Winter boredom buster....

Re: Winter boredom buster....

What's your biggest pet peeve?

When people tell me I have to do something. As in, "You have to buy a new house," "You have to have at least 2 kids," "You have to have lots of property," "You have to have at least 1 SUV," "You have to do whatever it is I did, so I can justify my choices."

I wish people would just voice these opinions as they are, just opinions and not rules set in stone. I admit that I'm guilty of doing this myself but not when it comes to life altering decision or big purchases, more along the lines of, "If you go to X restaurant, you have to try their salmon," or "You have to give stylish shoes at least one chance."

And to answer Pollyanna's question, my favorite at home meals involves good company, a great bottle of wine and a new recipe that came out great on the first try.


If you had the means, would you spend $200+ on a pair of jeans that would slim you down in all the right places and make you look 10 pounds lighter and 10 years younger? Or would you rather spend that money on improving yourself from the neck up and get Botox?

I'd take the $200 and hire my trainer for four more hours.

What's the next question? :huh:

Re: Winter boredom buster....

If you had to pick, would you rather live on a 4000 acre farm in North Dakota or a 400 square foot apartment in Manhattan?

Dolphins. I have a tatoo of 3 of them on my back and DH took me to swim with them a few years ago.

In HS it was AP European History in college - post-Soviet Russian lit.

What is your favorite season and why?

Re: Winter boredom buster....

Favorite Season is summer time! I love the heat and being outdoors. All the sunshine lifts my spirits.

As for Mickey Mouse or Donald Duck, that's tough I really like them both. I think as a kid I liked Donald better, but as an adult, I like Mickey. I like Minney Mouse better than both though!

Ok since I'm thinking Disney, what's your favorite Disney movie and why?

I grew up with two siblings, and I am the oldest. Shocking, I know.

Re: Winter boredom buster....

I have always HATED brussel sprouts until this year. Thanks to Suz / pinkpickles I now actually like them.

If you had to choose, would you have dogs or cats?

[DCJenn]

Re: Winter boredom buster....

Growing up a was in a single cat household. Now that I have two of each I can't pick. Petey and I have a relationship that is beyond disgusting. I love, love, LOVE my dog. I brush his teeth and give him baths with shampoo that costs twice what I pay for my shampoo. He and I have talks and he 'gets' me. (He's a Democrat by the way. Honey? We're not so sure. She may be a Ron Paul supporter)

My kitties are fab- Darla and Trouble are snuggly kitties and there is nothing like a kittie purr to put me to sleep. Darla and I have been through a lot. She's the only one who has moved with me every single time. She's an ass, too and I love her for it.

I can't pick. Generally, I'd say cats more than dogs but Petey? He's my true doggie love.

Oh the question- what is the subject of your sit up at night in a cold sweat nightmare?

Last year for some reason I was having dreams where I was at the funerals of people I knew. I would wake up crying and hysterical.

What is your favorite city to visit or one you lived in and why??

NY will always be my first and only true love (at least as far as cities are concerned). DH have traveled extensively and as much as we like our local local, NY will always be the best city on Earth to us. NY has a little of everything and can satisfy any kind of craving 24/7, no other place can possibly compare.

I still have my volleball sweatshirt from college. It's so old, my maiden name has been erased from the back. I keep it because it's so comfy.


Lets pretend you can act. What part, past or present would you LOVE to play?
