Get to Know You #19

Hello, and happy timezones, Kind Friends! I have greatly enjoyed your responses to my Get to Know You posts!

Shall we get right to it?

Here is round 19:

  1. If you could change the color of your eyes to anything that doesn’t look natural at all, which color would you choose?
  2. Is a hotdog a sandwich? 
  3. What is a song that is totally unsuitable to propose to a person with?
  4. What kind of secret society would you start?
  5. What do you look forward to every day?

Here are my answers:

  1. Let’s see… I think I would choose for them to be purple.
  2. Um…. I would say it’s similar to a sandwich.
  3. “I Still Haven’t Found What I’m Looking For” by U2.
  4. One where our objective is to secretly do nice things for people. I think it would be fun!
  5. I look forward to my daughter Katy-Lady’s phone call every day. Sometimes she calls me more than once and sometimes, I call her. Either way, I call that a very good day.

And now, it’s your turn! If you don’t want to participate, no problem!

I’m just glad you’re here. A hello would be fantastic, though! Of course, lurkers are always heartily welcome. xo

Thank you so much for reading, liking, lurking, and commenting! You are important!

  1. 1) I have the same eyes as my late Mother and would not change the colour. am lucky that I already have colour changer eyes. They are hazel, but change from hazel through several shades of green depending on the lighting and my mood. 2) If you can call a submarine a sandwich, a hotdog is a sandwich. 3) We’ve only Just Begun by the Carpenters – What can I say? We got married in the 70s. 4) No Secrets. But, a society where everyone is treated with respect. 5) Two things. A good walk and my afternoon coffee. Happy Easter Kymber. Allan

  2. I didn’t even have to think about the first question – definitely purple.
    I’ve never thought about a hotdog being a sandwich, but now you have me second guessing.
    Loser by Beck.
    For a secret society I immediately thought of something with books, but I like your answer better.
    Probably the one mini Reese’s cup I allow myself. If I talked to my sons every day, it would be that.

    • YAY for purple! 😀
      Right? Have we been lied to all this time? 😂🤣
      Hahahaha “Loser” is perfectly inappropriate! I love it. 😀
      I like the books idea, too.
      I love Reese’s cups. They are so good!

  3. Here are my answers:
    1. I would say turquoise! Purple comes next…
    2. I think hotdogs could definitely qualify as a sandwich, some places burgers are also called sandwiches I think.
    3. Let’s be a “tad” vulgar : Jizz In My Pants by The Lonely Island
    4. Secret society… Hmm… Never thought about it, but I really like your idea so I’d apply to that one 👍
    5. I look forward to talk to my mom on WhatsApp who I haven’t seen in person for 5 years! And my daughter who usually FaceTimes three times a day 😂

      1. I think turquoise would look so cool!
      2. I think you’re right about burgers being called sandwiches at times. So, why not a hotdog? 😀
      3. LMAO! That song choice is hilariously inappropriate. haha
      4. Cool! You’re in!
      5. Oh my, that must be so hard. Thank goodness for WhatsApp and FaceTime where you can talk to the people you miss.

      Great answers! Thank you so much for playing!

  4. If you could change the color of your eyes to anything that doesn’t look natural at all, which color would you choose? Kaleidoscope colors, like stained glass?
    Is a hotdog a sandwich? Nope and never will be 🙂
    What is a song that is totally unsuitable to propose to a person with? “I will survive” Gloria Gaynor
    What kind of secret society would you start? I don’t like secret societies.
    What do you look forward to every day? To a new day.

    I love purple eyes. I was always fascinated by how Elizabeth Taylor made her blue eyes look violet. The right wall color and my eye look violet too (I have very blue eyes).

    • Ooooh, I love that! Stained glass would be so cool to see!
      LOLOL Noted. 😀
      Hahaha “I Will Survive” is a hilarious answer.
      I look forward to that, too. 🙂

      I was definitely thinking of Liz when I answered that. I love that your eyes sometimes look violet. I have very blue eyes, too. 😀

  5. Orange 2. Sure, anything between bread is a sandwich to me. Hot dogs, paninis, etc. 3. Faster, Pussycat! Kill! Kill! (although I’ve often joked that if I ever get married I’d like my bride to walk down the aisle to the music from that song.) 4. The “Let’s point out what a nutcase Aleister Crowley was” society. 5. Seeing what other bloggers have put up that day.

  6. Here are my most heartfelt answers to this very fun challenge.

    If you could change the color of your eyes to anything that doesn’t look natural at all, which color would you choose? I would choose radioactive green which is like chartreuse with LED lights. I’d be a lot better f fun in the dark.

    Is a hotdog a sandwich? I think if it’s one of those skinny hotdogs it could meet the strict criteria for a sandwich but if you use one of those big dogs, it’s a dog on a bread platter, a whole new category most likely.

    What is a song that is totally unsuitable to propose to a person with? Rolling Stones, Can’t Get No Satisfaction. ( but I would get a real good kick in the pants)

    What kind of secret society would you start? I would start a secret Alchemist society where we would use quantum mechanics and the energy of the universe to teleport to deserted islands where we would have grand feasts, drink pear wine, and sleep in hammocks under the stars.

    What do you look forward to every day? Teleporting to desert islands. While waiting, I like to have a delicious apple fritter and a cup of hot chocolate.

  7. Purple eyes should only belong to Liz Taylor. I would pick red to mimic the fire in my soul and to match the bloodshot around them.
    NO. A hot dog is a hot dog. The bun is incidental.
    An inappropriate proposal song…Maybe Queen’s Fat Bottom Girls.
    A secret society I’d start would be something where no one could find me. Maybe like the Lost Old man club.
    And the one thing I look forward to every day is…waking up.

    Now, your turn…
    Pick one to run away with…Clark Gable, Cary Grant or Errol Flynn.
    Bette Davis or Joan Crawford.
    Favorite Black and white movie.
    Best Comedy of all time.

    My answers…
    I’ll pass on the first one, but Cary Grant is my favorite of all time.
    I LOVE Bette Davis. No one could be more sweet or more evil.
    Favorite B&W movie…Yankee Doodle Dandy. Also my fovorite film of all time,
    Best comedy, Hold That Ghost with Bud and Lou.

    • Your answers are wonderful! I love Liz Taylor’s eyes, too. Only she can pull them off. 😀

      Fat Bottom Girls cracked me up. LOL

      Okay… your questions:
      1. I agree – Cary Grant for me. He was so much fun in Arsenic and Old Lace.
      2. Yes, I agree with this one, too! Crawford had flair, but no one could beat Davis on any level.
      3. My favorite black and white movie is “For Me and My Gal” with Judy Garland and Gene Kelly. They are my absolute favorite performers of all time.
      Here is a photo they did to promote the movie:
      Jujenea
      4. Best comedy? It’s hard to beat the one you chose… Let’s see… I love Summer Stock with, you guessed it Judy and Gene. But I will try to choose something even if Judy isn’t in it…. Oh! I have it. My favorite comedy is Clue. 😀

  8. Good answers. Even Liz Taylor’s violet eye colour may have been a myth, so something to strive for. Nice that your daughter phones often. We have two sons and well, that just does not happen. Happy Friday Kymber. Allan

    • I was definitely thinking of Elizabeth Taylor’s violet eyes. She was so beautiful.

      We have a son, too, and I know what you mean about sons and phoning home. lol

      Happy Friday!

  9. Kymber, I love the idea of purple eyes – what a striking look that would be! Aww … how lovely that you chat to your daughter everyday and I talk to my mother at least once a day and treasure the conversations. Finally, as to secret clubs, my friends and I had one, CEA (our initials) and had fun sleuthing and probably being very annoying!

  10. Good questions! I love your answers too!
    1. Pink for sure! I just had pink and purplish streaks.
    2 Yes, a hot dog is more or less like a sandwich. Mucha mustard, por favor!
    3 A song in Spanish entitled “Vete de mi” (Get away from me” by Olga Guillot. It is considered quite romantic, though.
    4 Probably none….not fun of secret societies.
    4 Coffee in the morning, quietly, with Miss Fluff.

    • Thank you! 🙂
      1. That would look so cool!
      2. Yes to the mustard!
      3. Great choice! LOL
      4. I don’t blame you. 😀
      5. That sounds perfect! xoxo

      Thank you for playing!

  11. ChickieDee, where do you come up with these interesting thoughts? 😲 I love your out-of the-box ‘getting to know you’ thoughts and piquing our interest with your delightful answers! 🙌🏼 Purple eyes 💜👀🟣👁‍🗨🟪 and you still haven’t found what you’re looking for? Girlfriend, you are too much. Love your answers! 🤗💖🥰

  12. The unsuitable song to propose to made me lol. I don’t think there could be a more inappropriate thing to hear or sing in that moment. I also like the idea of a secret society of niceness. We certainly need more societies like that in the world today.🙂

    • Thank you so much, Bruce. That song was the first one that came to mind. LOL It’s soooo inappropriate. haha I agree about needing more societies of niceness in the world today. 🙂

  13. Hi Kymber, I like your answers. I chose violet for eyes which is close to your purple. A hotdog is a type of sandwich. It’s the end of the World as you know it by REM is my song choice. Secret society – useless for me, I can never hold my tongue. The best parts of my days are the blogging, reading, and creating parts.

    • Violet eyes would be so, so pretty. I think that’s a great choice. I kind of think of it as a cousin to the sandwich or a type of sandwich. 😀 That, my friend, is a hilarious song for a proposal! I suppose it’s not hilarious if you’re the one being proposed to, but I love that. LOL That’s funny. I’m probably in the same boat. My problem would be wanting to include everyone. haha I love that answer!

      Thank you so much for playing! 🙂

  14. 1…the eyes have to be a ghostly grey (does that colour exist lol)

    Hotdogs….just that … hotdogs 😬
    Stuck here….forward please
    secret society…. sorry can’t tell…it’s a secret lol ….
    would be nice to rewrite dictionaries…new meanings to words…sounds fun. A secret society as such😬
    look forward to home after work and my girls 🤗

    Love your answers, Kymber…🤍

    • Oooooh ghostly eyes would be so cool! You might have just made up a new color! 😀 Hotdogs are hotdogs. You are probably right. LOL Great secret society! I would want in on that, for sure. I can see why you’d look forward to that. Sounds nice to be done with the workday and then see the girls. 🙂

      Thank you so much, Destiny. And thank you for playing. xo

  15. Interesting Q & A as always, Kymber. 🙂 I love your secret society idea! My answers:

    1) Black – spooky and mysterious! 😆
    2) I’d say sandwich adjacent. A hot dog bun is technically one piece of bread, not two.
    3) 50 Ways To Leave Your Lover by Paul Simon
    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ABXtWqmArUU
    4) I loved your answer and would want to do that as well!
    5) Going out with hubby and Zoey (our dog) for an afternoon romp at the park (weather permitting).

    • I think black would be cool! Oh, I like that! “Sandwich adjacent.” I never thought about the bun being one piece of bread, and not two. Great point! “50 Ways to Leave Your Lover!” LOLOL Good one! 😀 That sounds so nice for the afternoon. I hope your weather cooperates. 😀

  16. I love your answers! 🙂 🙂 🙂

    I would choose green eyes
    The idea that a hot dog is a sandwich is heresy to some people. But given that the definition of a sandwich is ‘two or more slices of bread or a split roll having a filling in between,’ there is no sensible way around it.
    “You Give Love a Bad Name” by Bon Jovi
    One where we would be slaying modern-day dragons
    I look forward to picking up the book I am reading at the time

    • Thank you so much. 😀

      I think green eyes are sooo striking! I love what you said about the hotdog. LOL OMG Yes!!! That song is perfectly unsuitable for a proposal. haha I would join that secret society! I have a sword around here somewhere, I think. LOL Isn’t that such a wonderful feeling? Being able to pick that book up that you can’t wait to finish. 😀

      Great answers! Thank you so much for playing!

  17. Red
    It’s essentially a sandwich, even though I never call it one lol
    “Dirty Love” by Thunder
    The Secret Society of Super Simians: World domination and all that
    Coffee and/or sleep

    • I wondered who was going to pick red! lol 😀 I can see why you’d say it’s a sandwich. “Dirty Love.” hahahahaha I’m seriously laughing out loud. For real. Of course! I should have known that’s what your secret society would be. 😀 Nice. Same. lol

      • It’s actually a great song. You should check it out!
        When I make video game characters I often give them red eyes. 🤷‍♂️
        I figure if I plan to be emperor, I need an army, do I not? lol

        • I’ll definitely look the song up. Can’t wait to listen. 🙂

          I had a character in my Noble Doubt story with red eyes but only certain people could see how they were really red.

          You do! You definitely do! lol

          • I am actively recruiting, so if you want to join please let me know lol

            It’s really a great song, especially if you like 80s guitar music.

            • I loooooooooves me some 80s guitar music! That’s what it’s all about. 😀 I bet when I listen to it, I’ll probably recognize it. I was a teen in the 80s and I gravitated more to guitars than I did to synthesizer. 😀 I think every song should have a great guitar solo. haha

              Yes, consider me recruited! I know nothing, so you’ll have to make sure I’m trained. LOL

            • I had heard it, but it wasn’t one of the huge hit back in the day. When I first heard it after a long time, I was like “Holy hell, I know this one!” 😄

              Of course thee will be training! I will mold you all into hellfire fury commandos! Implements of conquest and dominance! We are COSS! (Consortium Of Super Simians)

            • That’s cool! I haven’t looked it up yet because everybody and their brother has been calling me all day. LOL 😀 I am looking forward to it, though.

              Woot woot! Should I be this excited about being molded into a hellfire fury commando? LOLOL Ooooh, the name is perfect!

            • Of course you should! What kind of soldier asks a question like that?
              When our victory caravan is riding across continents, receiving lavish praises and being welcomed as conquering heroes, I challenge you then to ask me if you should be excited!

            • Clearly not. 🙄
              Aye, you will need much training, I see. Fear not. We will break you down and rebuild you into a formidable fighting machine. You foes will flee in terror when they see you enter the fray!

  18. Ah, you stole my favorite eye color, violet! If not, I’d want tiger eyes!
    Same, a hot dog is just that!
    Ok, this is rude, but the song is “She F*cking Hates Me” by Puddle of Mudd.
    Probably a crafting society that only focuses on making crafts from items found in nature, like rocks and shells.
    Lately, I most look forward to bedtime, when I can take my medication that lets me sleep without pain. Other than that, spending time with friends at the pool has been an almost daily activity since the month of March started.

  19. What a great thing to do….
    1. I would love to have deep blue eyes. My eyes are blue anyway but lighter than I would like.
    2. hotdog to me is a hotdog.. all on its own.
    3.I can’t think of a song… lol
    4. my secret society would be to spread anonymous messages of positivity on post-it notes around my City to be found by people
    5. I look forward every day to my 15 minutes of mindfulness. I sit with my eyes closed and spend 15 minutes every morning to think of all the things I am grateful for. It starts my day off right with the right attitude.

    I love you answers too!!

    • Thank you, Stella!

      I think deep blue eyes would be striking! LOL about hotdogs. It does seem like it’s kind of just… that. lol I absolutely love your secret society idea. It would be fun to be a part of it. I think that is a great idea everyday. I should do that.

      Thank you so much. Your answers are awesome!

      • You are welcome… I’ve been doing something new the past couple of months. I make it a point to compliment at least one person for something…No matter how small.

        I complimented a young lady yesterday on her glasses and her face just lit right up and I got a big smile. She told me they were new and she was nervous about the bright colours, but I made her day.

        It feels good to spread some kindness these days…

        • That is lovely. And because you don’t necessarily what that person might be facing on a given day, I bet that compliment really means something. You’re sowing seeds of kindness by doing that. It’s to be admired, and I am going to do that every day, too. You have inspired me.

          That’s great about the glasses and how that compliment was just the right thing for that person. I love that so much.

          It sure does. I agree 100%.
