Lucky me, I've been tagged. Here goes:
Two names you go by: It's hard to make a nickname out of Emma. I do get called Em, and in Grade 5 or so, we made nicknames using chocolate bar names. I was M&M due to the m's in Emma and my last name starting with M. Today, 3 people call me Mummy and most others call me Emma.
Two parts of your heritage: Irish on my dad's side, English on my mum's.
Two things that scare you: Spiders and horror movies. I had to ask William because I couldn't think of anything!
Two of your everyday essentials: My debit card (when there's money in the bank), a hug and an "aaahhh" from Saoirse.
Two things you are wearing right now: What an odd question. An Old Navy long sleeved shirt and a pair of jeans.
Two things you want in a relationship: honesty and acceptance.
Two truths: I am not very accepting of who I am and some days, I really am a terrible mother.
Two of your favourite hobbies: Reading and stamping. Yep, I'm a loser.
Two things I want really badly: For William to be able to live and work in Canada. And a mini van.
Two places I want to go on vacation: Ireland (was there any doubt?) and Scotland. Scotland is the only part of the British Isles I have never been to, which is very sad considering I spent almost every holiday of my life in the place just south of it. I suppose I should have said Australia, but you know, the spiders.
Two things I want to do before I die: Attend the weddings of my children (this includes the possibility of one of them marrying someone of the same sex) and travel across Canada.
Two ways I am sterotypically a "chick": What is a sterotypical chick anyway? Let's see...I cry at Hallmark commercials. I cry alot actually. What else? I have no idea. Oooohhhh, I talk too much. Is that a girl thing?
Two things I am thinking right now: That I must soon go to bed. And that if the Conservatives win I am liable to have a breakdown.
Two people to tag: Well, Eric's out since he tagged me and I think people may be sick of being tagged by moi. I know UI said something negative about memes so just for that I will tag him. And how's about whoever else wants to.

Most excellent answers, Em.
You know, the way you constantly feel as though you're a terrible mother signifies that you care. A truly terrible mother wouldn't give a damn whether she was bad or not. ^_^
If the Conservatives win up there I won't have anywhere to flee to when they turn the US into a police state. Maybe we can both flee to Edinburgh.
'Two ways I am sterotypically a "chick'
I don't know if I can do this one!
Heritage:
Polish on my mother's side
English on my father's side
Daily Requirements:
Something funny
Something good to eat
Two things I'm wearing:
Green watch cap (it's cold in this apartment!)
Cat in my lap (if that doesn't count, then a "Ducks Unlimited" sweatshirt
Two things you want in a relationship
Time to work, time to sleep, time to write
(I know that's three things, I guess I'm kind of demanding)
Two truths
I got pushed around a lot in school as a kid, and it shaped who I am in ways I am only now starting to understand (both for the better and for the worse)
I'm a show-off
Favorite Hobbies
Reading, writing
Two places to go on vacation
Prague (just always sounded like a fun city) Ireland (after reading 'round Ireland with a fridge after you mentioned it on your blog)
Two things I want to do before I die.
I would like to be alive when (if) life is discovered on another planet. I would like to watch the space-shuttle take off (I guess I better hurry). I would like to see something I've written in print.
Two ways I am sterotypically a "chick" -- okay, for me, how about two ways I am sterotypically a "mensch" (as my mom would say)
I expect my woman stay out of harm's way and let me deal with it if there's trouble.
I try not to care too much about what other people think of me.
Two things I am thinking right now.
"I seem to spend more time commenting on other blogs than posting on my own blog"
"I've got to do some laundry if I'm going to have clean underwear next week"
UI, that's a piss poor excuse.
Bliss, Was that not a great book? I am rereading it during my slow moments at work. Makes me laugh.
