A little birdie told me that many of you are visiting here because someone sent you. That Anita, she's swell, huh?
This same little birdie also told me something that made me laugh! You see, Anita and I are planning to get together for lunch in a couple of weeks. We worked at the same company for some years & didn't actually know each other. Of course, I know who she is, since she's a celebrity of sorts, writing for our newspaper and all. Any way, I guess Anita isn't completely sure she'd recognize me if she tripped over me! Imagine the embarrassment of showing up for lunch, and not being sure who you're meeting. Any way, we all know she's a delightful woman & wouldn't want her to be embarrassed that way, right? So, I got to thinking... why don't you Friends of Fighting Inertia and I play a little game. I will give you a few clues, show you some pictures, and you can try to identify me. Then, when Anita comes back you can perhaps drop a clue or two about my appearance, to save her from embarrassment. After all, what are friends for, right?
OK, so here we go. First, your clues:
I love the water, and really enjoy swimming. I've always wished I could fly, but unfortunately I can't. I don't eat much pork, but do like some crunchy bacon now and then. And I'm a 39-year old female.
That's it. That's all your getting. Nothing about hair color, eye color, height, weight. Come on, I can't just give it away!
I may or may not be wearing a disguise in the photo.
There you have it. Now for your choices. Have a look at the photos and talk amongst yourselves.
Choice 1:
Choice 2:
Choice 3:
Choice 4:
ps - there's a country song "I ain't never had too much fun".... well, I have to say this comes darn close! If I don't come back soon, you'll know my husband has called the men in white suits to take me away!








It's close between number 1 and 3. Let me listen to Josh Groban *You Lift Me Up* for the 975th time and perhaps by the end I'll know. :)

I'm thinking choice 1. And you look SO familiar! I wonder if we've met before?

Wow - - I had no idea that you had yellow feathers! At least I'll be able to recognize you now when we meet for lunch.
I'll bring along some breadcrumbs since you don't look like the type who'll really enjoy Thai.

I'm guessing number 1... I'm sure Anita will have *no* problems picking you out in a crowd since you look soooo good in yellow!

You're all so quick!! This wasn't the stumper I'd hoped for... oh well, now that I know I'm dealing with some extra smart people, I'll have to make my next game a little more challenging!
ps - sure, I love breadcrumbs, Anita! Especially if they're chocolate-covered.

Just found your blog via Anita. Great job! Love it. I will be back.

Dang, I could've sworn you were Number 4. I'm so bad at these games, it's humiliating.

See? I'm tricky that way... throwing in a decoy!

I thought it was #4, too. I figured you'd pick that lovely shade of blue.
