This is the most selfish thing I’ve done since I bought the kids and me Chinese food then, without asking, ate their leftovers while they slept.
It was midnight and I was starving. Relatedly, this pms-opause is trying to kill me . Makes me do crazy things. Here it is my blog’s social Friday, and it’s all about me. Pass the morphine, it’s gonna be a very long five years. God, it’s hot in here.
Stolen from Average Jane who stole it from Headless Mom who swiped it from some other blogs I don’t read. Originally 30 questions, I’m answering 10. No one is gonna read the answers to 30 questions on a Friday.
It’s 2AM and you are not home. You are more than likely:
In a morgue or sleepwalking in search of an all-nite diner and some soft scrambled eggs. I lead the most boring life ever cobbled together. I am always home at 2 a.m.
What’s the last thing you spent more than $100 on?
Groceries. Rent. Auto maintenance. Insurance premiums. Cell phone bill. DirecTV bill. Um, lessee, packers and movers. Better question? The last thing I haven’t spent more than $100 on.
What do your bank checks look like?
Pink with drawings of handbags and shoes in the background. I get lots of compliments on them.
Where did the shirt you are currently wearing come from?
It’s midnight. I’m “dressed” for bed.
Name something that will be on your Christmas wish list:
Something from Apple. Probably iPhone 4
What color is your toothbrush?
White with orange accents. Came in a four-pack. I let Jordan have the pink, JA the green, the blue disappeared in a haze of grocery unpacking confusion.
Name something you collect and tell us about it.
Excuses, mainly. I have a million of them.
What was the last restaurant you ate in? Who were you with? How was it?
A Vietnamese restaurant near my job while I was getting my oil changed during lunch. I was on the phone with Q. It was yummy, especially the cà phê sữa đá (iced coffee).
Who was the last person you bought a birthday card for?
Maybe Ehren. If I forgot to buy him a card, then the person before that would be me. The kids picked out my birthday loot with my money.
What is your worst bad habit?
Pulling out my hair when I’m stressed. Skipping meals when I’m stressed. Not drinking water. The list goes on, really.
Happy Friday, everybody. Any weekend plans? Living vicariously through your comments…
Thanks for the list, I’m totally swiping it for tomorrow’s post!
My weekend will consist of- work on Saturday and visiting the Dads on Sunday.
We’ve also gotten several invites for grad parties, but hoping a card in the mail will be a good enough substitute for our presence. Isn’t it funny how people that don’t even send you a Christmas card, have no problem remembering your addy for grad parties? Hmm.
I learned long ago the graduation cards are gift solicitations. Kids I haven’t heard from since they were in third grade suddenly want me at their graduation? Yeah, right.
Good thing I read the comments or I would have forgotten a grad gift that’s a week overdue. Next 10 questions nest week?
Yes! The next 10 questions next week. Great idea. Happy grad gift shopping!
Hey, I just ate my kids leftover chicken legs for lunch. My weekend plans are: To do lots of laundry, Make my middle child feel guilty for ruining everyone’s summer vacation with summer school because she took a vacation 2cd. semester. And probably eating most of my husband’s Fathers Day brownies. Geez, it’s hot in here too…
Argh. Summer school. Yay brownies! Ruining our lives for five years isn’t gonna convince us to have another baby, so why is Mother Nature doing this to us?
Were you at Pho Vang off 290 and Tidwell? LOVE that place!
If it’s the one by Sonic, Taco Bell and the lube place, then yes! Yum!
lol love the list and love that you picked 10. were they your favorite 10, at least?! *guilty* for eating kids’ leftovers. they just started remembering all about their leftovers the morning after recently. but really what midnight snack is yummier?! fun little gems, thanks!
I just picked the first 10 on the list. I’ll answer the other 20 eventually. The copy/pasting was killing me…
I love that you “collect excuses”. And if anyone leaves leftover chinese, it’s up for grabs, sometimes it is impossible to control the urge to eat leftover chinese. IMPOSSIBLE.
A Morning Grouch is dying for you to read Izzint Bloggeen Grate?
I love that you dive into comments on posts that are 18 months old. That’s awesome! I try to be respectful of the kids’ leftovers, but sometimes, I take the “I paid for it” route. Ha.
