Meme: 5 things

a meme n (mëm): is an idea that is shared and passed from blog to blog, like a question posted in one blog and answered in many other blogs.

10 Years Ago: September, 18 years old - starting my first of 1½ years at the University of Wisconsin-Whitewater. Excited, nervous, and hopeful, which quickly turned to lonely, bored, and depressed.

5 Years Ago: September, 2001. Living in Iceland. We had just moved from our 2nd floor apartment to a 1st floor apartment right on a playground. I took this picture in September, 2001:

The Siglets, 2 years, 4 months and 6 months old

It was just after 9/11/01, and we were still very much on edge. Security was very tight on the base and it would take a very long time for B to get home from work. I had to stand extra duty at my job checking ID cards in my building.

1 Year Ago: September 15, 2004. I had found out yesterday that I was going to be going on the USS Abraham Lincoln for a 4 month deployment. I was nervous and excited at the same time.

Yesterday: 3:45 yesterday I was sleeping on Niki’s couch, trying to shake the migraine after having dropped off mom at the airport.

5 Snacks I Enjoy: (usually - as I posted, my appetite is all but gone!) Peanut M&Ms, mint chocolate chip ice cream, Gardettos, Apples & Peanut butter, and homemade cookies.

5 Songs I Know All The Words To: Tom’s Diner by Suzanne Vega; Run Around by Blues Traveler; Sleep to Dream by Fiona Apple; It’s Oh So Quiet by Bjork; Money by Pink Floyd

5 Things I Would Do With $100 Million: Buy a house in Iceland; do a LOT of traveling; buy every piece of photographic equipment I want; buy a yacht (well, *I* wouldn’t, but since the money would be ours, I’m sure B would want to buy a yacht!); put a lot into savings so we can build our dream home someday when we settle down.

5 Places I Would Run Away To: NYC (no one would find me! Ha ha!); London; Santa Cruz; the Outer Banks; some warm island

5 Things I Would Never Wear:

1. Are you serious?

2. The world should thank me for never wearing this

3. Ouch

4. Don't worry, I wouldn't wear the lipstick, either

5. I hope you don't wear either of these, either.
