Friday's feast No. 3

Appetizer
Do you consider yourself to be an optimist or a pessimist?
Well, I used to be an optimist, but Shawn says now I'm not. I just figure that if you're prepared for the worst, you won't get your feelings hurt or be disappointed. And who knows? You just may get good news, and who doesn't like good news?

Soup
What is your favorite color of ink to write with?
Depends what I'm writing. If I'm writing a check, I would like it to be disappearing ink, that way they get it to the bank and it doesn't go through. (just kidding!)
But if I'm grading a paper, I need a red ink pen so you can see your giant A+ grades easier at a glance.

Salad
How often do you get a manicure or pedicure? Do you do them yourself or go to a salon and pay for them?
I like to go to the salon once in the spring, so my toes look good for sandal weather. Then I try to keep them pretty on my own for the rest of the season. I do my own manicures. I tried doing my own acrylic overlays. They turned out okay, but it was a pain in the keister. And wearing them makes me feel claustrophobic. I don't like feeling like something is on my fingers.

Main Course
Have you ever won anything online? If so, what was it?
Well, does winning an auction on eBay count? I have never won anything free online. *sigh*

Dessert
In which room in your house do you keep your home computer?
We keep the computer in the classroom. It's too much of a hassle to lug it around, and it's too big to sit in my lap. But recently we got a wireless router to use with the laptop Shawn got from work, so occasionally I blog in the living room.

Friday's feast No. 2

Appetizer

When you drink soda/pop/coke, do you prefer to drink it from the bottle, a can, or after pouring it into a cup?

It really depends. I like my soda to be really cold, so I don't mind drinking it from a can, but after it starts to lose that straight-out-of-the-vending-machine chill, I pass it off on some unsuspecting soul. If I get my drink from a restaurant, I have to have a straw, because drinking from a cup makes me feel strangely claustrophobic. I know, I'm weird.

Soup
What television show are you willing to stay up late to watch?

I have been known to stay up and watch LOST after choir on Wednesday nights. And I love That 70's Show, but now that I have a DVR, I just record it and watch any old time.

Salad
Name one person, place, or thing you think of as brilliant.

This is a tough one. I think of my Dad usually, because he knows something about most everything. But today I'm going to say my nephew Brian. He has this great sense of humor that is top notch. (funny phrase, that.) Sometimes you don't even see it coming, and he has you laughing Dr. Pepper out your nose. (very cold Dr. Pepper!)

Main Course

Would you be willing to work 4 10-hour days instead of 5 8-hour days in order to save gas?

*SNORT* I am a stay at home Mom. I work 24 hour days, and who knows where the gas goes? But my hubby used to work 4 10-hour days, and we loved having him home on Fridays. Oh, the good old days!

Dessert

If you were a superhero, what would you call yourself?

Definitely not this!

Okay, Super Wonder Mom. Able to wipe noses and butts with a single motion. Faster than a speeding appetite, stronger than a full out temper tantrum.

Friday's Feast No. 1

Appetizer: Wii, Playstation or XBox?

We have a playstation which I never play. I don't get sitting in front of a screen only working out a few fingers.

{Note the irony that I'm rediculously somewhat addicted to blogging. ;D}


Soup: Would you ever go skydiving?

I was in a horrible parasailing accident when Hailey was two and Caleb had just turned one. Shawn and I were dunked in the drink and dragged behind the boat. If he hadn't warned me to take a breath just before impact, I might have drowned. So I think I'll pass, thank you!


Salad: Name a sequel that you think is better than the original movie.

Hmm, I can think of a few which were worse, (Legally Blonde being the ultimate) but I can't think of any better ones.


Main Course: Share your most wonderful birthday celebration.

I don't think you can top this one!


Dessert: If you dare, post a picture of yourself making a silly face.

Used to describe me...

My friend Tina always does the Friday's Feast, which I love, and aspire to do. But I always forget to do it before I read her blog, and I don't think I'm as clever as she is, so I haven't yet. But this week it asked for a five word sentence in which each word begins with the first letter of your name. Sounded kooky, so I'm giving it a try. Funny thing is, it sort of describes me. Well the first one, anyway. What, I'm tired!
