own writing–and it’s enjoyable, too. emoticon
4. My favourite position is lounging–I guess I’m just a down-to-floor kind of girl. LOL!
5. I need to quit my "old" job–as much as I love my co-workers.
6. I need to start saving money.
7. And as for the weekend, tonight I’m looking forward to finishing season 1 of The Office, tomorrow my plans include work (what else?) and Sunday, I want to watch Stardust! (Yeah, right.)

 

OMG! This is hilarious! Check out this site: Draw a pig! (Hey, it isn’t like I’m eating the pig, ok?) Anyway, here’s mine:

You drew the pig:

Toward the middle, you are a realist. (Uh…you know I’m a fiction writer, right? I live in my own little world…and there’s nothing real about…except maybe the murders…neh. Rafim, naiads, and magic daggers that never miss their target–not real stuff.)

Facing left, you believe in tradition, are friendly, and remember dates (birthdays, etc.) (Yes to the first–to an extent. Uh…the second is highly debatable. The third…well, God bless yahoo calendar alerts. LOL!)

With few details, you are emotional and naive, they care little for details and are a risk-taker. (Are you calling me Emo? For the last time…I AM NOT EMO. Goth, maybe. A little. And hey, I totally care about details…when it comes to writing. Risk-taker? Me? Only when I’m hyper.)

With 4 legs showing, they are secure, stubborn, and stick to their ideals. (Stubborn. That’s a nice way of putting it.)

The size of the ears indicates how good a listener you are.
The bigger the better. You drew medium sized ears, you are a good listener. (If you give me a good story. Remember: truth is stranger than fiction.)

The length of the tail indicates the quality of your sex life.
And again more is better! You drew medium sized tail. (What the he–er, bloody dickens?! When I’m married, sure…to that genius Jew out there. Yeah, I’m waiting for you…oops. I think I scared him away!)

Spontaneity

Categories: Blog, Memes, Fun Sites

warning

I was supposed to do laundry today, but Imah called an hour ago to tell me that Oops! she has the laundry stuff in the trunk of her car. So, there went that chore. I’ll have to do it another time.

Unconscious Mutterings, Week 211: 

  1. Threshold :: Over the…
  2. Jason :: …Gideon (character on Criminal Minds)
  3. Suspicion :: intrigue (the two go together well in stories)
  4. Tender :: -hearted
  5. Tempted :: enticed
  6. Crimson :: stain
  7. Repulsive :: monster
  8. Bulldog :: American… (Chance!)
  9. Garage :: …door opener
  10. Racket :: illegitimate business scheme

randomness…feed your mind and your blog week of feb18: list 6 odd things. Sound simple? It is, just list 6 odd things about yourself. till next time….

  1. I laugh spontaneously (and sometimes without reason).
  2. I watch movies in my head (sometimes causing me to laugh spontaneously).
  3. I obsess over my hands (I can’t write if something happens to them).
  4. I performed "surgery" on dead animals as a child. (Everyone said I’d become a doctor).
  5. I was known as the Mad Scientist during my high school years. (Don’t mind the screams. Mother probably found another critter in the freezer.)
  6. On occasion, I will busta move while shopping (stress reliever? or just excitement?).

While blog hopping, I found this awesome site, Killired (I don’t just like it because it’s pink!). Check it out. Also, there’s Pinky Blinkies and Image Chef, which I found on Killired’s site. Fun stuff!! I’m going to play around with Image Chef for awhile.

Farewell!
