Happy memorial day everyone! It’s the Monday that most Americans celebrate with a day off, cook outs and parades! Thanks to all of the veterans out there and there families! I celebrated already, by watching the girl who leapt through time, which i watched for the first time on memorial day last year. I think I’ll watch it every year. Also, stay tuned for my one year anniversary post on Wednesday the 30th!
Anyway, much belatedly I would like to thank Lina at Tiny Ugly Animal for nominating me for the neat blog award! Sorry Lina, I didn’t mean to take this long. Maybe if I was neater I would have posted this before three months had passed from when I was actually nominated.

She had some great questions and I am so sad that I didn’t answer them sooner, because they are brilliant!
Potatoes?
I love potatoes, but my brother loves them more. He once asked to have only potatoes for his birthday. Potato soup, twice baked, scalloped, mashed and I don’t remember what else. All I know is that it was awesome!
Shoes?
I don’t own as many as I used to. I used to own a lot of shoes, but I managed to wittle it down and I’m hoping to wittle them down even further, along with the rest of my wardrobe, over the summer this year. I want to become more of a minimalist when it comes to my closet. Its tough though. Shoes are the easy part, I’ve preferred going barefoot for as long as I can remember. If only social and protective reasons didn’t make them necessary.
The color Purple?
I have neither watched the movie nor read the book, though I have heard only good things about both.
Flying Pigs?
There’s a restaurant where I live that has a flying pig hanging from the ceiling. Its funny, because next to it there’s a sign that says something about how the food will only be good when pigs fly. The foods delicious, the price are high and the owners a jerk.
Tom Hiddleston?
I’m not ready to answer this right now. I’m too traumatized at the moment to think about anything that has anything to do with him. I… I….. *bawls* I can’t do this! Why did it have to happen a third time! Why!
Big Hands?
Is this supposed to make me think of something dirty? Haha! Think again! My mind is not so easily put in the gutter! Oh… wait….
Gasoline?
Sorry, I’m still put out of sorts by the last two questions… um… too expensive?
Again, sorry it took me so long to answer these Lina. I think there are a couple more I still have to do as well, isn’t there?
Anyway… hmmm… questions…
Lets continue the trend!
Hats?
Dolls?
Pyramids?
Birds?
Dentists?
Burritos?
This Video?
Nominees
Matt AND the voice in his head
Lina (cause I want to see her answers to one word questions)
Until next time!
Haha big hand? I am also wondering where my mind should be going on that one.

Haha, awesome answers! Don’t worry about the time, I have awards laying around for the same amount of time that I have still to do. They just pile up somehow. But I think I will toggle this one straigh away. I promise I won’t send it back to you though. 😎
I like your brother. 😉 For one birthday I wished for nothing but my grandma’s meatballs and bread. I got what I wished for; a huge amount of meatballs (I don’t kid if I say there was a hundred) and probably five loafs. Ah, it was really nice. Also, I turned 18 at the time.
Yup, loved all your answers!

This was fun, thanks again!
I sometimes feel like our birthday wishes can get more outlandish as we get older as we finally understand what’s actually possible, even if not practical.

I’m glad you liked it, and of course you deserved every award I threw your way!
I think you are right. There is also the fact that the older you get the harder it is to know what to wish for. You don’t want to be greedy but also you have most of what you want or you can buy it yourself when you want it. So, meatballs and potatoes is perfect then.
