I'm not sure how you all feel about these Five Question Fridays. Do you get sick of them? I'm pretty sure you like them better when I'm more off the cuff and honest. I'll do my best. I like to do them because I check out lots of other blogs linked up to the meme, and find some good ones, AND because I'm narcissistic. Sorry.
If you should feel so inclined, you may join in the fun and link up with Mama M. over at My Little Life to play along. Here's a handy button for you:
Alright then, on with the show.
1. If you could speak with a different accent, what would it be (i.e Australian, Scottish)?
I think I'd have to go with British. I have always felt like an English accent makes a person sound smart, even if they are saying stupid things. Ricky Gervais, hello? So, if I could pen this blog with a British accent, you'd all think I was a genius! Anywho - I know that Brits aren't any smarter than other people just because they skip their "r" sounds, but you just go ahead and try to explain that to my subconscious.
2. Can you fall asleep anywhere? (i.e floor, couch, deck)
I was about to say yes, but then there's the deck thrown in there. What kind of nut jobs sleep on decks? Only Mama M's hunk of man, that's who. But as a matter of fact, I hate my mattress so much that sometimes I sleep on the couch. My silly husband insisted on getting one of those memory foam mattresses, and neither of us like it. The funny thing is that when there's only one of us on the bed, it's about a hundred times more comfortable. I don't understand that, but my husband understands that he has forfeited any future rights to be involved in mattress selection.
3. Do you use public restrooms? If so, do you sit on the toilet?
I'm generally a squatter in public restrooms. I can practically pee standing up, and never so much as a drop on the seat. But as a general rule, I avoid public restrooms whenever possible. Especially the ones at Wal-Mart. And that's tricky because Wal-Mart gives me diarrhea. It's a weird phenomenon, but I'm sure it happens to other people, too.
4. If you were stuck in an elevator for 24 hours, what celebrity would you most want to be stuck with?
This ones tough - there's so many ways you could go. How about Ellen DeGeneres to keep you laughing in a stressful situation, or Michael Buble to soothe you with his songs? But I have to say that after watching The Office tonight - I'd need to be stuck in an elevator with Dwight Shrute, because it's sheer brilliance to establish a pee corner right off the bat. I mean, that's your basic necessity right there.
5. Where did you & your significant other go on your 1st date?
We went mini-golfing, after which my husband got grounded, (hello?), because he took me on a date before I was technically 16. We Mormons are serious about our dating rules.
See ya'll again soon!
I avoid public restrooms like the plague. Or at least I try to, but it seems like as soon as I walk into a store or something, my bladder's all "uh-oh".
ReplyDeleteI'm so impressed you can pee practically standing up. Did all your boys motivate you to learn that trick? :)
I also think that Dwight Schrute might be able to find a way out of the elevator for you. Although I did not see last night's episode, so I could be wrong.
ReplyDeleteYou're right, the Brits sound smart. But, the Jamaicans sound fun, that's an accent I'd like to take for a spin mon! I can sleep anywhere. I was once asleep out on the porch and thought I heard Sam running on the deck towards me. I opened my eyes and there was a goat right in my face. Disturbing!
ReplyDeleteI fell asleep on a float in the ocean once and floated past the pier and had to be awakened by the lifeguard. I can sleep anywhere! Except in a car. Because I have to drive. And thankfully, I have enough sense not to nap as I drive.
Talk about narcissism, I made this all about me! lol
Brits to sound smart!! That's funny - I always say the same thing!
ReplyDeleteElevator? George Clooney.
That is all...
I don't know...I'd have to go with Andy Bernard. That man is a singing-dancing genius. I mean, starting off with him singing off the elevator. Loved it. But the pee corner is a good move. And I'm very impressed with your squatting abilities. My quads resist all attempts at strengthening exercises.
ReplyDeletei about died when i saw The Office after my stuck-in-an-elevator post.
ReplyDeleteput peeing in public restrooms = squatting for me.

I like that you do this. As I was constructing my eight thinger yesterday, I kept thinking "I wish I could think of cool questions like I see on Bethany's blog". Ehh. Oh well. That and I didn't include you because I counted on you doing this. You never fail me.
ReplyDeleteDiarrhea. In the woods. When the outhouse is a mile hike away. Never fails.
I think my wife wishes I spoke with a British accent.
ReplyDelete" Especially the ones at Wal-Mart. And that's tricky because Wal-Mart gives me diarrhea. It's a weird phenomenon, but I'm sure it happens to other people, too." It's true. I think Walmart may be a giant laxative disguised as a store. The prices aren't the only thing falling.
