holy crap, i've been tagged

Wow, I just got tagged by Hannah at Millner's Dream for a meme. Not sure where the name meme came from but I will happily play along. I just hope I can get all of my links to work.

Four Jobs I Have Had:

Mom - The job I currently hold

Properties Designer for the Performance Network

Theatre Apprentice and later Education Outreach Coordinator for The Purple Rose

Deck hand at Sheplers Mackinaw Island Ferry for 2 outrageous summers in the early 1990's.


Four Movies I could watch over and over:

I am Trying To Break Your Heart - The Wilco Documentary

Raising Arizona - An alltime classic

16 Candles -- A John Hughes Masterpiece

The Big Lebowski - Hilarious on so many levels. "The dude abides.."


Four Places I have lived:

Detroit, Michigan (15 years)

Indian River, Michigan (3 years and summers during college)

Adrian, Michigan (4 years for college)

Ann Arbor, Michigan (going on 14 years. I was recently notified of my status as a "townie")


Four Places I have vacationed:

Kauai, Hawaii 1996 for our honeymoon.

London and Paris - Summer 2002

St. Kitts -- January 1999 to celebrate Nini's 80th birthday

Florida -- Winter 2005. Boca Raton to visit friends, and a trip to see The Mouse.


Four TV shows I watch:

Project Runway (which I have already discussed)

The Office (The British version, although I like the American version too. Steve Carell is hilarious!)

The Sopranos (New Season starts March 12!)

Grey's Anatomy (I am becoming a fan!)


Four Websites I visit daily:

Doulicia

Via Chicago (a Wilco fan site. I am a notorious lurker)

Very Mom (Very witty)

Savage Chickens (for my daily dose of chicken humor)


Four favorite foods (but there are really so many more than four...)

Bi Bim Bop from Kosmopolitan in Kerrytown!

Chipati from Pizza House

Sabor Latino -- Mark is such a regular here, they drop off an iced tea before he even sits down.

This meal that I had in Miami (Cuban food)


Four Places I would rather be:

On my feet walking around like normal

someplace warm

Zingerman's Deli having a bowl of soup and a sandwich

At PT working on getting my ankle back to normal. (This will start sometime soon)


3 People I am tagging.

Doulicia (because she doesn't have enough on her plate...)

K at Name the Blog

Ahava at This Path

These are the three people that have actually been brave enough at one time or another to leave a comment on my blog. Thanks for that! More people should speak up!

OK, as the token Canadian I feel it my duty to say that MEME is a french word (which may have nothing to do with the origin of why it is used for "tagging"). With it's proper little chapeau (a big grin at our friend at Milliners Dream) ^ it means same. So, perhaps it is about asking the same questions over and over again?
I suppose I ought to say, French is one of our two official languages. I took ten years of French immersion schooling... in another lifetime. Off to try and figure out how to just copy the questions to my blog.... and here I was all proud for finding out how to put in links?!

Thanks for the tag! I am heading over to do it now. I love these things - and learned something new about 'meme', too. I hope your ankle gets better! I'd be glad to send Reiki your way any time you like.

Now that's weird...I like anonK's explanation better...but in this post of mine:

http://millinersdream.blogspot.com/2005/09/personal-image-meme.html

I referenced this:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Meme

which said meme is from the Greek.

So much fun to read all of your memes, ladies dear.

Ahhh yes, but Milliner... you forgot that the French put on a little chapeau! So, they may have stolen it from the Greeks (didn't we all?). But as only the French can... they dressed it!
Feeling rather frisky this brisk morning! Must be the increased use of that brain of mine. Shocking what one can remember with use!

Oh and if you were to catch me in downtown Montreal with the whole Greek issue.
"C'est la meme chose!" I'm sorry the computer won't let me do ^ on the e!!!!!!
"It's the same thing!"
K -must run off some steam at my own blog, but there are boys to be cared for...

T$--I have so many questions...amongst them: Is Jeff Daniels as delightful as he seems.
I read a story a few years ago about him being at home in Michigan at a 7-11 (?) one evening when two girls were there all dressed for their prom. They'd been stood-up, or didn't have dates, or something. He went home got his tux, and with his wifey's blessing (and in fact, I read she took souvenir photos for the girls) HE escorted them to their prom. True?
