Tagged…

Okay, Michelle Styles tagged me on this one:

Three screen names that you’ve had: Michelle Willingham, mrsleonard, and mwilling

Three things you like about yourself: I work very hard, especially on a deadline (hint, hint); I’m a good listener; and I’ve never been convicted of a felony. :goodvibes:

Three things you don’t like about yourself: My inability to control myself around salt water taffy :hungry:, my impulsive nature, and my complete lack of artistic creativity (I had a pumpkin pattern, people! I could never have cut those out without the pattern).

Three parts of your heritage: Umm…I’m a little confused by this question, but I’m 100% British in origin. There’s actually a town of Willingham where my ancestors originated. My husband is 100% Irish, so does that make me Irish-in-law? :banana:

Three things that scare you: phone calls from editors (but I sure do want one!); parent phone calls that involve telling me their life story and how they were former gang members and took part in a ritual shooting of themselves in the head (yes, I really DID have a parent who told me this…I was a bit reluctant to ask her to sign her son’s homework agenda nightly); and mice.

Three of your everyday essentials: Cafe Francais (General Foods International Coffee) :coffee2:, yogurt as part of my lunch, and hugs/kisses from my children. :love:

Three things you are wearing right now: Umm…pajamas? :oops:

Three of your favorite songs: Bring me to Life by Evanescence, I’m Gonna Be (500 miles) by the Proclaimers, and Die Another Day by Madonna. :rocker:

Three things you want in a relationship: Love, a sense of team spirit, and a man who cleans my house. :banana:

Two truths and a lie: Truth: I have no self-control when it comes to chocolate caramels. Truth: I have completed 3 full-length romance novels and 4 full-length children’s novels. Lie: I wear a size 2.

Three things you can’t live without: oxygen, food, and water. (Well, really!) :dance:

Three places you want to go on vacation: Ireland, Scotland, and Australia.

Three things you just can’t do: Play football, basketball or any other team sport. I fall on my face. Any sport involving catching, throwing, or hitting a ball does not work for me.

Three kids names: Andrew, Elizabeth, James

Three things you want to do before you die: Go on an African safari, publish a book (or 100), and earn a million dollars.

Three celeb crushes: Mel Gibson in Braveheart, Daniel Day-Lewis in Last of the Mohicans, and Harrison Ford (Indiana Jones).

Three of your favorite musicians: Sting, Madonna, and really any cheesy 80’s band. I’m a sucker for 80’s music.

Three physical things about the opposite sex that appeals to you: self-confidence, okay a nice muscular body, and an intelligent mind. Though, if he cleans my house, the intelligent mind isn’t really necessary. :rotfl:

Three of your favorite hobbies: writing, cooking, and reading.

Three things you really want to do badly right now: publish my first book, spend a day doing nothing but reading, and hire someone to clean my house.

Three careers you’re considering/you’ve considered: editor, full-time author, stay-at-home mom.

Three ways that you are stereotypically a boy: I’m a go-getter, I like independence/autonomy, and I don’t put up with idiocy from people “just because we’ve always done it this way.”

Three ways that you are stereotypically a girl: I love gorgeous dresses, sparkly jewelry, and eating at the most expensive restaurant in town (to my husband’s dismay).

Three people that I would like to see post this meme: Tori, Katie, and Olga. :)
