Avoiding the Meme

I’ve been tagged a few times for the 4 things meme but not done it because hey! I’m the one that interviews people, not the other way around, right? And, isn’t it dead already?

But now, in true leahpeah fashion, here is my attempt to participate.

4 jobs I never want to have:

gas station tiolet cleaner
cloth diaper washer
contruction worker that has to hold the slow/stop sign
a contestant on american idol

4 movies with Drew Barrymore:

Never Been Kissed
Ever After
The Wedding Singer
Mad Love

4 people I can’t stop listening to:

Feist
Imogen Heap
Coco Rosie
Seu Jeorge

4 dishes I’ve made that have created illness:

some casserole thing with beef and fruit
an apple pie made with salt instead of sugar
undercooked thanksgiving turkey
egg salad sandwiches

4 sites I visit every single freakin’ day:

kottke
metafilter
waxy
gofugyourself

4 reasons to get out of bed in the morning/afternoon (whatever):

my kids
flowers
television
work

4 things I wish I never would have said:

‘Yes. I absolutely know that is true.’
‘If that isn’t reason enough, do it for me.’
‘When is your baby due?’
‘Just get that back to me whenever.’

4 things I tell myself every day/night:

Do the hard thing first.
I’m good enough, I’m smart enough, and doggone it, people like me.
I’m doing a great job.
Walk away from the cake/donut/french fries/bread/carb

4 things my kids do that make me laugh:

Devon: tells me when he’s going to use the toilet. He’s 17.
Alexandra: looks at herself in the visor mirror and makes pig faces
Tyler: grabs my leg when I go up the stairs
Anthony: asks me where the cheese went. (I don’t know)
