Meme Going Around
1. WERE YOU NAMED AFTER ANYONE? No, I don't think so.

4. WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE LUNCH MEAT? Any but bologna.
5. DO YOU HAVE KIDS? Does a bear live in the woods? Yes, I have six wonderful kids.

7. DO YOU USE SARCASM A LOT? What's a lot?
8. DO YOU STILL HAVE YOUR TONSILS? No, I hope not, unless the doctor missed something when I was five.

10. WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE CEREAL? Special K with Strawberries.

18. WHAT COLOR PANTS AND SHOES ARE YOU WEARING? Black pants, no shoes.
19. WHAT WAS THE LAST THING YOU ATE? Weiner sandwich.
20. WHAT ARE YOU LISTENING TO RIGHT NOW? In the background or listening, really listening? Oh, let's just skip this one. Listening isn't my thing, anyway (unless you have a problem you want me to listen to.)

22. FAVORITE SMELLS? Food cooking.

33. HUGS OR KISSES? Friends or Hubby?

36. WHAT IS ON YOUR MOUSE PAD? Some bank I've never heard of. Don't know where it came from (the mouse pad, I mean, not the bank. I think I know where banks come from but I won't tell you as this is G rated. Just kidding.).

42. WHERE WERE YOU BORN? Vancouver, Washington. That's Washington State, not Washington, D.C. And that's Vancouver, Washington, on the southern border of Washington across the Columbia River from Portland, Oregon, not Vancouver B.C. Have had to convince a lot of people I'm not Canadian. Maybe I should answer "where are you from" with: "Not D.C., not B.C." It could be a riddle.
If anyone reading this would like to answer these questions, please feel free to pick it up from me as I picked it up from others. Just copy, delete my answers, and insert yours. If you do, I'd love it if you'd leave me a link to your post.

I enjoyed reading this, MM. Some of your answers made me laugh.
One thing we have in common is that we both like cherries a lot. My dh always kids me about that because when we used to bring dinners to my mom at the nursing home, (she was too ill to leave then) she always said after eating a full meal, "We should have eaten the cherry pie first!"
She had dementia and was always saying funny, but honest things like that.
