My Mumbling Thoughts

Used Hack was lovely and tagged me today on his blog. Gosh, I love it when that happens. Not that it happens often, but when it does, I get really excited. It gives me something to post when I'm feeling creatively drained (like recently) and it also gives me something to do while I'm at work.

Now, onto the questions...

1. Do you try to look hot when you go to the grocery store just in case someone recognizes you from your blog?

Yes. Looking hot around the clock is just something that I do naturally. I must be prepared at all times so that means keeping a fresh tube of lipstick on me. It's for the fans, you see.

2. Are the photos you post Photoshopped or otherwise altered?

Not at all. Well, if they are, it's without my knowledge.

3. Do you like it when creeps or dorks e-mail you?

I've yet to receive a creepy or dorky e-mail from anybody. It's all just spam at the moment. Although I can hardly wait for the day to arrive when a creep or a dork does decide to e-mail me.

4. Do you lie in your blog?

Nope. Never have, and don't plan on it. Well, unless you count the stuff about me discovering a cure for cancer and being a spy, then yes, maybe I do lie a little bit. Actually, I really don't see the point of keeping a personal blog if all you want to do is post up lies about yourself.

5. Are you passive-aggressive in your blog?

Ha! I mean...sure. We can go with that.

6. Do you ever threaten to quit writing so people will tell you not to stop?

No. That also doesn't make sense.

7. Are you in therapy? If not, should you be? If so, is it helping?

I'm not in therapy. I've thought about it (once, for about two seconds), but because of how expensive it is, and also because I thought that it was a load of shit, I didn't. I'm sure that it helps others though, so that's what counts.

8. Do you delete mean comments? Do you fake nice ones?

I don't think I've ever had a mean comment. Either I'm so scary and bitchy that they're too afraid to leave me a mean comment, or they become extremely bored halfway through reading one entry and don't have the energy to leave one. And as for the fake ones? Heh. No. I don't like faking anything.

9. Have you ever rubbed one out while reading a blog?

*Ahem* Some things a lady must keep to herself.

10. If your readers knew you in person, would they like you more or like you less?

Well I would hope that they like me more, but you never know. I think I'm about the same behind the screen and in real life, so maybe it wouldn't be that big of a shock.

11. Do you have a job?

Yeah. That's what half of my drivel is all about.

12. If someone offered you a decent salary to blog full-time without restrictions, would you do it?

Well I do have a job where I'm allowed to blog full-time. I have some restrictions, however. I guess the salary could be a bit better. I would do it officially though, yeah. In a heart beat.

13. Which bloggers do you want to meet in real life?

It'd be nice to meet any of them, really. That is if they wanted to meet me too. I'm not about forcing somebody else to keep me company.

14. Which bloggers have you made out with? (a)In real life? (b)In fantasy?

(a) I've made out with Ash and let me tell you, that's my cake and ice cream right there. I was close to making out with Mendy but was told that she respects my authority too much to do that.
(b) Nobody.

15. Do you usually act like you have more money or less money than you really have?

It's not an act. I really am poor. I used to act like I had more money than I was bringing in though. Which resulted in me becoming poor...you see how it is.

16. Does your family read your blog?

Occasionally Mel if she's bored. Momma knows that I have one but doesn't read. She might have forgotten that I have one...

17. How old is your blog?

It's just a wee youngin' at four, almost five months old. Man how time flies.

18. Do you get more than 1000 page views per day? Do you care?

Of course I get more than 1000 page views per day. That is if you take what I really get and multiply that by thirty-five. I'm a stats whore, yes, and love seeing who decides to spend more than two seconds on my website, but it doesn't keep me awake at night.

19. Do you have another secret blog in which you write about being depressed, slutty, or a liar?

If it's a secret, why would I post about it here?

20. Have you ever given another blogger money for his/her writing?

I've considered it, but have never done it.

21. Do you report the money you earn from your blog on your taxes?

Shit, I could make money off of my blog? If I did make money off of it, I'm pretty sure I wouldn't report it. They collect taxes on everything nowadays. They can leave my blog the hell alone.

22. Is blogging narcissistic?

Mine is, I know that for sure. Others who blog about politics or what not, maybe not so much.

23. Do you feel guilty when you don't post for a long time?

Oh yeah. I like posting five days out of the week. If I miss one day, then I feel all off balance. The weekends, however, I normally don't. That doesn't mean that I don't consider it though.

24. Do you like John Mayer?

I'm a big fan of Mr. Mayer, although I think he's too overrated now and it's kind of annoying. I enjoy his music and relate to all of his lyrics.

25. Do you have enemies?

Oh, I'm sure I do, I just don't know who they are.

26. Are you lonely?

I get by. I'm working on changing that though. I'll leave it at that, otherwise we might be here for a while.

27. Why bother?

What's the point if you don't bother? You might as well become a permanent fixture in your grandmother's couch collecting lint if you don't bother. Since I'm allergic to lint, I do bother.

Thanks, Hack. This filled up quite a decent amount of time at work. I appreciate you considering me.

Now it's Erik, Ash, and Leah's turn. Do share with us.
