Look, I know that memes are not all that popular. Although secretly, I think that people enjoy reading them just like they enjoy looking at the tabloid magazine covers at the checkout stand and pretending not to.

Personally, I think that every once in a while you come across an interesting meme that actually tells you something about someone that you might not have learned in regular everyday posts.

So, here goes and thanks to Karen over at TrollBaby for this one!

1) When you were really little, what did you want your life to be like as an adult?

“Really little” I’m not sure what the definition of that is. I think I always knew that I wanted kids. I suppose that deep down the whole “white picket fence” fantasy was always there. I did go through a phase when I thought that the only thing I would be was career woman… living my life for “one single passion.” I’m glad I didn’t go that route, I’d have missed out on a lot.

2) What misconceptions did you have about sex?

Well, like it or not, I was raised with the belief that you only had sex if you were married and you only married your best friend. Now, I know that there IS such a thing as meaningless sex done purely for whatever reason (recreation, revenge, etc.) and that if you are LUCKY, the person you marry is both your spouse and your best friend. I’m fortunate enough to have married my best friend… and I can’t complain about the sex either.

3) What do you dream about?

Lately, really bizarre things, in vivid detail and graphic color. My favorite dreams are of my grandparents although my grandfather seems to take center stage (he was probably a more dominant, colorful personality in real life as well) and my grandmother seems to be a shadow in the background. My whole life I have only had a few dreams that I can recall vividly.

4) What’s the hardest thing you’ve ever had to do to someone you looked up to?

Say goodbye.

5) Describe each of your family members using only one word.

Maggie – hummingbird
Katie – firefly
Ethan – jackass
Mike – assmonkey

6) Name something you believed as a child, that you now know isn’t true.

Truth and “right” always prevails.

7) What interest would you like to pursue further?

Interior design

If you could take back one thing you regret, what would it be?

I have no regrets and I find that people who have had to learn the really tough lessons, never regret those
experiences… you are where you’ve come from.

On a lighter note… I am seriously thinking that we should have gone with tile down the hallway in front of the garage going into the family room in the new house… so I regret not doing that and wish I could take it back.

9) What are you most thankful for?

My kids, husband, and family.

10) Describe yourself in one word.

Different.

I’m not tagging anyone, but if you decide to do it, please drop me a comment so I can check out your answers! I’ll even be nice enough to update this post and link to your answers!
