I’m always coming across these fun little “about me” surveys. I see them on websites, in magazines, I receive them in e-mails, and I think there was one in my high school yearbook. The other day, Christopher—twin brother, separated at birth—posted one on his blog. Today, it’s my turn. I compiled my own survey with questions I’ve seen in other surveys. I also made up a few of my own.

Val! I cannot believe you would have a bumper sticker like that.
I loved Designing Women. My favorite character was Delta Burke's. Of course I loved the accent of those women. Anthony was precious. He and Suzanne were wonderful.
Interesting facts about you!
Oooooo, I LOVED Melrose Place! The greatest moment in television history was when after fooling everyone into thinking she was normal and healthy, Kimberly went into the bathroom and pulled off her wig to reveal her wicked scar! We really were separated at birth. Into the Groove is my favorite Madonna song! And Craig is turning into Hank Hill too!
Ces, for the record, I talk just like Julia Sugarbaker. ;-)
Christopher, you do not say! I hope you do not dress like her, although that Tina Camaro would look good in a Julia Sugarbaker suit. Darn! I can't believe I am telling a man to dress like a woman. Julia was very sexy. She belongs to the same characters as the brunette in Charlie's Angels - the brainy one. In high scool, I had a crush on that brunette Angel, I wanted to be just like her. But I outgrew my idol worship. Now I just like bad old Chinese Kung Fu movies where the fighters dressed in silk robes stop their enemies by whipping them with their long pony tails.
Whenever "Into the Groove" comes on the car radio, I like to pretend I'm Roseanna Arquette driving across the bridge into NYC in a Mustang convertible. I just loved "Desperately Seeking Susan". Aidan Quinn was HOT!!!
I want to BE Julia Sugarbaker. She has the best diction of any TV character before or since. She also has the BEST wardrobe. Her clothes have definately withstood the test of time.
Owen Wilson? Was he the one with Jacki Chan on that western movie?
So where is the photo of the new haircut?
Ces, Owen Wilson was the hot blonde guy in "Wedding Crashers". He was also in "Starsky and Hutch" with Ben Stiller. He does a lot of movies with Ben Stiller.
My haircut was just a trim and looks the same as usual--I don't dare mess with perfection. :-) You can see it on my "Family Night" post below. the laying on the pink inner-tube.
Two years ago I bought 200 boxes of Girl Scout cookies. This year we only bought 150. I am glad they only sell them once a year or I'll get fat just from looking at the boxes. It's crazy writing a huge check for cookies. I also buy from my co-workers. Oh yes, I love Girl Scouting!
