Saturday 9: Baby, It's Cold Outside

Link up here if you're playing along today!

1) How cold is it where you are? 

 

It's not! Right now, at 6:40 AM, it's 75ºF, and we'll get warmer...

2) This familiar song was introduced in a 1949 film called Neptune's Daughter. (watch a clip here). Name another movie song.

 

"Under the Sea" from The Little Mermaid is the first thing to pop into my brain.

3) Who was the last person to call you "baby?" 

 

Hubs, I'm sure. It's rare for him to call me Melanie.

4) This time of year is important to college football fans. Have you watched/will you watch any bowl games? 

 

I would have watched my 'Canes play in their bowl game if I could, and the bigger bowl games, too, but we don't have TV service.

5)  Are you sad to see the holiday decorations begin to slowly disappear? Or do you think they should all come down right away?

We haven't yet taken ours down, but that will probably happen by New Year's Day. It doesn't make me sad, though I think they're fun and beautiful.

 

6) Did you tell the truth about your weight on your driver's license, or did you shave off a pound or two?

 

I told the truth, though I shaved off some weight the last time I donated blood! ;)

7) Crazy Sam swears that the Echinacea she takes every morning keeps her healthy. Her boyfriend tells her she's wasting her money. Do you take any herbal supplements? 

I take my vitamins, but I haven't taken anything herballish since my college days. They never helped me.

 

8) The average restaurant in the US tip is 18%. Are you a generous tipper?

 

I usually tip between 15-20% depending on service.

9) This is the last Saturday 9 of 2013. Do you know the lyrics to "Auld Lang Syne?"

 

Nope. I know those three words, and that's about it!

 

Happy New Year, 9-ers!

 

Fin.
