It’s time for another edition of Thursday Thunks, and I’m giving myself an extra pat on the back for remembering it yet again this week! Maybe I’m not going crazy after all!
The TT questions are brought to you by Bud, the color of my neighbor’s wife’s eyes and the number 33,333.
1. Would you rather have a pet hippo or a pet elephant? A hippo because hippos are just way cooler.
2. Why do you think bananas are shaped the way they are? To make us ask questions like this one.
3. In one word (OK, you can go three to four MAX) , what do most people describe you as? loquacious!
4. Choice (stupid but a choice…): Loss of vision, ability to speak or hearing – which do you choose? (you have to choose one….) It’s like a law. But we can’t make you. Hmmm that’s a hard one. I’m going to choose the ability to speak. I want to watch my little girl grow up with my own two eyes, and I want to here her the first time she says “Mommy, I love you!”, but I can communicate without words coming out of my mouth.
5. Do you like lemons? Do you use them to clean with or just as a food source? Or are you saving them up for 2012? I eat them, but I don’t clean with them. I’m not a fan of their scent.
6. When you are feeling icky with that sickness feeling, what is your first choice for feel-better medicine? A hot cup of herbal tea. It’s my go to cure for almost everything.
7. You are starving. You have not had anything to eat for days. In front of you is poison ivy, a live hissing cockroach, and a rotten stinky piece of some sort of mystery meat to eat. Which would you pick and why? The cockroach. It may be icky and hissing, but it’s a great source of protein! Besides, if I don’t eat the nasty little bugger it’ll live forever.
8. Who was the last person you bought a present for? What was it? Will you buy Berleen one? I bought the little one a new sippy cup and a pair of PJs today. She could care less about the PJs as she’d prefer to run around naked, but she got so excited about the sippy cup and refused to put it down until I wrangled it away from her at bedtime. I’d gladly buy Berleen a sippy cup if she’s into that sort of thing.
9. Name 3 things you want your kids to learn before they grow up. (If you don’t have kids, feel free to explain to the other players why you chose the “no kids“ choice. Yea. I know. (Those who have children will NEVER get it. And no, don‘t explain it…) Wow, this list could go on forever. I’m living the parenting life day by day, so let’s just stick with the basics. I want her to learn that she can talk to me about anything, no matter what it is. I want her to learn to make her own decisions when it comes to her beliefs, and I want her to learn that following the golden rule really does make a difference in your life.
10. What was your favorite toy as a child? What happened to it? I never had one particular favorite toy, but it would be a toss up between my cabbage patch dolls and my rainbow brite doll. I still have all of them.
11. If you could paint your house ANY color you wanted and your friends, family & neighbors would love the color from the moment they saw it, what would it be? Clemson Orange!
12. If the Pillsbury Dough Boy got into a fight with Mrs. Butterworth who would win? And would anybody get hurt? And do we seem desperate even asking? Mrs. Butterworth would totally kick Pillsbury Dough Boy’s butt because she’s totally badass. Dough boy would probably run home crying to his Mommy, but I’m sure Mrs. Butterworth would be too classy to physically harm him.
13. What was the last thing you would guess that Kimber took a picture of? Oh. And consider the meme listed below. Click on it. It rocks. I’m going to say herself.
