Meme

So, here are two memes. Today's trivia of the day is the answer to the question "What the heck is a meme, anyway?" I'm sure everyone else already understood this word, but I did not and now I feel much better. I was thinking it was AIMspeak or a short way of saying "Me! Me! Pick Me!" Well, I suppose it sort of is. Anyway, they're fun and make you feel part of a group plus they help you get to know your friends better, so I'm all for them.

Some of those answers were very sneaky. I like that first one too. I'll do it sometime.

I hear you on #15 prioritizing! I try so hard, too.

I like that 4's meme. I'll have to give it a whirl soon. Though I still haven't finished "100 things about me " OR "8 random things about me" ...
