Five Question Friday! 7/13/12

Happy, happy, happy birthday to my favorite middle brother!! Hope your day is as wonderful as you are, Treehorn!


Oooooh, Friday the 13th. This calls for a scary movie night. Actually, we're on a hunt for "Big"...our local Walmart doesn't have it, where the heck would I find it? Pal and I were discussing The Pioneer Woman's Tom Hank's Movie Matchup and were recounting all the great Tom Hanks movies...

Then we got a hankerin' (ha, get it? HANKerin'? You know, Tom HANKS?! Dang...I crack myself up sometimes.) to watch "Big". Or "Forest Gump". Or maybe "Cast Away". And I was telling him how awesome Mr. Hanks was in "Philedelphia"...and then there's "Sleepless in Seattle"...


Anyway, gotta work again today. And then? Then we're takin' off on a "lo-cation"! (That's my version of "local vacation"...not really a "staycation" but not really a "vacation"...just close enough that we're, well, not too far away but not staying at home! Clever, huh?)


Let's get this party started.

1. What's your view on men wearing sandals (yay or nay)?

Flip flops? Yay.

Sandals? Nay.

The image of "men in sandals" that I have in my head is one of old, gray librarians on vacation wearing white crew socks pulled up mid shin and thos two strap velcro sandals.

You know, the ones with the strap across the toe area and one around the ankle/heel?

Not so attractive. But, a rugged pair of flip flops (wait...does "rugged" go with "flip flop"? Help out here...)? Fo sho.

2. What song do you love but are embarrassed to admit?

Don't laugh, kay?

No, seriously. You can't laugh.

Promise?

Okay then...I like...okay, don't laugh..."Call Me Maybe".

I KNOW!!! I'm ashamed to admit it. But, it's just so catchy, I can't help it.

Now, you forget I ever said that, okay?

3. What summer camp should they make for moms? 

I have the perfect camp...

Camp Iwannatakeanap

It would be great. Instead of crafts...naps. Instead of campfire songs...early bedtimes without having to put kids to sleep. Instead of dishes...more naps.

Dreamy.

4. What is the most romantic song? (Not necessarily your favorite or your wedding song...)

Elvis, baby. "Can't Help Falling in Love".

His voice. The lyrics (at least those of them that I know). The music.

What a perfect slow dance song.

And now, which song do you have stuck in your head?

Sorry. Could be worse...could be "The Song that Never Ends".

Oops. Sorry again. Have with that, now.

5. Do you have an embarrassing pregnancy story?

Hmmmmmmm...you know, the only real embarrasing pregnancy story I have is going into the hospital with Baby Girl, thinking (wishful thinking) that I was in labor. Wishful because I had been taken off work the week before and it was killing me that I was sitting at home using up maternity leave whilst the real reason for my maternity leave was still snug as a bug inside of me.

KILLED. ME.

Anyway, had some contractions. Went in. Petered out. Came home. With a baby in my belly still.

And why is this embarrassing? Well, my dear friends, remember...I am a labor nurse. I had already had 4 children at this point. I SHOULD HAVE KNOWN BETTER.

Embarrassing.

Have a fabulous weekend!
