How fun is this. It's great to learn all about you.
ReplyDeleteOh, I'm not very exciting but I'm having fun reading the posts of the people I tagged.
DeleteHaha this looks like a lot of fun!! Thanks for tagging me! I'll write my response tomorrow :) And I'm curious about Grosse Point Blank! Never heard about that one before!
ReplyDeleteOh, Natalie, you have to check out GPB it's so awesome!
DeleteJohn Cusack!!!! I will watch anything with him in it.
ReplyDeleteAnd thanks for tagging me! Hmmm now to think of questions and people to tag...
I know! He's awsome, I've watched everything with him in it.
DeleteHi Jenny, thanks for the tag. This is great fun! Right, I'm off to think up my answers.
ReplyDeleteI'm glad you aren't bothered...at least not TOO bothered, anyway.
DeleteYay! Thanks for the tag. I will try and do my post over the weekend. We have such different tastes in...everything! Let's just stick to the Gambit and soccer talk!
ReplyDeleteOh no! I thought we had so much in common. Oh well, the similarities had to end somewhere.
DeleteNo!!!! Just kidding. I think I will answer the questions for my blog tomorrow because I need to do something fun. I purposely rent and buy movies when I see John Cusack is in them, even if I don't know what to expect because he is awesome.
ReplyDeleteI do the same thing. I've seen a few weird ones too but John makes them "OK".
DeleteFun answers. Somehow I haven't read any of your favorite authors or books with your favorite characters (except for Sean Griswold's Head, which I really liked). I need to get on that. :) And the movies and actors. I feel very uncultured right about now.
ReplyDeleteBut I did just get a washer & dryer a couple weeks ago and I'm pretty sure all my wildest dreams came true. (At least, the one about not going to the laundry mat anymore.)
You need to read some of the books I mentioned! Don't worry about the movie actors, though. ;)
DeleteI want a washer and dryer soooo bad!
I did not know that Frankenstein was your favorite book. I read it in high school and loved it, but I think I may need to reread it now. Also, I <3 James McAvoy. :)
ReplyDeleteJames McAvoy is awesome in everything...except Atonement. ;)
DeleteI want to say something about everything you said, lol. But, I'll just say that I love Grosse Point Blank too. Corey and I crack up over that all the time! It's such a fantastic movie. We don't know many people who've seen it what with its rating and all. Yay for another fan!
ReplyDeleteI'm so glad you've seen and love it too! It's so funny but even with the rating, I don't think some people would get it.
DeleteI already know the answer to question #1 - getting tagged!!! Lol, only joking;)
ReplyDeleteThanks for tagging me. This sounds like a lot of fun :)
Yeah, sorry. ;) I tried to be creative with my questions.
DeleteI will watch anything with John Cusack in it. How can anyone not LOVE him:) I love it when you post anything about soccer! I know nothing of the sport, but I love the pics you post;) I did not remember that we started blogging at the same time...that makes my heart smile! Thanks for tagging me!
ReplyDeleteOh, that's right, we started blogging around the same time. Fun!
DeleteLoved Grosse Point Blank... so many quotables in that one! Good answers!
ReplyDeleteVery quotable. I love it!
DeleteDarn it! Your Damien Lewis link leads to Ethan Hawke. Love Lewis (but I prefer him when he's speaking with his real accent). Not a fan of Hawke, though. Love Grosse Point Blank and "Nessun Dorma" (which is actually new to me, since I found a video of Alfie Boe singing it in Matt whatsit's kitchen). Crazy about John Cusack. Spain sounds good. I'd go to Spain. Yep.
ReplyDeleteGasp! What sacrilege! I shall have to go fix my links.
DeleteAwesome fun answers. And I'm too tired to say more! :)
ReplyDeleteLOL! I feel your pain. ;)
DeleteFun! Madrid would be a wonderful travel destination...especially if you could go with John Cusack. Now THAT would be memorable... :)
ReplyDeleteI'm going to reveal how horribly old I am now, and say that I remember seeing Cusack in The Journey of Natty Gann and thinking he was OK...but the dog/wolf was cuter. ;) (Hey. I was young and foolish...)
I almost forgot he was in that one. I liked the Wolf better cause I was young too!
DeleteHa! I'm so going to do this! And you should go to Spain whenever you get the chance. It's so beautiful there you'll love it. I was there with my cousin who is like a HUGE FC Barcelona fan!
