How Do You Pronounce “Meme,” Anyway?

I stole this one from Busy Mom, though I’ve seen it around before.

Tell 9 truths and one lie about yourself.  Which is kind of hard if I exclude My 100 Things. 

1.  I was born several days late but weighed less than 5 pounds.

2.  HS and I rarely use up our combined cell phone minutes each month.

3.  The only time I’ve had a broken bone is when I fell over a guitar case at church and broke my thumb.

4.  I once had a four-day hangover.

5.  German shepherds make me break out in a cold sweat.

6.  I think Jane Austen is one of the funniest writers ever.

7.  I have never seen even a minute of a single “Survivor” episode.

8.  When I bought my first minivan, I didn’t know how an automatic transmission worked.

9.  I bet the winner in the Kentucky Derby this year.

10.  Both of the goldfish from this post are still alive and swimming.

    Hmmmmm, my first instinct is #4 as well. But then it could be #6. I’m a Jane Austen fan, but I’m not sure funny is a word to describe her books….

    I’m going to be contrary and say you’ve seen some survivor. Even if it’s only to justify never watching it again.

    As for Meme, I always say it like may-may but suspect it’s all about me-me!

    For the record, no one has guessed correctly yet. Meaning I did, indeed, have a four-day hangover. And that I no longer drink rum.

    Dang! I was going to say no. 4.

    OK, I’ll say no. 5. You don’t strike me as someone who’s afraid of German Shepherds.
