Hodgepodge

It's Hodgepodge time again. Head on over to Joyce's blog to see other people's answers.


1. ASAP typically stands for 'as soon as possible'. What else could it stand for in your life right now? 

2. Are you the last person to speak up in a group or the first to have an idea? Why do you suppose that is? Is it a good thing or no? Usually no, I don't like to draw attention to myself. Of course, it would also depend on the size of the group, if it's small and I knew most of the people, maybe
3. What do you remember best about being 12? Not much, I remember more about being 10 and 11. I don't feel much happened that I remember.

4. January 18th is National Winnie the Pooh Day. Which character do you relate to the most, and why? If you're stumped go here for inspiration. I like Pooh, how could you not like a teddy bear. I suppose I'd relate to Eeyore though, I'm not always bright and sunshiney, lately I've felt more grumpy and bummed out.

5. What's an app you use that helps simplify or make life easier for you in some way? Honestly, I don't use a lot of apps. I like my notes app, I don't forget to buy as many things at the store as I used to.

6. San Francisco (CA), San Diego (CA), San Juan (PR) San Antonio (TX) Sanibel (FL)...you have an all expenses paid long weekend to one of these destinations. Which one do you choose and why? Let's go with a California one, say San Francisco, cause they have Alcatraz prison, that would be cool to go to. I've never been to the west coast of the US. I think it would be cool to explore.
7. Share with us a song that makes you feel nostalgic? For what?

This popped up on my mP3 player when we were in Hawaii in 2010, so everytime it comes on now, I'm taken back to Hawaii.
8.  Insert your own random thought here.
I've been having a heck of a last few days. We had an ice storm yesterday where there was a nice coating of ice all over everything. Quite a few places closed for the day and people mostly didn't go out, sadly the library does not close, so getting to work was fun. I walk to work, and that feeling of your feet sliding out from under you is just not fun. Today, I gave myself extra time to make it to the bus stop for my other job. When I came home, most of it was just wet. I hope by the time I leave for work tomorrow morning, it's not slippery. Tomorrow afternoon and the rest of the week it's supposed to be in the 40's, so I'm looking forward to that.
Yesterday, I sat down to print off my tax stuff and my printer decided it wasn't going to print black ink anymore. I thought it had just run out, so I replaced my cartridge and it still didn't work. No matter what I did, it wouldn't print. So, I had to do it before I was officially at work.
Today, my computer decided it wasn't going to play YouTube videos, and then when I restarted it, it decided not to play sound (it does that sometimes,) I haven't figured out why, I just have to keep restarting it until it decides to work.
I'm ready for warmer weather and to go shopping. I my first day off on Sunday since the 4th, I'm ready for it.

Technology is a great helper, except when it's being a painfully finicky! I'm not very patient when my tools act up! Have a great week.
Cheers!

Hello from the Hodgepodge - and from sunny California! Though we are about to get 5 days of thunderstorms - but I can't complain when the rest of the country is all snowed in! Be safe and keep warm! Love that song from Tom Petty.
