Do you know any couples that have been married for a very long time?
My grandparents were married over 50 years, but both are gone now. My father-in-law and his wife have been married over 35 years. Hubs and I just celebrated 15 years. Those are some of the longest-term marriages of which I'm aware.
What are you tired of people telling you?
"This too shall pass." I know it will, but in the meantime, I'm IN the situation, and THAT does not help. I hate trite clichés like that and the f***ing "Everything happens for a reason" that everyone loves to say. STOP SAYING THAT SH*T!
I can no longer enjoy ice cream, even froyo, or anything like that for some reason. But when I could, it was definitely chocolate with big, thick, hard chunks of peanut butter. Mmm... so good.
Do you have a little sister? What’s her name?
I am the little sister. I have a big sister, by a whopping 17 months, named Stacey. I also have a much-older half-sister, named Pamela, whom I've never met.
That was random. I like random. Anyway, I'd have to go back 10 years at least to answer this question, and my memory is not that good.
If the internet was not available right now, what would you do instead?
I have some lovely knitting to work on, because my 10yo is pestering me for the completed project. It will be hers...
Do you complain a lot?
I do. I'm aware of it, I try not to, and I hate that about myself, but I do. Hubs, on the other hand, rarely complains. And I complain about that!
Name a movie that your favorite actor is in.
Oh, gosh. I haven't seen a Matt Damon movie in ages, like maybe Ocean's Ten and Ocean's Eleven. I need to see more of that scrummy boy...
Do you like your toes?
Absolutely not. I do not have nice feet at all. My toes, like my feet overall, are short and stubby. And, by the way, I don't understand the whole French manicures on toes thing. Why is that a thing?!!
Would you rather go to an authentic haunted house or an ancient temple?
I'm definitely not into the haunted house thang. I vote for ancient temple, all the way, hands-down please!
Have you ever had champagne? Did you like it?
Of course I have. Lots. And I love it. I prefer sec or demi-secover brut, please.
Are there any seashells in your room?
Not in my room, but most assuredly in my daughters' room, you'll find shells.
What was the reason for the last time you went outside?
I had to take Hubs to the ER after he sliced his finger open with his knife. :/ He's still bleeding profusely over an hour later...
Do you like fruity or minty gum?
I rarely chew gum, but when I do, I prefer the fruity kind.
Are you looking forward to any day of this month?
PAYDAY!!! (It was Friday.)
What was the last graduation you attended?
Probably my own from college in '97. Obviously I don't attend them very often.
Do you rummage through the $5 movie bin at Walmart every time?
I have never done that. Ever.
What day of the week do you usually do laundry?
Um, every day. Like, EVERY. DAY.
Do you like using air fresheners?
I prefer to light scented candles and/or some oils (and no, I'm not an essential oils freak rep) over the aerosol fresheners.
Are your nails ever painted red?
Actually yes, all the time! Red is my color, y'all.
When you were a baby, did you have a favorite blanket?
Wish I'd had one like that! But yeah, I still have my blankie that my grandma crocheted for me. ♥
Ever been on a cruise?
I have been on ... (thinking) ... six? cruises. Not counting the scientific research ones.
Would you rather go to Alaska or Russia?
Well, I wouldn't mind seeing both, but I'd go to Alaska over Russia - in the summer, preferably!
Strawberries or bananas?
Strawberries are my favorite fruits, so... but bananas are close behind them!
Are you wearing socks?
No, and I hardly ever do unless I'm uncontrollably shivering from cold.
When’s the last time you went to the mall?
I think it was for a mystery shop? Definitely before Christmas. I think. I don't know. I *hate* malls!

Well, we've reached the end again. Thanks for stopping by!
