Oh no - I'm It!

I've been tagged by two lovely ladies: Janet Summer Johnson and Shannon O'Donnell. If you haven't met them yet, you've really got to visit - they're terrific! :)

Okay, here we go...

Are you hot?

Nope. Not a chance. I have a thyroid disorder & I'm always cold. :)
 
Upload a picture or wall paper you are using at the moment.



 Nope - he's not mine, he's the son of a family member. And he's the cutest cutie-patootie going! :)

When was the last time you ate chicken meat?
Last night. Delicious! Marinated & bbq-ed. With new potatoes, mushrooms & zucchini - awesome!

The Song(s) you listened to recently?
Beautiful by the Barenaked Ladies
California Dreamin' by Queen Latifah
Take it Easy by The Eagles
LOVE my iTunes - it's always on shuffle and you never really know what's coming up next!

What were you thinking as you were doing this?
Help! I'm terrible at these things!

Do you have nicknames?
Not really. Finnegan for some strange reason when I was a kid, but that's it.

Tag eight Blogger friends.

1. Riley Redgate
2. Laura Pauling
3. Lisa Gail Green
4. Laura Marcella
5. Julie Musil
6. Susan Fields
7. Rosalind Adams
8. Beth

Who's listed as number one?
Riley. I met Riley over at Agent Query Connect. She's an amazing teen writer who's got a great eye for detail and a very generous heart!

Say something about number 5.
Julie is one of the sweethearts of the bloggy-verse. She always makes me think and her approach to life is full of optimism.

How did you get to know number 3?
It's been such a long time, I'm not really sure. Lisa is always so much fun on Twitter! Love Lisa's twisty takes on all things paranormal over at her blog!

How about number 4?
Laura's zebra always makes me smile! I think I met Laura through her Monday quote posts - love them!

Leave a message for number 6.
Susan - I love your "about me" description on your blog. I used to think I was the only one with eclectic ideas all over the spectrum. So glad to know I'm not alone!! :)

Leave a lovey-dovey message for number 2.
Laura - you're a total sweetie! I love the way you break down plots - your analysis style totally rocks!

Do number 7 and number 8 have any similarities?
Aside from being 2 of the sweetest people in the bloggy-verse? They both have open, generous hearts and are kind and wondeful ladies!

(Please feel no pressure to complete the tag - it's all about fun, not to cause stress!)

Phew! I made it. I have the HARDEST time with these things. Hope you enjoy meeting 10 of the nicest people in the bloggy-verse (don't forget Janet & Shannon up top!).

So, what's on your computer's background right now??

Awwww! See? I didn't get the whole message!!! Oh well. Thanks for tagging me, and for the sweet words. :D I want to say I heard about you on Tahereh's blog ages ago?? But then again I could be LOOPY. That wouldn't surprise me in the least.

Beth Zimmerman said...

Awww ... thanks Jemi! You're pretty fabulous yourself!

Jemi Fraser said...

Lisa - You're very welcome!! :)

I think you might be right - it might have been on Tahereh's site! It's been a while tho!

Jemi Fraser said...

Beth - you're very welcome!! It's a pleasure to be able to tag you & your generous heart! :)

Lola Sharp said...

I love itunes too. I love to set it to random shuffle when I'm cleaning. :)

I hope you're done with school, if not already, then SOON.

Happy weekend, love.
Hugs,
Lola

Jemi Fraser said...

Lola - I'm always with my iTunes! :)

We still have another week and a half before we're done. It wouldn't be bad if it wasn't so hot! My classroom feels like an oven some days!

Alex J. Cavanaugh said...

You must be skinny - skinny women are always cold, even in summer!

Jemi Fraser said...

Alex - I wish!!! The thyroid definitely doesn't help in that department :)

Leslie S. Rose said...

I can confirm that Julie is just as sweet in person, and Lisa is completely paranormal (in a good way). Thanks for some new-to-me bloggers to check out. Your chicken meat dinner sounds delish!

Jemi Fraser said...

Leslie - it really was wonderful!! :)

Julie & Lisa are fabulous - hope you enjoy meeting some other awesome friends!

Laura S. said...

Cool fun!!

Rosalind Adam said...

Thanks so much for my tag. Fascinating questions you had to tackle. I have a thyroid problem too. I'm always feeling the cold and I blame it for my dry skin and brittle hair too. As it happens I also had a yummy chicken meal last night. Thanks again for the tag. I'm off to visit some of your other taggees (is that a word? It is now!)

Cute tag post! I love that you have to say something about your bloggy friends. Fun.

Jemi Fraser said...

Nichole - thanks! It is a fun one - but I have to say choosing people always stresses me out! :)

Anonymous said...

I too love the name Finnegan. Though it seems like a strange nickname for you. I am also a BNL fan. Seeing them is concert is always a blast!

Jemi Fraser said...

REbecca - We had a kids' tv show called Mr. Dressup here in Canada. One of the puppets was Finnegan - I'm guessing that's the origin! :)

BNL sure put on a fantastic concert - SO much fun!! :)

Riley Redgate said...

Thank you for the tag, Jemi! You have the most generous heart of all. <3

LOVE the Barenaked Ladies. XD

Jemi Fraser said...

Riley - awww thank you!! :)

BNL are such a great group - love their sense of humour!

L. Diane Wolfe said...

That would be my thought while doing this, too.

Talli Roland said...

Barenakedladies! I miss them. Must find my CD now...

And what a cute screensaver!

Jemi Fraser said...

Diane - glad I'm not alone - these things tend to scary me! :)

Jemi Fraser said...

Talli - thanks - he's adorable! :)

LOVE BNL - they're such smart song writers!

Its great to know you a little bette. And isn;t it fun to dress the tikes up in cute clothes? Women aren't the only ones who like to do that.

VR Barkowski said...

I agree, that is one cutie-patootie! My computer background? A black and white vertigo-inducing photo I took from the foot of the Eiffel Tower.

I'm off to visit some new blogs. Yay! Thank you!

Sharon K. Mayhew said...

I wonder what was the reason behind Finnegan.

Take care.

Jemi Fraser said...

Medeia - Yup! He's the cutest!! :)

We had a show called Mr. Dressup that everyone loved when we were little. One of the puppets was Finnegan - I guess that was the origin.... I think :)
