We start the moving process today. So in a few hours, I will be without internet. My internet should be back within a few days. However, my cable company is quite sketchy, and that isn’t a guarantee. Anyhow, I just wanted to post this to let all know that if I go without posting for a few days, I haven’t kicked the bucket or met my maker or anything like that. I’m just moving. 
Not that you spend extensive amounts of time worrying about me or anything. But I’m just saying.
Anyway, I picked up some new readers recently, and well, I think it’d be nice if you introduced yourselves and tell me a little about you. Old readers too. In case you have nothing to say, here are some questions I thought up, you can answer in the comments. And when I regain internet, I’ll answer them myself.
1.) If you could skip any day of the week, which would it be?
2.) What is your favorite book?
3.) If you had lived back in the day when people though the Earth was flat, would you have been open to the new idea that Earth is actually round, or stayed with the old idea of flatness?
4.) Can you roller skate?
5.) Are you right or left handed?
6.) What song do you most despise?
7.) What is the most embarrassing CD you own?
8.) What one word can you NEVER manage to spell correctly without the assistance of spell check?
8b.) What was the first cassette tape you ever purchased? (Not CD, cassette.)
9.) What issue is currently bothering you the most?
10.) Why do you visit Shamelessly Sassy? (Read: fishing for compliments to read after carrying massive boxes.)
11.) What is your greatest accomplishment?
12.) Brag about yourself here. Why are you so awesome? (because you are, for sure. Particularly if you had good answers for (10).) What do you do best? What area are you the go-to person for?
It would be awesome if some of you answered these questions. I’m really excited to see the results.
(Just in case anyone is internet challenged, the easiest way to go about doing this would be to copy and paste the questions into the comment section, and then answer below each one.)

What a great idea! We’ll miss you while you’re unconnected.
1.) Wednesday. It’s just kind of blah, and I’m usually burned out from having assumed during the first half of the week that I can survive on 4 hours of sleep a night.
2.) Hamlet or the Fountainhead. I think Objectivism is a crock, but it’s a really good book.
3.) I would like to imagine that I’d be open to the round thing, but in reality, probably not. *sigh*
4.) As of 20 years ago, yes. Is it like riding a bike, I wonder …
5.) Right handed
6.) Pachelbel’s Canon. It’s not a canon, darnit!
7.) Take That’s Greatest Hits. (I can’t believe you got me to admit that. They were big in Asia and Europe.)
8.) referral (Yep. Used spell check.)
8b.) Oooh … something by Toni Braxton. I lived in Bangladesh, and CDs didn’t make it there until I after I left when I was 18.
9.) Intolerance, particularly of the racial/ethnic/cultural and religious variety.
10.) Because you make me think. Because I feel like I’m not alone in being constantly amused and bemused by my kids and life. Because I feel like I’m making a new friend.
11.) Keeping my family together through two Iraq deployments.
12.) I’m pretty good at balancing things, like my kids, my husband, my job and my friends. At work, I’m the make-sure-my-team-finishes-everything-we-start person, and I’m (mostly) good at nagging nicely.

5.) Are you right or left handed? right
6.) What song do you most despise? Electric slide
7.) What is the most embarrassing CD you own?
Embarrassing CD? What are you talking about- I am waaayyyy too cool to own an embarrassing CD. My hubby however owns several girly ones.
8.) What one word can you NEVER manage to spell correctly without the assistance of spell check? I’m actually a pretty good speller.
8b.) What was the first cassette tape you ever purchased? (Not CD, cassette.) Not sure- super bad memory but probably 50’s and 60’s even though I was born WAY after that.
9.) What issue is currently bothering you the most? racism
10.) Why do you visit Shamelessly Sassy? (Read: fishing for compliments to read after carrying massive boxes.)I think you’re funny.
11.) What is your greatest accomplishment?
I’m a good mom.
12.) Brag about yourself here. Why are you so awesome? (because you are, for sure. Particularly if you had good answers for (10).) What do you do best? What area are you the go-to person for? I make a mean cheesecake, baklava, oh- I make a lot of good food. I am a good artist and proud of my photography. I am a great mother and wife (also sister and aunt). I think my kids will grow up with terrific childhood memories.

Let me first say that I have been reading for only a few short months, but believe me this website has changed me. You were my first introduction to a real person blog (ie–talking about your real life) and its made me want to make my own. Which is why I haven’t been commenting; because I haven’t finished my blog set up and don’t think its ready yet (can you say perfectionist???). I’ve never been a computer person, but I’m slowly learning. Blah blah blah. Sorry for the long intro…. Ok here goes…..
1.) If you could skip any day of the week, which would it be?
Any day my husband works the moment he wakes up til the moment he goes to bed. They aren’t often, but they suck.
2.) What is your favorite book?
Not sure I have a favorite. I love too many. But one that will always stick with me is “A Child Called ‘It’ “. I bawled the whole way thru.
3.) If you had lived back in the day when people though the Earth was flat, would you have been open to the new idea that Earth is actually round, or stayed with the old idea of flatness?
I would have thought the first guy was crazy and would have demanded more proof. Then I would have thought “well where’s the proof that the world is flat?”. And then gotten mad that I had been lied to all those years. I have issues apparently! LOL.
4.) Can you roller skate?
Barely. Stopping?? Not so much.
5.) Are you right or left handed?
Right. But I can Sign easily on both hands.
6.) What song do you most despise?
Anything with lyrics “slap my bitch up” or “she’s my whore” or anything like it.
7.) What is the most embarrassing CD you own?
I kid you not I have the music to “the Party”. Anybody remember them? Think Disney-like pop group. Total cheese.
8.) What one word can you NEVER manage to spell correctly without the assistance of spell check?
embarrass and haven’t (I always leave out the “e”).
8b.) What was the first cassette tape you ever purchased? (Not CD, cassette.)
Paula Abdul-Forever Your Girl. And I choreographed a dances to it and made my cousin dance with me. There are videos to prove my complete dorkiness.
9.) What issue is currently bothering you the most?
Housesitters who are neglectful to the point where my cat had to have surgery and almost died in her care. My kitty just had surgery last night. I’m a wreck.
10.) Why do you visit Shamelessly Sassy? (Read: fishing for compliments to read after carrying massive boxes.)
First, read my intro. Secondly, seriously you have the funniest blog hands down. I talk to my husband about you like we are actual friends. You are my blogging hero. Wow…. I need help.
11.) What is your greatest accomplishment?
Since I don’t have kids yet, can’t say that. Its a toss up between achieving my black belt and having the strength and conviction to pursue my singing, which is how I met my husband.
12.) Brag about yourself here. Why are you so awesome? (because you are, for sure. Particularly if you had good answers for (10).) What do you do best? What area are you the go-to person for?
This one is funny. Well I guess my close friends think that I am awesome because I can say whatever is on my mind and totally be outrageous in a law abiding way. But on a serious side, I think that I’m the friend that is the mother and the shoulder to cry on, and the one with solid advice.
Good luck with the moving. I have friends who just had triplets in December (!!!) and are moving this coming weekend. Dear Lord! Hopefully that helps…..
March 25th, 2008 at 1:45 pm
1.) If you could skip any day of the week, which would it be? Definitely Tuesday. It has no personality. Monday is just plan blah because of work. Wed is “HUMP” day, how awesome is that? Thursday hangs out with Friday. Friday is the light at the end of the tunnel. And Saturday and Sunday = bliss.
2.) What is your favorite book? The Alchemist by Coelho or The Prophet by Gibran
3.) If you had lived back in the day when people though the Earth was flat, would you have been open to the new idea that Earth is actually round, or stayed with the old idea of flatness?

9.) What issue is currently bothering you the most? Racism for sure.
10.) Why do you visit Shamelessly Sassy? (Read: fishing for compliments to read after carrying massive boxes.) Because you have a friend that shit your couch, you froze your daughter’s baby, you said vulva in a post, and other random stuff.. I just love it.
11.) What is your greatest accomplishment? Knowing every word to the movie Pretty Woman. Oh , and maybe my kids. LOL
12.) Brag about yourself here. Why are you so awesome? Because I will beat anybody in a radio car challenge. I can name that tune in one note Alex.
What do you do best? Sleep.
What area are you the go-to person for? Diaper changes, feedings, laundry, dishes, dusting, car pooling, toy buyer,etc. Crap I sure do a lot huh?

Been reading since I voted for the Bloggies and saw you listed… You are 1 of 2 blogs that I read even though you only posted partial feeds (BTW, thanks for switching over to full)…
1.) If you could skip any day of the week, which would it be?
Monday, except then it would just make Tuesday mornings miserable instead.
2.) What is your favorite book?
Pillars of the Earth - Ken Follett

Not anymore, maybe with practice.
5.) Are you right or left handed?
Right

Ice, ice baby… At the hockey arena, every time I hear the beginning I expect Under Pressure and then it’s SUCH a disappointment. I should get over it, oh well.

1.) If you could skip any day of the week, which would it be?
Lately, it’s been Saturday, of all days. My whole day is sucked up into “visiting” and it’s just not fun anymore.
2.) What is your favorite book?
I can only have one? Waah! I’ll give you my “deserted-island” can’t live withouts instead: Man’s Eternal Quest (Paramahansa Yogananda), A Course In Miracles, the Bible, and the entire Outlander Series (with mysterious beach-landings of any new books in the series) (Diana Gabaldon). Man, did I ever cheat on that question!
3.) If you had lived back in the day when people though the Earth was flat, would you have been open to the new idea that Earth is actually round, or stayed with the old idea of flatness?
If you could prove to me that no one fell off, I would go with the new idea.
4.) Can you roller skate?

5.) Are you right or left handed?
Left, but can do many functions ambidextrously.
6.) What song do you most despise?
Roxanne, by Sting
7.) What is the most embarrassing CD you own?

I have no idea. That was too long ago, lol.
9.) What issue is currently bothering you the most?
The never-ending bamboozling of the people by less than sharp leaders of a certain country who insist that really, no, if I shut my eyes, you can’t see me!
10.) Why do you visit Shamelessly Sassy?
I’m a fairly new reader, so I have been delighted by the posts I have read thus far (remodeled anus, anyone?). You have a great sense of humor and you are an insightful writer, two must-haves in any blog I spend time reading.
11.) What is your greatest accomplishment?
WIP. I’ll reserve the answer for later.
12.) Brag about yourself here. I write. I have a great sense of humor. If you need help finding a resource, I am your go-to-girl. I’m friendly (unless you surprise me). I am compassionate and have a big heart, so don’t go squashing it, k?
Good luck on your move!
March 25th, 2008 at 4:29 pm
Alright, if you insist:
1.) Thursday. I have six straight hours of classes Tuesday and Thursday, and by Thursday I am Burned Out. So yeah, let’s get rid of that.
2.) Eek! I can’t answer this one. I love to read, and there are way too many good books out there.
3.) I probably would’ve stuck with the idea of flatness. I mean, the earth LOOKS flat from where I am. Why would I accept the ideas of some crazy guy?
4.) Define “can.” I mean, I can kind of sort of roll, but not gracefully and I’m still working on that stopping thing.
5.) Right.
6.) At the moment, that Umbrella song by Rhianna. I don’t know why, but it really gets under my skin. Unfortunately, it’s also really catchy, so it gets stuck in my head.
7.) I think I may have an *NSYNC CD around here somewhere from back when they were popular.
8.) Vacuum. Thank goodness Firefox has spellcheck.
8b.) I honestly don’t remember.
9.) Stress about finding a summer internship
10.) Shamelessly Sassy is endlessly entertaining and well written!
11.) Yikes- I’m 21, do I have to have one yet?
(10).) Organizing events and stuff. I’m good at making sure stuff gets done.

Lottifish’s last blog post..Back from my Easter Weekend Getaway
March 25th, 2008 at 6:01 pm
Sure, I suppose I could find it in myself to talk about myself, since you twisted my arm
1.) If you could skip any day of the week, which would it be?
Honestly, 8AM on Monday through 5PM on Friday. That’s sad. I know.
2.) What is your favorite book?
Where the Heart Is by Billie Letts (better than the movie; so much heart and great characters)
3.) If you had lived back in the day when people though the Earth was flat, would you have been open to the new idea that Earth is actually round, or stayed with the old idea of flatness?
I embrace new things, at least long enough to give them a good look see in case the new way of thinking is the right way of thinking. Sometimes it is.
4.) Can you roller skate?
I haven’t tried since about junior high, but I was very good at “couples skate”
5.) Are you right or left handed?
Right
6.) What song do you most despise?
I don’t even know the names, but lots of hip hop. Except the one about reaching back like a pimp to slap the ho because that’s almost funny the way it’s worded (no, not funny in real life, I know, I know).
7.) What is the most embarrassing CD you own?
I’m not even sure I own CDs anymore… Peter Paul & Mary 10 Years Together (except that I’m not actually embarrassed)
8.) What one word can you NEVER manage to spell correctly without the assistance of spell check?
Proceed (my brain thinks it’s procede…)
8b.) What was the first cassette tape you ever purchased? (Not CD, cassette.)
Wow. No idea. Last album was Anthrax State of Euphoria, though
9.) What issue is currently bothering you the most?
I should be wound up about a lot of stuff, but we’ve decided not to decide anything for a few months, so I’m back to wondering what flavor to make my latte. Tough decisions.
10.) Why do you visit Shamelessly Sassy? (Read: fishing for compliments to read after carrying massive boxes.)
Ever since your neighbor sharted on your couch, I have been in love with you. You always crack me up.
11.) What is your greatest accomplishment?
Some days not slapping anyone. Other days not smoking (9 months now). Traveling to Hong Kong alone years ago. Lots of random stuff. None exactly “great,” but they are mine.
12.) Brag about yourself here. Why are you so awesome? (because you are, for sure. Particularly if you had good answers for (10).) What do you do best? What area are you the go-to person for?
Me? Totally awesome every way. I know how to use the semi-colon without fear. I am within 20 pounds or so of looking hot (though I’m having trouble getting there without sucking poison…). I know drive-thru combos by heart by number and by meal (like McD’s #3 for breakfast or TBell #1 for dinner). When people have really simple questions about Excel, I’m the girl for the job. Recently, I’ve learned how to cook stuff that actually tastes good (following simple recipes). And I am ridiculously cheap but never actually feel like I’m skimping because I’m frugal like that. I could go on. I won’t. But this was fun!
Hope your move is going well! Not envious, though

I’ve planned so many parties (from Nemo and Strawberry Shortcake to Harry Potter and Pirates). Hubby and I are actually thinking of starting a kid’s party planning business.

Stayed with the flat. Because I am. Flat, I mean.
4.) Can you roller skate? No.
5.) Are you right or left handed? Right
6.) What song do you most despise? Right now that Fergie song is annoying me (Clumsy)
7.) What is the most embarrassing CD you own? Got rid of a lot of groaners, but I kept Savage Garden/Affirmation for sentimental reasons.
8.) What one word can you NEVER manage to spell correctly without the assistance of spell check? Supercalifragilisticexpeialidocious
8b.) What was the first cassette tape you ever purchased? (Not CD, cassette.) Must have been the Bay City Rollers.

10.) Why do you visit Shamelessly Sassy? (Read: fishing for compliments to read after carrying massive boxes.) I think you’re hilarious. You make me laugh every time I come over here. You had me at shart.

11.) What is your greatest accomplishment? Gotta be my two kids; but perhaps the precursor to them, bagging the perfect guy for me; I know, I’m such a sap.
12.) Brag about yourself here. Why are you so awesome? (because you are, for sure. Particularly if you had good answers for (10).) What do you do best? What area are you the go-to person for?
Okay, here we go. I am awesome because .. shit, I’m so bad at this. Well, I’m not exactly what you see is what you get. I think I’m a pretty good friend, although I don’t have a lot of really close ones. I can keep a secret and can give fairly balanced advice. I may seem serious, but I think I’ve got a pretty crazy sense of humour. I’m Ms. Entertainment Tonight (I’m the go-to person for questions about who acted in what and with whom, and how many kids they may have had with which spouse…. stupid crap like that) even though I haven’t been out to see a good movie at a cinema since the birth of my son, nor do I read gossip mags. Celebrity idiot savant?!
And I just signed up for a suicide mission … a 4 hour hip hop aerobic dance marathon to raise money for AIDS next week. At the risk of throwing out a geriatric hip or having a massive coronary. But I gotta do this before I turn 43. All for the sake of keeping some bounce in my flat ass.

Good luck with the move!

I imagine you don’t really need me to ‘delurk’ as I am a shameless stalker of your page, without the anonymity of course. But who am I to pass up a chance to tell me than you already know??
I am a righty that can roller skate with minimum hysterics and am pissed off that the school I was enrolled to start will not allow NON OH residence into the program any longer. I can’t get enough Shamelessly Sassy Stories.
