To play along, click on this link. 1. Your thoughts on truck drivers? My dad drove a truck, and my brother, and my brother-in-law. I think it's a difficult job, and with fuel costs, it's not the most efficient way of transporting merchandise. I used to think truck drivers were the best and most courteous drivers on the road. I believe that is still true of most of them.
2. Did you hear Michelle Duggar is pregnant for the 15th time? (but that will be kid #19 if you lost count....) Ironic, isn't it? How some women are born so incredibly fertile. What I would wonder is, does she really feel that she has enough of EVERYTHING to go around, and then enough left over for one more baby. I mean, even if you can handle it financially, how do you give everyone of your children all the attention they need when you have so many?
3. Have you ever done something to hurt someone intentionally... just for the sole purpose of hurting them because you thought they deserved it? Maybe a paybacks a bitch sort of thing? Life has taught me that anger and resentment are bitter and destructive things. They don't help anyone heal, they just cause more sadness.
4. Is there anyone in your life that when you go to their place of residence, you just walk in without bother knocking? Does anyone just walk into your house without knocking? At my mom's house, of course, and my mother-in-law's house, I walk in without knocking. But nobody does that at my house. It's kind of a kid thing, so I suppose when Gregg and I have our own child, he/she will do that. I certainly hope so anyway.
5. Whats in the trunk of your car? Do you even have a clue? I know exactly what is in the trunk of my little car. That's because I'm so proud of our new little Miata, that I try really hard to keep it nice and clean. Right now, there are five books in the trunk that I've been intending to drop off at the thrift store, since we've both read them and they were just taking up room on the small bookshelf in the den. The one I finally cleaned last weekend!
6. When you go to a family holiday get together (such as Christmas or Thanksgiving), about how many people are there? It depends on the side of the family, but usually at least 8, and sometimes as many as 40. I love big families, doesn't everyone?
7. What is in your kitchen sink right at this very moment? Absolutely nothing, I just can't stand to leave dishes in the sink, it makes it not fun to come home after work.
8. You go to a store to buy an expensive item... say $150. You pick up that item and a couple other this n' thats. You get to the register and the expensive item rings up at $40. The cashier doesn't seem to notice and tells you your total. Do you go with what they say and pay it or do you question the price difference? You know you would question it if your $40 item rang up at $150.... Honestly, I probably wouldn't say a thing. Not proud to say that, but I work a lot harder for my money than Wal-Mart does.
9. Do you fold your underwear or do you just toss it in a drawer? It's always folded neatly, and thanks to the cool drawer dividers I got from Ikea, it always stays that way.
10. There is a Harley-Davidson giveaway. Chances are $100 and they are only selling 250 tickets. Do you buy one? My hubby might, but I don't ride on the street, only on the dirt.
11. Who is your favorite Disney character? Thumper from Bambi. That was the first book I read by the way. I must have been six or so and that book made me cry like crazy, but I loved it.
12. It's September - most of the weekly sitcoms/dramas are starting new seasons again. Which one are you most looking forward to? I can't wait for Lost to come back. That's a great show, even if it's pretty unbelievable most of the time. This will be the final season, so I'm sure we'll finally get some resolution.
13. You are at a grocery store and are on your way out to your car with your cart full of grocery bags. On your way to your car you see a black kitten in an empty cart. What do you do? I'm allergic to cats, so I wouldn't go pick it up. Instead, I'd make the store manager aware and make sure he/she was going to do something about it.
14. Is there anything that you do for a hobby that you are asked to do for friends/family that most people would hire a professional to do? (example: cake decorating, fixing cars....) Wow, come to think of it, I don't really have anything like that. Most of the others in my family do though. My sister does internet stuff, including web design. My brother is the ultimate handy man. If you need it fixed, he's the guy. I call him all the time to ask how to do this or that. My mom makes the most wonderful quilts you would ever want. She could sell them for lots of money, but she only makes them for the family. My aunt decorates beautiful cakes. I suppose the only thing I do really well, that people would pay for is kids. I can do almost anything with a kid, from cheering up a cranky one, to helping a shy one make friends.
15. Are we there yet? Well, that's just a matter of perspective. I mean, we're always somewhere, so it depends where you're wanting to be that determines if you're there or not.
