Well, another year has passed and circumstances have prevented me from finishing the next book in the Rona Shively Stories series. Fear not, it’s on the way. I just had a few minor personal catastrophes to deal with first. In the meantimes, I wanted to share something fun here. I know many people say that you shouldn’t do these things because hackers will get your personal information, but I assure you that there is no classified information contained in my answers. So, take a look at this comparison between my 47 year-old self and my 50 year-old self. Feel free to do your own A-Z assessment. 🙂
THE ABC’S OF ME!

Right or Left handed – Right Siblings – Two sisters TV – The Good Doctor, Grey’s, The Masked Singer, New Amsterdam Underwear – Absolutely!

Instruments you played – Still haven’t picked that up. Job title – Publisher/Salary Administrator by day Kids – One wonderful daughter Last ate – Oatmeal Mom’s name – Brenda Nickname – Beaker Overnight hospital stays – Maybe four or five…thankfully no more since then. Pet peeves – I still don’t care for people who don’t take time to think about what someone else may be going through. However, I’m more annoyed by people who choose not to pay attention to the truth. People who bury their head in the sand and just let bad things happen rather than taking action to stop it. Quote from a movie – “I wouldn’t say I’ve been missing it, Bob,” Office Space or “Looks like I picked the wrong day to quit smoking,” Airplane, “You know I don’t speak Spanish,” Ron Burgundy, or anything similar to these. Right or Left handed – Right Siblings – Two sisters TV – Various anime series and the occasional K-drama. Fruits Basket, To Your Eternity, Death Note, All of Us Are Dead, Little Women, The Sound of Magic, etc. Underwear – Again, absolutely! Vacation favorite – I do love the Grand Canyon/Las Vegas, but any vacation would be great at this point. Ways to relax – What is that? Relaxing? X-rays – None for a while now. Yummy food – Pizza, lasagna, eggplant parmesan – though nothing is really tasting all that great these days. Zoo favorites – Lions, tigers, and…I don’t know…bears. Why would I change this answer? It’s my favorite. |
