red monkey at your service...

OK - first off, I want to say that I realize I have been "tagged" before and not responded - in fact I probably pretended that I didn't even see the post BUT, in my defense, this particular "name" tag is much easier than telling you 46 "quirky" things about myself - I am not really that quirky! So if you are not too offended and realize that it isn't about who I love more (or less) than read on my friends (we are still friends - right?)
1. ROCKSTAR NAME : (first pet, current car)
my family all knows that I have a very poor memory, especially when it comes to my own life - I have no clue what my first pet's name was - so, I will go with the last...
Muffin Odyssey

2. GANGSTA NAME: (favorite ice cream flavor, favorite shoe)
Mocha Flop

3. "FLY Guy/Girl" NAME: (first initial of first name, first 3 letters of last name)
Drya

4. DETECTIVE NAME: (favorite color, favorite animal)
Red Monkey (don't think I want to know what mysteries the Red Monkey is solving!)

5. SOAP OPERA NAME: (middle name, city where you were born)

I have no middle name so I will just use the last half of my first name or the first half - depending on how you see it (I guess I am a glass half empty sorta gal - never realized that before!)...
De Chula Vista (sounds like a villain - perfect!)

6. STAR WARS NAME: (first 3 letters of your last name, first 2 of your first)
Ryade (I kinda like that - if any of you want to name your kid after me feel free to use it - as long as you don't tell them that it is a star wars name!)

7. SUPERHERO NAME: ("The" + 2nd favorite color, favorite drink)
The Green Diet Cherry Pepsi?

8. NASCAR NAME: (the first names of your grandfathers)
Walter Wade

9. WITNESS PROTECTION NAME: (mom & dad's middle names)

Gene Gray

10. TV WEATHER ANCHOR NAME: (your 6th grade teacher's last name, a major city that starts with the same letter)

back to that memory thing - I don't even remember the school's name back in 6th grade! I will go with favorite HS teacher instead!
Petroni Pasadena

11. SPY NAME: (your favorite season/holiday, flower)
Summer Snapdragon

12. CARTOON NAME: (favorite fruit, article of clothing you're wearing right now + "ie")

Peach Shortie

13. HIPPY NAME: (what you ate for breakfast, your favorite tree)

Bagel Oak

14. ROCKSTAR TOUR NAME: ("The" + your favorite hobby/craft, favorite weather element + "Tour")
The Blogging Sun Tour

15. CELEBRITY COUPLE NAME: (half of your name, half of your significant other's name, mixed together in whichever order sounds best)
DELL or BIDE (I guess we need more letters in our names to make that a bit cooler! good thing I can't sing or act!)
Now personally, I think DEDE RYAN is a pretty cool name - sounds like a romance novelist or ice skater (I actually had a boyfriend once who told me "Dede" sounded like an "old lady smoking in the bowling alley" name - wonder what ever happened to him?) anyhoo - this is Dede Ryan signing off...
OH WAIT - now that I have actually completed a "tag" I get to spread the joy - Soooo, I tag Kristin, Sara, and Jodi (all of whom haven't posted this week - no more excuses girls!)
