Sunday Stealing - Time Keeps on Slippin'

Time Keeps On Slippin'

Welcome back to Sunday Stealing which originated on WTIT: The Blog authored by Bud Weiser. Here we will steal all types of memes from every corner of the blogosphere. Our promise to you is that we will work hard to find the most interesting and intelligent memes. You may have heard of the expression, “honor amongst thieves”. In that age-old tradition, we also have our rules. First, we always credit the blog that we stole it from and we will “fess up” to the blog owner where we stole the meme. We also provide a link to the victim's post. (It's our way of saying "Thanks!") We do sometimes edit the original meme, usually to make it more relevant to our global players, to challenge our players, sometimes to select that meme's best questions, or simply to make it less repetitive from either this new meme or recently asked questions from a prior featured meme. 
Let's go!!!



This comes from No-boba-Please! (If this is you, please let me know so I can link back!)

1) Do you think Daylight Saving Time is still necessary? Not really.

2) How long does it take you to adjust to the time change? Not long ;)

3) What's the hardest part of the time change? Worrying that my kids will be awake an hour earlier than usual (didn't happen this year - yay!)

4) How many clocks are in your house? Seven, maybe?

5) Are you generally early, late, or on time? I really make an effort to be on time.

6) If an invitation to an event listed the time as 8-11pm, what time would you arrive? Probably shortly after 8pm, unless it was a presentation or something that actually started at 8, then I'd be there a few minutes before.

7) Do you wear a watch? Nope.

8) Have you ever glanced at the time and had to glance again because you didn't pay attention the first time? All the time!

9) Are most of your clocks digital or dial? All digital except for the grandfather clock.

10) What does your alarm clock sound like? Radio.

11) Do you use the snooze feature on your alarm clock? I don't usually, but hubby does.

12) Does clock ticking drive you nuts? Nah.

Sunday Stealing: Questions Galore Part 3

Today we ripped off a blogger named Jenni from the blog Juniper's Jungle. It's long, so we will do it in parts. She states that she found this meme Budgies blog. But, it was probably stolen there as well. So, of course, that will be as far as we go. Tracing back our theft's thieves might take some time. Take the time to comment on other player's posts. It's a great way to make new friends! Link back to us at Sunday Stealing!

Sunday Stealing: The Questions Galore Meme, Part 3

Cheers to all of us thieves!

41. What is a quote that you love? "It's all okay in the end. If it's not okay, it's not the end."

42. Do you think of pure hate as something humanity created? Nah.

43. When was the last time you wanted to scream? Probably pretty recently while my baby was screaming. I hate not knowing how to easily make him happy (besides nursing...).

44. Do you ever at times see the world in black and white? Ever? Probably. But not regularly.

45. Have you ever thought that cell phones are too obtrusive? Absolutely. Admittedly I sometimes I wish I was a bit more attached to mine and didn't set it down somewhere and forget about it, thus missing important calls...

46. In your life, where do you thank the rainbow will end? Huh? I can haz cheezeburger?

47. What is something that you never want to do again? Receive Pitocin. This is a pretty safe answer. I'm done having kids, and don't know of any other reason for them to give me such a vile substance.

48.When was the first time you realized the world was small? I don't remember.

49. How you spend your time contemplating life’s mysteries? There's usually alcohol involved...

50. Ever discuss your political beliefs with people? Sometimes. Although I think I have a lot more controversial views than my 'political beliefs.' I don't think I usually have much to say about politics.

51. Do you care about the environment? Sure.

52. What’s your motto for life? See #41.

53. Is progress destroying the beauty of the world? Not usually.

54. Do you believe there is life somewhere else in the universe? Yup.

55. Would you like to rule a country? Absolutely not. I never even wanted any sort of management position at work. I prefer just being responsible for myself. Okay, and my kids, now.

56. Do you believe everything has a purpose? No. Just look at a slinky...

57. Is war ever for the best? I think this falls along with politics, as a topic I just don't feel informed enough or involved enough to think much about.

58. Could you kill anyone in defense of self or loved ones? I used to think probably not. Now I think self defense would be a less likely reason than protecting my kids.

59. How do you react to people (Such as Governor Rick Perry) who don't believe global warming is really our fault? While I haven't heard much of the background to this story, I wonder whose fault he thinks it is?

60. Does love conquer all? Nope. Sorry.

61. Is euthanasia morally acceptable? On a case by case basis, sometimes.

62. Is world peace impossible? Probably.

63. Is pride a good or a bad thing? Pride, in and of itself, is not inherently good or bad.

64.What do you think is the purpose of your life? Now? My kids.

65. Do you believe in karma? Absolutely. I only hope I can have the opportunity to watch it level the playing field for some...

Sunday Stealing: The Burnt Toast Meme (Part Two)

Is it me, or is this pic creepy?
Today we ripped off a blogger named Fridge from the blog Buzzing Fridge. Buzzing Fridge's last post was in 2010. He states he got it from Toast. Since we've got Toast's pick (Fridge never shared one) we thought that we'd post it. Toast has had a blog since 2003, but when he reinvents it, he deletes his archives. So we have no idea where Toast got it. It's 50 questions, so we will do it in three parts. Had we had found the old blog, we would known where Toast got it from. But, it was probably stolen there as well. So, of course, that will be as far as we go. Tracing back our theft's thieves might take some time. Link back to us at Sunday Stealing!


Cheers to all of us thieves!

26. Who can't you say “no” to? I think I can say no to anything, if I have to.

27. The last song you bought or downloaded? I don't even recall - it's been too long.

28. What time of day were you born? 9:06AM.

29. What’s your favorite number? Why? 13. Just because. And it happens to be my birthday.

Sunday Stealing: The Burnt Toast Meme (Part One)

This was actually from last Sunday (March 6), but since I missed it then, I figured I can do it now, right? Here goes!

This meme is swiped from a blogger named Fridge from the blog Buzzing Fridge. Buzzing Fridge's last post was in 2010. He states he got it from Toast. Since we've got Toast's pick (Fridge never shared one) we thought that we'd post it. Toast has had a blog since 2003, but when he reinvents it, he deletes his archives.

6. What is your favorite ring tone on your phone? I've only got one. Some weird techno beat, I think.

7. What shirt are you wearing? My Detroit Tigers hoodie.

8. Do you label yourself? Nah. The cheap labels fall right off, and the really good ones rip hair out when you pull them off.

Sunday Stealing: The Sunset Meme

Today's meme is stolen from a blogger named Rol Hirst at the blog Sunset Over Slawit. We've ripped from him once before. He states that he doesn't remember where he stole it. But, it was probably stolen there as well. So, of course, that will be as far as we go. Tracing back our theft's thieves might take some time. Link back to us at Sunday Stealing!

Cheers to all of us thieves!


1. What is your favorite Mexican dish? Probably nachos.

2. When you were a kid, did you get started on your homework right away after school, or did you procrastinate? Procrastinate!

3. What is your favorite store for home furnishings? Hmmm....no one store, really. I just know what I like when I see it.

4. When you were young, did you like school lunches? It depends how young. When I went to private school, school lunches were just on Fridays - McDonald's burgers, hot dogs, or pizza (and not lousy school pizza, but real pizza!). What's not to like? Once I got to public school though they sort of lost their charm.

A) Salsa
B) Hip Hop

D) Swing

Probably Hip Hop or Swing. No real answer for why, I'm just going with my gut on this one.

10. What’s the worst news you’ve ever delivered to someone? I suppose that would be up to them, not me to judge.

11. Name something you learned in college that had nothing to do with classes or academics. Growing up has little to do with your age or life situation. It's often brought about quickly by one event.

12. New variation on an old question: If there’s a song in your head that just won’t get out, what is your favorite (or most repeated) line in that song? No song right now...

Today we ripped off a blogger named Ace of Hadeon from the blog My Heroes Have Always Been Scientists. Since it is 100 questions we will do it it in three parts.

Sunday Stealing: The Threesome Meme

Sunday Stealing: The Threesome Meme

Cheers to all of us thieves!

1. At what time of your life were you happiest and why? Hmm....I'd probably say now because my daughter is an absolute joy to me.

2. Where and when did you meet the love of your life?
I first met my husband back in the fall of 1996 when he was at Michigan Technological University with my brother. We fell out of touch, and he married someone else. We re-met in 2004 and have been together ever since :)

3. Favorite item of clothing ever or most treasured possession? I love my 'Maggie's Mommy' hoodies.

4. Must-have makeup or beauty item? Hahahaha...I'm not much of a make-up girl. I always use my Body Shop nylon cloth to wash my face in the shower, and I usually wear black eyeliner and mascara.

5. What do you think is your worst vice or fault .. honestly? I have a lot of clutter.

6. Would you tell your friend, if you knew her husband/wife was cheating on her/him?
Probably not. People tend to shoot the messenger in those cases. I also don't have a lot of close friends, so the odds of me knowing something like that aren't very high.

7. What ambitions, wishes or desires, for your life, do you still hold close to your heart? For my daughter to grow up happy.

8. Where do you see yourself five years from now? The mother of a school-aged child! If I don't have any other children, I'll also plan on working outside the home part-time. If I have another baby, I'll be at about the same point I'm at now ;)

9. If you had the choice of any talent with the penalty that you would lose a talent in exchange, what would you want to gain, and what would you be willing to lose?
Ew. I'd be afraid of giving up anything (especially I can't think of a good talent I have...).

10. Name three things that you do want completed in your life before retiring? What if I'm already retired?

11. Of all of the people out there, who would have been your fantasy date? Date, not romance... Dates are so fleeting. I can't really think of one night I'd want that I didn't have.

12. Google put another spell on you, you have just changed genders for 48 hours... what are you going to do with your 2 days? Heavy lifting and reaching things on tall shelves?

13. If you owned your own island, and got to make it your own country, what would you call it? And why? Beckalicious, of course.

14. If you rubbed the lamp and got three wishes, what would they be? Disappearing debt (everything would be paid for, forever), a magic kitchen to product healthy and delicious meals for my family forever, and good health for my loved ones and myself.

15. What is your earliest memory of puberty? When I think of puberty, the first thing I think of is my first period. And my first memory of that was calling my mom to tell her (since I was babysitting) and then going home and making cheesecake.

16. If you got banished to your Island alone and could only bring five things, what would they be? A working airplane, a healthy pilot, and my iPad.

Sunday Stealing (yes, even a day early!)

Today's meme is ripped off from a blogger named Kuda Girl of the blog named Kuda Girl's Journal. Kuda Girl explains that she ripped it from two bloggers Slay Me Softly and Dragon Fly Lady. But, it was probably stolen there as well. So, of course, that will be as far as we go. Tracing back our theft's thieves might take some time. It has 65 questions, so we'll do it in parts. Link back to Sunday Stealing!

Sunday Stealing

This week's Sunday Stealing was taken from a blogger named Haruechan at the blog Haruechan's Journal. She states that she took it from diek09. But, it was probably stolen there as well. So, of course, that will be as far as we go. Tracing back our theft's thieves might take some time...

01) Are you currently in a serious relationship? Married for four years...I think it's serious.

02) What was your dream growing up? I don't remember any one dream being long-term. I wanted to be a nanny for a little bit, and a professional whistler (okay, I may still have that one), maybe a teacher for a few minutes, or a writer, or an accountant....

03) What talent do you wish you had? Hey, I'm kinda talented on my own, I'll have you know....but I wish I could cook (or maybe I wish I had the motivation to cook).

13) What would you do if you were stuck in an elevator with me? We're back to #10 - I would probably just stand there, or hopefully have my book with me so I could read to pass the time. I'd feel weird talking to you if I didn't recognize you.

14) Worst thing to ever happen to you? Death and the destruction of childhood innocence.

15) Tell me one weird fact about you. I'm quite disturbed by the honey bear. It ain't natural.

19) Do you think clowns are cute or scary? Most of em are cute.

20) If you could change one thing about how you look, what would it be? For now, I'm ready for long hair again (just so I can put it up in a bun and have it out of my way, but still...).

22) What color eyes do you have? Blue.

23) Ever been arrested? No.

24) Bottle or can soda? Bottle. Or can. Or Coke in a glass with grenadine.

28) Favorite thing to do in your spare time? Hmmm...read? I'd like to scrapbook, but I never seem to have enough spare time to set up, do it, and clean up.

30) Biggest pet peeve? It's a Michigan one. I'm filled with rage when I see someone with the license renewal sticker in the middle of their car license plate instead of in the corner where it belongs. I'm upset just writing about it.

31) In one word, how would you describe yourself? Real.

32) Do you believe/appreciate romance? Sometimes.
