Meme, Myself and I

I'm back from Denver and a full week of consulting.  I'm back from a weekend of hanging light fixtures, painting, and getting the new place ready.  (Yes, yes, yes... I know... I'm not hanging light fixtures, I'm not painting... I only play at getting the house ready... I watch my Ex do all the work.  Let's give credit where credit is due.  I do pick out really fine restaurants for payback dinners though... you can give me that much.)

To center myself, I check out Suz's blog and see the "Four Things Meme." I'm game, though I doubt there is too much interesting about my meme:

Four Jobs I’ve Had

*  Counter girl at Hardees the summer before my freshman year in college (couldn't eat hamburgers or french fries for a year afterward)
*  Accounts payable and data entry at Brookhart's Building Center, Colorado Springs (during what should have been my sophomore year of college when my father decided "not to throw good money after bad" upon seeing my freshman year grades -- hey, they weren't that bad... my father's standards were too high -- and I had to find a way to fund my ski-bunny lifestyle in the Rockies and cultivate my love for cowboys.)  That's where I touched my first computer.  The rest is history.
*  Crisis and group counselor
*  Online Community generalist... you need it, I do it.


Four Movies I Could Watch Over and Over

*  The Goodbye Girl

*  Enchanted April

*  Sense and Sensibility (with Emma Thompson)

*  Practical Magic

Four Places I’ve Lived

* Brooklyn, NY
* Goeppingen Germany
* Taipei Taiwan

* Ironsides, Maryland

 

(Notice that each locale is more exotic than the others)

Four TV Shows I Like

 

* Anything with CSI in its title

* Weeds

* Sunday Morning

* Anything with Investigation in its title

Four Favorite Foods

* Fresh artichokes

* Tomato and buffalo mozzarella salad

* Avocado sprinkled with fresh lemon, salt and pepper straight up

* Wine -- almost any kind

Four Places I’d Rather Be

* Almost anywhere on the Atlantic seashore below the Mason Dixon Line
* Adirondacks
* Rocky Mountains
* With my kids and granddaughter

Four People I’m Tagging

* Dan

* David
