Denny on August 3rd, 2007

about two weeks ago… I dropped the ball on that one. :) Actually I completely forgot until surfing her site and thumbing through her old posts, so to speak.

I was tagged by the ever eloquent Morgan who authors the thought provoking blog The Process of a Miracle. A 30 day Experiment. In fact, her experiment reached the 30 day mark yesterday and I, for one, hope she still continues to write. She was tagged by Kristina the author of Sir Paul McCartney & The Beatles.

Hey Morgan I realized something… I’m It!!!

Since I was tagged there is a list of ten questions I have to answer. All of them designed to just basically let you know a little more about me.

So the instructions…
1- Remove the blog from the top, move all blogs up one, and then add yourself to the bottom.
Homespun Honolulu, Who’s Yo Mama and Life in the Fast Lane, Sir Paul McCartney & The Beatles guest band purplemelon, The Process of a Miracle, Backwoods Drifter(that’s me!!!!)

2- Give five answers to the following ten questions.

3- Pass this meme on to five fellow bloggers.

So, here we go, the questions -
What were you doing ten years ago? (Five things)

  1. Just getting to the point where my guitar playing wouldn’t empty a room.
  2. Completing my 4th year of sobriety.
  3. Living in a cottage in the woods of northern Ohio.
  4. Perch fishing in Lake Erie.
  5. Working

What were you doing one year ago? (Five things)

  1. 2,3,4 and 5… Working as an electrical contractor all over the state of West Virginia. This is probably cheating but that was literally the only thing I was doing last year. Including most weekends.

Five snacks you enjoy.

  1. I love a bowl of cereal as a snack right before going to bed.
  2. Reese peanut butter cups.
  3. PB&J sandwich
  4. Ice Cream, most any flavor
  5. Cheese Nips

Five Songs you know the lyrics to…

  1. Wipeout… :) The Ventures
  2. Stairway To Heaven, Zeppelin maaaannn…
  3. Nothing Else Matters, Metallica
  4. Tears In Heaven, Eric Clapton… May have to do a youtube post for this one. Sad story associated with this song.
  5. On The Hunt, Lynyrd Skynyrd - Pronounced Leh-Nerd Skin-Nerd

Five things you would do if you were a millionaire.

  1. Purchase the West Virginia Governors office and eliminate a boatload of idiots.
  2. Visit Australia, I may never come back…
  3. If I did come back then I would visit the Alaskan Yukon surely never to be heard from again.
  4. Move somewhere that it would cost $50 dollars to send me a postcard from anywhere.
  5. Buy my parents a new house. Actually this one would be first on the list.

Five Bad Habits.

  1. Pepsi, I’m a certified Pepsi-holic. As the slogan says “Gotta Have It.”
  2. Thinking too much
  3. eating cereal right before I go to bed :)
  4. Voicing my opinion regardless of the consequences.
  5. edited–for content

Five things you like to do.

  1. Read
  2. Hike
  3. Digital photography
  4. Disc Golf
  5. Listen to music

Five things you would never wear again.

  1. Bell Bottoms
  2. Platform Shoes, Kiss style
  3. womens underwear… I promise… :)
  4. a frown, if I could help it
  5. a smiley face t-shirt

Five favorite toys. (For myself this list will probably read like a Best Buy shopping list.)

  1. GPS receiver
  2. my cp
  3. home stereo
  4. digital camera
  5. and my little rubber ducky

Five things you hate to do.

  1. wash dishes, I do it but I hate it.
  2. attend a funeral
  3. attend a wedding, hmm… funny how I thought of this one after the last one…
  4. Being told what to do
  5. saying goodbye

I can’t believe I made it through it. OK so I had to go back and finish a couple but I still made it. We know what this means. I get to tag five other people so they can have as much fun with this as I did.

  1. Yikes, this may take awhile

  2. took me two weeks :)

  3. Now see because I like you I have to do it. :)

    It’s good thing though…I like talking about myself. lol

    Seems I have some thinking to do…

  4. Thinking too much is one of my bad habits as well. Read would also be at the top of my things I like to do list. My home is a library. I keep getting rid of books and somehow more get added to my collection. I don’t know how that happens.

  5. thanx taj :)

    Kristine… I came real close to tagging you too… lookout next time :)

    I’m the same way with books, they are everywhere in my home. I hate to get rid of any of them so the collection grows.

  6. I enjoyed reading about you–you sound like a very interesting person :)

    Great decisions you have made–I’m nearly 9 months out of smoking, still still still want one.

  7. Thanx for visiting and commenting Stacey… I’m about six months since my last cigarette. I had decided to hike the Appalachian Trail and smoking would definitely not help that very much :)

  8. Hey Denny…great job!!! So cheese nips is one of your top five fave foods….very interesting :) Thanks for passing it on

  9. yep Morgan I’m a self proclaimed cheese freak. You would be surprised the looks I get when ordering a cheese burger. “What would you like on that sir?” “Cheese thank you…”

  10. Nice to meet you Denny =)

    Tears in heaven is a beautiful song, always reminds me of my ‘lost’ brother.

    I’m a Coke-a-holic, I know what that’s like. My fix for caffeine =)

  11. Thanx for commenting and visiting Deborah :) Pepsi is definitely my caffeine fix… two cups of coffee to start the day and pepsi the rest of the day :)
