Five Question Friday: March 4th, 2011


1. Have you ever forgotten your child in a store or at school?

No. But I have left my child with someone (my sister, husband, et cetera), forgotten that my child was no longer in the van with me, and had a mini-heart-attack when I've turned to say something to them and realized that they weren't there!

2. Where did you go on your very first date? (Like...first first, not first with your spouse or current significant other!)

I went to Lilliput (a miniature golf course) with a beautiful boy when we were in the 5th grade. Afterwards, we took a walk in my backyard holding hands and talking about our favorite songs (his was Paperback Writer by the Beatles) and then we went inside and watched Crocodile Dundee with my little sisters. I got really mad at my middle sister because she insisted on sitting in his lap (he really was cute, and my sister knew that she was just young enough to get away with it-she's no dummy!)

3. What's your "silly" fear? (We're not talking water and heights.)

White spiders. A spider of any other color can crawl on my face for all I care...tarantula? No problem. But if it's a white one my skin crawls and I scream like I'm, oh... maybe 5? (And) then someone has to come and save me!

4. Confrontation: do you cause it, deal with it as it comes, or run far far away?

Take it as it comes, baby. "Baby steps. Baby steps to the car..."

5. Wood floors or carpet?

I would looove hardwood floors, because that is what I grew up with (but unfortunately, for now, I have carpeting, and even worse, LOTS of ceramic tiling.)
