Writer Vixen wrote an interesting post about her top results when typing in her first name with needs and using "The Google" to see what popped out. She found her results to be almost like a psychic reading. Because I got put on call today with a honey-do list that is too long to finish, I decided to take a little break and see what happens.
First of all, it appears I am not the first Liz to do this, although I did not surmise at the outset that I would be. There were several lists posted from 2007 still floating out there. But here are the first fresh 10 I found that make any kind of sense:
- Liz needs a man. Ok, not the case, got one of those already who is a keeper, although he created a lengthy to-do list for me upon learning I didn't have to work today.
- Liz needs a Spring Break. Yes, this is true. It is still technically spring. I did have time off around Memorial Day, but my hubby went to work every day and I was home with the kids, a headache, a backache, and menstrual cramps. How bout someplace warm that serves adult beverages? And I don't mean a bar with broken A/C.
- Liz needs to devise a budget and stick to it ... um, yeah. Good advice. I need help with this one.
- Liz needs to increase her food intake to at least 2000 calories a day. No, although I haven't been eating much, my midsection doesn't seem to be getting any smaller. Never had trouble getting to 2000 either. Today I have had a cafe mocha with skim milk and half of a chocolate brownie.
- Liz needs some Anthropologie-style Apartment Therapy. If I was still in an apartment, then yes, I would need some therapy, especially after I spent a boatload on $158 handbag and $200 wallpaper. But it would all look great, which is a bonus. See #3.
- Liz needs a guitar player. Oooooh. Is that like #1? It's sounding fairly appealing right now, home alone, with my list and dirty laundry. He would have some nice dark eyes and strong arms and...
- Liz needs to stop bashing her left knee into things. My left knee is okay, thanks for your concern, my problem right now is my back and hips. Has to do with a little incident trying to move a 350-pound person with one leg, and no, I am not making that up.
- Liz needs to be removed from the scene, thought dead or just killed off in a mob hit and run. That is just disturbing. It's from Soapzone.
- Liz needs to spend time on the beauty pageant circuit before the GOP takes her as a serious candidate. (From the CNN political ticker, I shit you not.)
- Liz needs to know. That pretty much summarizes my life. My reason for selecting the books I read, the hobbies I participate in, the websites I visit. This is what I was looking for.

And Blue/Greg: You cracks me up.
I just got off the phone with my sister and she recommended continuing the experiment with "Liz wants..." and "Liz has..." When she Googled her own name she had a bunch of X-rated stuff come up.
Jeanette needs your nuts!
How did The Google know?
Surly - I thought you would like that one :)
Jeannette - I hope you get the nuts you're looking for!
and just for fun... a little "Liz wants" since I'm up late tonight:
Liz (Hurley) wants to turn the Taj Mahal pink (2005) Um, no.
Liz wants health care for all Americans (ideally)
Liz (Hurley again) wants to look like 'glowing goddess' for her big day! (2007)
Liz wants a puppy (maybe a little)
Liz wants to meet the doctor... (occupational hazard)
Liz wants back in.
Liz really wants chocolate ice cream right now (that is me talking, not The Google)
