I have never seen Kill Bill.
I didn’t see Dirty Dancing or Grease till I was about 16.
I bunked off the last half hour of school one day to get a book signed by the first winner of Big Brother.
Often I don’t brush my hair.
When I was about ten, I saved up and bought The Smurfs Go Pop album. My favourite song on it was Mr Blobby and The Smurfs, in which Mr Blobby occasionally goes “BLOBBY!” That is his only contribution to the song.
I always used to make up little plans about running away (I had probably seen a film which made it look really fun and easy.)
I have a strange fondness for wildebeest. I just think they’re quite grand.
I loved loved LOVED the boy from Free Willy. I had a poster of him on my wall, which I used to snog.
When I was little, I named all my teddy bears and cuddly toys and gave them personalities and had a little sitcom-esque imaginary existence with them at bedtime.
It was during these night time role plays with my toys that I perfected my faux American accent.
That’s right, I have a faux American accent that I sometimes put on for fun. I think it’s ace. I can’t speak for anyone else.
I also went through a phase when I was about 17 where I spoke in an Irish accent.
I have lumpy knees.
Sometimes I find the news boring, although I know I should be fascinated and be all aware and things, but sometimes they go on and on, and I realise I’m not actually that interested. Ssshhhh, don’t tell anyone.
I don’t like Glee. I once watched an episode. It was not the best use of my time.
I also don’t like mustard.
I don’t think dogs are cute. Even small fluffy ones. They’re just dogs.
I love lists.

The Craig!

Who’s Craig? Am I being thick? Is it a Liverpudlian thing?

Erm, the first winner of Big Brother!

Omygoodness, I totally forgot that was his name! He was signing books at the big WHSmiths on Bold Street.

You don’t love Glee? *Faints*. Best.Show.Ever.

Yeh. Tough times in our friendship. I did only watch it the once so maybe I’m dismissing it too hastily? I’m open to persuasion.

Ok, it is all about season 3. That was my fav, even though the critics didn’t love it. Try it again. I recommend wine & popcorn as viewing accessories.

Laura, I agree with so much on this list! I’ve never seen Kill Bill, and since my hair is super curly, I never brush it; just scrunch it with some defrizzing gel before heading out the door. 😉 I would *love* to hear your American accent, and I’ve seen only one episode of Glee (the one with John Stamos, sigh.)

My American accent is phenomenal…. Kind of. I’m glad we agree on the hair thing. Brushing it is the worst thing for it if it’s curly. It just goes afro-ey. How’s things with the Hurricane? Are you doing ok?

Hanging in there. Power should be restored today or tomorrow–keeping my fingers crossed.

Great addendum to your “about” page. You should put a link of this blog post to it.
Posted by lazylauramaisey on November 1, 2012 at 14:56
Good suggestion. I’ll go do that in a mo.

Kill Bill 1 is awesome, the sequel not so great.
Posted by lazylauramaisey on November 1, 2012 at 14:57
I’ll remember to just watch the first one then.

I like dogs but I prefer cats: we all have our favourite pet!
Posted by lazylauramaisey on November 1, 2012 at 15:01
I like things which are self sufficient. A fat pigeon that I occasionally feed with bread in the garden is the closest thing to a pet that I have!

Love it! The insight into your life, the simplicity and everything else about it.
You’r a blogger after my own heart 😉

Thanks so much. That’s such a compliment. I’m glad you like it.

I love lists. I love filling out forms. i have never seen Kill Bill and I didn’t see Grease till i was in college in the 80s. Glee is stoopid.
Good list!
Posted by lazylauramaisey on November 1, 2012 at 15:18
Your list is also pretty good, although I cant believe you love filling out forms. What is wrong with you?
