End of Inspiring Answers Series.

 

You now the deal by now…

 

1. What is your favorite book and why should I read it next?

I am absolutely in love with an entire series (so far) of books.  It’s called the “Mitford Series” and it’s written by an author by the name of Jan Karon. 

You should read these books, starting with the first, “At Home In Mitford”, because you will (I hope) completely fall in love with the eccentric characters and lush way this author fleshes out the small ficticious town of Mitford.  (I’m on book 5 now and I’ve recently learned it’s “in” NC.)  It’s a simple story of small town life but has sweet twists and turns and is contemporary enough you won’t get a toothache.

I would SO LOVE to live in Mitford.  😉  Be a Mitford Wife.  *groans at own bad joke*

2. God comes to you and says, “Tamara, good job so far. I would like you to do what your heart really wants to do with your life. What do you need and what will you do?”

Woot!!!  First I’d say, “HEY YOU!!!  I KNOW you!!!  NO WAY!”  Then I’d say, “Why me?”  Then I’d say, “Okay, I need a big house with lots of rooms and just enough money in the bank to support 4 kids that I can be a blessing to.  So you’re gonna have to work on Brian a little here.” 

“Oh, and God…sorry.  You know…for all the notsogood things.”

“Oh!  And thanks!!!!!!!!!!!!!  I won’t let you down!”

3. Paper or plastic?

Unpolitically incorrect plastic for me please.  I *cough* errr, Brian uses it to pick up the doggy poopies.  (I can’t touch those, *screeches* it makes me yack.  Really.)

4. How do you get from Nahant to Taunton?

Me?  Personally?  I don’t.  But according to triple a’s site, this is how I would get from Nahant (pronounced “NA-Haunt” for all you non-massholes.) I’d go down Nahant Causeway…’cuz that’s pretty much the only way out of Nahant.  Then I’d take the lynnway basically to I-93 S and then I’d take 24 to 44 or vice versa.  I forget now.  Is there a reason for this question little missy?

5. Name your preferred superpower. Explain why you chose it.

I’d love the ability to be able to become really small and be a fly on the wall.  Not an actual fly, mind you.  Because then if I were seen I’d either get doused with Raid or swatted and squashed to death.  Not pleasant.  But if I were a little me, people would be interested and probably only pick me up and think I was cute. 

Why?  Because people facsinate me.  I am also a soft-core peeping Tam.  *looks around shifty-eyed*  I am.  I know.  But come on.  Their window is right in front of my window and they don’t have any shades or curtains or nothin’.  Gimme a break, you’d look too.

(I got caught a few weeks ago!  I felt shame.  However I owned up to my peeping and waved at them.  *LOL* 

 

 

6. What is your biggest fear?

My biggest fear used to be that I would die alone.  But it’s not anymore.  I’m not afraid to die. Really.  Sometimes I get a little creeped out wondering HOW I will die.  But that’s another topic altogether.

My biggest fear now is that I truly won’t fulfill whatever purpose there is to my life.  I know there IS a purpose to my life.  As there is to all life.  I think we just get sidetracked, thrown off course, or screwed up trying to figure out what that purpose is. 

Ya know?

7. Do you think monogamy is realistic in marriage?

I do!!  I 100%, wholeheartedly not just think, but believe monogamy is realistic in marriage.  Oh hell yes.  It ain’t easy, it ain’t always pretty, and sometimes it totally sucks ass, but once you make those vows…especially if it’s before God, then you are in it for the long haul, for life baybee.  For better…and sometimes worse. 

I also think it’s necessary.  *firm nod*  Mmm hmm. 

I know that a lot of my friends here disagree, and that’s fine.  But I gotta be honest in what I believe.  Yo.

8. Undies. Tell us. You know we are DYING to know.

Mine?  Oh lord.  The hellcat in me wants to say some sexy thong thing from Vickies.  *snork*  However, that’s a bold faced lie.  It’s Hanes Her Way…size undisclosed thank you very much … high cut thigh…but still granny looking.  Here’s another secret about my personal underwear habits.  My underwear must match the color outfit I am wearing.  Capice?  ALL of my underwear…socks, undies, bra…neurotic?

Are you happy now?  *busts out laughing*

8a. Boxers or briefs on men?

Ohhhh!  I love those boxer brief manties.  (*ROTFL* Manties…sorry, composes self*) 

She says: I’m silly tonight.

I say: Evidently I am too.  

 

 

 I am reading a book you’d love called “The Bachelorette Party”. It’s a little Bridget Jonesy, and I know you’d like it. It is a really fast read, nothing heavy.

This isn’t really a question, who is the author?  I will put it on my next list.  Right now I have 5 new books coming…*gasp* all from the Mitford series.  Again, neurotic much?  *L*Oh, and hey, guess what?  Chicken butt.
 

 

 

If Rob Thomas came to u and said ,” I cant live without u since our hug, come with me” what would u do ? 

Oh my goodness!!!  Like, yeah…that’s gonna happen.   But say it did.  (How effing awesome WOULD that be?  Don’t be jellis, this is my little fantasy…)

I would first probably gasp and then start balling like a newborn baby.  Then, if he didn’t run away in fear…I would be all like, “OMG!  Was it that good for you?”  Then I’d dance around singing, “He really liiiiiikkkkkeeeessssss me, he wants to kiiiiiiiiiisssssssss meeeeee…”  THEN, if he was still there…I would say, “Okay, I shall go with you for 2 days.  2 DAYS!!!  But there will be no hanky panky Mr. Thomas, thank you very much.  I am a twice married to the same man woman I’d like you to know.  And you must sit with me on a deserted island with nothing to sustain us except fancy tropical drinks served in coconuts and we will singand sing.  Oh!  And talk about absolutely EVERYTHING!  Yeah. It will take longer than 2 days to talk about everything.  So let’s make it like a week.  Okay?  And at the end of that week…I want you to kiss me like I’m the last woman you’ll kiss before you die because babydoll, I’m gonna lay one on you.”  

Scoff if you will…but that’s basically the truth.  (With a little hope thrown in that I could be so cool in the presence of a man who sings my heart and soul…with so much heart and soul.)

I think Brian and God would forgive me a kiss…yeah? 

1: Do you chew your food on the same side you write with?

I had to actually do this to know.  Interesting.  And the answer is, yes!  Yes I do.  For the most part any way.  Why? 

2: Do any of your FurKids have that special skill to know when you will have an episode?

I’ve answered this.  But yes.  Gizmo.  But not every time and he doesn’t give me any real concrete signs to like warn me in advance.  He does protect me during and after though.  Very protective of me.

In addition, after one, Miko is extra loving and extra needy to be close to me.

3: Where would you love to live?

Maine.  Maine.  MAINE!!!  *LOL*

4: What Barbie accessory do you wish was LIFE size?

Oooooo…OHHH.  EVERYTHING.  I love everything that biznatch has.  She has everything you know.  I really love her dream house though.  This one: .

There’s a house similiar to that right in my neighborhood.  GIMME!!
 

 

 

1. Spit or swallow?

Dirty girl.  Depends on what he’s been eating right beforehand.  If it hasn’t been garlic, swallow. 

2. Shave, trim, wax or au naturale?

Shave & trim.  Au naturale and I’d have some kind of hairy monster down there.

Just saying.

3. Do you pick your nose, ears, butt?

I admit to doing all of these at various times throughout my past.  And will admit to probably doing them throughout my future.

Gross?  *shrug*

4. Have you ever cheated on anyone or anything?

No to the cheating on anyone.  To the cheating on anything, yes.  I let people cheat off my papers in school, I’ve cheated off other’s papers in school and I’ve now cheated the PTS out of 2 fares on the train for a total of $7.00.)
 

9. Who do you think is going to win American Idol and why?

I truly thought that Bo would win. 

9a. Who do you want to win American Idol and why? 

You already asked this.  Are you drinking and typing again girl?
 

Despite your relious faith and all it entails, what is the one person, thing, event, whatever that was so terrible that you know in your heart of hearts, you can never really forgive? 

I can and never will forgive myself for 2 things.  The first one is not moving back here right after my mom got sick.  In my heart of hearts I believe that I let her down, she’ll never forgive me, and if I had moved back here I could have ensured she got the care she needed and maybe she wouldn’t be dead right now.  The second one is the abortion.  I will never forgive myself for allowing that to happen.  For me, personally and that has nothing to do with my religious beliefs.  I would fight for the right of a woman to do with her body what she feels she has to with her body.  The reason I would fight for that is because of my beliefs.  God made us and gave us free will, therefore it is NOT the job of man to take that free will away from anyone.  For me, it’s as simple as that.  Now, if God wants to deal with me and other woman when the time comes, well, then amen.  I’ll have to answer to him then.  I could go on right now, about God and what I believe…but I won’t.
 

from your “interests”, i believe you are a Christian but I am also under the impression that you may have voted Democrat and may not be so impressed with Bush? Do you ever have issues with that? I ask because I am a Christian and my Granny was so angry with me for voting for Kerry. I tried to explain what I didn’t feel was very Christian about the Bush administration but she wouldn’t listen.

I answered this back in a note.  My answer is based on the beliefs of the above answer.  I am a catholic, a new catholic at that, I am also a democrat and I voted for Kerry.  Based on certain issues…however, largely based on just wanting Shrub-ya out of office.  It has come up during church, and I bit my tongue…but did basically say the same thing as I answered above. 

 

 

I missed the question asking post, but one answer here made me want to ask if you think about adoption and if so, what are the obstacles to that? I don’t necessarily think that your epilepsy is an obstacle.

I would love to adopt even foster.  The obstacles are money…it’s always about money.  And truthfully, Brian himself is a HUGE obstacle.  I know in his heart of hearts he doesn’t want children.  He’s as much as said it to me for the first time within the past year or so.  My heart literally kinda froze for a second.  Then I was just numb for a few weeks.  Then I realized, I shouldn’t be surprised here.  I probably already knew deep down inside.  Now I think, if it’s just not meant to be, then it’s not meant to be.  You know?
