A blog I follow An Author’s Quest has a tag post and anyone reading it is tagged. They then pass it on, so here is my part and consider yourself tagged *grin* You don’t have to answer in a post, feel free to answer in the comments if you prefer : )
You answer eight questions, and whoever’s reading said post is automatically tagged.
Consider yourself tagged. (This is totally optional, so please don’t feel obligated to make a post for yourself. It’s all simply for fun.)
Here are the questions!
1.) If you could have a superpower, what would you have? Why?
I’d have wings! Is that a super power? Well if not wings I’d be an elemental with the gift of fire ;p
2.) Who is your style icon?
Marilyn Monroe – as a fellow hourglass 🙂 – did you know only 8% of women have a true hourglass figure? I didn’t until recently
3.) What is your favorite quote?
One I saw on a blog not long ago, ‘I don’t write I rewrite’ something I can totally relate to ;p
4.) What is the best compliment you’ve ever received?
I had the nickname legs!! My legs have never been my fav body part so I was astonished ;p
5.) What playlist/cd is on your iPod/cd player right now?
My running playlist, a mix of enthusiastic and dramatic tracks. They help me think of my story when I run 🙂
6.) Are you a night owl or a morning person?
I’m an early bird and anything I do after midnight is useless
7.) Do you prefer dogs or cats?
Both. I have two dogs and a cat and I’ll never choose 🙂
8.) What is the meaning behind your blog name?
Girls kick ass and I don’t need to be rescued!! Not to say I don’t desire having a partner who is my equal (and I do – so lucky!) but DON’T tell me what I can or can’t do and DON’T make the mistake of thinking I can’t handle a little distress myself ;p
Let's just take care of business right here, shall we?
1. Superpower? Telekinesis–moving things around with my mind. I would have SO much fun and would never have to stop writing (or reading) to get a drink again.
2. Style Icon? Ummm, don't have one. Either style or icon…ask my children if you don't believe me. I like comfortable clothes with classic lines.
3. Not sure who said it, saw it on an Amazon magnet. "A room without books is like a body without a soul" From time to time other quotes speak to me, but this is the one I thought of first.
4. Best Compliment? Either when my husband tells my children they have "The best mommy" or when a friend told me out of the blue that I was "so kind".
5. Ipod? Ummm, I don't even know where it is. A bunch of alternative music from 80's and 90's mostly.
6. Night owl? I used to be a night owl. Staying up til 2 was nothin'. Then I had children who quickly retrained me. I'm generally up by 6 without an alarm clock…right now it's about a quarter to five–a little early for my tastes, but what can i do?
7. Dog or cat? I love them both. Really. But I'm allergic to cats and my eyes will itch like CRAZY if I'm around them…and then swell closed so if I were to get a pet (we have none), it'd be a dog.
8. Meaning of my blog name? Rambles & Randomness seemed to sum up what I do best: ramble on about nothing in particular.
Will have to peek back later to read everyone else's remarks!
Love your answers! I'll just tell you I am a morning person. I am a cat person. I already have the super power of invisibility and my blog name is pretty self-explanatory, don't you think?
Whew!
1. The ability to NOT NEED SLEEP – Imagine all you could DO!
2.Lauren Bacall – the girl kicked ass
3. "I think they names oranges before they named carrots" – Demetri Martin (ok so it might not be my favorite but it makes me laugh)
4. Best Compliment – "you have an insane imagination"
5. I have a playlist now called "Dana" b/c she's the MC in my current WIP 🙂
6. Morning person. Husband is a night owl. I wake up thinking and have to move.
7. BOTH
8. Been Writing – Because when first started writing there was NO balance at all, it was all i was doing and every time people asked me what I was so busy with I'd just say "Oh, Been Writing."
Hey – that was fun.
Oooh Jolene I never thought of not having to sleep.. that is rather appealing – athough I do like sleeping.. But time!
Love your answers. I'll pass on that I'm a morning person, love cats, but want a German Shep one day, have to have quiet when I write, my blog's The Block because that's where bloggers can end up when they stick their necks out (my dry sense of humor).
I happen to LOVE your blog name, and only wish I had been clever enough to think of something like that. I so enjoy these question/answer posts, and always mean to do one myself, but my family provides me with enough fodder.
Thanks Sandra 🙂 and have a go, family life is always amusing and so relate-able 🙂
1) seeing through woman's clothes.

7) I am my wife's subservient
My iPod's playlist is my workout tunes – all heavy metal and progressive rock.
And my blog title is easy – it's my name! Unoriginal, but I'm easy to find.
