Haiku Friday: Q&A Style
For Haiku Friday I bring you the answers to my Q&A!
If you have more pressing questions for me, must ask, and I will tack them on, though not in Haiku form! This was hard, though extremely amusing.
——————————
PG asked: Are you really a secret agent? And if you are do you really think it’s wise to announce it to the world?
If I told you, Pat
I fear I’d have to kill you
Ya know? It’s secret!
——————————
Kitty asked: Explain what a typical home school day is like and what is home school co-op?
We’re really relaxed
Some days the kids start early
Some days they start late
We are part of a
Odyssey of the Mind School
And we use k12
The curriculum
Has been very well received
By the kids and I
Co-op meets weekly
Over one hundred students
Moms teach and guide all
Done for fellowship
And student interactions
We’re so happy there
——————————
SW asked: Does your milkshake bring all the boys to the yard?
My milkshake is thick
Desired by boys and girls
You like to drink it!
——————————
Joyce asked: Have you blogged yet about how you and Michael met?
I have blogged it HERE
We’re one of those ‘net couples
On thirteen years, strong!
——————————
melissa said: I’m just curious about why and how you made the decision to homeschool. i guess, basically, i don’t understand the whole idea behind it so…please…i want YOU to explain it to me!
We felt it was best
For us and our way of life
Took it in our hands
It is important
And we feel we do better
Getting them ahead
The state of schooling
Isn’t what it used to be
Our personal choice
——————————
Ann said: Tell me how you chose your children’s names.
Our firstborn is named
Michael Franklin, like Papa
Tradition upheld
Our daughter is named
After a Mexican dish
At at then-fave dive
We had just found out
That we were expecting her
It was meant to be
Her middle name is
Piper! We thought it was right
It just seemed to fit
Our third born is named
After Benjamin Franklin
Historical name
His middle name, though
Is in honor of my dad
It’s my middle, too
David’s name was hard
Wasn’t named till he was born
After the “Rude Dude”
(“Rude Dude” is Michael’s life-long, best friend, David)
Alexander is
The middle name I wanted
A very strong name
——————————
Melissa asked:
1. Do you pick your nose?
Indeed I pick it
Sometimes I pick it too much
It’s addicting, yo!
2. If you had a cart full of maxipads, butt cream and granny panties would you check out with a cute checker or wait longer for an older woman checker with a longer line?
The cute checker wins
I’d have to see if he’d blush
Gotta make life fun!
3. Would you rather be a vampire or Frankenstein?
Me, a vampire,
Wouldn’t that be oh-so-cool?
Night time and blood drinks!
4. If you could change one thing about your life what would it be?
It would be my weight
I’m sick of “having” to lose
And working at it
5. Do your parents read your blog?
Not that I know of
And if they do, they hide it
The wouldn’t get it
——————————

Andie, you’re so sweet!
Mikey helped me name the blog
Click the link to see
Michael found the theme
I asked for the color black
The theme is so me!
——————————
OhMommy asked: If you could pick any place in the world to raise your family, where would that be and why?

The best place for us to be
Is near some mountains
Trees and mountain streams
Hiking trails and animals
It would be perfect

There’s plenty of time

You are not that far
We should meet in the middle
Lunch and a play-date!
——————————
Jenty asked: What place/town/country in the world would you not like to visit and why?
Can’t think of a place

Traveling’s a dream
What food have you never tasted, but you are dying to try?
This tropical fruit
I’ve never had but want to
It’s called Rambutan
——————————
Zoeyjane asked: What phrase would sum you up as completely as possible?
Can one phrase sum up
Who I am and what I be?
Crazy, Sexy, Cool!

Tara asked: What will your epitaph say on your tombstone? How do you want to be remembered?
I’d like my tombstone
To be a reflection of
That of which I am
——————————
Miss Sniz asked: What sex question would you be too embarrassed to answer?
I’m really open
No question is off limits
Sex is REALLY great!
——————————
Anglophile Football Fanatic asked:
1. Where exactly is Macedonia?
The country itself
Is located north of Greece
Former Yugoslav

Not a football fan
So I don’t care either way
But, there’s loyalty!

amanda asked:
Hypthetically:
If you were walking through the house and suddenly stubbed your big toe while simultaneously injuring your funny bone, what one word would you scream? ![]()
I know the answer
Undoubtedly, I can say
I’d scream, “GODDAMNIT!”
——————————
Qweenie asked: What are the origins of your 365 project??
One day on Flickr
I was parusing users
Saw 365!
Figured it be fun
To take pictures of myself
And post them daily!
——————————
Heather asked: What are the weirdest things.props, you have used during sex?
Nothing really weird
We have run of the mill toys
And something like this!
(The “this” is still waiting to be used, though)
——————————
Mr. Lady asked:
If you had to choose, and there were no other options, would you rather be forced to watch porn or Dora every day for the rest of your life?
The answer’s simple
Instead of Dora, shoot me
Just give me pornos!
What would you rather smell…an old diaper forgotten about in the corner for too long or the bottom of your trash can?
Can one be better?
I think I’d puke smelling both
I’d rather smell trash
What would you rather LICK? 100 eyeballs or 100 cell phones?
Cell phones are germ-y
Eye-balls might not be as bad
I’d puke doing both!
What do you want more?
~A lover that won’t drive you crazy.
~A new drug, one that does what it should.
~Really really really wanna zig-a-zig ha. (Because the Spice Girls rock my world!)
Someone to thrill me
Someone that knows the meaning
Ah, hit the highway!
I want a new drug
One that won’t make me feel bad
Not even too good!
If ya wannabe
Ya gotta get with my friends
Friendship never ends!
——————————
Jilly asked: If you had to chose a life with no internet/computer access EVER again in exchange to have Michael home with you EVERYDAY would you do it?
I don’t think I would
While I’d love to have him home
We’d kill each other
Spending time apart
Makes the heart grow fonder still
And adds some intrigue
Don’t take the wrong way
There’s no choice between the two
Michael takes the cake
(Just don’t take my internet away, ok!?)
——————————
Kitty asked: Another question-was it hard to find a pediatrician that agrees with non vaccinating?
Absolutely not
You have to be confident
And very well versed
Any doctor that
Doesn’t support you fully
Shouldn’t be your doc

Scared of revolver.
Thanks for visiting, it was nice to see you there. I’ll be back again.

Hi, Mishelle,
I LOVED the account of how you and Michael met. :) Thank you for telling me. (And I really enjoyed all your haikus!)
Reply
(Gets down on knees and bows before you)
I am not worthy. You kick ass for not only answering the questions, but doing it in haiku. AMAZING!
Reply
Mishi – OMG those questions some were hairy and scary – you as always are brilliant- that was hilarious and very entertaining. I learned so much about you too.
Reply
Bill or Rudy? STD or bad breath? Hmmm.
This was awesome!
Reply
Bravo! Bravo! Great job!
Wait for a mini van? Don’t you get free plane tix?
Reply
No free plane tix yet!
Unless I’m boxed as cargo
Wait for van, we must!
Reply
Are your fingers sore from doing the syllable counting thing? Mine are – just from thinking about doing all your answers Haiku style! Has the internet been around for 13 years??? yeeesh. I’m old. When I was in college, no one had email!
Reply
Can you believe it?
There was no world wide web then
It was PRIMITIVE!
Dude, we are so old
Everyday I can count gray
And, I say “old” things!
Reply
I LOVED this Mishelle – brilliant!
Reply
BY FAR the most brilliant concept and haikuing I have seen on the internets as of late. Love learning more about my Secret Agent Hottie.
Reply
You have mad haiku skills. Seriously. I am not worthy…
