I'm Weak

Last One Speaks can't resist a good meme, but she doesn't like to play alone and challenged us "Detroit Bloggers" to play along. I'm weak and can't resist a challenge, so here's my contribution:

Four crying out loud

Four jobs you've had in your life: Teacher, customer service associate for major retailer, dispatcher for towing service, medical transcriptionist.

Four movies you could [and do] watch over and over: I hardly ever watch a movie over and over again, but my favorite movies include Shawshank Redemption, City of Angels, Ghost and the movie version of Annie.

Four places you've lived: Detroit, MI, Westland, MI, Baldwin, PA, Grand Blanc, MI.

Four fiction books you can't live without: To Kill A Mockingbird - Lee, A Farewell To Arms - Hemingway, The Grapes Of Wrath - Steinbeck, and any book in the Kent Family Chronicles (The Bastard, The Seekers, The Lawless, The Americans, etc.) by John Jakes.

Four non-fiction books you consider essential: Bible, The AAMT Book of Style for Medical Transcription, Prescription for Nutritional Healing, Sibley's Guide to Birds.

Four TV shows you love to watch: Law and Order, CSI, Jeopardy, Boston Legal.

Four places you've been on vacation: Northern Ireland, Italy (from the northern alps down to Rome - favorite city is Florence), Presque Isle in northern Pennsylvania, and Niagara Falls.

Four websites you visit daily: Think Progress, Working Life, Tom Paine, Common Dreams

Four of your favorite foods: Pizza, chocolate, chicken, and salads.

Four places you'd rather be: Lying on the couch with a good book, Red Wings hockey game, fishing, driving through the countryside.

Four albums you can't live without: Anything by John Mellencamp, Bob Seeger, Gordon Lightfoot or the Beatles.

One question, LOS. You mentioned you were a bartender and a law office manager under previous jobs you've had. Is bartending a prerequisite for working with lawyers? (Sorry, Bostonian Exile...I just couldn't resist!)

To everyone reading this, come on, play along. It will be fun! Just post your answers in the comment section or on your blog (be sure to link here so I can find your response).
