Liebster Redux: 11 Badass Questions From M

My badass home girl M Hufstader of the killer blogs The Smoking Pen and Feed Me A Stray Cat, has tapped yours truly to receive her Liebster Award. Hell Yeah! And while I've tapped people already for this award, I'm still going to share 11 more things about me because well, you all want to know more don't you? I knew you did. LOL

But first let's get to M's Q's shall we?

3-D Yes or No?

I'm going to have to go with no as the tech leaves me with a headache so why pay more to be in pain.

Lord of the Rings or Star Wars?

I'm a total wimp. I can't choose as I love them both equally, but for very different reasons.

What movie would you like to see in theaters that you never got to?

Gone With The Wind. I have never ever seen this on a big screen and would relish the experience.

What's your major draw for a movie: actors, director or script?

Script. I have to have a great story in order to shell out for tix. I can honestly say that I have never chosen a film because of a director or actor.

Who is your favorite person to watch movies with?

My nephew. He sits there, shuts the hell up and let's it ride. And he likes all the movies I pay to see in the theater.

Who are your top three action heroes?

Indiana Jones, Bruce Lee and Mallory Kane. For those not familiar with Mallory, she's from Soderbergh's epic film Haywire.

The zombie apocalypse is upon us-what movie characters do you want in your camp to keep you alive?

Hmm...Machete, Alice from Resident Evil,  Ripley and Vasquez from Aliens and The Terminator. I think they could work well together. I would also include any Shia LeBeouf character because we need zombie snack cakes in case things get tight.

Who is the one actor you love to hate?

That's easy, Keira Knightly. Completely over-rated and over-used. Need an English girl? Give it to Keira. I wish she would quit acting and go work at McDonald's. Eat some fries so she might put on a milligram or two. I don't know why I loathe her, but I swear I want to put out my eyes with knitting needles and pour bleach in my ears every time I'm forced to watch her on screen.

And the actor I hate myself for loving?

Channing Tatum He is so hot and he's not all that talented, I used to not like him, but then I saw an interview and well, he had me at fake mountain lion and hiding in an outhouse.

If they made a movie about your life, who would play you?

Janeane Garafalo. She's short, has my twisted, cynical sense of humor and sarcasm to spare. Like moi.

If you could change one movie ending, what would it be and why?

I'd change Twilight. Bella discovers she's into girls, stakes Edward, then runs off with Buffy the Vampire Slayer thus saving us all the misery of the subsequent films.

11 More things about me you probably don't care to know, but I'll share anyway. :)

I love the color blue, any and all shades of blue.

Pink makes me look like a ham. 

My fave Japanese monster is Rodan

I can fill your power steering fluid should you need it.

I love toast with peanut butter and banana slices

The first time I cut my hair was 8th grade. I went pixie short the day before graduation unbeknownst to my mother. Her restraint is why I survived to adulthood.

I like to blow bubbles in the house. I taught my nephews to do that and can you tell I don't have kids? LOL

My first pet was a dog named Bandit and the first street I lived on was Avenue G. They say strippers name themselves after their first pets and their home streets. I would be the G Bandit. Perfect or what?

I eat Reese's peanut butter cups by eating the outer rim first, then peeling off the top chocolate.

The only wine I like is Moscato. Can't stand anything else, but I haven't had much in the way of wine, either.

I have a scar over my right brow where my brother hit me with a piece of firewood while we were playing The Incredible Hulk.

Like what you've read? Had enough about me? I hope you all have a terrific Monday. :)

Monday Morning And Good News

Since I am feeling inspired and happy at the moment, I'm sharing a pic of Mt. Rainier, one of my favorite places on the Earth.

What is happening my Imaginarians? Sorry I was absent for much of last week. I appreciate all the wonderful comments that you left and I am slowly, but surely making my way through them and onto all of your amazing blogs. It was a tough week as I had some doctor appointments to keep, but so far good news. My diabetes is back under control. My sugar has been holding at 112-118 and my A1C level is at 7.  Yay! And I am down 8 more pounds. Can I get a Hell Yeah?

And if my good news isn't enough, there's more from my good friends around the blogosphere. Vics Caswell over at Hairnets and Hopes has just launched her amazing new venture, Sketcher Girl Studios. Yay!!She does truly astounding artwork and will be designing book covers as well as other illustrative work like iTunes album covers, tattoo designs and children's book art. Julia Phillips Smith, author of the brilliant Saint Saguinus, is being interviewed over at Simply Infatuated. Author Rick R. Reed just received a stupendous review for his latest, Caregiver, over at Seductive Musings. I also want to say that my friend M Hufstader over at The Smoking Pen has an incredible clip of Joss Whedon and a little speech he gave to Equality Now about strong female characters in film. Like I said on M's blog, I am forever grateful that girls are growing up with this man as a cultural influence.

How was everyone's weekend? I got see my nephew play baseball. His team lost 8 to 2, but they played well considering only three of them have prior baseball experience. I also finally saw Battleship. I'll be posting a review shortly. What a rush that was.  Have a great Monday, my friends.
