Happy Birthday, Lil Bro! I'm sorry I neglected to do this on your actual day! You are (the best...shhhhh, don't tell the others) 1/3 of the bestest brothers a girl could ever have! Hope your day was as fabulous as you are!

Speaking of birthdays...today would have been Verd's 47th birthday, and it is also the Mr.'s sister's birthday. To help her celebrate and to celebrate the birth of a wonderful man that was taken way too soon (grief post coming up...), we are hangin' with the Mr.'s fam tonight!

1. If you knew your best friend's spouse was cheating on her or him, would you tell her (him)?

Ugh. This is a hard one.

'Cuz, you know how sometimes it's the messenger that gets shot? Yeah, I dunno.

I'd really have to contemplate this one. Not because I would want to be deceitful, but because I would have to truly determine if it were my place to tell her.

If I think about what I would want done, yes, I would want my best friend to tell me. So, with that said, I think I would tell her.

Ugh. Maybe not. I hate hurting people. I never, ever, ever repeat mean/nasty/bad things I hear about my loved ones because I don't want to hurt them. And, what's the purpose of telling someone something hurtful?

What's the gain?

Who benefits from hearing negative things about themselves? (And, I'm not talking constructive critiscism...I'm talking downright negatives.)

Whoa. Deep question.

2. Soda in a can or a bottle?

Siiiiiggggghhhhhh...Pam, Pam, Pam. Pop. It's POP, not soda. How many times must I tell you, dear friend? ;)

Actually, I choose "none of the above".

My favorite form of POP is fountain POP. Specifically, ice cold Coke from McDonald's.

Yum.

Great. Now I want one.

3. What do you wash first, hair or body?

Dude, I'm totally a hair first, kinda girl.

I've got a lot of hair, so I wash it and get quite the lather going, then while I'm rinsing, I start on the ol' bod.

Head to toe, ending with my face and my Clarisonic!

Wow. Don't you feel so enlightened knowing that about me?!

Awkward. *blushes*

Moving on...

4. What advice would you give to any new mama?

Throw away your clock!!!

Ain't nothing good ever come from clock watchin'! Or something.

Seriously, sweet young mother, toss the clock. Watch your baby instead! If he acts hungry, feed him (even if it's only been an hour)...except in those early days. Every two hour feedings. WAKE THE BABY! You'll be happier at night.

Oh, and most of all...enjoy it.

Savor it.

Soak it in.

Inhale every. single. second.

Don't rush the milestones.

Take it from me, the lady who put her newborn baby boy to sleep one night, and when she woke up, he was 15 and had a girlfriend and drove a car and had a job.

*sniffle*

5. What is your best hangover remedy?

Once upon a time, when I did stupid things like drink entire bottles of Captain Morgan (Wait. Clarification...not entire bottleS. No plural. Did it once. That was enough. Forever and ever amen. I hate than damn Captain...) I had a fool proof hangover remedy.

That is, once I could stop vomiting long enough to get some. (Yes, I am NOT a "good drinker"...is there such a thing?)

My remedy?

KFC mashed potatoes and gravy.

Worked everytime.

However...the tides have changed. Now, if I'm feelin' punk after a night of fun (which happens, what...once every 2-5 years?!), I want (see above answer to #2) an ice cold Coke and some fries from McDonald's.

Please and thank you!

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

Hope you all have wonderful weekends! I'm a workin' girl this weekend. Wait. Er...that sounds SOOOOO wrong! I mean, I have to work this weekend. You know, at my L&D gig.

Phew. Glad we cleared that up! ;)
