I used to do quite a lot of memes, but then someone got the idea that you should be tagged by someone before you do a meme. I don’t really understand why- memes are a great way to get into the head of a blogger, IMO.
Busy Mom did us all the favor of tagging EVERYONE (in the sense that you, you, you, and you means EVERYONE) so yay, a meme I don’t have to step on toes to do!
Four jobs you’ve had in your life: working the snack bar at a local swim club, customer service manager for a home improvement center (you know, one of those Home Depot precursors), store manager for a local record shop (yes, we sold El Peas), & Customer Retainment Specialist for a cellular phone service (when people called to cancel because their service sucked it was my job to convince them it didn’t suck and they should stay with us. This was back in the day when all cell service did in fact suck.)
Four movies you could watch over and over: I’d have to include Animal House, anything by Monty Python, anything by Christopher Guest (including This is Spinal Tap) and Office Space. Obviously if it doesn’t make me laugh I really don’t need to see it again, no matter how good it is.
Four TV shows you love to watch: Desperate Housewives, The West Wing, Arrested Development, and Law & Order – Criminal Intent (that’s my current fave L&O but I like them all.) If I could add a fifth it would totally be Best Week Ever!
Four places you’ve been on vacation: LBI, Los Angeles, Niagara Falls, and WDW.
Four websites you visit daily: Common Ground, Yahoo, Boing Boing and anything new off the blogroll.
Four of your favorite foods: Brownies (see this post), pad thai, chicken parmesan, & grilled salmon.
Four places you’d rather be: Walt Disney World, a warm beach, the Whitney or MOMA in NYC, in my finished addition.
Four albums you can’t live without: Bruce Springsteen The Rising & Born to Run, Beatles White Album, and Neil Young Greatest Hits.
Four people you’d tag to play this game: Bluegrass Mama, Lisa, YarnMom and EVERYBODY ELSE!

I would love to play. I’m such a newbie I’ve never been tagged so *I* feel special. But first… you have to tell me what Meme stands for! I actually googled it today with little luck. I”m well into my G and T right now so my defenses are down and I’m showing you and anyone who reads this just how clueless I really am!
It has become very clear to me that for the most part, folks don’t want to be tagged. Understood.
HEY… guess what? Julian turns FIVE tomorrow!! How is it possible???
