Change it's as good as a rest

I've nothing much to say so I thought I'd add an award and change my background colour in the hopes of making you all think there was something happening here.

I could do Wooly's meme I suppose. Should I do you think? These are the rules

1. Link to your tagger and post these rules on your blog.
2. Share 7 facts about yourself on your blog, some random, some weird.
3. Tag 7 people at the end of your post by leaving their names as well as links to their blogs.
4. Let them know they are tagged by leaving a comment on their blog.

So . . . 7 facts

1 My evening viewing is currently dominated by Scrubs and Monkey Business neither of which I watched till I've been staying with my brother (who I really should thank for the free lodgings without him our imminent return home would not be possible). Which leads to two questions

a)How will I cope without knowing what is happening to JD and all those primates even though it all happened years ago?
b)Is anyone actually making NEW telly programmes?

2 I got a bronze medal for disco dancing in the dim and distant eighties I was even wearing leg warmers at the time. Come to think of it you probably only had to turn up in the leg warmers to get the medal

3 I am really jealous of the students at the Geography Dept where I am working at the moment when I see the titles of their dissertations (god how nerdy is that?). So I have learnt that geography is in fact not just ox bow lakes. Although I still maintain that it is that ox bow lake nonsense that is taking up the brain cells that would otherwise enable me to learn French.

4 I'm scared of geese and they know it

5 Leading on from 4 I have a very strong instinct for self preservation and will always ensure that TS is between me and any geese. In the same way as I will also check that I could trample anyone between me and the emergency exit on the plane and quite unconsciously stepped just out of reach when TS was about to grab me for support when he was slipping in mud. It's not pretty but there you are I can't be relied on to sacrifice myself in a crisis.

6 I have a craving for liquorice tea and I absolutely have to buy some before we go back to France. I'll then have one or two cups and leave it to moulder in the back of a cupboard.

7 I'm not really material or into gadgets (except for those little magazines with the big slippers in) but I long for one of those Mac Air Books. You know the advert where they are slipping it out of the A4 envelope. It is just so so perfect.

That's my 7 then and you have no idea how long it took me to come up with them. TS suggested I included my special trying on clothes face but I don't think you need to know about that surely the leg warmers are bad enough.

Feel free to come up with your seven or even one or two. I nominate everyone on my side bar.

Hey!! I love the color! Good job!

Breezy said...

Aaah SITH the Ballroom Princess how fabulous I bet you had a really princessy dress and everything. Much more glamorous than leg warmers

MOB you fill your days up with so much you put me to shame I'm sure I'll have lots more to blog about when I'm home

Aims TS said it was the most horrible shade of blue he had ever seen I said that would be because it's violet (he's a tad colour blind)

A 'trying on clothes' face? Oh, we so need to know about that :0)

Debra in France said...

Hey Disco Dolly!! Like the new colour. I can't believe that you like liquorice tea, if you bring that foul stuff to my house I buy a goose!

Does this mean I've got to think of another 7 things? I've only just started on the script for my B movie 'Killer Slugs in Gingham'

Hi breezy, long time since I called in, I know. Nearly got the shock of my life when I saw the words, 'when we return home.' thank goodness you mean French home, phew!
Erm, I have also tagged you for the 7 things meme. Never mind, it was good to read yours (in advance!) anyway. An' I love the new colour, too. K xx
