TUNE IN TUESDAY--ALS Walk edition (and some "winter" hair)

If you want to know things that smart people know....then ask me. Today I will enlighten you on how to do the "WALK TO DEFEAT ALS" the right way. Go BIG or go home. Who said that? Confucius? Yup, either him or Gandhi. One of the two.


#1: Have lots of friends and family who love you---check.
#2: Have incredibly cute/naughty grand kids (who also love you) attend---check
#3: Make sure (at least one) of your out-of-town son(s) gets to come too---check
#4: Show some love and respect for the USofA---check
#5: Bring various forms of head gear/accessories (notice the VISOR!)---check
Sometimes in more than one color---check
#6: Get a big lead on the other teams. We are in it to WIN it, yo!---check
#7: When tired, ride on "wheelchair of fire" (that's not just talk, that thing can go FAST) with Papa/Uncle Visor---check
Sometimes giving multiple grand kids a ride---check
#8: When tired also use other forms of transportation, like your dad's shoulders---check
#9: After renewed energy from said rides, explore off the beaten trail ---check
#10: In honor of the ALS walk, show up with new "winter hair" color---check

Now it's time for you questions!!! Hit me! Hit me! Hit me! (srsly, cuz next week I'll be out of town in Hawaii so no TIT)

"Next week I'll be in Hawaii" was typed in teeny tiny letters at the very end. Like it's no big deal or something. How do you live with yourself??? And has your hair never been less than perfect? Goodness!

Your Dad is adorable. I want to be on that fun team with you all.

Love the Winter hair!!! Your eyes are almost jumping through my screen. Nice!!

Dear Memzy,
Will the ALS walk always be on Conference Weekend? Cuz thats vacay weekend and I don't want to miss it again?

Cute winter hair. I will be in Hawaii next week too. We should meet up.

How does "Winter Hair" go with "Hawaii"?

Have a great time!

Do you or your posse have any explanation for the giant, cement, cocoon looking balls on the said walk ? I've seen them often and figure, you, knowing everything and all, might have some knowledge on the subject ! Beautious hair - I too have winter hair thanks to Girlfriend (with a capital "C" or is that "G" ?) And I love your wonderful family and especially your wonderful cute parents - many blessings to them !

Love the winter hair color. I think you've inspired me . . . to get some airline tix to Hawaii (aka HOME. Missing it so much right now.) Have a great trip, and all Sam's fam was accounted for - Ralynn said you were asking. Thanx!

Fun fun fun times.... I'll add the ALS walk to my list of "Reasons Why I Might Survive if I HAD to Live In Bako." The list is longer than you might think.

Questions:

What is the purpose/significance of the two different hats?

I see Nick's girlie is wearing furry winter boots. Uuuuhhhhh... was there a cold snap in either Bako or Vegas I should have heard about?

AV never disappoints to like up to her name.

Katie said...

Sorry 'bout that^^

You guys are a force! I bet those people who are contributing didn't realize you were going to throw little ones in, and on shoulders and scooters? I bet they are using that as a reason to withdraw funding.

Now my question:

I have this redbox movie that I've forgotten to return going on 5 days now. I liked the movie. I just need to know if I should just keep it at this point cause its going to cost me 5 dollars to return, but an additional 20 if I/you decide to keep it. Keep in mind, my extreme cheapness.

Linkster said...

Love the new hair, and how your eyes match your top.

Katie: Make a copy, then return it.

StandsMom said...

Ahhhh, TITuesday. One of my fav days of the week - and for multiple reasons. It's cfa day too, ya know. Loved the pictures. We will most likely be doing those in the next 5-8 years. It runs in Honey's family on both his mom and his dad's sides.

Question One: Nobody seems to be able to tell me why Madonna only has 4 minutes to save the world. Meanwhile...the minutes, hours and days are just tick-ticking by and the world is still here. Splain, please?

Question Two: Have you met the she-couple on Sally's yet? If so, they're totally 'she's', right?

Love your hair, btw. Do you love it? Does it make you want to put on a little more makeup? Or maybe even go a little darker next time?

Hot Pants said...

Are you going to Hawaii with Shed? Cause I'm betting if you are...awe never mind, children are present.

Emily said...

LOVE the hair. How many inches did you cut off?

The Parks Pals are an elite group of awesomeness!

Tell us more about this Hawaii trip.

E said...

Hawaii??? I was ready to leave all these awesome ALS comments but now all I wanna do is go jealous on your hiney. You have some splainin' to do.

Dear Memzy,
Why does your winter hair look gorge, while mine looks all dull and wintery?

Signed,
UglyHair

Memzy said...

MM--I typed it in small letters cuz I didn't want to make a big deal out of it. You know, make everybody jealous. But that's a good point. And you are welcome to be on our "fun team" anytime!

Sunkissed from your beach weekend--I don't think it will always be on conference weekend. Didn't you attend this event last year?

Eek--Should we meet on the beach or in the hotel? Your call.

Annie--Is this your official AskMemzy question? In that case: Winter hair,...meet Hawaii....Hawaii,...meet winter hair. Now let's hit the beach!!

Jonesy--Yes, I can answer that. Those cement cocoons are actually aliens awaiting their signal to hatch and take over the earth.

Kristi--Good to know, on all accounts.

Landee--I'd like to see that list pleasekthanks. There was no significance to the two diff hats. Aunt Visor had one on him in the beginning and decided partway through it was time for a wardrobe change. Haven't you people seen awards shows? (AV you can correct me if I'm wrong). And Nick's girlie wearing the fuzzy boots, unbelievably, AskMemzy cannot answer.

Katie--Considering your cheapness and the weirdness of actually owning a Redbox movie with that grodie case and all,....I'd say return it. Like, now.

Stands--WHA?!! It runs in the fam?! Speechless. Madonna has four minutes to save the world.....from herself. She left that part out because it didn't fit in with the 8 count beat that JT laid down. And it hasn't worked. A for effort tho. And I have YET to meet the "girl couple" on my game. I think you are imagining things. Do they "spa" together? And yes, I LOVE my hair. Never been this dark before. Ever.

Hot Pants--yes, yes I am. WHY?

Emily--I actually didn't have him cut the hair at all. I think it just looks so diff from the color. Hawaii trip details coming up shortly.

Jespy--splainin, splainin. And I will answer your question with a question of my own. You have winter hair now and why don't you think it looks hawt like I do?

Krissy said...

Love the new hair and can't wait to hear about this Hawaii trip.
What island are you going to? (<--that will be my askmemzy question for the day)

Memzy said...

Krissy--We are going to Maui. Lahaina/Kaanapali. Where did you go last time?

Krissy said...

We went to Kaanapali-we stayed at the Marriott there on the boardwalk. SOOO FUN! Have a great time and I can't wait to hear all about it when you get back!
