[Odetta]

OK, I'm starting a little early because I am not sure if I will be online early tomorrow... :pirate:


So... I'm not really sure what people want to know about me. So, here's a few facts...
I live in Canada, but I am a dual citizen (Can/USA)
I am married... have been married for 12 years.
I now have 4 children... 1 child by birth, the other 3 adopted... 2 as recently as 3 weeks ago.
I teach piano for a living... have been doing so for 20 years.
I can lift 60 pounds over my head.
I am short (5 foot 2).
I have a wee bit (just a smidgen) of a GOD complex.
Turn-ons include "pina coladas... taking walks in the rain..." ( ;) j/k )


I can't imagine what else you guys would care to know, so let 'er fly... I'll answer anything you ask!!! :rock:

Oh! And I may have a pic around here somewhere...

[Daghain]

O, that's an awesome pic! I want your daughter's glasses - they are very cool. :)

Questions:

Were you born in the USA? Where? What made you decide to move to Canada? Was it difficult to emigrate? (Can you guess I'm thinking about it? :lol:)

What is your favorite color?

Do you have a lucky number? What is it?

What's your favorite band right now?

Favorite season?

[fernandito]

I LOVE that pic, O :wub:

Besides obvious choices like T2 and Dodegball - what movie can you watch over and over and not get tired of it?

Which console-generation had the best Zelda game - NES, SNES, 64, Gamecube/Wii?

What was the last movie you saw in theaters?

Which is your favorite superhero and why?

[Sam]

First off, HOLY JUMPING JEFFERIES!! You are stunning dear. Seriously, you remind me of Jeri Ryan. Ok, on with the questions.

How did you get interested in Stephen King?

How did you meet your husband?

Do you have any interest in a slightly balding, somewhat overweight, journeyman stand-up comedian? (just kidding)\

Aside from the birth/adoption of your children and your marriage, what is your favorite memory?

What do you collect, besides dust bunnies?

How old were you when you had your first epiphany?

If you could change one thing, and only one thing, about your life (be specific, like I would have picked the numbers that would have won last weeks lottery specific) what would it be?

I think that will do for now.

[Jon]

They saved the most beautiful woman for last.

[Letti]

Odetta, this picture is breath-taking. You are so beautiful.


When did you start to play the piano? Why did you start it? Was it your decision?

How did you become a teacher? Was it a plan for long in your heart as a kid?

Do you teach children or adults? Or both?

Who is your favourite student right now?

How many lessons do you have a week?

Aren't you bored or tired of teaching sometimes?

[Odetta]

O, that's an awesome pic! I want your daughter's glasses - they are very cool. :)
:wub:
I will tell Eve you like her glasses!


Questions:

Were you born in the USA? Where? What made you decide to move to Canada? Was it difficult to emigrate? (Can you guess I'm thinking about it? :lol:)
I was NOT born in the USA, I was born in Canada, but my parents are American, which is why I am able to be a dual citizen.
If you want to move to Canada, you need a worker's VISA and have someone to sponsor you so you can stay here forever!
(and live in my basement):wub:


What is your favorite color?

My favorite color is yellow


Do you have a lucky number? What is it?

I don't believe in luck, but my favorite number is 17.


What's your favorite band right now?


My musical tastes are sooo varied, I never really have just one band I'm listening to. Right now on my ipod, I've been listening to a lot of Metallica...
(yeah, I'm a banger-babe)


Favorite season?

Summer, baby! I like it HOT!


thanks for asking, hunny-bunny!

[Odetta]

I LOVE that pic, O :wub:

:blush: Speak Spanish to me, lover! RAWR!


Besides obvious choices like T2 and Dodegball - what movie can you watch over and over and not get tired of it?

I have so many... here's a short list of the movies I watch repeatedly...
Alien, Aliens, Alien3
Godfather trilogy
T2 and Terminator
Dodgeball
Will Ferrell movies
Christopher Guest/Eugene Levy movies
Predator

I know I'm missing some...


Which console-generation had the best Zelda game - NES, SNES, 64, Gamecube/Wii?

N64 because my favorite was OoT


What was the last movie you saw in theaters?

Indiana Jones and Crystal Skull
(I know, I', DYING that I haven't seen Dark Knight yet, hard to get a sitter for 4 kids!):cry:


Which is your favorite superhero and why?

Batman, dur! No, seriously, Batman has always been my fave... even before all the movies. I love his dark edgy side.
After Batman, Wolverine... probably for similar reasons :wub:


Anything else you want to know??? :huglove:

[Odetta]

First off, HOLY JUMPING JEFFERIES!! You are stunning dear. Seriously, you remind me of Jeri Ryan.
AWE... :blush: thankee!


Ok, on with the questions.
bring 'em on!


How did you get interested in Stephen King?

I can't remember HOW I got interested, but I do remember the first book I read was Pet Semetary and I was hooked from then on!


How did you meet your husband?

We met at the bar... seriously. I was at the club with my friend and there he was... my studmuffin!
(We sucked face the rest of the night and the rest is history!)


Do you have any interest in a slightly balding, somewhat overweight, journeyman stand-up comedian? (just kidding)

You had me at balding! :wub:


Aside from the birth/adoption of your children and your marriage, what is your favorite memory?

hmmm... there was this little island just off of Venezuela that was so beautiful... I go there in my mind often.


What do you collect, besides dust bunnies?

Lately, it seems like I collect children (yeah, that sounded a little creepy)
Um, plants... I have a ridiculous number of plants... seriously, it's like a greenhouse in here!


How old were you when you had your first epiphany?

Probably in high school, when I realized that I was questioning the existence of god.


If you could change one thing, and only one thing, about your life (be specific, like I would have picked the numbers that would have won last weeks lottery specific) what would it be?

When I had no children, I would have made better use of my free time!


I think that will do for now.

OK, let me know if you want to know anything else, sir! :couple:

[Odetta]

They saved the most beautiful woman for last.

Are you TRYING to make me melt????? 'cuz it's working! :wub:

[Odetta]

Odetta, this picture is breath-taking. You are so beautiful.

THIS compliment from Letti! :wub:



When did you start to play the piano? Why did you start it? Was it your decision?

I started playing when I was 8. My parents asked me if I wanted to play the piano, I said yes, they bought me a piano.


How did you become a teacher? Was it a plan for long in your heart as a kid?

If you had asked me if I would become a piano teacher as a kid I would have laughed at you! I started teaching when I was 17 for MY piano teacher at the time... and I realized I loved it!


Do you teach children or adults? Or both?

I teach both


Who is your favourite student right now?

I teach these 2 brothers (one is 12 and one is 15) who are truly amazing and very passionate about playing.


How many lessons do you have a week?

Fortunately, I have only about 20 students this year, I usually have more, but with the adoptions, I am glad I have less because I've needed to be around more.


Aren't you bored or tired of teaching sometimes?
Most definitely! Especially after 20 years! What I REALLY want to do is open a studio and have teachers working for me!


thanks, darlin'! :)

[wizardsrainbow]

It's pretty unanimous here and I toss in my vote, Odetta is babelicious!

(1) Although I have not done it myself, I have great respect for people who adopt. What circumstances led you to do so?

(2) Are you a morning person or a night owl? How about your husband?

(3) If you had an animal familiar, what animal would that be?

(4) Do you believe in reincarnation?

(5) What 3 things do you consider to be personal strengths if you were to describe yourself?

Thanks ever so much!!

Odetta you beautiful lovely lady! :wub: *waves*

:blush: *waves back*


What is your favorite plant in your house? How old is your oldest plant?

my fave plant is my giant peace lily. I have had it for about 20 years and I got it from one of my music teachers. She had it for at least 10 years, so I'm thinking it's about 30 years old!


What is your favorite T-Shirt?

hmmm... I don't have one at the moment... I have a killer red dress tho!


What is in your CD player at this moment?

Queens Greatest Hits 2


How are the girls doing with the two new additions?

Things are going as well as can be expected... I think it's going to take a long time.


You said you went to an island just off of Venezuela. When did you go and do you have plans to try and get back?

I was 15... I went with a church group and we painted a school for some of the local children.
I would like to go back... especially to that beach!


Favorite smilie?

I have 3...
:pirate:
:nana:
and
:wtf:


Candy or Chocolate?

chocolate... but only the really good, expensive kind


Favorite non alcohol drink?

I make really good fruit smoothies!


Favorite alcoholic drink?

Jack Daniels


hope this answers your questions! *smooch*

[Odetta]

:fairy: Wow...none of the pictures you've ever posted before have clearly shown your face...you are gorgeous!! Why are you so camera shy on here???


*kicks dirt*

i dunno

[alinda]

O, please allow me to echo the above statements in regards to your overpowering beauty! WOW your stunningly lovely! :)
Today I am asking everyone the same question...
Do you believe in ghosts? Have you ever seen one?

[Odetta]

It's pretty unanimous here and I toss in my vote, Odetta is babelicious!

I love you, too! *kiss*


(1) Although I have not done it myself, I have great respect for people who adopt. What circumstances led you to do so?

Well, my husband was adopted when he was 4, so I guess it was always something we wanted to do... have one and adopt one. Which became 3.


(2) Are you a morning person or a night owl? How about your husband?

I am a noon person, actually. He is a night owl.


(3) If you had an animal familiar, what animal would that be?

Probably a jaguar or a leopard... which is weird, because I am not a cat person, but I do think that those would be the animals!


(4) Do you believe in reincarnation?

I believe in reincarnation MORE than I believe in heaven and hell... if that makes sense.


(5) What 3 things do you consider to be personal strengths if you were to describe yourself?

I am the "go-to" person for advice and help.

I tell it straight, no dicking around. Sometimes, it gets me in trouble, but I still think it is a strength.

I have empathy.


Thanks ever so much!!

You are ever so welcome! :couple:

[Odetta]

O, please allow me to echo the above statements in regards to your overpowering beauty! WOW your stunningly lovely! :)

you flatter me... :blush:


Today I am asking everyone the same question...
Do you believe in ghosts? Have you ever seen one?

This may be a wishy-washy answer, but some days I do, some days I don't.
No, I have never seen a ghost... that I am aware of.
:orely:

[alinda]

Cool, but let me say that spirits do not always take on a form that can be seen:orely:
Now I got me thinking about that strange breeze late last night! :lol:

[Odetta]

was it a *ahem* good breeze?

[alinda]

:huglove:twas like a soft kiss...

[MrQuint]

Not only do you display sound mind and judgment, but you're 'effing HOT. It doesn’t get any better that that *sighs* .
Can we get a pict of you holding 60 lbs over your head? :drool:

Now, since I’ve recently re-watched the first 3 parts of the Alien Quadriliogy over and over again myself (Pretty much on loop all summer, you must have Encore On Demand) I have this question for you … How pissed were you that Newt and Hicks died in the opening credits of 3? To me it cheapened the whole 2nd film. I refuse to acknowledge that 3 even happened. My buddy at works tells me to STFU and relax, but I can't!

[Odetta]

awe, Quinty-kins! :wub:
That's probably the last pic you'll see of me for awhile, maybe you could edit it showing me pumping iron, i guess...

All I can say is, STFU and relax! ;)




seriously? I was glad Newt bought it, that kid drove me nuts! Can you really imagine her screaming through ANOTHER ALIEN MOVIE? REALLY????
Sad about Hicks, tho... but it made sense. To have her be all alone in a Y chromosome facility with no ally?

[Odetta]

:huglove:twas like a soft kiss...

sigh... I love those breezes!

<snip>

Do you have a lucky number? What is it?

I have empathy.

and I love you too!



it's definite now. i love you!

:wub: :wub:

and I, dear turtle, love you! *smooch*


okay, enough worshipping of odetta idols. on to the questions.

there's never enough worshipping, it's good to be the Messiah :pirate:


1. what is your biggest regret in life?

I cheated on my ex boyfriend rather than just breaking up with him.
I was young and stupid.


2. what is your most embarassing moment?

oh, there's many, but here's a funny one!
When I was in high school, I was talking to one of my best friends on the phone when I went to say good-bye to my friend, I said "I love you" instead!


3. how old were you when you had your first kiss?

I won't count the little silly kisses you give each other when you're really young, like in grade one and stuff...
my first REAL kiss was when I was 15, when I went to Venezuela


4. how old were you when you first had sex? (hey, you said ask you anything!)

I was 17.


5. do you know how beautiful you are or do you hear people say it and not really take it in?

huh? Did you say something?


6. are you raising your children to believe in god? or are you raising them to make up their own minds?

being married to an atheist and being a fence sitter about the existence of god, myself, I will definitely let them make up their own minds.


7. if i'm very quiet can i live in a spare closet too? :D

sure! I have a closet under our stairs in the basement... that should work out nicely!

About that spot next to the bed, what I meant by spot next on the floor next to the bed was the spot where your husband doesn't sleep because he's still awake until he comes to bed. Then I'll stay there and he can have the floor. :D

That's it for now and thanks for the fish.

[Darkthoughts]

:lol: Excellent questions!

I'm really gonna have to think more before I grill you O, you're quite the enigma...I'd like to prolong the moment :D

[Odetta]

Yeah, I wanna know if I can have that little spot on the floor next to your side of the bed?:drool: I don't shed (much), and I haven't chased a car in several years, I swear. :panic:

You'd have to sleep on a pile of my clothes, if that works for you!

About that spot next to the bed, what I meant by spot next on the floor next to the bed was the spot where your husband doesn't sleep because he's still awake until he comes to bed. Then I'll stay there and he can have the floor. :D

That's it for now and thanks for the fish.

Do you read in bed?

[Odetta]

Hmm, well I've probably built them up too much now...but here goes :D

let's see what'cha got, babycakes!


Do you post at any other forums?

I used to post at several just general sites, mostly started from people from tdt.net, but now, I'm pretty much just on here and lurk other places.


What was your favourite subject at school?

all the arts... music, drama, english, etc.


Were you part of any particular social group at school?

not really, I had friends from all groups. I did spend a little more time in the drama dept.


What kind of child were you?

Mouthy


What kind of night out do you prefer? A meal? A bar? A club?

I love to go out for a really nice dinner and then hit a bar to play pool!


Have you ever been in a fight?

Yes... I wasn't cut, but had several bruises afterwards.


If you had to give money to a charity every year, which charity would you chose?

Food Bank


What woman, from any point in history up to the present, do you most admire and why?

I'll come back to this one... I gotta go!


Same again, but for a man.

I'll come back to this one... I gotta go.



If you had an Odettafest, what bands would play? What kind of stalls would there be? What kind of food stalls? Would we all get in for free?

Well, an Odettafest would have bands in their prime... Pink Floyd, Queen, The Smiths, Metallica, Santana, Paul Simon, Iggy Pop, U2, Peter Gabriel, Tito and the Tarantula, I could go on and on!
Food stalls would be a range of ethnic yummies from around the globe.

and no... you're gonna have to pay... a gal has to make a living!

[alinda]

:excited: Sounds like a lot of fun to me!

[fernandito]

Hola hermosa, soy yo otra vez :huglove: I'm about to go all nerdy on you :


Which Wii game are you most looking forward to?

Who is your favorite character in Mario Kart? (I love playing as Baby Luigi, but King Boo is the shit!)

Have you unlocked all the characters?

What's your favorite stage in Ocarina of Time?

What's your favorite Link suit?

Favorite Link's sub-weapon?

Favorite LoZ boss battle?

[Odetta]

What woman, from any point in history up to the present, do you most admire and why?

Clara Schumann, she was a composer who was actually able to get her material printed, even being a woman, at a time when women weren't allowed to do so.


Same again, but for a man.

This may seem odd, but I admire Spud Webb... he was a NBA basketball player many years ago, but he was only 5 feet 6 inches tall, and he was amazing!

Can you imagine how hard these 2 people had to fight to do what they were passionate about?

[Odetta]

Which is your favorite Shakespeare play?

I am a big Shakespeare fan, in fact, I have this really cool picture that is of a tree with dozens of Shakespeare characters represented... I'll try to get a good pic of it for you!

I would have to say MACBETH is my fave followed by A MIDSUMMER NIGHT'S DREAM.


Poe or Kipling?

I would have to say... Nevermore...

Reminds me of a quote
"Do you prefer Kipling, Miss Scarlet?"
"Sure, I'll eat anything."
-Clue



Do you read in bed?

yes I do.

:rose:

[Odetta]

Hola hermosa, soy yo otra vez :huglove:

say it again! AGAIN! :P


I'm about to go all nerdy on you :

nerds rule...


Which Wii game are you most looking forward to?

I'm actually not sure, is there another Zelda game planned?


Who is your favorite character in Mario Kart? (I love playing as Baby Luigi, but King Boo is the shit!)

Yoshi... he's my all-time fave Nintendo character.
but I like the little guys too... Koopa Troopa
(hey, are we ever gonna play online?)

Do you sleep in the nude? If not, what do you typically wear?
What is your preferred sleeping position?
Where is the wildest place you have made whoopi?
Ever kissed a girl and liked it?

[Sam]

What scares you the most? I don't mean what frightens you, and I don't mean what makes you tear up when you think about it. I mean what is that thing that wakes you up crying and screaming from that nightmarish Hell you just snapped out of. So, what scares you the most?

Oh, one more. What's you're very honest-to-goodness-favorite sex act? And try not to be boring and just say "making love". That's fun too, but it ain't :excited:FUN:excited:

[Daghain]

Ah! I always look forward to this question on everyone's threads.
Appetizer - cheese fondue
Entree - Pepper-crusted Rack of lamb with fresh asparagus and cheese risotto
Dessert - Creme Brulee
Bevie - non-sweetened ice tea


Do you sleep in the nude?

yes

on my side, almost on my stomach, with a pillow under my leg


Where is the wildest place you have made whoopi?

I think I answered this one already... public park, picnic table, broad daylight


Ever kissed a girl and liked it?

Thanks! Now I have that song in my head!
no, I have not

[Odetta]

What scares you the most? I don't mean what frightens you, and I don't mean what makes you tear up when you think about it. I mean what is that thing that wakes you up crying and screaming from that nightmarish Hell you just snapped out of. So, what scares you the most?

Being buried alive

I have to pick one?
Fine! Oral sex would be my fave... both giving and receiving

What was the hardest thing you've ever done?

The last 3 weeks have been the hardest of my life... with the new kids and the adoptions. To not give up.

[Odetta]

What is the cruelest thing you've ever done?

I think it's the same as my biggest regret... being unfaithful to my ex


What is the kindest thing you've ever done?

good question... I'm not sure


What is the cruelest thing ever done to you?

I'd rather not say... it's too painful and it makes me sick to talk about.


What is the kindest thing ever done for you?

I don't know if it's the KINDEST thing, but it is something that stands out in my mind. It happened a few years ago...
I was sick and I had to cancel my piano student's lessons. Later that night, one of my student's mom came over and brought me chicken soup and biscuits.

Sorry to hijack your thread ...

[Odetta]

Favorite Christoper Guest movie? (as either writer,actor and/or director or any combo of the three - Spinal Tap does not count)

If I can't say Spinal Tap, then I would say...

Best in Show

For your Consideration is also pretty good, have you seen that one?

[MrQuint]

For your Consideration is also pretty good, have you seen that one?

You can't throw the baby out with the bathwater because then all you have is a wet, critically injured baby ... LMAO

[MrQuint]

And I can't decide what my Fav is, they're all so great. I wub Parker Posey.

[Odetta]

my daughter and I do the Best in Show scene...

"Don't SPIT at me!"
"Don't you yell at me... ouch! You take care of it!"
"I will take care of it!"


I can't wait for the next one to come out! I really enjoyed For Your Consideration...
we own all of them.

[Daghain]

My fave is still Best in Show.

Bizzy Bee! We can't find Bizzy Bee!!!! :lol:

[MrQuint]

For Your Consideration was great. Very underrated. I loved the whole story (Home for Purim) within the story. Genius.

Anyway ... what's the "next one"?

[Odetta]

I haven't heard anything, but I keep looking for hints of whatthe next movie might be.

Dags - LOVE the scene where she's in the hotel and she yells "Thanks for your help you STUPID HOTEL MANAGER!"

BTW, you know the fish she picks up in the pet store in the hotel and screams... "This is a FISH!" ?
We have THAT FISH! It's on my daughter's bed. We found it in a store and bought it and every once in awhile, one of us picks it up and screams that line!
