I saw this meme over at Fizzy Thoughts, and I figured it might be a good thing to do to fill some of my June while I am gone. Back when I first started blogging, I did memes all the time, but I couldn't even tell you the last time I've done one. So this is for old time's sake.
Four jobs I've had in my life:
1. Corn detassler
2. Bank teller
3. Internal auditor
4. CPA
Four books I would read over and over:
1. Post-Birthday World - Lionel Shriver
2. To Kill a Mockingbird - Harper Lee
3. Outlaw - Warren Kiefer
4. Fingersmith - Sarah Waters
Four places I have lived:
1. Attica, Indiana
2. Muncie, Indiana
3. Fort Wayne, Indiana
4. Orlando, Florida
Four books I would recommend (that I've read in 2011):
1. A Visit From the Goon Squad - Jennifer Egan
2. Crooked Letter, Crooked Letter - Tom Franklin
3. The Pursuit of Happiness - Maira Kalman
4. This Is Where I Leave You - Jonathan Tropper
Four places I have been:
1. Berlin, Germany
2. Nice, France
3. London, England
4. Auschwitz, Poland
Four of my favorite foods:
1. Risotto
2. Pizza
3. Dover sole
4. Steak
Four of my favorite drinks:
1. Wine
2. Diet Coke
3. Green tea
4. Anything my husband mixes from the bar
Four places I would rather be right now:
1. At the beach (reading)
2. On a hike somewhere with cool weather
3. At a spa
4. At an amusement park, riding roller coasters
Four things that are very special in my life:
1. My family
2. My friends
3. My pets
4. My books
Four bloggers I hope will do this meme:
Everyone that wants to! It is fun to do these once in awhile!

FUn! I'm with you on the food choices. LOL.
I can't believe I haven't read more of your recommended books. I totally trust your opinion!
Wow, corn detassler! I never thought about there having to be one, but I guess there does!
I have a friend who was a corn detassler as well, and was trying to get her daughter a job doing that this summer. She found out it's all being done by machines now. Great meme, Sandy!
Corn detassler implies the existence of corn tassler! ;-)
I just finished Goon Squad. I loved it. I'm going to read it again this weekend.
Love this (woo hoo for Indiana...and wine!). I definitely need to read Post-Birthday World.
Can I come read with you at the beach?
Corn detassler?? LOL!
I've never traveled outside the United States...my first trip will be to Ireland next year! so excited!
I love the list of your jobs!! "One of these things is not like the other..."
I think I'll do this. It does seem like fun.
Corn detasslers of the world, unite ;) Totally with you re food, wine, green tea & Harper Lee.
Don't know that I could brave Auschwitz. Good for you.
I will take note of the four books you've recommended. I hope to visit Poland someday too.
This is a great meme. I love how you listed Wine as your #1 choice under drinks! I would do the same.
