US Labor Day Meme

Blame technorati for this one. If it hadn’t popped up in the ‘linking to you’ section I would never have known about it. But it did pop up, and I do know about it, and I rarely back down from a challenge…

Jack tagged me.

  1. Are you craving anything and if so, what?
    Yoghurt covered pretzels. That’s the one draw back with no longer dating the CC - I no longer have a supplier. If anyone’s feeling generous enough can you hook me up? *flutters eyelashes* (I’m pretty certain Sugar Mountain does them).
  2. What is the weather outside, and do you wish it would change?
    Changeable - sunny one minute, gloomy/rainy the next. No, I don’t wish it would change. I like the weather in all it’s forms. I may grumble about it (I’m British so moaning about the weather is kind of compulsory) but I still like it. You never know what’s going to happen next :D
  3. What two web sites do you think you will go to next after you are finished here?
    I think I will actually go read a book. I’ve done most of my browsing for the day, my wrist is killing me, and Vienna will tell me of anything interesting through RSS.
  4. Do you wish you were somewhere else and if so, where?
    I’m actually quite attached to where I am now. Though I’d love to live in New Zealand (if we’re talking long term). A holiday in Scotland would be nice (Edinburgh and Stirlingshire). Or just a week or so to kick back and relax back in Somerset.
  5. Do you wish you were someone else, and if so, who?
    Hell! I have a hard enough time being me! I can honestly say I don’t want to be anybody else. There are bits of me I wouldn’t mind changing slightly, but I still want to be me. And dating Johnny Depp, but that wasn’t the question you asked, was it? ;)

I tag - whoever wants to do this. And Tammie, Jay and Rich because I’m curious…

[...] I’ve had a few thoughts and ideas percolating for blog posts, but I’ve not written them up just yet (some I’ve written up, but I’m letting them percolate a bit more before I click that big ol’ Post button). So, here’s a meme that I saw at Bright Meadow. I’m American, it’s Labor Day here, and the meme is ‘U.S. Labor Day Meme.’ So, it’s fitting, I guess. [...]

Funny you should mention New Zealand. There’s a distinct possibility I’m moving there next year.

[...] Cas tagged me with a meme. I hate memes, and they usually annoy the shit out of me. I have, in fact, vowed never to participate in one. I had, however, never been “tagged” before when I made that vow. It’s nice. Like your first erection. So, in a blaze of hypocrisy, here goes my first meme. Are you craving anything and if so, what? [...]

[...] Just as I was going to shut down jump4jay.com for a little while because I feel as though I have very little to say about anything these days, and I want to start concentrating more on writing for Metroblogging Montreal, it seems as though I’ve been tagged and given a reason to start typing by Cas. Surprise surprise =P! As I was reading her post and came to realize what it was all about, I got the gut feeling that I’d be next. My gut is rarely wrong. [...]

New Zealand - you lucky so and so. I don’t know why, but in the last year or so I’ve just really wanted to move to New Zealand (and no, it’s not because I saw it in LotR :P )

Y’all would be welcome down here, I am sure!

Oooh, fancy putting in a good word for me with immigration? ;)
I was curious and went looking through the NZ government’s site, looking at the kind of people they want in the country. Sadly computing-archaeologists who want to work in publishing aren’t wanted. If I was a sheep or pig farmer, I’d be fine. Alas, I’m neither of those things. Knew I studied the wrong stuff at university! :D

Speaking very seriously, I probably could write a reference. An English friend of mine came as a writer and journalist: could that be something you could look at?
