Tuesday Twofer

Right. So Mike has come up with this as a twofer this week. Which I think I may actually dislike more than the one that he hated so much last week. But, whatever I am low on inspiration so, I will answer. Sort of. Even though I may have actually preferred to write about the Superbowl which I didn't even see.

Who is your hero?

Hero? I've sort of grown out of having heros. When I was a kid? Wonder Woman was fantastic. That woman could fly around in an invisible jet! Who wouldn't want to be able to do that? Or...um...

Really, I'm not sure I ever had heros. When I was a kid we didn't play games that involved bad guys and good guys. G.I. Joe was hardly even thought of. Which could be because I'm a girl.

However, I'm also the oldest. Therefore, when we played games, we played the games I wanted to play. I am the oldest, I was also the bossiest. So, when we got together and played games, we played school. Yes, I'm serious, stop laughing at me. I'd sit the kids down, give them some crayons, rip a picture out of a colouring book (or give them each one of their own) and tell them to colour. And then, when they were done I would grade them on their homework.

Of course, that game didn't last forever. But, by the time we got sick of that, we were playing other things. Becky got a huge Barbie house thing, so we'd play Barbies at her house. The boys? Who knows what they did, maybe they played G.I. Joe now that they were released from my tyrannical clutches.


Who is your enemy?

Again, I'm not sure I have an enemy. There are people I don't like. But, I wouldn't say that they are enemies.

Well, there was this one girl, who spent a whole lot of time thinking only of herself. And one day I decided enough was enough, and I told her off. And apparently, I managed to do it in such a way that I came out looking like I was being unreasonable (yes, I know this is shocking. Me....unreasonable?!?). And so, everyone decided that they'd take this girls word on the matter in question over mine. That sort of pissed me off. And I still can't think of her without becoming extremely angry with her.

But I wouldn't really call her an enemy.
