Five Question Friday! 2/5/10

Hey howdy ho, my friends!!

I'm having a love/hate relationship with this Friday...love it 'cuz (obviously) it's Friday...hate it 'cuz it's my weekend to work...which means my family will be having loads of fun family time.

Without me.

(Excuse me please, while I grab a tissue...*sob*!!)

But, anywho...let's get started!

Rules for 5QF: Copy the following questions to your blog post, paste them, answer them, c'mon back and grab the MckLinky code (if you'd like), and then link up!! Easy peasy! I would also be very appreciative if you'd link back to me, Mama M.!

If you don't have a blog, feel free to jump in on the comments along the way! I'd love to hear your answers too!

Okay, let's get down to business!!

Questions for Friday, 2/5/10: (Thanks to Pam, Christine, Liz, Tara, and Renee for their question suggestions! Wanna be linked in a future 5QF? Just c'mon over here, to my community, and offer up your best questions!)

1. What are you most afraid of?

2. Do you use a flat iron or curling iron?

3. Hands-free or phone to the ear?

4. Do you have a matching bedroom set?

5. Do you believe in the paranormal?

--------------------------------------------

1. What are you most afraid of?

Hmmm...besides yucky bugs of all sorts and spinny rides?

Death.

I am so incredibly terrified of dying and leaving my children. I can't even bring myself to get a will going (which, I know...totally is in opposition to my fear...you'd think I'd be all planned.)

I have made Mr. Wonderful pledge, promise, vow, swear under oath, give the scout's honor, pinkie swear and sign his name in blood that he will not let our children forget me, should I die!

Obsessive much?

Yes.

I think I need help.

;)

2. Do you use a flat iron or curling iron?

Well...now that I'm sportin' "Hot Mom Hair", I'm a flat iron girl...but, back in the day, when I had long hair, I was a curling iron girl...just couldn't get the job done with a flat one!

And you know what?

I think whoever invented flat irons ranks right up there with the dude(ette) that invented the epidural (have never had one, but hear they're nice...)...I couldn't live without my flat iron like some ladies can't live without their epidurals.

Amen.

And thank you.

3. Hands-free or phone to the ear?

Phone to the ear.

And, I have this weird quirk/fear. If I'm passing a police officer, I always try to act non-chalant and hide it...like he/she can't tell that I'm jabbering away on my phone!

I'm afraid they'll pull me over, send my kids to foster care and throw me in the clink for talking on my phone.

And, yes...I'm also slightly afraid of the whole "cell signal/brain tumor" theory.

But it doesn't stop me.

Sometimes...I scare myself with my weirdness.

4. Do you have a matching bedroom set?

Remember this post?

Nope. No matching furniture here.

Still living life sans headboard with a mismatched set of cheapo dressers that are old, but still in one piece...kinda. The Mr.'s is coming apart in the back. But we can't really see it.

Outta sight, outta mind baby!

And, since I blew a wad on M.A.C., looks like I'll be waiting a bit longer for that gorgeous set of heirloom Amish furniture.

But, dang!! I do love my new 'puter!!

5. Do you believe in the paranormal?

Hmmmm...interesting...yes and no.

And, I'm not sure that I can even really explain myself well, but I'll try.

I think I believe in the "idea" of ghosts.

I like "scary stuff"...I enjoy the occasional ghost story...and I get totally intrigued by stories like the Glensheen Mansion. Oooooh, gives me the shivers just a little bit!

And, the "Sixth Sense"? LOVED it! (Well...I'm a huge Bruce Willis fan...so, maybe that's why...but nonetheless...great flick!"

So...I totally didn't answer that either way...but, that's my story, and I'm stickin' to it!!

Okay..now it's YOUR turn! Can't wait to read whatcha'll hafta say!
