A Random Meme

Posted on April 15, 2006March 10, 2022 by romanagiulia

…Because I haven’t done one of these in a while….’cause, like I’ve said it before, it’s my blog and I’ll meme if I want to. Oh and Robin had it on her blog….ssso…

  1. Grab the book nearest to you, turn to page 18, and find line 4. (book) (actually a magazine)
    Selezionedei migliori legni lavorati con il metodo listellare, per una maggiore durata, e finiture curate nei dettagli solo da maestri artigiani italiani.
    [transl: A selection of the best wood, worked with a special method, for a longer duration, and finishings that are cared for in the details and by Italian artisanal masters.]

and the actual book:
Rather than focus solely on interactions between Europeans and non-Europeans, we shall also examine interaction between different non-Europeans peoples—especially those that took place within sub-Saharan Africa, Southeast Asia, Indonesia, and New Guinea, among peoples native to those areas. Guns, Germs & Steel Jared Diamond.

  1. Stretch your left arm out as far as you can.
    Cable modem.
  2. What is the last thing you watched on TV?
    Music Farm, crappy Italian reality TV show. Italian pop singers live together and compete, kind of an American Idol Italian style. Oh and in the process of being eliminated, some of the “artists” have to lose weight as well. Pretty bad, my friends, pretty bad.
  3. Without looking, guess what time it is.
    9:43 p.m.
  4. Now look at the clock. What is the actual time?
    9:42 a.m. (woah)
  5. With the exception of the computer, what can you hear?
    nada
  6. When did you last step outside? What were you doing?
    Earlier today, shopping for flowers, plants and actually, watering lavender plants.
  7. Before you started this survey, what did you look at?
    The sink with dirty dishes in it…while I was loading them in the dishwasher.
  8. What are you wearing?
    Shirt, khakis, sweater.
  9. Did you dream last night?
    Yes, but I don’t think I want to disclose that kind of information.
  10. When did you last laugh?
    Earlier today…but it wasn’t a good hearty laugh…that I did on Thursday. Why? For me to know…
  11. What is on the walls of the room you are in?
    Four framed paintings I grew up with….they look like charcoal drawings. I don’t know who made them. Two framed imaged of my dad’s work. Built in bookshelves.
  12. Seen anything weird lately?
    Hmmm…I live in New York City…it’s a given.
  13. What do you think of this quiz?
    Eh, not too bad, not so good.
  14. What is the last film you saw?
    Syriana
  15. If you became a multi-millionaire overnight, what would you buy?
    Shares of something secure, technology galore, maybe invest in brick?
  16. Tell me something about you that I don’t know.
    Hmmm…I used to stuff peas up my nose? No, that was a really looong time ago. People who yell scare me and irritate me profoundly.

    More peace
  18. Do you like to dance?
    One of the things that I love to do most.

  22. Would you ever consider living abroad?
    Absolutely.
  23. What do you want God to say to you when you reach the pearly gates?
    You see? I’ve been here all along…
  24. Four people you would like to see do this meme on their blog:
    I don’t want to impose anything on anyone…
