Yay for me! Now I have something for Tuesday. BTW, who is hosting Monday tomorrow? I can't remember. Oh, & know what? The way I told Pup SD was coming was ala Love Shack. I had Cheesecake Factory write "Tin roof rusted" in chocolate on his plate. Crack me up. The twinning continues.
I thought the same thing as AFF - now I have something for Tuesday!
I'm halway through Eat,Pray,Love. Great book! I love her use of metaphors.
love it, esp the friend part. i just sent you an email girl, kathleen :)
I used to love playing Crazy 8 with my dad.
This Eights thing looks like thought provoking-work. You like an interesting variety of songs. Love Shack is one of my favorite dancing tunes.
Great post; fun to learn something new about you. I, too, am going through the Harry Potter books and Poisonwood Bible is one of my favs!
Thanks so much for playing along! I love learning more about my net friends via memes!
Sweet Baby James - yes - every summer camp night had this song.
And Shook me all night long - every dance in middle and high school had THIS song :)
Love Shack is my favorite. if it is possible, I now like you even more.
Oh, yay! This meme looks like it'll be fun to fill out. Thanks!
It is wonderful that your #1 thing you say is "I love you." If more people could claim that, the world would be on its way to being nice....
Oh tanks Blue Momma! Now I have something to do this week. i should probably keep a list of memes so I have something for those days where I have nothing. Like today. So I did a poll.
Love the lists :)
Like your 8 songs!!!I'm doing this too later this week.
Holy moly! I love 5-7 on your music list! AC/DC is one of Buddha's fav groups! Good times.
I'll find some time laster today or tomorrow to do the Crazy 8. Oy vey, I'm running around like a chicken with its head cut off!
PS
I do a MEAN Love Shack when I'm wasted and have a Karaoke microphone within arm's reach.
Interesting meme...curious set, but interesting. Thanks for sharing.
aren't you just LOVING Eat Pray Love? So good.
