Seven is Heaven

by Marilyn on August 31, 2005

I got this from Zoot who got it from Janet who didn’t tell Zoot to do it, who didn’t tell *me* to do it. But here I am, doing it anyway. Am I a big fat loser or what?

7 things I plan to do before I die:

  1. At least 1 more kid, people, PLEASE!
  2. Visit New Zealand and take the LOTR tour.
  3. Go on at least one cruise, I don’t care where (though I’d prefer Mediterranean or Alaskan)
  4. Maybe think about attempting to finish a novel for publication
  5. Take H (and whatever kids we manage to have, if any) to Disney World.
  6. Go to Hawaii. Veg out.
  7. Take a trip around Europe, maybe doing the Band of Brothers tour.

7 things I can do:

  1. Taco tongue! No one else in this family can do it (except maybe H, once he hones his talents)
  2. Dink around in php and css until something resembling a decent looking blog arises from the ashes.
  3. Quote obscure movies with my husband, so obscure half of them I don’t remember which movie they’re from anymore
  4. Take an average song and “rewrite” it to be about our pets (such as “The Stinky Cat” to the tune of the “Facts of Life” theme song).
  5. Kill houseplants. Truly, I’m a master.
  6. I can make my formerly busted right ankle pop whenever I rotate it.
  7. I can bore hundreds (tens?) of people who dare to read my blog.

7 things I cannot do:

  1. Drive a stick-shift (yeah, me too, Zoot)
  2. Iron (me too, Zoot and Janet)
  3. Organize myself to make things just the slightest bit easier.
  4. Drive the speed limit most times.
  5. Go a day without at least checking my email.
  6. Back the big van out of the garage when the little van is parked on the other side of the driveway
  7. Have a baby, it would seem :P

7 things that attract me to the opposite sex:

  1. Eyes… expressive, kind eyes. *sigh*
  2. Sense of humor (me too, Zoot and Janet)
  3. Self Assurance
  4. Great with kids (like Zoot, I’m not really a kid person but its so nice to see him be so *easy* around them…and yes, I’m talking about K!)
  5. Protectiveness (but not over-protectiveness)
  6. Capability
  7. Strength (but not necessarily bulging biceps and pecs)

7 things I say most often:

  1. I’m so teepy! (teepy=sleepy)
  2. Tiger!!! (or… Cinder!!! Damn cats)
  3. Get the kitty! (said very quickly and quietly to the dog…such a good dog)
  4. Too bad. (said whenever H bemoans his fate)
  5. Can you do me a flavor (flavor=favor, said to either K or H)?
  6. OMG, I hate this computer (referring to either the laptop or the desktop, I’m not choosy).
  7. You’re my bestest boy in the whole wide world (said to H)

7 celebrity crushes (ONLY 7?):

  1. Brendan Fraser
  2. Harrison Ford
  3. Orlando Bloom (but only as Legolas)
  4. Heath Ledger
  5. Colin Firth
  6. Matthew McConaughey
  7. Sayid from Lost

7 people I want to do this:

  1. Fuzzy
  2. Kate
  3. Garnet
  4. ms thang
  5. Dooneybug
  6. kiwi
  7. Denise, if she had a blog ;)
