Seven Things

Seen at my sister’s:

1. Seven things to do before I die:
Have another baby
Spend two weeks at an Italian villa
Build a custom home
Go kayaking in Glacier Bay, Alaska
Get my will drawn up
Go to one more rave for old times’ sake
Be an active at-home mom

2. Seven things I cannot do:
Snowski
Pronounce the “ar” sound appearing in the word “Charles”
Hear well if I’m not wearing glasses (I stole this from my sis, but it’s TRUE!)
Ignore Powerpoint slides that have been created incorrectly
Admit that “Fight Club” might have been an okay movie
Build a website from scratch
Sing above the B above middle C

3. Seven things that attract me to [my spouse or significant other or best friend]
He is considerate and kind
He is a man who adores his children and lets them know it daily
He is a great housecleaner (which I am NOT)
He is always thinking about The Next Big Thing
He remembers the things I forget
One word: Goatee
He loves me

4. Seven things I say most often:
Rock on
Right on
Cool Beans
Whatever
Yes?
CootieGirl?
CootieBoy – No!

5. Seven books (or series) I love
Jane Eyre by Charlotte Bronte
A Prayer for Owen Meaney by John Irving
Pride & Prejudice by Jane Austen
Christ Clone Trilogy by James BeauSeigneur
Microserfs by Douglas Coupland
A Voice in the Wind by Francine Rivers
The Other Boleyn Girl by Phillippa Gregory

6. Seven movies I watch over and over again (or would if I had the time)
West Side Story
Auntie Mame (the Rosalind Russell version)
My Fair Lady
Pride & Prejudice (BBC/A&E Miniseries)
The Shawshank Redemption
Xanadu
Jaws 2 (it’s not as good as the original, but I love it anyway)

7. Seven people I want to join in, too:

    Owen Meaney – yes.
    Microserfs!

    You can’t say Charles? I never noticed that.

    I almost put Deep Blue Sea as a repeat movie. For some reason I can’t not watch it.

    Good list.
