Welcome to The Queen's Meme

7 Royal Questions on Tuesday

The Random Meme is well...random. Haphazard. No synchronicity. No rhyme or reason. I'm allowed once in awhile to be random. So I looked deep into the recesses of a tired pencil brain today and wrote down the first thing that popped into my head. That's a dangerous proposition.
I hope you enjoy this totally random meme.

Thank you my Queen... I shall make the most of it :)

Wild roses. They grow in abundance in my backyard.

The weather.

Today's Weather... rain and patchy fog.

Tomorrow's weather... drizzle and cloudy periods.

The rest of the summer...

Suck it up. 

Rain, cloud, fog, patchy fog, drizzle, showers, coastal fog, cloudy periods....build an ark.

Just shoot me... or the weather man. One of us has got to go.

Best Dieting Tip Ever

If it tastes good...

SPIT IT OUT!

The Twenty Third (Cupcake) Psalm

My doctor is my shepherd; I shall not weigh more.
He maketh me to lie down in green sweatpants;
He ordereth me to do situps. He specify-eth my goal.
He sendeth me down jogging trails of endless
length for my hearts sake.

Yea, though I stroll by the door of the bake shop, I will not enter;
my sweetrolls and crumbcake I secretly buy elsewhere.
I eatest my cupcakes in the presence of no one.
I feast on rich Twinkies and Ding - Dongs.
My cup's full of ice cream.

Surely huge hips and thunder thighs will haunt
me all the days of my life, and I will
live in a body of cellulite forever.

Ring Ring! Viiiibbbbbbbrrrrraaattte. Buzzzzzz Buzzzzz
It's Mimi on the line. Electronic gadgets have taken over our lives it seems. I can't go anywhere without seeing someone talking on a cellular phone or fixated on one of the newest toys. Doesn't it annoy you? On the other hand, how did we ever get along without them?
Call or text 1-800-Bloggingham. We'll chat!

#86 The Cell Phone Meme

1. How important is a cell phone in UR life?

For emergency calling - you never know when you might get stranded.
For business purposes... it's nice that you can be reached when not at the office or at home.
And for your children... it's important that they can reach you at all times.
Otherwise... it's just another annoying  gadget.

2. R U addicted to UR cell phone?

I have a blackberry. Most people don't even know I own one... that's how much use it gets.

3. R U a texter, an emailer, or a photo sender?

I prefer email... so I can respond in my own time. I would not like being held hostage to text happy people with nothing to say.

4. In the normal course of a day, about how many times do U touch UR cell phone?

Oh my...  ahem... we don't have that kind of relationship ;)

5. R U guilty of distracted driving?

Yes. When the road crews are out and the hot men at work are all hot and sweaty... oh... you mean cell phone distraction... let me try again.

R U guilty of distracted driving?

No. I am the person who will report you for driving with a cellphone in use. There are laws in this country... and with good reason. A Canadian study about cell phone car accidents showed that people were four times more likely to get into a car accident when they were talking on their cell phones. I suggest a blue tooth for those with cellphone addictions.

6. What is the 1 app never invented that needs to be made for UR cell phone?

The "SHUT UP" app. When you've exceeded normal talk and text time the following icon will appear on your phone. Yup. There should be an app for that!

7. What annoys U the most about cell phones these days?

When you are with someone and they are texting someone else while talking to you. 
It's rude. Just plain rude.

Inner Peace

If you can start the day without caffeine,

If you can always be cheerful, ignoring aches and pains,

If you can resist complaining and boring people with your troubles,

If you can eat the same food every day and be grateful for it,

If you can understand when your loved ones are too busy to give you any time,

If you can take criticism and blame without resentment,

If you can conquer tension without medical help,

If you can relax without alcohol,

If you can sleep without the aid of drugs,

Then You Are Probably
