Malissa has to be one of the sweetest bloggers out there; when I read her blog, that’s the impression she leaves. She tagged me weeks ago, but since I’m lousy at these kind of things, I’m just now getting to it. I’ll try my best to keep my answers to four. No promises.
Four jobs I have had in my life:
1. The “line girl” at the Western Sizzlin’ (“What number would you like?”, “Baked potatoes or fries?”, “Peppers and onions, or mushroom gravy?”)(After college graduation, lasted three days because I quit since they didn’t trust me handling the money.)
2. Movie theater concession attendant (we used real butter for the popcorn).
3. Shoe salesman
4. Marketing director
Four movies I could watch over and over:
The Sting, my #1 all-time favorite. It deserves a place above any common numbers.
1. The Sound of Music
2. When Harry Met Sally
3. It’s a Wonderful Life
4. Something’s Gotta Give & You’ve Got Mail (tie)
Four Places I have lived:
1. Atlanta, Ga.
2. Murrells Inlet, S.C.
3. New Ellenton, S.C.
4. NC/SC border
Four things I like to do:
1. Cook (and then eat what I cook)
2. Spend time with good friends (this, after cooking and while eating is doubly good)
3. Listen to my children help each other
4. Read and write.
Four of my favorite foods:
1. Chocolate (cake, ice cream, chocolate just-about-anything)
2. Southern prepared veggies (fresh corn, fried okra, sauteed squash in a pound of butter)
3. Grilled seafood
4. My mother-in-law’s friend chicken (great! NOW I’m hungry)
Four places I would like to be right now:
1. No question, the beach
2. The beach
3. The beach
4. Sitting on the front porch of a cabin in the NC mountains, sipping hot coffee out of a perfectly-fitted-to-my-hand mug, reading a GREAT book, sitting next to my husband
Four websites I visit daily:
1. Weather sites (especially during the school year)
2. Centurytel (it’s my home page, and now that I’m writing that, I need to change it…b o r i n g)
3. iTunes…it’s a kid thing these days
4. My favorite blogs–an ever revolving door.
Four places I have been on vacation:
1. Washington, D.C. (if you haven’t gone, you MUST!!!) I’ve gone half a dozen times and I NEVER get tired of it!!!!
2. NYC, pre-9-11. Went to the top of the WTC, not sure which building. I’ll look for the pics sometime soon.
3. Boston (a GREAT city, exceeded my expectations, wanna take the kids back sometime).
4. Chicago (again, it exceeded my expectations, a beautiful and clean downtown, and so much to see and do, three days wasn’t nearly enough)
Your turn? I’d love to hear your answers!
I’m lurking a bit today. A thought ful comment you left at Iris’s propelled me over here, when really, I should to be working! I’ve read all your posts, and enjoyed ’em. Thanks for the lead to Jennifer’s (Carnival). Have a blessed day!
I’ve never been to Boston or Chicago (except airports, and they don’t count). I really want to see Boston!! I think there is a lot of history to see.
I’ve never had fried Okra – but did have fried pickles once in Alabama. They were different.
Thanks for not tagging me – blogger was being a Beeeoch today. (5 times I tried to download a picture – arrgghh).
Some good answers there. Thanks for making me “B”, its a thrill and an honour.
Blogger has been real cantankerous lately. I can’t help but think pretty soon they’ll be offering a new improved reliable version for a small monthly fee.
Love your movie choices!! Something’s Gotta Give is one of my all time favs!! I’ve lived Diane Keaton’s role except I didn’t end up married with a grandchild!
Thanks for stopping by My Way!
For some reason I am hungry after reading you meme.
I want mine with a baked potato please.
Wow..I’ve actually been posted about. Check my site after the kids nap to see if I’m out of my daze enough to fill this thing out…:)
I’m missing YW! I saw some woman on Dr. Phil yesterday totally full of stress and wondering about her purpose as a Mom and, if I could heard her over the two munchkins, I could have totally related…I really need a refresher!
A shoe salesman, huh? Go figure. 🙂
Thanks for sharing a little more about you…
“You’ve Got Mail” ranks pretty high with me too…The other night we watched “As Good As it Gets” (again) and I have to say that is one of my favorite movies with Jack…
#4 on “things you like to do” – yup!!!!
Four places – you go girl!!! That would have been my answer (and was when I did the tag – *grin*)
Have a blessed day…
“Waiter, there is too much pepper in my paprikash. But I would be proud to partake of your pecan pie.”
Only the best movie ever made. I even put a tribute to it in my novel.
aha! You must like me cause we like It’s a Wonderful Life;)
My dad is from a southern family and he’d eat this massive skillet of fried squash and okra. OH BLECH!
We’d be gagging and he’d be munching away. I’m not sure one out of the 4 of us like that slimey stuff but Dad sure does;)
Thanks for saying I’m sweet;) lol
I wonder if anyone that knows me would agree? hahah!
OK, I’m here to thank you for the tag…I’ll be back (isn’t that a line from a movie?) to read your last two posts. I’m just a ‘little behind’ (not a literal little behind-in that case it would be a large behind) in my reading because of traveling. Stay with me here, my lysdexia and my ADHD kicks in when I have work to do but want to be here reading.
Thanks for the tag 😉 I work on answers today and tomorrow. I am sort of stuck on who will respond *LOL*
TO update you 🙂 I did most of it today….I will finish it tomorrow.
Fun answers. I love city vacations, too. We love NYC and the inlaws live in the DC area, and I loved Chicago, too. I was trying to convince hubby to meet some friends there this summer, but he wasn’t really up for it. He seemed to think it was kind of boring. We will definitely go to Boston soon, because it’s only about 3 hours away from us now.
See–I don’t need a tag, I can just give all my comments here.
You are a sweetums. Totally missed the “L” link the first time through. Thanks so much! I’ll explore your many links–love it.
