Yikes!

Ok. This is such a lame TT. But I've had **no** time. So here are a list of 13 topics that I plant to use at TT's in the near future - vote for your favorite and I'll do it next week.

  1. Guilty pleasure movies
  2. "Guy" movies that I love
  3. Favorite paintings (with pictures)
  4. People I admire (and why)
  5. Great things about where I live
  6. Horrible things about where I live
  7. Areas for personal improvement
  8. Favorite quotes
  9. Actors I love
  10. Websites I love
  11. Cooking mistakes I've made
  12. Reasons I'm so ready for spring
  13. Reader's choice*
* Ok for the last one, if you hate 1-12....put in your own topic.

For #12 you can do the same thing for summer, fall, and winter or the reasons you dislike them. Happy TT

#5 Interesting things about where I live

I love to travel and maybe I'll visit your city one day and what you write here will help me get the most out of my visit.

K. said...

Yes.

Oooh, cooking mistakes. Yah, those can be fun. I like your list! I think for number 13 you could maybe do the questions thing again, with the bonus limerick, of course, because all that was bunch o' fun!

Thanks in advance for mentioning me in #4. Some possible reasons to add me: I am awesome. I am super good looking. I make a mean cup a' joe. I am a complete stranger who you do not know but I am old friends with Kelly and she can vouch that I am all of the above. Great TT, even though it WAS a bit lame.

I want GUY movies that you love!

Malcolm said...

It's a tossup between 1 and 2. However, I am interested to find out what "guy" movies you like.

Kaige said...

I didn't think it was lame, but kinda cool. Cooking mistakes could be fun! I'm sure I have thirteen of them, but memorable ones? Good luck with it and i hope your schedule eases up for you!

Happy TT!

Reading about your cooking mistakes could be interesting!

K. said...

I've never heard of michaeltadams, I don't know what he's talking about, and if he calls your TT lame again let me know and I'll kick him the next time I see him.

lynda w said...

I vote websites. I'm always looking for new places to check out.

HEY! No with the kicking. I was responding to the authors own words, in a supportive yet slightly sarcastic way. I don't actually think it's lame, I retract, I recant, I reotherwordsthatmeanthat!
You're all so sensitive.
