It's November 10, which means we're 1/3 of the way through NaBloPoMo. And I'm just now starting to get to that point where I sit down to my computer and think, "Damn, we're only 1/3 of the way there?" Except sometimes the "Damn" is a stronger expletive.
So for today, a couple memes. This first one I've seen a few different places, but most recently over at Tali Bali.
Choose a band (or singer) and answer only in song TITLES by that band:
I've decided to go with the spectacular Rascal Flatts.

This second one comes from the Meme Queen herself - a countdown meme.

First Best Friend: Leslie B., from kindergarten through 8th grade. I wonder what she's up to these days...
First Kiss: Ross, my high school boyfriend. It was in his car after a day at Disneyland.
First Screen Name: Leggz1369. "Leggz" was what my sister's best friend used to call me, because, as she said, "that's all you are!" '13' has always been my favorite number. As for the '69' all I can say is that I was 15 and the number was funny at the time.

Yes, I read it all! I learnt that I now have some meme's to nick for my blog.... Is getting to be a loooong month yes?
I would not have guessed that your favorite color is orange!
And I like the painting of the girl holding a violin, curious where it's from.
I read the whole thing, and learned plenty.
PS - Thanks :)
Yay music titles meme! And yes, I read to the end, and yes, I learned stuff - Puerto Vallarta in high school (giggity giggity), favorite season is winter (baffling to me), and plenty of other Lara fun facts =)
I think you'd make an excellent mom.
I read all the way through - and I learned lots of things!
I learned you could have spaced that out over a week with your defense being the pressure of this month's challenge. Selfishly I am glad you did it one post rather than going the mini-series route.
I did too! And learnt plenty of interesting things... I also have days where I don't leave the house!
Orange? Love Eva Cassidy!
may have to steal this...but it's hard to choose a band!!!
dancing dragon - yeah, that's because i can't wear it at all, so none of my gowns are ever orange. as for the painting, i saw it in a small gallery when i was in new york. the gallery was closed, though, so i couldn't get a close look to see an artist's name or anything.
gnomesque - you are totally welcome, kid.
amanda - damnit, you're right! hindsight is 20/20...
