Copycat

Ok, I read Shannan's blog today and I have to copy her cute little Layers Q & A (in my defense she even admits to copying it somewhere, so we could view this as a progressive trend maybe?)
Anyway, here goes:

10 LAYERS OF ME

LAYER ONE: ON THE OUTSIDE
Name: Tara
Birth date: 3/9/??
Birth place: St. Edwards in Fort Smith
Current Location: In a metal dwelling somewhere deep in the woods!
Eye Color: Blue eyes
Hair Color: Well, that depends, today-blonde, 5 weeks ago-red, tomorrow-who knows!
Righty or Lefty: Lefty-woo hooo!!! Diversity :)
Zodiac Sign: Pisces-that sensitive, intuitive, feelings sign which everyone thinks I have none....

LAYER TWO: ON THE INSIDE
Your heritage: Not sure, but I can tell you what I would like to inherit! :)
What Shoes Did You Wear Today: Hey, I thought this was "On The Inside"....oh well, I wore my brown "fart" shoes.
Your weakness: Lots of things... Kylie's smile, food, Kyle, CLOTHING!
Your fears: Lots of those, too....being alone, no one liking me (yup, I do have feelings!!!), rejection, failure in important areas of my life-job, kids, marriage.....
Your perfect pizza: I am pretty simple...I like pepperoni, cheese, and a slightly thick crust.
Goal you'd like to achieve: Ultimate goal-my own successful business....ongoing goals-getting my Masters degree

LAYER THREE: YESTERDAY, TODAY, TOMORROW:
Your most overused phrase: Well, since my daughter has copied it, I would have to say "That's so CUTE!" However, it's probably "Seriously..."
Your thoughts first waking up: Saturday...is it Saturday?
Your best physical feature: Probably the things I bought....
Your bedtime: Hopefully around 9:30 as my morning starts early....5:30 a.m. early!

I also miss my friends.

LAYER FOUR: YOUR PICK:
Pepsi or Coke: Diet Mt. Dew
McDonald's or Burger King: Well, I guess I would have to say Mickey D's.
Single or group dates: I like both....in moderation. I am a social butterfly and need to be around people to thrive, however I also like quiet alone time as well.
Lipton Tea or Nestea: Lipton Tea
Chocolate or vanilla: Swirl
Cappuccino or coffee: Cappuccino definitely...more specifically a WHITE CHOCOLATE MOCHA... I have developed such a Starbucks addiction!

Get along with your parents: It's amazing how well you can get along w/people when you don't live with them.
Like thunderstorms: They are awesome under this metal roof! As long as they don't get too violent!
Play an instrument: I played the clarinet in like the 6th grade, but other than that, I can't play a single thing.

LAYER SIX: IN THE PAST MONTH
Drank alcohol: Ok, is this a month with 4 weeks or 5 weeks. I need to know that before I could answer some of these questions..... :)
Gone on a date: If you count going to Wal-Mart with the husband and kids a date, then yes, I have been on many of them!
Gone to the mall: Now who would ask a silly question like that to me? Uh, hello I was there today!!!
Been on stage: Believe it or not yep! I was in the "Follies" w/some friends when we were in high school...now there's some blackmail pictures of myself!

Stolen anything: I stole this survey from Shannan.... :)

LAYER SEVEN: HAVE YOU EVER
Played a game that required removal of clothing: Yep
Gotten beaten up: Physically? No. Oddly enough people are scared of me.
Changed who you were to fit in: I think Shannan had the right view on this...adaptation.
But yes, I have done some silly things to fit in. I can say I have grown out of that for sure. I am who I am...like it or lump it. Because either way, the other people will do what they want to in the end!

LAYER EIGHT: GETTING OLDER

Describe your dream wedding: It will always be the wedding on a beach....oh well...I got close!
How do you want to die: Before my money runs out and I have to stay in some nasty excuse for a nursing home....
What do you want to be: Is this another grown up question? Well, I would like to be my own boss one day.....
What country would you most like to visit: Spain

LAYER NINE: IN A GAL/GUY
Best eye color?: It's sad, but I don't even notice eye color!
Best hair color?: Anything but red....I think brown is safe here.
Short or long hair: ? Not particular as long as it looks good.

Number of scars on my body: At least 4
Number of things in my past that I regret: Well, I have a few regrets....so let's just pick a number and say 3. But hey, I can say that things have worked out for the better ultimately, so I guess they were worth it.
************************************************************************
Ok, you bored yet...sorry I am just not that interesting!
I meant to write earlier about Mom's surprise 50th Birthday Party. She was completely surprised...but she didn't cry during her slideshow! I was practically bawling the last week or so while I was trying to finalize it! Oh well....it was still good.
No work for me tomorrow! YIPPEE....sleep tight!
