Atashi meme sheep desu. I've been meaning to put this up, and I keep forgetting!

Just sent about a dozen similar e-mails off to Reading Centers all across the country, asking them what they're up to! Maybe one or two will even respond! I'm not too hopeful, as it IS summer, but this would look good in my research.


Memosity wherin I get you to talk about yourself!

Reply to this meme, and I'll pick one of your LJ interests. You tell me a whole bunch of stuff about it, and we all learn a bit more.
And it's not part of the meme, but I like talking about myself so you can also pick one of my interests and I shall bore you to tears babbling about it!

Ooo. *makes shiny book eyes*

Double the athos love! Never a bad thing.

Thank you! That might actually turn out to a had-to-be-there thing, but I’ll try to tell it anyway. My friend Jes used to call me the nights that her family’s American Idol addiction forced her out of her house onto her porch. And some weeks we’d run out of conversation topics because one or both of us was half asleep; so, we’d play stupid games. In this case it was I spy.

Jes: I spy a...wait no I don’t. I spy...what is that.
Sarah: I’m sure I’ll be of great help here. What does it look like?
Jes: A windmill.
Sarah: I—
Jes: No, no it isn’t. It’s a dog.
Sarah: How did you get those two mixed up?
Jes: I have bad eyesight and wait. It’s not a dog. (pause) I think it’s a man.
Sarah: A man? Just...standing there?
Jes: Yeah.
Sarah: Well, that’s a little creepy.
Jes: Yeah, kind of. I’m still not sure if it is though. I’m going to check.
Sarah: You’re going to check if what you’re seeing is, in fact, a crazy creepy killer man just standing there? WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU?

But I was yelling at air, because she’d put the phone down to go check it out. She came back, after a very few long seconds and said:

Yeah. It’s a mailbox.
