If you like hockey, and if you like to see and hear really expressive people, I strongly recommend you hang out at my house on hockey nights, especially when my Favorite Mother In Law is around. ;-)
Book your seats early, places are limited.
And now, for some Crazy Sunday Meme action:
1. What was the best thing that happened to you this week?
I received this kick-ass palm-sized helicopter just because I’m an extraordinary guy. All right, it was a random draw, but I’m still extraordinairy. Because I said so.
2. What was the worst thing that happened this week?
After weeks of trying to upgrade our LMS, we finally did it, and lo and behold, the new component does not appear. I’m puzzled, and so is tech support apparently, they have not replied to my request for assistance at this point. I guess they don’t care that I have 35,000 users waiting for this.
3. Describe an item of clothing that has definitely seen better days but that you refuse to dispose of and still wear. Why won’t you toss it?
It’s a greenish t-shirt. If it doesn’t have 50 holes in it it doesn’t have one, and all the colors of my house are on it. I bought this t-shirt in 1999 when I went to Switzerland, and I wore it every day to renovated our first house in 2003. I keep it because it’s the counterpart to LW’s sexy PJs.
4. Have you ever lied about your age?
Yes. At my old job, one person was telling another that being fat made you look younger. Since I’m pretty overweight, I said: “Yes, nobody ever believe me at first when I tell them I’m 54.” I was 33. He did believe me.
5. Would you rather be behind the scenes or in the spotlight?
I’d rather be behind the scenes, but somehow I almost always end up in the spotlight. It’s my tendency of wanting things done. All right, I’m a control freak.
6. Where was your first out-of-country trip? How was it?
Switzerland in 1999. It was bittersweet for many reasons, and that’s one of my first good blog entries, 10 years later.
7. Do you like surprises? If yes what kinds? If no, why not?
Sure, I like good surprises, like “Hey you won an RC helicopter!”, or “Hey, you won a million bucks!”. I don’t dislike bad surprises as much as I have a tendency to kill whoever gives me the bad news. I’m just kidding. Don’t remind me that Montreal lost yesterday.
8. Have you ever had sex with two different people on the same day?
Of course, who didn’t? Now that I’m married, I’d have to count my hand. It still counts, right?
