Thirteen Perplexing Things about SCONE- I've been eating handfuls M&Ms every day for far too long.
- I've also been losing weight for the past several weeks.
- I (don't really) attribute this to the Diet A&W Root Beer I drink with the M&Ms.
- The same day I realized that the next book in Orson Scott Card's "Women of Genesis" series would have to be about Rachel and Leah, I found the book in our local library.
- I cried when I finished it because it was so good, and it was over.
- I do this with all of his books.
- I hate reading his stuff because he's a brilliant writer (unspoken text: and I'm not).
- I'll keep doing this until I die. I'm like the Salieri of the writing world. (Talk about giving yourself airs.)
- I was married before, but usually I don't remember that part of my life.
- I sometimes forget that I had another child, too. But not as often [as I forget #9].
- My mother told me ages ago that I shouldn't have children because I don't like them.
- I rolled my eyes the way teenagers do and said, "Only other people's children!"
- Turns out I was right-- mostly. I do like other people's kids if they're related to me.

I prefer the 4 legged furry kind of child! I have 7--5 cats and 2 Great Danes! My TT is up!
I love Orson Scott Card too. His writing really speaks to me and I fall into the stories so deeply.
I wish I could lose weight off of M&Ms. Well, maybe off of Krispy Kremes.
ok, now I want m&ms. Thanks a lot. ;)
M&Ms everyday and you're still losing weight? Do tell!
I don't understand #10..
okay, so the pile of m&ms I've eaten this morning are going to help me lose weight?
Chana: You're right, I don't have pets because they would be redundant.
Denise: Sorry about the confusion. Edited for clarity.
Everybody: I don't recommend chowing down on chocolate as a way to lose weight, but it doesn't seem to be hurting at this point. And all those wasted years I was a hard-core dieter...
Woohoo! I've got the Linky thing going on! Thanks to those of you who bore with me up to now.
I'm laughing about the M & M's and Diet A & W. (you're having a lot of letters!!)
Thanks for the T13 visit!
I'm so loving your diet. Are you going to write a book about it? ;)
My TT is up!
That really is random and different things about yourself :-)
We all have our ways to loose weight. Mine was 2 long journeys to 3 countrys and getting sick *lol*
I tell my teen daughter not to have kids because she doesn't like them. At this point, she is planning to have only ONE. LONG LONG LONG after college. :)
Great list!
My TT is up.
I love M&M's! My TT is up.
I hope you'll make an exception for my kid. ;)
Kory: You're my kids' adopted aunt, so that makes your imminent baby girl (and don't think I'm not jealous!) my adopted niece, right? No problem there. :)
You ARE very perplexing! I have three boys but have to work very hard at motherhood. It does NOT come naturally to me, and I knew I was like that when I was 12.
Thank you for stopping by my site! ;)
