Crazy Sam’s Saturday 9: Same Old Lang Syne
1) This week's song is the tale of an accidental holiday encounter between former lovers. (Hear it here.) They sit in her car and spend hours catching up, then she gives him a chaste kiss and they never see one another again. Is there a past love who still has a special spot in your heart, despite the years or the miles since your relationship?
Yes, but she is on the other coast and married.
2) This week's song includes a play on the traditional Scottish song, "Auld Lang Syne." Have you ever visited Scotland?
Nope, but would like to some time.
3) Mother Winters has long told Sam that if she has a glass of water for every glass of champagne she drinks on New Year's Eve, she'll feel better on New Year's Day. Do you have a favorite hangover prevention tip or cure?
Mine is sure fired, guaranteed to prevent a hangover… I don’t drink more than one drink.
4) Do you like champagne?
Na, too sweet.
6) This year at midnight, Crazy Sam will kiss the nose of her puppy, Chico. Will you be kissing anyone when the clock strikes 12?
Nope, I’ll probably be asleep. Last year up at the cottage with the family I don’t think anyone made it to midnight.
6) The Fifty Shades of Grey trilogy was the runaway publishing phenomenon of 2012. It was so successful that the publisher, Random House, was able to give its employees massive bonuses this year. Have you read it?
I never read it, I usually only read something if it is set a thousand years in the future.
7) Year-end is a time for newspapers, magazines and websites to run lists. According to Askmen.com, Jennifer Lawrence of The Hunger Games is the at the of the year's "Most Desirable Woman" list. People magazine has declared Channing Tatum "The Sexiest Man Alive -- 2012." Do either of these two set your pulse racing? If not, who is your celebrity crush?
I don’t even know who they are and I don’t think I watched anything with them in it. I have a crush on Lauren Graham
8) Pasadena, California, is known for hosting the traditional Rose Parade. It begins at 8:00 AM on January 1, so the people who watch it live must be there very early. Does the thought of getting up and dressed to sit in the California sun, bright and early on New Year's morning appeal, to you?
Nope, I don’t even watch it on TV or go to local parades.
9) Sometimes aches and pains that aren't serious can still really hurt. For example, Sam just dropped a can of tomato paste on her foot and the little red mark it left is making her crazy! Are you suffering through a bump or bruise or cut right now?
Not right now (Knock on wood).

Happy New Years!
I did not know Lauren Graham, had to look her up with your link. Cute gal, but I still need someone within my age group and not my kids or grand kids. I hope you have a great 2013.
ReplyDeleteI only like the major parades: Macy's Thanksgiving or the Rose Bowl. Our local parades are mostly tractors. And local beauty queens. Woo.
ReplyDeleteIsn't it crazy that so many of us seem to "get it" about just limiting yourself to NOT get a hangover?
ReplyDeleteThere sure is a surplus of stupid in the world, no?
I love Lauren Graham too :)
ReplyDeleteHave a great New Year!
