It’s MeMe Friday

June 27, 2008

Okay, Ilyka tagged me and I’m coming up with that (Kevin, I am working on your infinitely more complicated tag as well, so this one can be an appetizer) and while I was sitting here not working on purses, I happened on Diary of an Anxious Black Woman and decided that what she is up to looked like fun. So, first, for Ilyka, here are the instructions for the mess she got me into:

List seven songs you are into right now. No matter what the genre, whether they have words, or even if they’re not any good, but they must be songs you’re really enjoying now, shaping your spring summer. Post these instructions in your blog along with your seven songs. Then tag seven other people to see what they’re listening to.

I don’t tag people much ’cause I don’t know anybody, but if you would like to play along you can leave your seven in comments.

Mine:

1. MIKA Love Today. I could listen to this fifteen times an hour and not get tired of it.

2. Everclear Thrift Store Chair. Possibly the best song they ever recorded.

3. Nelly Furtado I’m Like a Bird. This is a total guilty pleasure, but I love her voice.

4. Tori Amos Ireland. There isn’t a bad song on the whole Beekeeper CD.

5. Plain White Ts Hey There Delilah. Did I already use my guilty pleasure card?

6. Jah Wobbles featuring Sinead O’Connor Visions of You.

7. Missy Elliot Work It. Uncensored version, naturally.

Okay, check that off the list, move to the one I stole from Diary of an Anxious Black Woman:

This really appealed to me on a variety of levels, and now I’m really craving some soft-shell crab sushi. Mmmmm…..

Okay, here’s how this works:

rules:

A. Type your answer to each of the questions below into Flickr Search.
B. Pick an image, using only the first page.
C. Copy and paste each of the URLs for the images into fd’s mosaic maker.

These are the questions:

1. What is your first name?
2. What is your favorite food?
3. What high school did you go to?
4. What is your favorite color?
5. Who is your celebrity crush?
6. What is your favorite drink?
7. What is your dream vacation?
8. What is your favorite dessert?
9. What you want to be when you grow up?
10. What do you love most in life?
11. One Word to describe you.
12. Your flickr name. Because I blog under my real name without spaces, it didn’t work, and after trying about thirty ideas I went with “green gypsy” because I was tired of thinking about it and it relates to the costume I’m creating for the local Renaissance Faire in the Fall.

That one was excellent fun, I have to say, and I could waste more than an hour on it, but that’s not making me any money. If you do one and don’t have a blog, upload it to flickr and link in comments.

Get Me a Dousing Rod, I Think There’s Some Irony Here!

October 30, 2007

I apologize in advance, because I loathe John Stossel, but give me a break.

If you’re going to complain and say, “Dismembered women’s body parts are so part of everyday life, you almost have to remind yourself that it is totally fucked up.” Maybe, just maybe, you should make sure that statement isn’t right next to your co-blogger’s book with the naked torso on it.

Plus, I would so totally buy that necklace, and if I didn’t have lots of artistic integrity I’d be knocking it off for the Farmer’s Market RIGHT NOW.
