Wanting to post something today, we found ourselves looking up various blogging memes. We came across Sunday Stealing, which we’ve seen recently at other blogs we visit, notably Goodwill… We like talking about ourselves, so we thought what the hell. Without further ado:
Jack’s Answers
A. Age: 35
B. Bed size: Queen
C. Chore that you hate: Washing the bathroom floor. I much prefer watching Jill do it.
D. Dogs: None currently. Had a couple when I was a kid.
E. Essential start to your day: Sex, even if by myself.
F. Favorite color: Blue
G. Gold or Silver: Gold
H. Height: Five-something
I. Instruments you play: Acoustic guitar
J. Job title: Self-employed
K. Kids: Just one
L. Live: Yes I do!
M. Mother’s name: Ma
N. Nicknames: Captain
O. Overnight hospital stays: None for myself, though I did stay a couple nights when Jill was giving birth.
P. Pet peeve: Thoughtless people, people who refuse to think for themselves, and pretzel M&Ms. Jill says I should say, “When I meet a woman and we’re not having sex within twenty minutes.” I will state for the record that we technically do not have an open relationship and that she is full of shit. Okay, maybe it still pisses me off, but I no longer expect it.
Q. Quote from a movie: “The dude abides”, from The Big Lebowski, and “Do or do not. There is no try”, from The Empire Strikes Back (as long as George Lucas didn’t change that line for the Blu-Rays).
R. Right or left handed: Correct – I mean, right-handed.
S. Siblings: None by birth, but plenty of siblings-in-law.
T. Time you wake up: Anywhere between five-thirty and eight. In a given week, no two mornings are the same.
U. Underwear: Boxers. I like my boys to hang free.
V. Vegetable you hate: Cauliflower? I’ll eat it, but it’s quite possibly my least favorite.
W. What makes you run late: Masturbation
X. X-Rays you’ve had: Too many to list. My most recent was a chest X-ray.
Y. Yummy food that you make: My signature dish is a pork roast.
Z. Zoo animal: Primates. Any will do, as long as they’re only jerking off, and not hurling shit at me and my family.
Jill’s Answers
A. Age: 40
B. Bed size: Big enough for three, or four if we get creative.
C. Chore that you hate: Vacuuming
D. Dogs: We don’t have any. Nothing against dogs. We love them. When I was younger my family had a dog, but it bit a neighbor kid so we had to get rid of him. Years later, a dog followed my brothers home from school. It stayed with us for about a year then moved on, presumably to win the love of some other family and then stomp on their hearts as it did ours.
E. Essential start to your day: Coffee
F. Favorite color: Green and purple
G. Gold or Silver: Gold, but I prefer white over yellow
H. Height: Five feet, three inches
I. Instruments you play: I’d say the skin flute, but that’s way too easy
J. Job title: Educator and shaper of young minds
K. Kids: One
L. Live: California
M. Mother’s name: Mom
N. Nicknames: Princess Jill
O. Overnight hospital stays: Gall bladder and pregnancy
P. Pet peeve: People who blow spit bubbles. Spit is generally gross, and I do not want to see it in any form
Q. Quote from a movie: A tie between “There’s no crying in baseball”, from A League of Their Own, and “That was a very expensive vase, you bitch,” from The Secret of My Success
R. Right or left handed: Left
S. Siblings: Many
T. Time you wake up: 4:45 AM on most days
U. Underwear: Thong, or none if I’m wearing a skirt or dress
V. Vegetable you hate: Brussels sprouts
W. What makes you run late: Can’t find my keys
X. X-Rays you’ve had: Gall bladder
Y. Yummy food that you make: Chicken cordon bleu
Z. Zoo animal: Giraffe
We enjoyed writing this installment of Sunday Stealing, but there’s a possibility that we won’t do it again, as next week we’re planning to launch our own ongoing Sunday meme. We’ll see.
Well, I loved reading both of your answers…so I’d miss seeing regular installments of this meme. That being said…I’m intrigued by the thought of you starting your own Sunday meme…so I’ll be on the lookout.
Jack – This is not ‘Nam, there are rules. Love Lebowski. BTW, thanks for sharing the pic of Jill scrubbing the floor. I’d prefer to watch that too!
Jill – YUM to the pic that Jack shared. Sorry, got distracted for a moment. Really enjoyed your answers too. 4:45am?? Yikes.
Thanks Will! Lebowski rules! We’ll see about maybe alternating between the two memes on Sunday, or maybe doing both. But Sundays are pretty busy in the Jack and Jill household, so this may be a tall order.
