Manic Monday for May 4th

mmlogo Manic Monday for May 4th

Which house­hold chore do you dis­like the most?

I dis­like them all, but the ones that really get me are laun­dry and dishes. It’s a never end­ing bat­tle. As soon as the kitchen is spot­less it’s time to cook a meal. As soon as every scrap of laun­dry is washed and folded it’s time to change into paja­mas or what­not. It’s not like wash­ing win­dows or scrub­bing a toi­let. With those, you’re good for at least a week.

What’s the best museum you’ve ever visited?

I haven’t seen many I guess. I really like all kids muse­ums. Hands on activ­i­ties rock!

It’s Star Wars Day today. I’ve never seen any of the Star Wars movies. What “com­mon” movies haven’t you seen?

I think I’ve got most oldies cov­ered. I don’t see many new ones, so I haven’t seen that Twi­light movie yet. {col­lec­tive gasp from the aduience} Yes, I know.

Three posts in one day?!

What’s your favorite beach in the world?

I’ve actu­ally only been to a few beaches… The beach in San Diego was crowded, dirty and pretty much ghetto — not my first choice. The only other beach I’ve been to are the ones in Rocky Point, Mex­ico. So I’ll have to answer this ques­tion after I’ve trav­eled the world a lit­tle bit more.

 

What’s the next coun­try you want to visit?

Ire­land, hands down, though Ger­many, Bel­gium and Asu­trailia are all pretty evenly tied for second.

 

What one thing are you crav­ing today?

Does peace and quiet count? Or a maid? I am crav­ing a meal that some­one else cooks for me and cleans up after­wards. Or a prime rib from Out­back, I always crave those. Or Honey Hot chicken wings from The Vine. I should prob­a­bly go cook din­ner now.

If you knew that every minute of the next 24 hours of your life would be recorded on cam­era is there any­thing you would change about your habits?

Well, I’d prob­a­bly stop pick­ing my nose… No just kid­ding. Maybe. I might try to kinda spice things up since my life is pretty bor­ing and rep­e­ti­tious. Maybe throw together a flambé’ for the kids’ break­fast and wear fish­nets? I’d be more con­cious about how frizzy my hair is. It’s got­ten kinda uncon­trol­lable lately. Oh and not so much cussing under my breath. Cam­eras catch that kinda stuff don’t they?

If you could take a one-month trip to any sin­gle des­ti­na­tion in the world and money is not a con­sid­er­a­tion, where would you go?

Wow, I really never planned that far ahead. There’s many sin­gle des­ti­na­tions I’d love to go, but for a month? Pos­si­bly Dublin or Prague or Madrid — ya know, the big­ger places that had a months worth of stuff to do. Or a nice lit­tle cot­tage in the mid­dle of nowhere with green as far as the eye can see and a median tem­per­a­ture of about 70.

What is the best exam­ple of “per­fec­tion” that you can think of?

Breast­milk and breast­feed­ing. Seri­ously. Name me one other sub­stance that is so incred­i­bly pow­er­ful that it alone can triple a person’s size, in a healthy way, while nour­ish­ing the brain and pro­mot­ing emo­tional growth and tac­tile stimulus.

Manic Monday for April 29th

Is there any­thing for which you would will­ingly give your life?

Absolutely. My Chil­dren. Enough Said.

How would you com­mu­ni­cate with some­one if you didn’t share a com­mon language?

Lots of wild arm flail­ing and hand ges­tures. Maybe draw­ing. We know quite a bit of Amer­i­can Sign Lan­guage, but that’s Amer­i­can Sign Lan­guage and most likely the said encounter is not tak­ing place in Amer­ica or with a Native-born Amer­i­can so it would be a moot point.

Where is your ideal place/location to have a wedding?

I dunno. I was always one of those lit­tle girls who dreamed of the big per­fect church wed­ding. But church just doesn’t do it for me these days. I’d love a nice out­door wed­ding but that would most likely have to take place out of state which would be expen­sive. Hell, at this point a JP behind a dump­ster would be good, but I keep get­ting the feel­ing that Matt’s stalling on pur­pose. icon sad Manic Monday for April 29th

Manic Monday for April 21st

Who is the black sheep in your family/group?

I think it would prob­a­bly be me, hon­estly. You do really stu­pid things when you’re young with­out think­ing about the effect it has on oth­ers. I don’t talk to much of my fam­ily now, and when I do I always feel an under­ly­ing ten­sion. Maybe that’s all in my head though.

If you were a char­ac­ter from a book, what char­ac­ter would you be?

Hmm… Any book? That’s alot to choose from. For some rea­son Alice from Alice in Won­der­land popped up first — Maybe because I’m lost and con­fused alot. If I could choose the char­ac­ter, maybe one of the elves from Tolkien’s World?

What’s your favorite accent?

I love just about any accent, except for Span­ish ones but I think that’s because I hear it alot here in Ari­zona. I espe­cially melt over Irish, British and Aus­tralian. Cana­dian accents are very nice too.
