Melanie Likes To...

You know how sometimes you need a little distraction? Well, this was an amusing little activity shared by my friend Susan. You type "(Your name) likes to" in a Google search and take the first ten things that pop up...

1) Melanie likes to say things like “let’s get this done right” and then skip a step or two or 10.

2) Melanie likes to sing... and rap.

3) Melanie likes to complain, a lot!

4) Melanie likes to pass the time playing Pictionary with her fellow military families.

5) Melanie likes to paddle down the Goulburn River in her kayak.

6) Melanie likes to flick...

7) Melanie likes to quote me.

8) Melanie likes to show off her most recent work on Region 3 Interpretative Planning.

9) Melanie likes to change her hair often.

10) Melanie likes to be nude.

I am amused (and maybe chastised?) by #1, jealous of #5, curious about #6, impressed by #8, and embarrassed (oh, that's punny!) by #10. Join the fun and leave your list in the comments! (Pretty please?)

I have an exam this Saturday, ALREADY. Literary Criticism. Ugh. Well-wishes and prayers welcome.

Check it!


That is my very youngest nephew, my sister Amy's little one! The hospital has a system that lets you watch the ultrasound online if you have the password. Isn't that amazing? Very cool!

*****

Another nephew/niece should be arriving sometime soon... we'll keep you posted on that!

Yet another tooth has been whisked away by the tooth fairy! Maren was pretty proud of the bloody space in her mouth yesterday morning and very pleased that the tooth fairy wasn't too busy to get around to her pillow the first night. (I'll try to get a picture up soon.)

You're right! It's hilarious - and enlightening! I already knew about the birhday cake oddity, but Mel, Oh My!

When I tried this, the funniest were: "Barb likes to play old-time fiddle tunes" and "Barb likes to remind agents that, 'If you can smell it, you can't sell it.'"
(You know, I always wanted to play the violin!)
