The Random Dozen is hosted by a woman named Linda Crow. This meme has a great following. As memes go, this one is a bit of a left turn. But since Linda has not sued us to stop crashing her meme, we are here again. I’m sure she’s ecstatic. Meme questions are in bold.

The Random Dozen: Kissing Chickens and Other Weirdness

1. How do you feel about the marshmallow Easter Peeps? They will one day rise up from their yellow nothingness and conquer the world as we know it.

2. Chickens are notoriously nervous creatures. When you are nervous, what is the best way to calm down? You must be my waitress. Smirnoff martini, shaken not stirred.

3. People say, “April showers bring May flowers.” Do you enjoy Spring rains? Who the hell enjoys the rain besides John Lennon?

4. When I was randomly flipping through TV channels this week, I saw a show in which tattoo parlor employees received tattoos of a co-worker’s face on their bodies. I can’t imagine having a portrait of a colleague tattooed on me. But if someone forced you to receive a portrait tattoo (face only) of anyone, who would it be? Why? John Lennon. Wow, twice. Imagine there’s no Heaven. It’s easy if you try. No hell below us, above us only sky. Imagine all the people living for today.

5. Would you rather have a tattoo (any kind) or a nose ring? I never thought I’d think of getting a tat. But if those are the only choices. Tattoo away.

6. Do you have any special plans for Easter? God, I hope not. We really don’t make a deal out Easter in my family. But occasionally, there are plans. Right now, I’m just booked on Easter Eve.

7. Cadbury Eggs or Reese Eggs? Go suck an egg. Either kind.

8. What was the last thing/person you took a picture of? We took our 2010 WTIT Staff picture a few weeks ago for the WTIT Photo Blog. I used a timer.

9. What book are you reading now, or what was the last one? I’m reading Threesomes and Other Major Religious Experiences by Grappa Mifriendtoo.

10. What do you think is the most difficult task when it comes to Spring cleaning? Paying my hot housekeeper to actually do it.

11. How many pairs of flip-flops do you own? Who the fuck cares? Oops. I’m trying to be better. So, no I own no flippin’ flip-flops. Thanks for asking.

12. Which color makes you happiest? Blue. As in “What a great blue job!” Spelling is not my strength. I’m close to spelling it right, right?
