Mellissa's Meme

and only she knows what the heck a Meme is. I guess it's like a tag, but fancier. Whomever reads my Meme is OBLIGATED to do their own, unless they have done one within the last week. If you accept these terms you may read further. If not you may click on the back button to leave this site (don't you dare!).

Things I have done before
1 worked a summer in a fish cannery and gutted fish and sorted more eggs than most people see in a lifetime (in Alaska)
2 danced the hula in my 6Th grade class (Hawaii) "Show me How to do the Hula" for Lief Erickson Day?
3 rode my horse bareback into a lake when I was 16 and we swam around for a while
4 showed reindeer to tourist in Alaska for a summer job. Auggie was the most popular one, he grunted all the time
5 accidentally killed my boys pet rat by feeding it sweet potato, who knew uncooked sweet potato had traces of arsenic?
6 going along with the rat theme I had one named Molly. In college I would sneak her in my pocket of my hoodie and her take to class with me!
7 I feel I should mention something that wasn't pre-marriage or pre-children. When my children were just mere babes I started teaching them to play dead. So then by the age of 1 to 1 1/2 they could die on command and then I would pretend to cry for them. Then I die and they pretend to cry for me. My husband thinks I am demented, probably so, but it's one of my proudest achievements to date.

Things I do now
1 Blog
2 Yell
3 Clean
4 Bite the sides of my mouth
5 Sing too loud
6 Eat too much chocolate
7 Goof off until I get a headache or pee pants

Things I Want to Do
1 Lose some more weight (on a chocolate diet, mind you)
2 Look Hot all the time but still retain a comfy level-going for the hot nurse that lives in her scrubs, maybe?
3 Since this is what I WANT to do, it doesn't have to fit into reality, because I would Like to vacation in the Bahamas, lay on a lawn chair, sipping (virgin) pina coladas, feeling the wind.....moving on...
4 Hire a maid, no, 3 maids!
5 Be one of those Barbie Dolls that when you want long hair you tug at her head and pull out hair. Then cut it when you want it short, then long again? no problem!-give it a pull!
6 Look outside and see mountains
7 See my family again, soon, real soon...

Things That attract me to the Opposite Sex
1 Confidence- not overconfidence
2 Good growin' facial hair ( my hubby rocks)
3 Burly mountain men
4 Guys in action, doing something really awesome like shootin a gun (and actually does a rock-awesome job) hunting, Or fighting crime as a spy- Bond, James Bond...
5 Guys in uniform, need I say more? WOWza, you could take a kinda good lookin chicken-necked guy, throw em in a Navy, Army or what not(anything but A Catholic Priest) uniform and he just became H O T !
6 I would like to think that he could pick me up without grunting!!!!
7 If he is attracted to me. Call me crazy, but that helps! Because if he can't see a hottie tottie when he sees one, then he's an idiot and Lori no likey the idiots.
