Wee Bit Wednesday!

Let me just say THANK YOU to Leigh Ashley for posting these questions early!!! I was just sitting here looking for some blogspiration and decided to check her blog just in case she posted the questions and she had! Yay!!

I haven't done a Wee Bit in a while. I've missed it!

{one} What's your guilty pleasure TV show?
This is tough one. I used to watch tv all the time but not so much anymore. The one show I have to watch is Pretty Little Liars, but I don't think this would qualify as a guilty pleasure show. It's way too acceptable for that. :) Guilty pleasure - hmmm, probably The Real Housewives shows.

{two} Ears pierced on men: yes or no?
Ew. Noway.

{three} Do you have dish or comcast? 
What's comcast? I don't have either. We used to have cable, but we cancelled that.

{four} What's your favorite current fashion trend?
Toms. I'm buying the glitters next.

{five} If you could learn to do anything, money not being an issue, what would it be?
Sing. I would love, love, love to not be tone deaf learn how to sing. I think I may need a new voice and ears for this though.

{six} Red or white wine?
Neither. I don't like wine.

{seven} What type of food is your favorite? (ex. Italian, Mexican, etc.)
Italian. I love me some pasta and pizza!

{eight} hp or mac?
Oh my gosh. I'll give you 2 guesses and the 1st one doesn't count. MAC. If you saw my original blog design and got this wrong then shame on you! I am obsessed with apple computers. We have 3 in our house. Anyone who doesn't like macs just hasn't been properly introduced!

{nine} What color is your bedroom?
Yellow. Bleh. Since when do builders use yellow as a standard color? Shouldn't it be tan? I'm currently accepting volunteers to re-paint my bedroom a more acceptable color.

{ten} What's your favorite form of exercise?
Lying on the couch and lifting my legs to head twice.

No seriously. Favorite and exercise should never be paired. Oxymoron if you ask me.

Finally halfway through the week! Hurry up Friday!!

The one where I talk about myself.

 :) I just LOVE that.

I'm linking up with Leigh Ashley today so I can talk about myself some more. You know you like it.




{one} Have you ever been stuck in an elevator?
No, thank goodness! Sounds horrifying.

{two} Have you ever ridden on an elephant?
No. :( I had the chance last year at the fair, but I let Justin take Madi instead of me. They had lots of fun!

{three} Have you ever met a well known celebrity?
I have not. I have not even met an not-so-well-known celebrity. I live an exciting life.

{four} Do you have any food allergies?
Negative. I'm running out of new ways to say "no."

{five} Do you know how to sew?
Next question.
Kidding. I cannot sew. Not even a button. I think I made a bad grade in that class.

{six} Did you get allowance when you were young?
We did sometimes. It was very inconsistant. It was more like if we'd already done our share of chores and then mom wanted something else done, then we'd get paid. That was nice. I wish I got an allowance now. Oh or if we were bad - you know, "I'm taking your allowance away if you do that again!" ...Um, ok? I don't get one anyway!

{seven} How often do you fill up your gas tank?
UGH. Like every 4-5 days usually. I filled up Friday and just filled up again today so that's 6 days, but we also didn't go anywhere Saturday and barely on Sunday. Driving to Justin's work and then back to my work twice a day is eating up my gas!! I think Leigh Ashley's answer was every 4-6 WEEKS?! I'm hoping that was a typo, otherwise I want to know what on earth she drives!!

{eight} Have you ever been stung by a jelly fish?
Yes. Why do I get to say yes to the painful question? Those things HURT. I got stung on my stomach and my back. That was a long time ago; I don't even remember how old I was. I think I was in my teens.

{nine} Have you ever been robbed?
Nope. That's a scary thought. I hope none of you have either!!

{ten} What is the worst hair cut you've ever had?
Worst? Ever? I have a handful to chose from. Like that time that my mom's friend cut my hair past my ears and I was NOT five. More like 14. Or that time that I was 4 and had a semi-mullet. Yeah one of those times. No you are not getting a picture.


Have a beautiful day, hopefully you're not stuck in a building like I am!

Wee Bit of Me Wednesday & WILW!

Happy Wednesday!  I'm linking up with Leigh Ashley!






{one} Have you ever fainted?
Yep, twice. I call it blacking out. Is that the same thing? Both times it happened I was at Carowinds (an amusement park). The first time it happened Carrie & I were in line to get something to eat (a bit too late apparently) and I started feeling weak and then couldn't see and then passed out. Luckily, Carrie caught me. First Aid came and made a big scene and asked if I wanted to go lay down. I said, heck no, ate my food and then went bungee swinging. :)

The second time I was in line to ride a roller coaster with Justin and started seeing black spots (I knew what that meant) and told J I didn't think I should go on the ride. He knew something was up because I never back down from a roller coaster. As soon as I said that everything went black, but he kept trying to get me to walk out of the line. He didn't realize I really couldn't see, then I passed out and he caught me right before I fell down 2 flights of stairs!! This really nice lady helped us and bought me a water (you know they were like $5 there too). The staff didn't even ask if I was ok! Thank goodness for nice people!

Now every time we go to Carowinds my friends check on me constantly and make me drink a lot of water!

{two} What is your favorite casino game?
I've never been to a casino and don't really even like card games, but I think I'd pick black jack. Simply because I think it's the only game I'd understand.

{three} Do you have a good sense of direction?
Everyone who knows me is laughing hysterical right now. I have the WORST sense of direction ever. I get lost even when I have my GPS on. Justin is even worse than me with directions so going out of town is always a headache an adventure.

{four} Laptop or desktop?
We have both but I prefer laptops. I love being able to sit on the couch or my bed instead of being chained to a desk.

{five} What is your go-to hair style when having a bad hair day?
A low ponytail, even though I know it's not flattering. Putting my hair in a high ponytail stresses me out and makes my arms hurt. I'm too picky about it!

{six} Do you read the newspaper on a daily basis?
Um. I do not. I do not read the newspaper on a weekly or monthly basis either. Shame, I know.

{seven} Do you have a favorite celebrity chef?
No I don't. I have a favorite celebrity chef that I love to hate. Well, not hate. That's harsh. I like watching Rachael Ray and Giada De Laurentis even though they both get on my nerves. Rachael's recipes are usually good but just her phrases drive me nuts sometimes and the way Giada pronounces "spaghetti" and other "Italian" words in her Italian accent drive me nuts. You either have an accent or you don't.

{eight} What TV show would you like to make a guest appearance on?
It would be The Gilmore Girls, but since that is off the air I pick Pretty Little Liars. I absolutely love this show. I can't wait for the new season to start!!

{nine} Do you have satellite radio in your car?
Nope. I don't think I'd use it. I'm not a big radio person.

{ten} What was the last movie that made you cry?
Oh goodness, I have no idea. I really don't cry in movies very often.


Also, I want to link up for What I'm Loving Wednesday too, because there is just something I'm OBSESSING over right now.

These monogram iPhone cases. I want. I need. I am drooling...

found here

And choking - have you seen the price? They are expensive, but lucky for all us moms, there is a special day coming up. I know what I'm asking for! :)

I've noticed I have quite a few new followers and I just want to say Hi! Please introduce yourself; I love to hear from y'all!!

Wee Bit of Me Wednesday

Time to do a little Wee Bit of Me Wednesday!



{one} What is one food that, as an adult you love, but as a child you said you'd never touch?

Well, I wouldn't say I love it but I used to hate turkey and now I like it. When I was a kid I loved ham and now I can't stand it! (Unless it's like real ham, not the sandwich meat - gross!)

{two} Did you go to college? If yes, what was your major?

Yes I did! I went to Columbia College (Go Koalas!). I majored in English. What did I plan on doing with that degree? No clue. I work in the insurance field now. Ha! But, if anyone needs to know about 19th century literature, I'm your girl!

{three} What's the most wild animal you've seen in real life (not counting the zoo)?

A moose! Lots of moose - when I was in Alaska of course! I desperately wanted to see a bear (from the car, NOT while I was out hiking) but never did. Husband saw at least three.

{four} Have you ever been to a fortune teller?

No I haven't and I do not want to. I think they are silly. You see them on tv asking people what their names are and when their birthdays are. Ummm, you're the fortune teller! You tell me! Needless to say, I do not believe in that stuff.

{five} Can you juggle?

Sigh. I cannot. I wish I could. That'd be a pretty cool talent to have. It'd be a pretty cool talent to just be able to catch a ball. I can't do that either.

{six} Hardwood floors or carpet?

Carpet please! I think hardwoods are pretty, but I hate to sweep and mop. I LOVE vacuuming.

{seven} Is it called "soda" or "pop"?

I have several answers/comments to this question:

(a) I do not say soda OR pop. Soda is just weird and pop is what Madi calls her grandpa. When people use the word pop for COKE it drives me crazy!!

(b) I call it coke (see above). Everything is coke. "Hey, can you hand me a coke?" "Sure, what kind?" "Sprite." See? I think that's a Southern thing.

(c) Just want to emphasize that I hate the word pop, for soda. Okay, I'm good now. :)

{eight} What was your first car?

Aww my first car. How I loved that car! It was a 2002 Toyota Echo, black of course! I had it for such a short time though. My step-dad bought it for me brand new, because he's awesome like that. Deal was that I had to pay him a set amount a month for it and pay my insurance. I paid my insurance, but being the trusty teen that I was I didn't pay him monthly so my mom and him sold it. :( They warned me first, but I was irresponsible to say the least and one day when I came home it was gone!!!! Taught me a lesson too. I didn't have a car for the rest of senior year of high school all the way until my junior year of college!!!! It was torture!

{nine} What is the most decadent dessert you've ever eaten?

Oh wow. Hm. I'm not one for eating decadent things. I'm pretty simple. Maybe just a snazzy looking key lime pie from Ruth's Chris?! Not very exciting, I know. It was good, but not as good as Hyman's key lime. Nothing beats that!

{ten} How often do you rearrange your furniture?

How about never? I don't! I was thinking about that the other day actually. I think most women rearrange their furniture quite often, or maybe I just made that up. Anyway, I really don't ever move it around. Justin wants to do that more than I do and it usually irritates me. I don't like change!

Woot. I love q&a's. And now I really want some Hyman's key lime pie. Maybe in a month. :)
