Band on the Run
Welcome to Saturday: 9. What we've committed to our readers is that we will post 9 questions every Saturday. Sometimes the post will have a theme, and at other times the questions will be totally unrelated. Those weeks we do "random questions," so-to-speak. We encourage you to visit other participants posts and leave a comment. Because we don't have any rules, it is your choice. We hate rules. We love memes, however, and here is today's meme!
1) This song is about a band of musicians that escapes on an adventure. Do you consider yourself spontaneous and adventurous?
Maybe when I was younger but not so much anymore.
2) Paul McCartney and Wings traveled all the way to Lagos, Nigeria, to record Band on the Run. That's a long, long way from London. What's the farthest from home you've ever been?

Mexico
3) Wings featured Linda McCartney on keyboards. Paul said that when Linda died, after almost 30 years together, he lost the love of his life. Who is the love of your life? Or have you yet to meet him/her?
My husband, Lloyd. We've been together for 13 years, we're coming up on 9 years of marriage and every day I feel luckier and more blessed than the day before. <3
4) Paul has said he's very proud of Band on the Run, his most successful post-Beatles album. Brag a little. Tell us something you're proud of.

I'm proud that my husband and I are doing our best to raise polite, thoughtful, respectful children and I think we're doing a decent job :)
5) Paul's birth certificate reads "James Paul McCartney." He's named for his father, Jim. Are you named after anyone?
No
6) Paul enjoys oil painting in his spare time. What's one of your hobbies?
Crocheting
7) 20 Forthlin Road, Paul McCartney's boyhood home, has been turned into a museum by the British government. It's a modest 2 bedroom cottage, with a drainpipe that Paul used to climb to sneak in after curfew. How would you describe your childhood home?

Filled with four rambunctious kids.
8) Paul is 5'11". How tall are you?

5'2"
9) Actor Christopher Lee is on the album cover. He played Dracula in a series of movies in the 1950s and 1960s. Who is your favorite vampire?
I'm not into vampires so I don't have a favorite. Maybe Count Chocula? :)
Count Chocula totally counts! He got more votes this week than the Twilight vampires! Crocheting looks so relaxing. I bet choosing the designs and colors is a wonderful way to express your creativity, too.
