It’s that time again, kidz!
I’m droppin’ another vlog down in the hizzle, yo!
(I have no idea what the above means…I’m hoping someone can fill me in…?)
So…what do you want to know? Nothing? Good.
Everything? Uh oh.
Now would probably be a good time to tell you: I reserve the right to delete any and all questions. Or refuse to answer them.
Here are a few examples to get you going…
*What’s the stupidest thing I’ve ever done? (you might wanna be more specific with this one…)
*How many times did I fail my drivers license test?
*What movie have I seen the most times?
*What do I hate about blogging?
*What scares me the most?
*What celebrity do I hate the most?
*Why are we here?
See…the possibilities are endless! Ask me!
And for extra fun, if you leave a question, feel free to leave YOUR answer to your question as well in your comment so we can compare answers (and ridicule each other).

How do you juggle work, family, and writing, much less the vlog?
I too have the same question for you Darla! 🙂 Now study is also added to this list.
Is there anything you’ve ever said that you immediately knew you shouldn’t have? If so, how did you try to take it back?
So, just how many celebrities have YOU pissed off by your actions? (Technically one, in my case, with a second done by my car. But that’s another story….) 😉
Well, first I believe we need the answers to all of those questions your kids asked. I mean really . . . DO you like pink? AND unicorns? I’m dying to know the answers!
So, here’s MY question . . . .
Due to the current heated political climate and all of the diverse and heated issues being debated at this time, I just must know your position on this issue:
Beiber. Pro or Con? And what is your position on the Beleibers?
Peace out, home slice.
Who did you go to for advice when you were growing up?
Hmm–I’m wondering if anyone else is having trouble hearing you, or if it’s just my pre-mature deafness? No, that’s not my real question.
What I’m actually wondering is how you manage to have nothing hanging in the closet behind you. Mine are bulging with clothes, not enough room to hang them. So, do you have closet-organizing down to a domestic science or does it just look that way?
Good luck with school!
Hugs,
Kathy
Here is my question: Why is gravy so gross yet so yummy?
I prefer not to be plugged by anyone if it involves guns or gangsters. Though that does not mean that I don’t support whatever that gun amendment is.
Hmm, questions …..
1. Why do I not detect a Maine-y accent on your fo’ shizzle vlog?
2. How is hubs coping with all that you’re balancing right now?
3. Will you still remember all of us “little people” (actually, I’m not so little at 6’1″) when you become a famous celebrity nurse?
4. Paper, plastic, or BYOBag?
5. Is it still true that you will miss my blog more than any other? Shoot, is that selfish, or narcissistic, or representative of low self-esteem? Wait, is this a three-part question, now?
6. Will you do your best to try not to feel guilty while you are taking care of your school stuff and your family?
What will you be studying this time? What will your new degree be in?? Why in the world did you decide to go back to school? Are you crazy? Best of luck!
Ooh! Q&A – fun!
1. What is your favorite thing about living in Maine?
2. Gummy bears – yay or nay?
No questions, just good wishes for a wonderful term.
Just where the hell have I been?!
I was wondering that, too.
A long painful story…very limited in computer time right now…sorry to be so vague
Have you seen my car keys?
Who put the ram in the ramalamadingdong?
When you are done with nursing school, do you want to join me on tour as part of a nurse-comedy-vaudeville troupe?
Yeah, who was that man? Personally, I’d like to shake his hand.
I’m still trying to discover the meaning behind those words. I’m sure they’re profound. Darla, is there any song you get stuck on?
How do you get your left eyebrow to go up by itself? I can only do my right.
Do you not think that you will get bored in class and start writing a blog instead?
On a scale of 1 – 10, 10 being absofreakinglutely, how willing are you to do a vlog during a hands-on dissection in a lab using some sort of helmet cam?
How much coffee have you purchased in anticipation of all your studying?
Isn’t the real reason you’re going back to school so that you can cruise for young guys?
Why were you stuttering?
Did you get life credits for nursing for all the boo-boos you have bandaged?
Do you call them boo-boos or “owies” (a word that I hate so much I will reconsider whether I continue to follow you).
Have upi ever tu[ed a cp,,emtotj upir fomgers pm tje wrpmg leus amd jot “post comment”?
Have you ever typed a comment with your fingers on the wrong keys and hit “post comment”?
I am so glad you clarified that. I thought I was having a stroke! 😉
Good luck again, hope it goes well!
What do your kids think about mommy going back to school?
And really, how many times DID you fail your driver’s license test? 😉
What is the craziest thing you’ve ever done as a mom? I love the left eyebrow lift! It was enchanting! I sure will miss your blogging and vlogging… (Those same shoes are still in the hallway, btw.)
OK, I’m in: What’s the most embarrassing thing you own.
Since you’re the Java Queen my question is: what’s your favorite coffee/blend/roast/brand?
I became hooked on a local roaster in my area, Bellingham Bay Coffee Roasters. Their Fairhaven blend is my latest addiction. French pressed, of course!
Darlinski, I have 4 probing questions.
1) Are you sure you weren’t drunk when you made this vlog?
2) I noticed there was a different pair of shoes in the hallway outside your computer room than in the last vlog. Do you have a hall-shoe-of-the-day ritual?
3) Can someone learn to do that cool thing with the eyebrow (like Spock) or do you have to born with the ability? Can surgery help?
4) Where the hell did you get those stache-glasses? Does Jules love you more than me????
…and 3 comments
1) You are the queen of the vlog.
2) I’m gonna miss you SO much while you’re busy with real life.
3) Good luck with school – I know you’ll ace it!
Good luck, D/Freeze Pants!! We’re gonna miss you. You KILL me. “Ya’ll” and “or stupid,” etc. The dry delivery always makes me burst out laughing! And niiiiice pic at the end there, missy 😉
I don’t think I can top your kids’ questions, but…
What’s the most resounding life lesson you’ve learned so far (besides “mustache glasses go with everything”), and was it a person or experience (or both) that taught you?
1. If you have tattoos, what are they and where? If not, and you had to get two, what and where?
2. How many times have you been to Stephen King’s house? (I assume everyone in Maine knows him)
3. (courtesy of Chuck Klosterman) You’re given a phone call to 15-year-old you. You only have 60 seconds to talk; not enough time to prove it’s really you in the future. What do you say?
So many clever questions…I must think about mine.
The only regret I have for our Maine trip (back yesterday, Sunday) is that I didn’t find a way to hook up with you.
Well, I also regret not meeting Stephen King, but I guess I expected too much of you to arrange that for me 🙂
I will sorely miss the present of your presence on this here writers workshop (called a blog). You and Peg really encouraged me to get started on this and now you’re retiring, for a spell. I’m sad…
Wishing you only wonderful adventures in this new chapter of your life.
You’ll be swell, I can tell, … (sung by Ethel Merman, the woman with the B I G voice in the musical film era)
Back later with my questions!
#1. Who is your most favorite blogger, please do not tell it’s me? Ok… if you want then you can go with that. 🙂
#2. What are the three things you know about India, other than me?
#3. Are you going to make sure, your next profile picture must be copyrighted?
1) Are you passing your mug to any other blogger?
2) Have you scheduled your 19th nervous breakdown?
3) Hasn’t WordPress and its minions told you that you can check in … but you can never leave?
what is your third favorite book
do you wear contacts
what course are you taking at school
how tall are you
do you like Pooh or Piglet or Conan the Barbarian
do you do your own hair – looks nice in your video
peace out, and remember
Candy is dandy, liquor is quicker – wish I had said it but Ogden Nash beat me to it – LouAnn
When the lights go out, how do you let the day go?
You’re just going to wing the answers? Oooo…you’re brave. I would have to practice, practice, practice.
I don’t have a question. I just want to hear all the answers to the others.
And good luck with school!
Are you really going to answer all these questions?
Why is your name Darla?
How do you get the smell of burned microwave popcorn out of your hotel room and how do you get the smoke alarm to turn off when the burned popcorn won’t stop smoking (of course it’s a non-smoking room)? Not that this just happened to me, or anything–just curious in case it might happen to someone else in a Pennsylvannia Hotel… Answer this one first please.
Can you tell me what a zigazig ah is? It’s what the Spice Girl’s want, what they really, really want. I might want it too, if I can figure out what it is.
What is your favorite TV sitcom theme song — or three, if you can’t narrow it down — and can you please sing some of the song(s) for us?
Who was a more pathetic addition to a TV sitcom — Andy on Family Ties or Oliver on The Brady Bunch?
How many licks does it take to get to the Tootsie Roll center of a Tootsie Pop?
How much will I miss you while you’re gone? I’ll answer that one. A LOT! Boo-hoo!
I’m pretty sure by looking at all these great questions that I could think of no better, so….looking forward to hearing you deliver the answers!
~d.
p.s. Please definitely answer the Tootsie Roll one, it eludes me.
p.s.s. What *is* hizzle?
why did the vLog disappear?
why haven’t we strung up dick cheney by his toes?
why is it in these modern times when we can put a man on the moon and hold pocket-sized computers that I still get these tremendous headaches?
Cooper – you get headaches? Typical migraines with light and noise sensitivity, or oddball ones? What do you take to treat them? I ask, ’cause i am literally disabled by constant headaches. I’d be happy to share info, here or at your site or via Email. Let me know, I’ll be glad to offer whatever help i can.
Actually…no. It’s a somewhat accurate line from an old Monty Python skit…thanx for the offer tho..
Hey, no problem. Just the thought that there might be another me out there – (SHIVER) – kinda … boggles the imagination. AND scares the POOP outta me! 😀
You’re off to school, and you’ll be spending a lot of time answering questions, so I won’t burden you with any more. But please remember, when you’re a practicing nurse, to use your incredible sense of humor to help patients feel better. It’s a gift you have that is shared by too few nurses, and no doctors.
