Five Question Friday-Link up and play along!
1. Thunder storms- love them or hate them?
Love them, actually live for them and if they are at night even better. A good storm makes me want to break out in song:
Well, I love a rainy night
I love a rainy night
I love to hear the thunder
Watch the lightning
When it lights up the sky
You know it makes me feel good
I love a rainy night
I love to hear the thunder
Watch the lightning
When it lights up the sky
You know it makes me feel good
Phew! Glad I got that out of my system, never was a big Eddie Rabbitt fan, but like this song. I have this whole storm ritual, I want everyone home, something cooked to eat or at the very least snacks available or fast food brought in (I am quite sure the local chinese delivery thinks I only eat on days we have storm warnings), turn my phone off so my ex mother in law can't call every five minutes to see if we have met an untimely death due to the storm (it may be wishful thinking on her part, I can't be sure), the sofa, a couple of pillows, the big screen tv complete with dvr recordings (of course), my dogs snuggled with me (how sad I would rather snuggle a pug than a damn man at this junction in my life, or smart, two ways to look at it) and an extra dose of Klonopin (this is non negotiable on anyday let alone a stormy day or night).
2. Do your kids get back to school clothes
They are home schooled so do new pajamas count? I kid, I kid! Not about the homeschooling part but I do buy them actual clothing as they do have a life outside the home as that is the only sanity I get. I do however get new clothes for them around the same time all the public school kids get them, it gives them something to talk to their friends about who are about 50% public and 50% home school based and kind of gets them in the school spirit. They both say considering I am harder than any teacher they ever had in public school they need some kind of compensation. I do however refuse to go with them, they are finally old enough to just hand the money to them and say go pick out some clothes. That way I don't have to watch all the people around them turn up their nose and wonder what that horrible odor emanating from their bodies is. I have discovered it is rare that people who do not have teenagers actually recognize the life force giving scent of AXE.
3. Do you golf? Do you watch it?
I only watched golf several years ago when dating a golf pro. I had ulterior motives in mind, trust me it was not a love for the game. I find myself actually a little embarrassed for most golfers. Who dresses these men?
4. Showers or baths?
I usually prefer a bath. I have fibromyalgia and Lupus so the soak in the hot water in a jetted tub helps ease the pain. Plus I love the new bubble baths that are safe to use in jetted tubs, you get the best of both worlds. A good soak, jetted tub to ease the aches, bubbles and always a candle to read my book by. When I find the muscular naked man to feed me grapes or strawberries while all this is going on it will be the perfect set up and I most likely would lose the need to blog.
5. What's the strangest meal you ever ate?
Some concoction a church member made for an after church dinner. Do you know how hard it is to spit something out while violently gagging without being seen?
Yes, I do know exactly how hard #5 is. Harder yet to swallow!
ReplyDeleteI sang right along with you even though it isn't storming. I too love storms.
ReplyDeleteLove the storm thing with everybody accounted for oh it is soothing the rain and thunder.
ReplyDeleteI hate golf I wasn't even able to pretend thru it for good sex (in my single yrs.) golf last forever and well sex last for??? So yep he got kicked to the curb and chalked up as a booty call in the off season of golf or maybe during a thunderstorm???hmm OH well I hate golf LOL
I love that Eddie Rabbitt song...I feel like I'm 12 again...did I just age myself?
ReplyDeletemmmhm.
ReplyDeleteI love the rainy nights! :) Love that song.
Can I come over and do a double bubble bath and read my book? Because seriously, that sounds like heaven! I don't even care if there's bathing suits, nothing, whatever. I just want to have the bubbles, candles and books!!! :)
